Title: Explosion Marks are Squares
Post by: terps4life90 on October 02, 2011, 10:07:38 pm: For some odd reason, first time it happen to me, i joined a wnx server, and started playing and i happen to notice that all the explosion marks were squares lol :D I'm not really sure why though. Here are some screen shots.

That is a new one for me. I assume you have done the basic restart, and re-downloading the materials folder?

Similar stuff happens to me once in a while in different games.
