Title: Graphics Issue ! Post by: BlueBoy on February 27, 2013, 09:50:06 AM Yesterday, I had 2 OA clients running so I could be on 2 servers at same time, then I decided to change my name with Q3 Name Changer, and I decided to close both clients while changing the name,
when I opened OA using the new name, my OA settings have changed.. Resolution, sensitivity, shadows, depth (in game) and GRAPHICS ! Graphic textures have changed with some reason.. I have auto download on, but entering different servers hasn't fixed my textures... Luckily when playing Single Player I don't have the issue so I could take screenshots of what the map should look like, and what it looks like for me.. What it should look like What it looks like (http://i.imgur.com/yvM7BOd.png)(http://i.imgur.com/LcWmivm.png) (http://i.imgur.com/XNQvzmH.png)(http://i.imgur.com/SQMq8g4.png) (http://i.imgur.com/sYIQoXm.png)(http://i.imgur.com/8Ryq3PG.png) (http://i.imgur.com/trIffKI.png)(http://i.imgur.com/RVc7N19.png) So I was wondering what caused this issue, and is there a way to fix it other than re-installing the game?

Post by: BlueBoy on February 28, 2013, 07:56:24 AM Almost looks like something forced vertexlighting on you Is it possible that a server admin can force vertexlighting on me ? Title: Re: Graphics Issue ! Post by: Gig on February 28, 2013, 08:35:02 AM I know he can force you do to NOT use Vertex Lighting, and that you can set it to auto re-enable when later joining a server that allows to use it. I don't know about the opposite.

Who knows! A strange thing is that, after you get some weird third-party pk3 file through autodownload, it is more likely to experience strange effects while playing locally than when playing online.
