OK heres my issue, I have installed steam and just recently purchased Day of Defeat:Source and installed. I used a program called Crossover Games to install steam.i looked up compatability issues online and put in a launch option that would fix the direct x issue, This was what I found
"I tried to run Day of Defeat: Source on my Macbook 2.0Ghz 1 GB Ram, but after the DOD "Loading..." screen, it goes black but I can still move my mouse and hear the "clicking" noise as it moves over the menu options. It may be a driver issue.let me know -Glitch
FIXED IT**
This is a known issue with some graphic card / driver combinations.
A work around you can try is to modify the command line for the Steam game you are trying to run. For example in Half-Life 2, right click on the game in the Steam games list. Then choose properties. Click the 'Set Launch Options' button. In the text field add this to the end:
-dxlevel 70 -width 1024 -height 768 "
i did that and set everything to minimum specs and when i started a server i would get a Grey fuzz until i started to run around then the screen would go black like it stated above. how do i fix this so i can play. and also when i try to search for a match, it just refreshes forever and nothing shows up. aslo window mode doesnt even work, it doesnt go into window mode. any help?
