WHen I go into dynamic lighting this happens, normally the skin is OK:
It happens at every actor it seems.

this was reported before but its impossible (for me) to reproduce. Due some tests with a few persons it seems very likely to be some driver glitch with latest OpenGL / D3D9? or Renderer.
What card are you using? And drivers?

ATI Radeon X1200 on laptop and drivers, almost latest I think...
But it happens only in dynamic lighting or something...in entry.unr it never happens.
And in player selection screen I can't see skins too.
Btw I noticed you included the beta stuff, but the lighting on chameleon is wrong and it is with sharp edges etc...

For now this seems only to happen with ATI cards. Does it happen with D3D9 also?
some beta stuff was included but mainly those for which the models were still in the sources. Any improvements are welcome however

I tried only OpenGL, let me try...and beta stuff was in Unreal source or what do you mean?
Btw I am glad you solved these problems which I had with the gott mod on 227 at least, thanks for that. :P

Was the hawk animated in it or is that Turboman's work?
EDIT: It is OPENGL only problem btw, direct3D works fine.

its the original model found in the sources
Confirms my assumptions that ATI again has some driver problems with GL....

More like the rendering is kinda broken in cards itself (the famous distance bug) and the drivers don't solve it, only for D3D.

Happens on my PC too, although not only with skins, but with ALL textures and everything, and it (starting Unreal with OGL) does something that messes up all textures somehow (idk how) and I have to reinstall Unreal.

By the way when staring Unreal 227f, at nalicastle the flag appears all black, as in not under lighting and then slowly changes to normal, why is that?

Doesn't happen to me on any of my PCs.

nor to me. check your settings. I vaguely remember something about this...something to do with a setting in OpenGL or whatever renderer you use....can't put my finger on it...

I finally found some time to post on here, I have had the same issue, A LOT, usually in my map that i am working on. any actor will turn a sort of.. solid grey color, I am using OpenGL, and i havnt tried D3D yet, Im using a dusty old ATI Radeon 9550, and the Direct X version I have is 11, and i'm also using Windows 7 RC build 7100 latest drivers installed, including catalyst control center, agp is on 8x, if that makes a difference in the way it displays through open gl, the read and write speeds of course. Any way of fixing this problem? maybe in a 227g? (i like the 'g' part, think about it, Its Unreal, G!) :p

No idea how I can fix something which doesn't appear for me, sry, no idea atm.
To get more information, please try console command "flush" - would be interesting to know if it is working again then.

They changed the lighting or something a bit actually...maybe that conflicts with opengl? Probably not though.
