Title: [ISSUE] Screwy Graphics
Post by: [Rhymenoceros] on February 13, 2009, 07:32:19 am
AHHHHHH! Look at what GE:S has done to my computer!     jk lol  ;)
These errors occur in ALL of my Source games now.
They never used to.

Strange lines pointing to origin of map:
ge_egyptian0000, 0002, 0003, 0004, 0008, 0013

Weird triangular faces where they shouldn't be:
ge_egyptian0001, 0005, 0006, 0014

Then there's the fact that my stupid health meter doesn't work: (always shows full armor and health)
ge_egyptian0007

But the weird lines can be helpful: (wallhax lol)
ge_egyptian0009, 0010, 0011, 0012

Plus, you can notice that in all pics, the text (in the top left and in chat) is ALL white! (It's this way now in CS:S as well)

Something probably with my graphics card, but this had never happened before.
Note: my graphics card won't run Source games in DirectX 9, so I use 8.1

Try newer drivers if that fails Your graphics card is probably on its way out.

That usually happens to overclocked / overheated graphics cards... be prepared to not be able to start your computer soon

Yeah that's what I said...
and now it's worse, the screwy lines come from my hands/the weapons I'm holding, too!
And the lines block my vision! (especially with big guns in TF2)
It's like a mutating disease that keeps getting worse!
I couldn't use exclamation marks any more!

I have an old GeForce 7300 GT.  That's most likely the problem.

But I just started getting these errors!!!  :-\

I have the newest drivers from nVidia.

HA! my old graphics card did 8 FPS in CS:S! (GeForce 2 series)

*gulp*

Does this happen even if you just started the Computer and joined a game, or does it take a while till these errors occure?
Something similar (but even worser graphical glitches) once happened to me with my old GF6600GT.
It was overheating coz of a malfunction of the fan.
Anyway i bought a new card (and a new power supply coz the old one had not enought power to run the new card) and the problem was gone.

It occurs even when I just startup.
And I would give CS:S screens where the problems are 10X worse (even with models discoloured) but: A, I'm too lazy; and B, they don't belong on the GE:S forums.
Yeah I have 100 bucks laying around but I'm currently saving up for a decent laptop.
And then I'm buying a new trombone...
