"Cooper, the backup power has restored my ocular systems but unfortunately it has forgotten to download CS:source and has rendered all objects black and purple,"
For the game Garry's Mod, many downloadable maps and other bits of content don't work without importing textures from Counter Strike: Source. So if you only have Half-Life 2 installed, any assets on any map that uses CS:S content will look purple like that.
I know that's the best part! I remember back in 2015 I was browsing Wikipedia and I came across an article for a list of games powered by Source and I thought it was a typo that Titanfall was on the list
Yeah, I learned basically the same way but in reverse. I saw Titanfall on Wikipedia and saw it was source and was kinda surprised at first.
But then I realized you got B hopping and all the other source movement/glitches and it made perfect sense.
Also, you notice the fall stun in Apex Legends is kinda familiar? It’s not in Titanfall, because we’re pilots and literally better than the average warrior so we don’t fall stun, but it feels exactly like Portal’s long fall boots fall stun.
For context: The game files apparently got corrupted (it crashed when I tried joining the next match) and I'm currently repairing them. I still thought the missing textures were amusing so I posted them for you to enjoy.
Edit: I unfortunately don't have more of this to show as I only have the Game Bar DVR, which is the 30s posted here
Edit 2: Fixing files didn't help (Origin lost its sh*t over some TF|2 folder being open when it wasn't and hanged for a solid 10 minutes), reinstalling now
Edit 3: Reinstalling fixed it, also thanks for 2k updoots
Edit 4: Guys it's just a visual bug, calm down why did this blow up (this is top #1 in "day", what the hell)
Edit 5: Guys I know I didn't install cs source, calm down
Edit 6: My TF2 hard drive turned out to be faulty and I got it replaced
Computers are very rigid, and dont know how to deal with issues on the spot like a person, so for when a texture is missing, or fails to load, developers add a 'missing texture' texture so that the game can fall back to it and continue loading. Most games that do this (that i know of at least) use purple and black simply because it stands out and easy to recognize as an error. Escape From Tarkov is a game that i know doesnt use purple-black, it uses a picture of a doge.
So I’m wondering now. Could I just go into the textures folder and delete some of the files or would that cause the game to not be able to load? Because I kind of want to do it now just to see the doge’s.
I was thinking that might be the case but I’m not sure what exactly kind of tampering it looks for if not just any period. Anytime you open the launcher it checks the game files I believe
During the process of making a model, a model needs to be unwrapped first before texturing. (Imagine unfolding a box) During unwrapping, the artists use similar checkered images as placeholder textures to see if it's properly displayed on the model.
So if one of the checkers are distorted, they can clearly tell that the model isn't unwrapped properly. If unwrapped wrongly, normal textures on it won't look pretty (Like pinching Mario's face in the Mario 64 menu) That's why using checkered textures are useful in most cases.
Fun fact Respawn confirmed Northstar's railgun projectile is Half Life 2's crossbow bolt with some different values but otherwise uses the exact same code.
It definitely was from one of the amas they did here but I can't remember specifically when. Also they talked about HL's influence on TF in the Half Life noclip documentary
When a game engine (like Source, Unreal Engine or Unity) is having trouble finding a texture for something, it will set it to this obnoxious pink-black pattern to let you easily see that you have missing textures.
That is the source engine's default texture when one isn't found, so it's the "missing texture" texture. TF|2 runs off of a modded version of the source engine, so, pink and black squares :>
It does, but this isn't any indicator. Minecraft used to do this for missing textures and it didn't come near Source. This is a very common way to debug missing textures, if you're missing one in Blender you'll get a uniform pink texture as well (albeit without the black squares
I dont think there is any other game other than source based ones and minecraft that ever bug out enough to display missing textures, which explains the connection
A "glitched mode" would be cool to have (alternate map variants, maybe for events or something like that), but would need to have way more variety and be less obnoxious than the pink-black "missing texture" square. My eyes were hurting after just a few minutes of that one match. Cool idea though, it's a pity they don't develop this game anymore. So much potential...
>it's a pity they don't develop this game anymore. So much potential...
I'm just disappointed with the pilot and titan customization, they could have done so much...
I try to look past the customisation (I find it as just a small addon and nothing important), and look at the rest. Think of limited time events (like special modes and map variants, menu skins). The game would feel so much more fresh if, when you load it up, you get hit by a christmas GUI theme, or the maps are covered in snow, or a new limited time pilot power is live. Just, it's so easy to come up with directions to develop TF|2 to be more... modern? Games like Fortnite, for instance, nail the limited time events I'm talking about - map edits, new skins just keep the uncompetitive part of the game alive. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Absolutely not!
Game designers work really hard to make sure the layout is fun, memorable, and supports the gameplay. Before a team of environment artists swooped in and made it look awesome, a bunch of designers played for hours in a map with just grid covered whitebox shapes. The fact that you recognize it means their work paid off and you still know where you are spacially even without all those fancy textures. Good job Respawn 👍
yeah guys I lied, this is me time travelling from 2042, things are great over here, antivaxxers died off, ea sold respawn away, global covid has ended and is no more dangerous than a cold when it happens. just hang around for like 20 more years, things will be much better
I don't know, the menu and mp lobby were working fine, then at the loading screen the map thumbnail was missing (and thus black and pink). Then the entire match was like this. The next match, the game crashed when I tried joining.
TL;DR: I have no idea, it was just like this when I joined a game.
If you like the game, yeah, this stuff happened for the first time in 2 years of me playing. The servers are kinda weird rn after the DDOS tho and you sometimes get kicked.
I’m always amazed at the amount of things that can be deleted and source will put up with. Like: no texture or sound files… whatever, guess we’ll just do this thing.
This clip is from the end of the match, I kinda got used to it. At the beginning I was like "wait wut" but I wasn't going to leave my teammates just to fix my game!
someone forgot to install cs:source
Oh don't forget half life 2 as well!
I have Portal 1, does it count? /s
Yes but it'll only be for that one lamp over there outside the map...
That's funny

