The Chrome Glitch

[Rory 1201]

Discovery

So currently I'm playing a game of solo zombies on Five and the following has occurred:

On the floor there is a reflection of the presidential room (can really be seen in Olympia/MPL hallways).

Quick Revive's Symbol on the perk machine is a black circle.

Chalk outlines can't be seen.

The zombies are entirely black except for their eyes.

 

I'm thinking that this is a glitch and it won't happen again (unfortunately I can't record) BUT this makes the map 1000X scarier.  I'm actually liking it a lot!

 

Has this happened to anyone before??

 

IT'S UNIVERSAL.  I ended my game on Five and no joke Shangri-La looks like Area 51!  As Delta said it appears that this will last until I reset the console.

 

Shangri-La:

All grass/leaves textures are missing, making "paradise" look barren.

Zombies have their normal texture back.

 

Summary

The main differences appeared on Kino,Five, and even Dead Ops.  Wonder weapons such as VR-11, Scavenger, and the Wave Gun seemed to be unaffected(at least that's how they looked in the box- all other weapons were chrome).  The texture glitch appears to be a one time thing and I will probably never run into it again so sorry if I missed things (mainly the Thunder Gun, box was being stupid)

Things affected include:

Non-DLC Weapons (none from the WaW maps or DLCs 1-4), Power Switch, Defcon switch, box location board on Kino, some parts of Perk machines, many misc. object that reflect different parts of the map, some parts on the ground and walls, dogs, claymores, Bowie Knife, Death Machine, JFK's hair, Richtofen's hat.  

On DOA, Kino and Five the zombies were entirely black except for their eyes.  Same goes for the characters(they looked scarier than zombies).  On Shangri-La my hands were chrome colored but on most other maps they were pitch black.

 

VIDEO:  This guy really explains it:  '>

 

EDIT:  I've shut the console off, no going back to it . . .  So I hope to get the pics somewhere soonish!(Within a few days as long as I can find a good place to put them all in one spot; anyone know a site?)

Sounds like a simple texture glitch to me. Will probably be normal after you restart your console.

As for it happening to me, I had a texture error on Ascension once. The lander plates, where it lands, were just very low res gray blocks.

I kind of thought so .  Sad because it's really cool!

 

Oh well though!

Texture error.

 

Should be fine, after a reboot.

Could you possibly take even a picture of all this?

A really low quality picture! 

Actually maybe.  Anything specific(Right now on Shang)??  I'm guessing this will last over a few games so I can go "sightseeing"

And if I do find a camera it will be a little bit to get proof.

But yeah it's just a glitch and I'm actually getting a little dizzy.

[Rissole25]

Damn that actually sounds fun haha.

Maybe the spawn room with the stairs in the background. Or the bridge and waterfall even.

If you could get in any other maps that would be cool. Otherwise it's all good :)

[Rory 1201]

Good news-camera works and has good quality.

Bad news-don't know how to upload pictures. :

EDIT:

 

 

 

 

 

Is that decent size/quality?  I can try messing with it some more.

[Rissole25]

Whoa! It's like someone tipped of a buck load of melted silver, and it's just coating the area. Wow. But it looks amazing, reminds me of a WaW Campaign level. That chrome Ray Gun looks great as well!

Picture size and quality is good. No need to mess with it :p

[Rory 1201]

Ok I'll be adding some pictures throughout the night!  Really cool!

Soooo. . . .  requests?

[Rissole25]

I'm fine with whatever haha. Do all levels if you can, but for me, I wouldn't mind seeing Moon and Verruckt. Maybe also showcase some Wonder Weapons as chrome too, like the Thundergun and that.

[Rory 1201]

Ascencion

 

[Rissole25]

Those tree's in Shangri-La omg. Give's a whole new meaning to Paradise.

[Flammenwerfer]

This is actually really neat! Even though it's technically an error, I wouldn't mind experiencing it for myself.

In the past texture glitches have been a pretty solid indicator that your console is about to crap out. This is what happened to a friend's xbox. Hopefully you don't see any red rings in your future.

I had this same issue happen to me in a game of Call of the Dead one time. We restarted the match and it was still happening so I rebooted the console and it went away. Did not try it on any other maps, but it made CotD looks really messed up.

 

Same effect too. Everything was silver coated. It usually could be a sign your console is close to going kapoot, but it was about a year ago it happened to me, and I am still using the same 360 to this day!?

[Speedo Cola]

Happened to me before. I've also got one where everything was really bright, like there was tons of bright green and purple on the BO2 maps for me once.
