You can change gamma in-game via the console.
Type "gamma 1.0", etc.

Changing the gamma outside the normal limits results in some pretty wonky coloration. Dark spots become grey while bright spots turn fluorescent green.
Has anyone else had problems like this? Could it be a hardware issue? My videocard is an Nvidia Geforce 9600 GT, if that makes any kind of difference.

Heh, feel kind of dumb now. I applied the DDfix and everything is good.
So if you've got this problem, DDfix it.

DDFix aside, it might also be worth checking the monitor driver.
For normal use, using a generic windows driver will work fine, but I recently came in possession of a monitor that was impossible to setup right in the dark ranges using hardware or software settings. That is, until I installed the correct driver.

actually i have this damned problem.
and i wondering how in the hell to solve it.
the worst of the thing is that the briefing and cutscene clips are totally dark, if i try to ctrl+tab and change the gamma values with the catalyst control center once back in the game the clips is skipped. So i can never see clips during the game.
and every time i read something in game i am forced to switch to the CCC and set the correct gamma, everytime.

If you have the latest ddfix:
open the file "cam_ext.cfg" in notepad, search for this section:
[CENTER]"; by default it will try to use an enhanced 32-bit precision display mode, if the driver supports it, but
; there may be instances (like with integrated intel GPUs) where the driver does support it but it may not
; work correctly (such as gamma not working), this option will disable the use of enhanced precision
;d3d_disp_no_rgb10_buf"[/CENTER]
remove the ";" infront of "d3d_disp_no_rgb10_buf" and then save the file, that ought to enable the gamma to be changed in the Thief 2 settings menu.

you are replying to a three year old topic, therefore recommending a fix that did not exist at that time, and mistaking NewDark for DDfix.
this is almost worth of a price of some sort.