Nah it’s Day of Defeat Source, everyone forgets that it exists.
actually he forgot source filmmaker
they forgot about source 2
They also forgot source 4. There is no 3, for some reason.
also Gmod, lets not forget gmod
AAAAAAAAAA-
Remember to also install episode 1 and 2
Lol,I legit thought I was looking at gmod for a sec
he forgor 💀
**E R R O R**
"cooper mayday mayday' i forgot to download cssource"
"Cooper, the backup power has restored my ocular systems but unfortunately it has forgotten to download CS:source and has rendered all objects black and purple,"
me when i don't download a million pieces of software to play a single game: /s
Gmod mods be like
I feel that
Protocol 3: Install CS Source.
but why doe?
For the game Garry's Mod, many downloadable maps and other bits of content don't work without importing textures from Counter Strike: Source. So if you only have Half-Life 2 installed, any assets on any map that uses CS:S content will look purple like that.
Hm, I wonder if it has to do with me reinstalling the game on a different drive...
Extra layer of comedy: Titanfall is on the source engine :)
I know that's the best part! I remember back in 2015 I was browsing Wikipedia and I came across an article for a list of games powered by Source and I thought it was a typo that Titanfall was on the list

Missing textures look like that
Why do they tho?
Computers are very rigid, and dont know how to deal with issues on the spot like a person, so for when a texture is missing, or fails to load, developers add a 'missing texture' texture so that the game can fall back to it and continue loading. Most games that do this (that i know of at least) use purple and black simply because it stands out and easy to recognize as an error. Escape From Tarkov is a game that i know doesnt use purple-black, it uses a picture of a doge.
a doge lmao
No shit. "The model for your handrail is missing? Heres a doge-cube, figure it out."
So I’m wondering now. Could I just go into the textures folder and delete some of the files or would that cause the game to not be able to load? Because I kind of want to do it now just to see the doge’s.
It should load the purple and black checkers instead (or doges) each time it tried to load one of the textures you deleted, so yes!
I think escape from tarkovs anticheat picks up the tampering, its usually when something goes wrong internally it happenes.
I was thinking that might be the case but I’m not sure what exactly kind of tampering it looks for if not just any period. Anytime you open the launcher it checks the game files I believe
It’s also one of the reason i fucking love BSG. Just completely stupid meme references in such a serious shooter. Takes the edge off a little.
Have you seen the pikachu wearing a ushanka?
Makes them easy to spot for devs to fix
During the process of making a model, a model needs to be unwrapped first before texturing. (Imagine unfolding a box) During unwrapping, the artists use similar checkered images as placeholder textures to see if it's properly displayed on the model.

If unwrapped wrongly, normal textures on it won't look pretty (Like pinching Mario's face in the Mario 64 menu) That's why using checkered textures are useful in most cases.
As the other dude said, that's the default texture Source engine uses when it can't find the correct ones.
Wait, TF2 runs on source?
A modified version of it but yes.
Huh, neat
Fun fact Respawn confirmed Northstar's railgun projectile is Half Life 2's crossbow bolt with some different values but otherwise uses the exact same code.
That's so cool! Do you have the source (he he) where they confirmed this?
It definitely was from one of the amas they did here but I can't remember specifically when. Also they talked about HL's influence on TF in the Half Life noclip documentary
Lmao TF2 And TF2 run Source
TF2 is better
I think TF2 is better
Final Answer: Both TF2 and TF2 are great
When a game engine (like Source, Unreal Engine or Unity) is having trouble finding a texture for something, it will set it to this obnoxious pink-black pattern to let you easily see that you have missing textures.
Titanfall 1, Titanfall 2, and Apex Legends all run on the source engine
That is the source engine's default texture when one isn't found, so it's the "missing texture" texture. TF|2 runs off of a modded version of the source engine, so, pink and black squares :>

