Overbrights is a bit of misnomer for this, as it's actually RGB scaling. I later renamed this option from Vic's code. Real overbright bits are used in the Quake3 engine, you can see this in the Q3 and RtCW sources. It actually involves bit shifting of the color values in textures and lightmaps.

KMQuake2 isn't dead, I'm still working on it
It's just currently orphaned and needs a new home.

Yep, my model rendering code is a complete rewrite. It's actually indexed array-based md3 rendering code with the md2's loaded into a md3 structure, so there's no duplicate coding of rendering features for md2 and md3.
