Issues unresolved
Gray fog bug (DirectX9)
The error occurs while using DX9 with games running on versions prior to the Orangebox version of Source (2010) on Nvidia and AMD graphics.
Supposedly Nvidia fixed it in 2007 in version 1 5 8. 2 4 beta but because the Source engine was updated several times since that date that change was removed in some later driver Since Sin Episodes Emergence never updated the Source engine version it triggers this fog error.[2] |
