Visual problems

Black Mesa Archive In-game Issues (Mod)
#1

Well, every male scientist has blood on them, I snapped the scientists on the main menu to show an example:


I’m assuming this isn’t normal, at the beginning I crashed on the menu but changed the directx level to 9.0 through the launch options but it seems to be giving out lots of visual problems like:

When I leave the menu it has this… But it slowly fades to the correct colours again

When I use a dropdown box…

flickers to what it should look like and this…

Windows 7 X64
In-game there are no visual problems other than scientists still have blood on them, but I get crashes all the time.

dumps:
{download} Main menu crash
{download} In-game crash

Try running the game with -autoconfig parameter. Try updating your drivers :slight_smile:

#3

Nope.

So excited for this game and I can’t even play it… :confused:

Wow, I just got the blue screen of death at the end of the tram at the beginning.

Having the exact same problems. Tried every launch option suggested in 4 different threads. Crashes constantly. Objects fade in 3 feet in front of my face instead of rendering properly, all characters have bloody/wrong skin. Total mess.

Really disappointing, but I assume it’s something wrong on my end? I checked MD5 of all files, have reinstalled 5 times now. Verified integrity of all related steam tools.

I quit.

#7

I’ve given up too.
Simply waiting for some fixes.

#8

I have the same issues. Any updates?

#9

Nope. Not one peep in all 5 threads I’ve found about the same problem.

#10

Well, it looks like OP had fixed it after all:
