How it should look and looks like while the games loading- https://imgur.com/HeC3DoQ
How it looks on the main menu- https://imgur.com/a/svhwc

No idea why it's happening. This also happens when using other backgrounds and even the map_Background function. They're all darker on the menu than they should be. Nothing else in the game is abnormally dark either. Not to mention, this was happening before I installed the 2007 menu, and I don't think I have any huds installed.

I think that that's just how the main menu looks. I have the same darker background and I have mat_monitorgamma 1.6. I think the main menu probably just has a semi transparent overlay that darkens it.

What he said. Ever since the Jungle Inferno update(I think) they added a semi-transparent overlay to the menu which is why the console doesn't (always) work as well as other things. Some HUDs I think managed to change the size of that though but maybe it's just another semi-transparent layer.

Since Jungle Inferno, everything that goes to the background or has a layer on top of it gets a bit darker, kinda to show it's not focused. That's just how it is.

The question is how would I go about removing this?

For the time being, I think it's hard-coded.
