I had the same problem with my Radeon 2600 HD, and I found that "fog_override 1" pretty much fixed it up, except for some occasional water fog. You can get rid of that too with another command, (can't remember it atm... just do a "find fog") but that removes all fog in water, so personally I...

I actually found a server full of idiots once, and I had a backstabbing bonanza! I only got to 3 though before I grabbed the flag and then got flamed... What disguise you use is just about always relative to where you want to go and what you wanna do. Therefore, scouts are useless disguises...

That would make sense with Kleiner's desire to "use" the Borealis. He *did* refer to Aperture Science as "peers" rather than rivals, although the terms are interchangeable I guess... Or it's just an easter egg... And the other clipboard... it's a chicken. Fried chicken cake.

edit: wrong post in wrong section... can a mod remove this please?

We ARE still talking about the advanced level, aren't we? The one with the metal ceiling, so you can't do an infinite fall? I can get to the turret room without difficulty, but moving on from there is damn hard. I tried taking out the turrets, but I either can't make the jump, or get shot...

My issue still remains: The password I have is as long as a wet week, and as obscure as these references, but still my account has (possibly) been compromised. Great advice for anyone reading this though. Does anyone know of maybe a known program, or list thereof, that can have a negative...

Yes, I have read that FAQ, and I made it clear in the post on steam forums that I had. I was asking to see if there was another avenue to take, or some way to make an appeal. I didn't keep a copy of my post on the forums, but it was based on my support request I sent off. After some more...

I've seen that before, especially in mods with custom made leaf textures. Makes it look like it's been wrapped in cling wrap. As far as I know its just some buggy transparency that reflects light the wrong way. Especially under the flashlight. Haven't had that issue with the episodes though...

That system of yours seems almost perfect for running Episode 2. It may be a local glitch with some compatibility with a new feature of episode 2 and your system software. Try perusing your video card settings (if you have any) and see if modifying those have any effect. I'm not familiar with...

So I've lost CS: S and HL2: DM, anybody have any suggestions how to prevent this happening again? (Assuming that I would fork out for another Valve product ever again...) I've given up on hoping for a response from Valve. I followed the procedure for posting a query by giving proof of purchase...

It's all fair that you may assume that (although I'm quite insulted)I may be someone pretending I don't cheat, but I wasn't even playing any online games for a period of a number of months when I was banned. And just for the record, I don't know how to cheat even if I wanted to, which also -...

I also recommend the 7600, although I've got myself a GS. I have about 0.7 of a gig of RAM, and my Ep1 works fine, full blaring graphics. I have a single processor that runs at 2.6, so your Duo 1.86 shouldn't have a problem either. Before spending more money to solve the problem, seriously...

I realise that much, but I do try to keep those nasty buggers out. I keep my virus protector up to date (PC-Cillin) and all that jazz. I'd try not to speculate, but that seems most likely to me, mainly because I haven't played an online game on steam for a number of months! But even assuming...

I have always been an honest player, and never even considered cheating. But now I log into steam after not playing an online game for the better part of 6 months, and I'm apparently banned for something I didn't do! Is there anything I can do to lift this ban that was placed for something I...
