Has anyone seen this? [NOT a spoiler]

[Ghoti]

Take a look at this. Am I missing any options?

Reinstalling did no good. Has anyone else seen anything like this?

looks like something from thel eak, but i aint saying ne thing, just reinstall

 

[Ghoti]

From the leak? Hardly, I preloaded via Steam and purchased via Steam. Never touched the leak. And, as I've said in my original post, I did try reinstalling (thankfully, I didn't get the 'Servers are too busy' message). I submitted a support request which has thus far been unanswered, I was just wondering if anyone else has seen anything like this and which options should be where the odd punctuation is, if any.

Looks cool...

You probably need to delete the half-life 2/hl2 folder (the hl2 one). That will remove the menu files and everything else. It will then get them from the cache again. Hopefully it will work.

Thanks, I'll try that when I get home.

I had a weird thing in there when I first played. There were 2 or 3 lines at the bottom, like yours, and they were all weird text. Can hardly remember what it said now, but a < and > symbols and maybe something saying "shift"?

Dunno, but I had weird things there at first, but ever since that 1st time I loaded it they haven't been there.

 

[Parasite]

I had something similar to what Lanth describes.

 

[Ghoti]

They've been there on my menu since HL2 was first unlocked. Even after a reinstall.

I've also had a few extra on the key list... I bound one of them and unlocked one of Gordon's uber secret special powers...

 

[DrkBlueXG]

mine also had an extra mystery key. I used it and found out that it makes gordan talk and taunt the enemy.

 

[Ghoti]

Somehow, I find myself doubting the previous two posters' words.

 

[Sainku]

I also had weird looking text at the bottom of the controls, but mine didnt do any cool things like the previous two posters.

 

[Ownzed]

Hasn't happened to me..

 

[bgesley426]

I have had that problem too, and in CS:Source (or at least the Beta)

 

[vocalvoodo]

I had some of those keys too. The ">" when bound made Gordon pee on the side of walls. Very cool for the realism factor. Thanks VALVe!!!

 

[Calm_Blue_Ocean]

Yup, same thing here. I assumed they were placeholders for binding more functions (for future releases or mods). I have not actually tried using one of them however.

I had one that was : P as in the smilie but it did nothing. Shame really.
