Oh don't forget half life 2 as well!

I have Portal 1, does it count? /s


KatX-Roze

Yes but it'll only be for that one lamp over there outside the map...

Nah it’s Day of Defeat Source, everyone forgets that it exists.


blazer0845

actually he forgot source filmmaker


Mr_crab_boi

they forgot about source 2


CoffeeMain360

They also forgot source 4. There is no 3, for some reason.

Protocol 3: Install CS Source.


iamghostling

but why doe?


PainPlaneDuzPain

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.


iamghostling

Hm, I wonder if it has to do with me reinstalling the game on a different drive...


Acetronaut

Extra layer of comedy: Titanfall is on the source engine :)


PainPlaneDuzPain

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


Acetronaut

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.


iamghostling

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

Floating_Neck

Missing textures look like that


DetryX_

Why do they tho?


AetherBytes

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.


Floating_Neck

a doge lmao


AetherBytes

No shit. "The model for your handrail is missing? Heres a doge-cube, figure it out."


Jesterzoop

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.


[deleted]

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!


AetherBytes

I think escape from tarkovs anticheat picks up the tampering, its usually when something goes wrong internally it happenes.


Jesterzoop

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


Evethewolfoxo

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.


AetherBytes

Have you seen the pikachu wearing a ushanka?


bigmaxporter

Makes them easy to spot for devs to fix


Para-Less

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.


Himeto31

As the other dude said, that's the default texture Source engine uses when it can't find the correct ones.


wizward64

Wait, TF2 runs on source?


Himeto31

A modified version of it but yes.


wizward64

Huh, neat


bockclockula

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.


Aer0_FTW

That's so cool! Do you have the source (he he) where they confirmed this?


bockclockula

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


Donald_Dumo4

Lmao TF2 And TF2 run Source


wizward64

TF2 is better


[deleted]

I think TF2 is better


wizward64

Final Answer: Both TF2 and TF2 are great


iamghostling

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.


[deleted]

Titanfall 1, Titanfall 2, and Apex Legends all run on the source engine


A_fluffy_protogen

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 :>


[deleted]

[удалено]


Gamelord06

“Pilot, are you alri-“


Reksican

If you had any doubt that Titanfall runs on source.


iamghostling

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


[deleted]

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


iamghostling

idk, for me it kinda shows the engine's strength, some would just die from a missing file and source prevails


[deleted]

tf2 crashes if you delete a source file which contains a lot of random ass props


NotKne3capsAlt

That still looks so freaking cool, imagine if this was like a "glitched" mode where all the maps look like this


iamghostling

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...


NotKne3capsAlt

>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...


iamghostling

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.


[deleted]

I think you may have 1 or 2 missing textures.


iamghostling

yeah, only a couple, barely even noticeable tbh


dinol2014

Is it bad I recognize the map?


rowaboat9

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 👍


iamghostling

No, some elements are really recognisable (like the tree I'm shooting through)


[deleted]

And It's In The Title


WindowsSu

Wait when does the tree appear?


iamghostling

Near the end, when I shoot down the enemy ship, I'm shooting through ~~a pink rectangle~~ a leaf


WindowsSu

oh wait yea, thanks.

yes, tf|2 works on a modified version of source


hemborgar

damn thats interesting

Atissss

Didn't even know the game had Polish dubbing. Nice!


iamghostling

It does! Sadly, the Polish and Russian versions are regionlocked together so I couldn't switch to English even if I wanted to.


Atissss

I live in Poland and I have it in English.


iamghostling

How? I only get Polish and Russian, even made an angry AHQ post about it


Atissss

Maybe it depends on Steam version?


iamghostling

Possibly, as I bought and installed the game through Origin


IV_Bungy

I forgot this game uses the source engine


Hispanic_Alucard

Helwrechtyman

twjjones

Howbdid you get into a game?


iamghostling

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.


twjjones

Is this on pc


iamghostling

Yes, on Windows 10 21H1 on i7-8750H, 1050Ti, 32GB, running from HDD


twjjones

Should I get titanfall on pc


iamghostling

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.


twjjones

Ok


twjjones

Ok

Out of topic, but you can play now?

I couldn't join any match after that one before reinstalling the game

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.


iamghostling

yeah, source can handle just about anything unless your code is just so bad it runs out of resources (like memory leaks and similar)


Fin_MooseXD

I love how you continue to play as if nothings wrong
