My computer seemed to by running like an old bag of pants, so I decided to format it and start again.

Here comes the problem.

Before I formatted I had my config all sorted.
No bobbing, pitching, no gun etc... This isnt the problem really, I can sort this again.

But, I've noticed after reinstalling, it seems I've lost the look of my old BFG shots (they used to be a lot smaller and blue) Now when I fire the blooming thing, I cant see nuffing! Massive load of explosions all over the place, really buggering up vision.

Not sure, where I got it from (thought it was part of E+).
Any idea's how I can get it back?

Also, the rocket explosions...
How do I get rid of them completely, I dont need all these, but cant seem to find where they are. Sad
I used to Frag someone and they vanished instead of exploding and blood all over the place!

I've set cg_blood & gibs, but cant find how to get rid of these explosions and finding the BFG graphic is doing my head in...?

Help would be appreciated. Ta Winking

You most likely had downloaded some custom .pk3 files that took out explosions, made bfg shots look funnier or whatever. Bear in mind that these .pk3 files will NOT allow you to play on pure enabled servers and they are not tolerated in any ranked clan war.

As for where to find them, I got no clue. Better get used to playing 'clean'.

Concerning other various graphic settings you might wanna check these 2 threads:

maybe 1.04 should have strictly pure server settings forced and read only Tongue that make it easier on everyone. lots of other games/mods do it, why are we so behind the times... oh wait...
