Gloves and crossbow shine

[Cuthbert]

I reliased that crossbow and Gordon's gloves and some of the other weapons don't shine in my game as it used to be when I played EpOne before or as it used to be in HL2. I might messed something up with console commands. Help anyone?

make sure your directX level didnt get set back in the steam console... or what ever it is... hum... i dont remember where this is... some one else will know.

its not suppose to shine, its a bug.

 

[kacation_man]

shinny objects make me horny :naughty: oh so shinny...

Oh I'm sure "shine" is not the right word... It's just my limited English speaking skills Let me try to describe it another way.

It's the metallic feeling of weapons or Combine walls. It's clearly visible on Pistol or Magnum or Citadel walls. Damn I can't describe! :cheese:

You mean they're shiny? :thumbs:

 

[Cuthbert]

I might!

I have the same thing. It ain't a bug because changing my settings turns it off.

It's not a bug - I remember seeing it in HL2, particularly on the pistol when you got out of the water. I still see it on certain weapons in Ep1, pistol and 'nades, for example.

Now, problem can be solved if you tell me which settings turns that off/on.

A screenshot would help to describe the problem...

It's definetly not a bug, it even shows on the Xbox HL2

It shows on the XBox... and it's not a bug? Bwahaha.

 

[Cuthbert]

I don't have HL in my current machine so I can't upload a screenshot. I'm sure it's a direct X 9 effect so I must have changed something in console related to direct x. Any expert on console commands?

Dare you mock the almighty Xbox?! *Evil glare*
