Patch problems!!! Egads!

[cereal]

Ok, I haven't played in a few days, so I got all excited to hear about a big patch today! So, I decide to play. And boy howdy did something go wrong!
1. My video and audio menus in the options are all screwed up and jumbled up and unusable
2. My fiveseven has somekind of purple stuff around it, maybe its like a plasma shield thing!
3. All of my bullet holes (on bricks) are white square things. Knife marks on bricks are fine, and bullet holes are fine on most other surfaces(except for the tire and sand). They blink sometimes too, and some are blue! Yay!
Voila! A picture

Was fine beofre, I have a evga 6800 ultra

Buy a new computer.

 

[smsKONG]

LOL

I hope this doesn't happen to me

By the way even tho your copy ain't exactly running at it's best....have those damn hitboxes really been sorted???

 

[seinfeldrules]

Yeah, I've played and the hitboxes seem much better. Maybe that was just because I was getting more kills, but still...

Looks like the brightness menu is broken,
which sucks as my levels were reset.
I can't find a console command to change it, either... mwahaha ;(.

it also takes a solid 10-15 seconds longer
than usual to get the main menu up.
I'm not complaining, just reporting.

Someone was saying they could see reflections of other
players in their arms?! Heh.

My machine:

AMD 2500+
512MB PC3200 RAM
ATi Radeon 9600XT (built by, yippee).

Everything was fine before the update! Well, except skywalking
and the other ~15 bugs they mentioned, heh.

Buy a new computer??? Are you kididng me???
AMD Athlon XP 3200+
eVGA 6800 ultra
1 gig of ram
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 zs Platinum

If I can run doom 3 on ultra fine, and this used to be fine on everything highest, I think not

 

[Shuzer]

Yep. I had this same problem, too.
Just reboot CS, fixed it for me.

 

[cereal]

Yeah me too, I'm fine now thanks
