I have a active camo problem where whenever a person takes teh active camo they becom the colour they look at but it's just me not everyone ( ie. middle of blood gulch person takes active camo and they turn baby blue to me). I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem or if it's just me or what. I have a radeon 9200 with the 4.1 or 4.2 drivers so don't know what the problem is could anyone tell me.

The reason you are having this problem is because any card below (and including) the 9200 series of Radeon cards do not support Direct X9. And guess what Halo PC is? A Direct X9 game. Really, you shouldnt worry, as its all the easier to pwn invisible people.

What are you talking about all the redeon cards that I know of support direct x9, it evens says direct x9 on the options thingy and on there website ( www.ati.com) says it supports direct x9. If I didn't have direct x9 I won't be able to even play halo jeeze use some sense there buddy.

BTW I have direct x9.0b

well the other guy is right, the 9200 doesnt support dx9, same goes for the g4 series (what i got), you can have dx9 installed but it wont work correctly, as in halo on the options you wont be able to turn on specular and shadows and on some even decals, you need to upgrade to the next series of cards (fx5200+ and whatever its counterpart in ati is, im not sure) which do support dx9

I would help, but that comment pissed me off. Never disregard my info unless you know. Guess you'll have fun figuring this problem out by yourself. Ahhhh, to be a dumbass :P
