Critical hit graphics bug?

Post » Thu May 03, 2012 10:42 pm

Hello all - just started playing the game, and I'm seeing a strange graphics bug during combats when I get what I assume is a critical hit/shot on an enemy. At the point where you get the slow motion cinematic death shot, I get a "flare" of red blocks. Haven't gotten a screenshot yet, because the game tends to crash at these moments. The best way I can describe it is that instead of a "death animation" I get this blocky red/white flare that looks like graphics from 15 years ago. I will keep trying to get a shot and post that, but does this sound familiar to anyone? Otherwise, the game has been running just fine. Thanks for any suggestions!

Edit: Ok, got a better look but wasn't fast enough to catch it on screenshot. But I have a much better description now! It is basically a big red diamond with a white exclamation point in the middle. Hope that helps.

Are you using any mods?

I am using a handful of mods - probably a good idea to take those out and see if I still have this problem! I will try that and see what happens.
