Hi all im playing this mod for 3 days and i enjoy it ok this is my problem my flashlight does not whant to change color i was in mod ptions and choosed
red flashlight but when i get in a server it's white regular white so can some
one help me at this if possible?

you need a dx9 card to see the color of your own flashlight.
i have that problem too

Yup. It's nasty. Why can't I have a dx9 card?
Coloured flashlights and HDR!

oh thats it? if i knew it i wouldent ask help cuz i do have dx9 card though i dont use it alot cuz it always goes to dx8 after a restart >:\

dx9, 7, 6 I believe
For some reason Valves dx8 shader doesnt allow color change. We dont want to fix up the old shader and use that because it wouldnt be up-to-date likes valves. I think we are waiting on a Shader code update.

Are you saying that the flashlight only is broken in dx8 mode, or am I stupid?

Ok, I'm just stupid. I really want a dx9 card. Btw, will valve update the source engine to support dx10 shaders when vista and dx10 cards are released?

What you say !!

well I mean if you get a DX card 10 card. it will also run all of the DX's so.....I mean why get a DX 9 card when you can get a DX10 card?
adn I said DAMNIT
I have typing skills so fast you don't even know. Problem is I don't always hit the right keys in the right order. Think of a monkey smacking a keyboard. i have less skill than that chimp when it comes to accuracy
and i used to typ well too....
