Hi,I have a problem with ESF.
When I fly or charge up,the energy field around me doesn't apppear :( :


(Also,the graphics are not good in this map,and the menu is like the version I played some years ago but I have the newest version.And when I play it at the Internet Cafe it has a Different one and CAN transform to Super Sayan 2 and 3 :shocked: .Alos,energy fields appear.)

Also,some attacks are problematic.Ex. The shield,when I use it,it doesn't appear and when I let go of the attack button it appears O_O :



What should I do?

Is your renderer mode set to OpenGL? The energy field (known as the turbo aura) only shows when you swoop (you swoop by pressing a direction key twice) or if you press "t".

If you go to your options in ESF, there will be a drop down box with text above it that says "Renderer Mode". If OpenGL isn't selected, then you should select it.

OpenGL is just a graphics renderer that's more stable than Software and D3D mode.

No. That's the old version. The new version is 1.2 (plus the patches). The newer version only works on Steam.

Do you run ESF through Steam? There should be an icon in your games list that says Earth's Special Forces.

Oh,it works now.
But is this the menu of the new version?:
Whoa, it's been incredibly long since I've seen the menu for ESF 1.1

Thanks for the memories, mate.

Switching to OpenGL should solve your problem, in theory. If it doesn't, your installation may be corrupt. IF switching to OpenGL fails, simply try re-downloading the installer, and re-installing ESF. Make sure you're running version 1.2.3 of ESF, as version 1.1 isn't strongly compatible with Steam.

Alright. When you install ESF, you need to install it to your Half-Life directory in your SteamApps folder.

The above is true as well. The ESF 1.2.3 installer should automatically point to the right directory. So my question is: Did you install ESF before or after you installed Steam? If you installed it before Steam, you should re-run the installer for ESF 1.2.3.

You need Half-Life, not Half-Life 2. When you have Steam opened, you can register your Half-Life CD-Key which will allow Steam to download Half-Life off of the server. You have to wait until it finishes downloading and updating. You need to run Half-Life once before you are able to install ESF.

If you already have Half-Life installed somewhere else other than Steam, uninstall it. When you register the CD-key through Steam, you don't need to install Half-Life since Steam will download it off of it's server.
