I personally made it little brighter -- from 1.8 (default) to 1.5. But it is, nevertheless, too dark underground.

Since December 28, gamma now works the other way around, so now 3 is the brightest it can get (previously 1 was the brightest setting I believe): https://github.com/minetest/minetest/commit/094a5a73d3b9817d07c52754749f0828c4005b8c Just something to keep in mind if you update MT to a later version.
Sergey wrote:It is interesting why not making human-readable scale from 0 to 100? Like percent. 0 -- darkest, 100 -- brightest. Why remembering values like 1.0 and 3.0, and what is bright and what is dark (or vice versa)?
Sergey wrote:Are there any tests to find out whether gamma is set right?
I mean someting like this.
In complele darkness (dig under ground 3 blocks deep and cover the hole with dirt block) set torch under yourself (on floor) and then dig in any direction. How many block away from the torch can I distinguish the block on front of me (dirt, stone, ore in stone,...)?

I did the same :-)

And, have you tested your monitor's calibration with the test image?
Sergey wrote:What should I do? Compare black-white stripes on left with gray fields on right? And what must be the result of that comparison? How can I estimate approx. equality if brightness visually?
