cobalt skin problem?

(wolfleader101) #1

ok so i have now 2 cobalts and instead of having a nice blue colour they have this horrible black with little white stars?dots and i heard that there is a setting that makes them look better but i am not sure, i am running on a config so that could be the problem but i dont think so.

You need to activate high quality materials.

@laudatoryLunch how do i do tht

If I’m right:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Dirty Bomb\Engine\Config
BaseEngine > ballowhighqualitymaterials=true

Well, yes. But since you’re using a potato config I thought you need to edit it there.

There are two variants of Cobalt: “Shard” which comes with the clothing with the blue sawtooth patterns and the deep blue chrome guns, and “Fragment” where the clothing is tone on tone grey splinters and the guns have a faceted silvery chrome with sparkles. You have the “Fragment” version.

You can see screenshots of all the skin variants here
