ZOMG WTF DOOD?!

Post by hell_knight »

okay so its like this...i play halo on a 16 (yes 16) mb gfx card and of corse the GFX suk reely bad i play in PIXELS like it looks like SNES but sumthing strange happened...when i played one day, i tried to change settings, but it just flashed and went back to the main UI... when i played campaign my controls were changed to the default...but sumthing strange happened...
i actually saw decals i am not making this up...
i have like the worst GFX card that is able to run halo (and it runs at 15 FPS at fastest) but i saw decals! blood splats bullet holes, burns, ETC
can anyone explain this amazing miracle to me?

No. But I can tell you that you should get a new graphics card, despite your newfound luck.

What kind of card do you have? A voodoo? You can get a mid to low end DX9 video card for less than $50.

Oh gods! It's doom with halo skins! True leetness. I would play halo all day like that.

And yeah, new graphics card for sure.

I don't think that a 16 MB card will limit your ability to enable/disable decals... :/
Nothing very OMGWTFREVOLUTIONARY to me. Also, new GPU = good.
