Exelgor Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Hey guys, Ive got this problem that some unusual effects for me look really dull. Effects like schorching and burning flames are almost unseeable for me wich is a shame since i got into unusual trading. Does anybody know anything about this? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/631158881309032448/631168421534367775/20191008175825_1.jpg Burning https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/628237740110249994/631862436357603338/20191010163453_1.jpg Schorching You can leave a comment here or add me on dc Exelgor#7859 Have a nice day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captainfluffy Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 exel, it's mainly of the maps lighting.. in general burning flames is always been IN MY experience dull same for scorching. just got used to it tbh it's not a big deal as you are trading them anyways EDIT, seond look its dull because you have sertain settings on low or medium. try fiddling around with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIFTA Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 it's because you're on dx8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vAGUe Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 maybe mat_phong has an effect on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Appah Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Dx8 and judging by the low poly playermodel bottom left some sort of performance config, that's almost certainly what's doing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIFTA Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 not to sound arrogant here but I'm 100% correct, dx8 is the only thing effecting this, no other part of your fps config can be changed in any way to change the 'brightness' of unusual particles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appah Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 23 hours ago, Exelgor said: wich part Well assuming you're using a performance config that either automatically or required you to set dx8 it likely also includes alot of stuff that reduces graphical settings below what you can do with just the ingame menu. I'd suggest wiping the config and any launch options you may have and returning the game to default and seeing if that has any improvement. Setting dx90 would work for the day you set it but upon rebooting the game your autoexec.exe would overwrite it and go back to dx8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh the only thing that seems to work is actually setting it to dx8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
