Ok, this has been bothering me for eternity.
My specs:
3.0ghz processer p4
1024 mb ram
geforce 6800 256mb

Everything in the game is beautiful, except for the dang assault rifle. compared to the xbox, it looks like baby puke. Specular doesn't work on it or something.

My comp

Xbox or Some other PC

(EDIT)Sorry about that.

Fixed this link. (Or not...)
And this one.

Er, dude, those two ARs are the same. The purple one just has a different coloured light source, is all.

Well, I can't find a screen of the AR in FPS mode on Xbox, but they are different. The lighting that always shows up on the AR is always really generic, and the specular doesn't seem to do anything. It's really blurry too. I'll look for a better AR screenie.

Ok, its blurry, but you can tell.
Xbox screen

Its something they didnt port over from the xbox, if you look at the flag the same thing happens. Theres a mod somewhere that fixes it, but I dont remember where.

It looks to me like you don't have pixel shader 2.0 enabled.

Thanks, and just to be sure, a geforce 6800 can handle pixel shader 2.0 right?