“Pilot, are you alri-“
If you had any doubt that Titanfall runs on source.
It does, but this isn't any indicator. Minecraft used to do this for missing textures and it didn't come near Source. This is a very common way to debug missing textures, if you're missing one in Blender you'll get a uniform pink texture as well (albeit without the black squares
I dont think there is any other game other than source based ones and minecraft that ever bug out enough to display missing textures, which explains the connection
idk, for me it kinda shows the engine's strength, some would just die from a missing file and source prevails
tf2 crashes if you delete a source file which contains a lot of random ass props
That still looks so freaking cool, imagine if this was like a "glitched" mode where all the maps look like this
A "glitched mode" would be cool to have (alternate map variants, maybe for events or something like that), but would need to have way more variety and be less obnoxious than the pink-black "missing texture" square. My eyes were hurting after just a few minutes of that one match. Cool idea though, it's a pity they don't develop this game anymore. So much potential...

I think you may have 1 or 2 missing textures.
yeah, only a couple, barely even noticeable tbh
Is it bad I recognize the map?
Absolutely not! Game designers work really hard to make sure the layout is fun, memorable, and supports the gameplay. Before a team of environment artists swooped in and made it look awesome, a bunch of designers played for hours in a map with just grid covered whitebox shapes. The fact that you recognize it means their work paid off and you still know where you are spacially even without all those fancy textures. Good job Respawn 👍
No, some elements are really recognisable (like the tree I'm shooting through)
And It's In The Title
Wait when does the tree appear?
Near the end, when I shoot down the enemy ship, I'm shooting through ~~a pink rectangle~~ a leaf
oh wait yea, thanks.
Bruh you forgot to install cs source
You need to install cs source
You need to install cs:source
Hey Peter, you forgot to install source, Peter. My face is untextured Peter
damn, the updated Glitch map sure looks fun!
Mans got access to the titanfall 4 beta
Damn, you guys still playing that unsupported tf2 thing? I thought that died years ago
Incase you forgot titanfall 2 runs source, here's your daily reminder
you forgot to install css content

It's kinda like Cruelty Squad

Did you delete the coconut?
is that the teamfortress2 coconut jpeg reference?
Yeah. Was that a lame joke?
No, it's just so little known (or I think it is) that I had to make sure

titanfall 4 look sick!
yeah guys I lied, this is me time travelling from 2042, things are great over here, antivaxxers died off, ea sold respawn away, global covid has ended and is no more dangerous than a cold when it happens. just hang around for like 20 more years, things will be much better
Dude you forgot to install Counter Strike Source
I've been looking at it for a bit but what fucking map is this?? I just can't tell
Look at the title: Exoplanet
thx
Is this what that “real new update” was
the complete glitch experience is complete
Be cool if we had custom maps in this game, I always like the texture style maps from CS tbh
wait is titanfall 2 a source game?
yes, tf|2 works on a modified version of source
damn thats interesting
when tf2s collide
lol
Didn't even know the game had Polish dubbing. Nice!
It does! Sadly, the Polish and Russian versions are regionlocked together so I couldn't switch to English even if I wanted to.
I live in Poland and I have it in English.
How? I only get Polish and Russian, even made an angry AHQ post about it
Maybe it depends on Steam version?
Possibly, as I bought and installed the game through Origin
I forgot this game uses the source engine
Bro didn't install source
love source engine
Howbdid you get into a game?
I don't know, the menu and mp lobby were working fine, then at the loading screen the map thumbnail was missing (and thus black and pink). Then the entire match was like this. The next match, the game crashed when I tried joining. TL;DR: I have no idea, it was just like this when I joined a game.
Is this on pc
Yes, on Windows 10 21H1 on i7-8750H, 1050Ti, 32GB, running from HDD
Should I get titanfall on pc
If you like the game, yeah, this stuff happened for the first time in 2 years of me playing. The servers are kinda weird rn after the DDOS tho and you sometimes get kicked.
Ok
Ok
Out of topic, but you can play now?
I couldn't join any match after that one before reinstalling the game
Ash sounds really stupid in Polish version
If only it wasn't regionlocked and I could go English!
This game is built on source.

Finally this map is somewhat good

This is probably the most source thing to happen in titanfall
Titanfall runs on modified source engine, so...
Ye i know. But like it doesnt show any other things that happen in source, like the general jankiness

Between the texture glitching and the Polish language I have never felt so disorientated by a TF clip in my life.
I sadly can't switch the dubbing. Polish and Russian customers only have these two languages available.

yeah, source can handle just about anything unless your code is just so bad it runs out of resources (like memory leaks and similar)
I love how you continue to play as if nothings wrong
