[quote="spm97";p="134513"]So - What type of rigs are you guys playing on that you are playing on Low setting ? I find medium to normally be the sweet spot for FPS vs Quality....

Intel Pentium 4 3.00GHz
RADEON 9200
512MB RAM
160 GB Harddrive

On lowest settings I get around 30 FPS.

I sat down at Viva's comp today and discovered she can not see the following;

- No medic beams (friendy or enemy)
- Cloaked spies on fire (still invisible, no flame)
- "Critical Hit" text is absent above players she's hitting

I tried lowering her vid options, no change, she generally runs them very high. I've never had this prob on my comp. She runs Vista. . anyone else running Vista getting this?

The beam should be present in any graphical state.

have you tried the valve forums?

I sometimes lose the medibeam but fix it by switching to one of my other weapons and then switching back (always works for me).

The reverse HUD is annoying but will typically fix itself once your team either wins or loses every round and you are switched back to the proper color. It is definitely annoying when playing medic.

I generally run my video settings on High or Very High with no AA or AF.
