Teleporters don't look proper

[Gray Fox]

When a teleporter is ready to teleport it should have a much more whiter vivid glow.
this happened when I got my new VGA card the 880gt, my previous was the 7900 gs.

 

[Iron_cube]

Uh.

No, not at all.

Were you playing with DX8 on your older card? That could be the reason why it looks bizarre to you.

 

[-Psy-]

lol wut.

 

[Pesmerga]

Hmm, I have noticed that the teleporter glow color changed when I popped in my 8600gt > Originally had a 7600gts.

 

[Gray Fox]

to illustrate my point look at the teleporters in these video's

Thease are blue teleporters, but as you can see whee the teleportrer is ready to teleport they glow much more brightly, almost white.

Perhaps an update changed the colors? Or may be the effect of upped settings such as extra high textures.

 

[Gray Fox]

I tried playing with AA, AF, color correction, motionblur and HDR off and it was still like that.
But never tried textures.

The thing is the only difference with this new cards is that I get the option of 16q csaa,
which I naturally turned on, but I guess thats not what is causing it.
Oh and there is the enormous FPS boost.

 

[Solaris]

That big a deal?

'Waaa my teleporterz is the wrong colour'

 

[Gray Fox]

**** me I forgot I installed beta drivers, it's the 169.44
That's probably causing this.

 

[LackingSaint]

Does it matter? Will it REALLY affect the gaming experience?

 

[Pesmerga]

Is it true you REALLY suck penis?

 

[LackingSaint]

Is it true you REALLY suck penis?

Really, uncalled for. I could try and retort, but i'd rather not make a flame fest. Just grow up.

This is what they look like for me with an Nvidia card on max settings

Funny thing is I know what you are talking about, maybe the white glow was on my old computer.

 

[Naph]

Isn't stepping on one going to cut off your foot?

 

[LackingSaint]

It's interesting to see how in a world where Soldiers wear out of date clothing from pre-Vietnam, there's holographic teleporters.

Artistic license, I guess.

 

[soulslicer]

Mine keeps switching actually. Sometimes it's co loured, some times it's not, it depends on the distance at which I view it from.

 

[Mahalis]

The white glow builds up over time. The longer it's been since a teleporter was used, the brighter the glow. I find it really hard to believe that nobody else has noticed this.

This is actually not true at all. You have two phases of teleporter glowiness- unlit and ****ING LIT.

I have the latest nvidia beta drivers yet this problem remains unresolved.

It doesn't make a difference in the game, really, but it is interesting to note, as it may infer other problems. I have a 7800GTX, and I haven't noticed this. (Forceware 163.71)




...it was fully charged, right?

 

[Operational]

Even fully charged, for me at least, it isn't that bright.

 

[Omnomnick]

If you look during the old Team Fortress 2 Trailers, you see an engineer use a teleporter while taunting and he leaves behind a sort of blurry outline of himself which then fades away. A TF2 update a while back actually made this happen, and I think it looks neat, maybe that update changed how the teleporters look as well

I am fully charged.
