Readyroom on first join. If I hadn't joined the spectator room before coming back to ready room, it would've been pitch dark (no "sneak peek" holes):

In game. Notice the horrible pixels of infest splashed on screen. On marines, there are also similar blue patches around the field of vision:

Another horrible random scene:

    What does your console & log say?
    I think this is shaders playing up. If console does not show any errors then delete your shaders & let steam verify the game cache so it redownloads them.
    Also dont forget to delete the shaders out your ns2's userprofile.

    console output nothing out of the ordinary.
    i have reinstalled the whole game and the shaders appear to load properly now.

    will post back if it comes back again.

    thank you!

    Why to use OpenGL on Windows especially when it's marked as beta? Also, AMD driver has poor OpenGL support (on Linux, but also on Windows, I remember many glitches were reported on AMD cards in RAGE which uses OpenGL). Stick to DX9, it should work properly for you.

    OpenGL is in Beta. Please use DX9 or DX11 to play NS2 which should fix your graphical issues.
