Since a few days ago, i’ve been having this graphics/missing texture bug at apparently random times. Sometimes it can be after about an hour, sometimes after 5 minutes. It basically involves the generic source pink and black error textures, except it covers the enitre screen. Only happens during the actual game, it doesn’t overlay on the menu or anything. It doesn’t go away when I record a demo or hud_reloadscheme and not even if I retry to the server.

Looks like this: http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/614966189833941804/9834384719D3AD4F5F730352E3058C16499CEF6D/

I’ve tried the usual, validating game files, deleted the tf folder, deleted my HUD. Basically everything apart from a full reinstall.

I found a temporary fix involving typing mat_specular in the console a few times but it’s pretty unreliable, doesn’t work every time and I have to just change it back and forward til it goes away but the problem is, changing that command in-game it makes me freeze for like 10s so it’s not ideal.

Anyone else having this recently or know how I can fix it properly?

-autoconfig in launch options (i assume steam cloud cloud is active in TF2?) and try another config perhaps?
