I think it has to do with my Gcard (128 RAI 9200), how do I get it to work?
 
I think you need a DX9 compatible card to use bloom. The radeon 9200 is DX 8.1
 
Type mat_dxlevel 90 into the console to force DX 9. Only use it for taking Bloom screenies or ColourMod screenies, because it gives you a horrendously low framerate.
 
No problemo. It will also make bump-mapping on everything more obvious.
 
but it shall murder you performance, but for screenies, thats okay.
 
You can't force a DirectX level that the card doesn't support. Your card is just too old for that effect.
