I believe that is caused by the dynamic lighting from the phase gate, you've probably noticed it happening from welders and flashlights as well. There is a command that turns off dynamic lighting in some mods, but i haven't been able to find it in ns.

yeh i think thats the one

it made me quit TOD and FA so please lets hope there is one here..

it affetcs me with guns too sometimes...

The console command is/was "r_dynamic 0", and no, it doesn't work in NS.

( btw Intel video card, by any chance? )

A few other guys and myself put in a request for it to be a switchable option in a future version, no idea if it'll be implemented though.

Edit: You <i>have</i> turned off high detail models / particle effects in the options menu, yes?

Oh, and there are some new low poly models coming out soon, check in Models and skins

firstly ROFL @ your name nice one

and yes Intel card :s 810 if im not mistaken...

i have got most of the lo poly stuff avialable but i have to be careful which servers i play on cos of file consistency...

but i sort of shoot myself in the foot.. cos i use a hi-poly Morita... but i wouldnt play NS if it werent for my starship troopers Fetish LOL

and i have high quality models off but particle effects? i dont have them off... dont know how..

ill go investigate now <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

here's the autoexec.cfg settings I use for NS, otherwise I get lag, this decreases graphical quality madly, but gives me viable FPS, maybe it will help you, some of the commands there don't work with ns, because my config is based on CS

mp_decals "0"
max_shells "0"
max_smokepuffs "0"
gl_cull "1"
gl_playermip "2"
gl_picmip "1"
gl_texsort "0"
r_mirroralpha "0"
r_dynamic "1"
r_mmx "1"
gl_max_size "64"
hisound "0"
r_shadows "0"
r_drawviewmodel "0"
gl_texturemode "gl_nearest"
gl_round_down "10"
fastsprites "2"
gl_keeptjunctions "0"
cl_corpsestay "0"
cl_minmodels "1"
gl_clear "1"
gl_dither "0"

Note that r_drawviewmodel "0" will remove the model of your gun, you will only see your crosshair and not your gun shooting, this saves alot of fps, but some people don't like it, like as alien skulk, you don't see your mouth biting when pressing the fire button

you also don't see hive sight and MT, so I would NOT sugest ussing this (it is also officaly conciderd cheating, for bot marines and aliens b/c of the muzzle flash)

bah, I had a ... POINT

'

use <a href='http://www.udpsoft.com/eye/' target='_blank'>ASE</a> and make a filter tyhat filters out servers with file checking <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

cheers ill try a few but my mian reason for playing NS is to get the feeling of a mrine from Starship troopers i aint gonna take my morita of screen..

and thannal how do i 'make' a filter :S

if you could show me i'd be most grateful..

also i have a problem regarding muzzleflash i have a lo poly semi crappy morita but it looks pretty enough...

but the muzzleflash goes WAY over... it goes fromt he right side about 4 inches past the Xhair in the middle! and therefore when i fire im blind pretty much..

right click on the list of filters, select new and paste:

1 if servertype != "HL" remove
2 if gamedir ~!= "ns" remove
3 if mp_version != "v1.04" remove
4 if mp_consistency != "0" remove

this is the code to make it 1.04 NS with consistancy off <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

name it what ever you want, it will apear on the bottom of the list under my filters

select it, go to the other filters, put in your region, acceptable ping/player #s etc and hit refresh <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

1 if mp_consistency > "0" goto 3
2 remove
3 keep

Then just make it a color filter ( right-click and press and select "make color filter" ) and select
Change = whatever, I use name
Color = whatever, I use green
If server passes this filter
Then all servers with consistency will have a green name
