And Re: videocards for the rest of you, yes, I'm on it. I have allocated $200 to the cause. What is more annoying about the texture problems with my mega-crappy onboard video is that they just started last night. As I posted earlier here somewhere, up to a few weeks ago I had zero (0) compatibility problems with CS:S. Now, one giant, awful bug. Anyway.


9/23/2004

COUNTER-STRIKE: SOURCE BETA CHANGES / ADDITIONS:

Improved DX7 graphics code path performance by up to 225%.

Fixed key bindings for non-US layouts causing the scoreboard to be stuck on.

Fixed barrel nudging player forever if you crouched near it.

Made correct names appear in "attacked teammate" message.

Made changelevel due to map timelimit happen at round end.

Added intermission scoreboard at end of round.

Disabled hiding viewmodel with "impulse 200" if sv_cheats is off.

Fixed reload exploit.

Fixed C4 sound not playing while planting.

Stopped money icon being red on level change.

Added C4 icon in first person spectator mode if spectated player has the bomb.

Fixed a problem where the game would crash when run on Win98 with an nVidia 5900, 5950, or 6800.

Fixed crash due to stacking large numbers of weapons.

Fixed muzzle flashes showing incorrectly when switching players in spectator mode.

Fixed voice_banmgr.dt growing exponentially.

So it's probably something they fixed here screwed up something else there. I'd forget about it and get a new card. Don't want Valve to try to fix a bug that happens only for you on an old shitty onboard card.

You can get a Radeon 9200 at Best Buy for $100. Which will run HL2 and CS Source quite well judging by my Radeon 9000 which runs CS Source fine with some specular pixel shading whatever the fuck and models at high.
