What Nvidia graphics card are you using? Only DirectX 9 ones or something will show it.

Why do my bosses glow with post-processing disabled?

I'm pretty sure that support ticket is wrong and that it's tied purely into DirectX.

I have direct x 9 its a nvidia card just got the latest drivers from MSI the manufacturer of the card using their live update and still no glows cant figure it out.

I have the same problem: While my card does not support DirectX 9, I know the effect is possible. In PvP matches, 'allies' glow, just like they should. Does anyone have an idea on how to reproduce this effect on bosses?

do you have post-porcessing disabled in advanced options?

aeroclown · Jul 05, 2005, 05:52 PM // 17:52

It is post-process effect. I just turned mine off to check.

wow, first time i saw a boss glow, i think to myself... is my videocard broken because nothing has glow in the game before. Than after looking at the forum, i finally got the answer! boss suppose to glow and that the color represent different element for them.

So am I the only one who gets boss glow with post-processing effects disabled?

Sir Skullcrasher · Jul 05, 2005, 07:22 PM // 19:22

which card model number is it?

and does it say direct x 9 COMPLIANT or merely COMPATABLE

some of nvidias cards were budget cards made without the pixil and vertex shader features you need for the glow (example any of the 4 series mx cards)
