Hi sorry for the delayed response, I see you closed the issue but felt you should have your questions answered.

Since you are coming from DarkPlaces, you can keep the configs in your id1 folder if you have them there already and just run in console exec example.cfg. You may experience side effects since there are some differences between the engines as not every CVAR (setting) will be identical. When you save your config (either in the menu or cfg_save in console) FTE will generally store a new unique config file called fte.cfg in a folder alongside id1 called fteq1. To see what directories are being read or written to just type path in console.

This could be caused by the default gamma compatibility behavior for older hardware. Try setting in console vid_hardwaregamma 2 and see if it fixes the issue.

Hope that was helpful.
