Weird background problems

[Marku]

Ever since ive had my new graphics card(Geforce4 MX 440) the backgrounds(skys) in ESF have been really weird and random bright colors or images of the model im playing as(the skin looked like it was in a skin making program kind of thing, all flat and spaced out)

Are there any patches for HL or a command to disable or get rid of the problem? Everything else in the game is fine, kami lookout is hardest to play on with all the bright colors.

This is a known problem, the suggested solution is to try using OpenGL for video. If that doesn't work, then reinstall ESF. This problem most often occurs when ESF is run in Direct3D.

I think i tried open gl and it said my graphics card doesnt support it, which is strange for A latest graphics card!

hmm, indeed it is, try to getthe latest drivers, that could solve the openGl case.

Now to check of it realy does support look on the cover box of your video card, it should say something like OpenGl 1.4 support.
