Hey guys, recently I purchased a new DirectX 9 compatible card, (ATI Radeon 9600 XT), and it works great. The problem I have been having is with a particular level.
For all of my pervious hl2 and hl2dm levels the textures show up fine with the nice reflections and such, but on my latest level, the textures show up as DirectX 7, with none of the bells and whistles. Models like players and props look like they are DirectX 9 (as they should) but the textures don?t.
Now I have adjusted the video setting but they do nothing, the problem has to be with the level itself because my other ones work and look fine. I also know this because a friend of mine joined my level, (he has a DirectX 9 card as well), and experienced the same thing.
Anyone know why or how the textures of a level could be changed like that? I don?t really know much more but if you need more info I could try to fill you in. any help would be appreciated.
