New beta patch is dx10 only?! Read if you can't get COD to start after updating.

i got it to work. this is what i did:


Fresh install, ran game and set settings to low. Patched, THEN, deleted shaders in 1c Softclub folder in my documents before running...I didn't mess with the other cache.


But, I'm getting wierd graphical bugs... Textures with whacked out color scheme's.

i suppose i could do another fresh install, and set the video settings to low or something and then update. ugh

how did you extract the patch????
i ask this, because the devs never mentioned how to do correctly, and after the release and the first patch, i was trying to extract the patch with winzip i think, and it didnt work.the game didnt even start anymore.
i have seen such posts with every upcoming patch, and i think it is because some guys are using winzip or other programs which are not capable of extracting those files correctly...try it with 7zip, never had a problem with using this program to extract patches into clod...

ps: ok didnt see your last post, so the above is redundant....for your current problems with colour and textures, look if you have disabled anti epilepsy filter.

Hi.

I have a weird problem! After installing the beta patch I can launch the came ok, red sguare at the beginning of the launch. I can join multiplayer servers ok, but when I spawn on the field, I have grass under and above me! Very bizarre feeling. Above me is like a mirror, which reflects the ground objects. Done cache deleting, reinstalling, extract with 7zip, options low some medium.

Any ideas?

Bet you the weird colours are down to the epilepsy filter being turned on. Switch it off and re-test.

S!

I did not unpack to steamapps folder, just extracted then copy/paste and worked just fine. Of course deleting cache etc. as preparation.
