Some people seem to have the shader transparent plasma working for them, like in this pic

where there actually is a somewhat electric look. This, however, isn't true for me. What I have is something similar to this



Which is not like an actual electric look, but more of a "leopard" look, with the shader creating marks rather than lightings. What I wonder is just whether or not is there a way to fix it, since this bother me as hell, and I have to use strange (and memory-costly) workarounds for the proper look to show up.

you get that on all maps? because i can tell that the map from the second pic is custom, and you can modify the look of the shader.

I believe more modern GPUs have a problem with it.

it was broken on port. Waffles can go indepth and complain about it if I refer him here, which I probably will

I get that on all maps, even the stock campaign. The second pic uses the stock shader transparent plasma; only changes were made to the offset amount.



I need solution.


As I said, I need solution. Thanks for summoning Waffles, though.



Are there some settings\files\stuff I could toy with to fix that...?
OR
Is there a new plasma shield noise bitmap that behaves alike the working shader...?

Thanks everyone for replying, though.

Please tell me there is a way to fix this. I am a victim of b40 glass shaders being fugly.
