DoD and an inability to see owt

[Mr Flibble]

Erm, to all of you who play DoD: Since 2.0 I have been unable to see the axis ( or the allies sometimes) unless they are about 3 feet away. As in I can see the player models and think "ah someone else" but whether it's axis or not I have no idea until I get up close, and my chances of being able to distinguish their heads is zero. On maps like dog1 I can hardly see people popping their heads over the machine gun nests, let alone managed to get the (new and annoying) crosshair over them, but yet when the situation is reversed, all I have to do is put my head over the sand bags and it gets blown off.

I have gamma set to 3 but other than that I don't know of any commands to help. If anyone knows owt I'd apreciate it.

Cheers

k check your config for fog settings....

cl_fog "1" for on "0" for off

cl_fog_start "x" x should be a positive number if you wanna use fog, sometimes your config might generate a silly number like it did for me when I first enabled fog (-100 in my case :/ hah) try values of 1 to whatever

If it isnt fog related the get some spectacles.... If someone sees you instantly on dod_overlord while you spawned in the water and pops a cap in y0 head.. dont be too worried about screaming cheat :/

Mmm it does seem like a camoflauge thing u know. i ve got gamma on 3 too, and can see pretty well.
What kind of video card do you have ?

 

[Mr Flibble]

a trusty TNT2 M64. I have no probs seeing in any other mods and I didn't in DoD before 2.0

DoD although a good game does obviously have its bugs as with all games in BETA
I'm sure they will be fixed soon
Better be

Hi Thrody,

Played my first ever proper game of DOD last night, it was good to see you there, a name I know and all that.

It was a bit bewildering at first.

I played axis on the beach and didn't have a clue what to do or where to go. Crap score

Then allie on the next map with you, a little better.

Then axis on the last and capped your ass a couple of times
Still nearly bottom of my team but a respectable score 18-12 or close.

I'll be playing again, but it'll take ages to learn the maps, they're quite complicated.
