Inferno graphic problem!!

[Underhill[FIN]]

When i go to play map de_inferno i get some wierd graphic bugs. For example some of the walls are full of differend colours and so on. And when i but my flash light on everything changes purple and blue. Also when i pic gun in ground it is fll of these coulours. I have tried low graphics but it doesent help. I have updated my graphic card drivers, but i still got this. Other maps work fine. What is this only inferno gives this graphic error...

Hope you understand what i wrote.

Try deleting the map and letting Steam redownload it. It may be corrupt :thumbs:

First do what he said.

Also, do the validate thing, dont have the urls at hand though.

I assume u disabled antialising? That gave me pink textures...

What hardware have you got?

And I did do droped that antiliasing off. Didnt help.

your not the only one...
wtf?
wtfx2?
This is supposed to be a flashlight?
I've already tried steam validating, it didn't work.
My specs:
athlon 2500+
ATI 9600xt 256MB
1024MB corsair RAM

And it only happens on Inferno. Maybe it's just too detailed for my comp?

Yup, those pictures are similar than mine. Valve should fix that problem..

It's a very demanding map, but I think this sounds a bit odd. It runs fine on my system, but the fps sometimes drop to 30...
p4-3.2 GHx
2GB ram
6800 ULTRA..
1600*1200
4x AF
2x AA
They have really stuffed this map

(I thought I'd post in this thread instead of making a new one since the similarities.)

I'm having a problem with the dust maps. You know how when you look up into the sky, you're supposed to get more FPS? On the dust maps only, it's the complete opposite. Whenever I even try to look at least even with the person in front of me, my FPS goes to 1 and my ping soars (500+). But when I look down completely at the group, it's fine.

But when I go into the "inside" parts of the dust maps, i.e. the tunnels, it's fine, I can look anywhere I want... so it can't be the spec lighting... heh, since I have it off already.

Any suggestions?

Guys the checkerboard problem is due to missing or corrupt cube maps in the map. I had the same thing. It seemed to be related to the fact that I had another remake of inferno there already, so when I went to join a server it said 'different map version' or whatever. I deleted the other copy and steam redownloaded the official version but the cubemaps are missing. (Cubemaps are renders of the scene from different points in the map which are then applied to reflective surfaces). I could see black and purple checkerboard patterns overlaid on every shiny thing, which was a little distracting. But a simple restart seemed to fix the problem. I didn't try the flashlight, but I imagine the problem is related. I did try the buildcubemaps console command but it said inferno was read_only.

The map is stored within the gcf file, I think, so it isn't easy to mess around with. Can't think of much else you can try except buildcubemaps and restarting, since that somehow worked for me...

Oh and it's got nothing to do with the map being too detailed or anything. Just a bug with getting the cubemaps with the map. Deleting your counter-strike gcf and redownloading it will fix it, if you can be bothered, or just borrow a friends. Still, it's probably quicker to download than to borrow, in my experience.
