recently I was watching a demo in DOD:S and something weird happened. My in-game name changed to the person who's demo it was. No problem, I changed it back to my name. But, something happened to my mini-map. I can see all the people in my teams name all at once, instead of when they just die. This is hugely annoying when it's a full 32 person server and near impossible to keep track where the people on my team are dieing. Does anyone know how I would be able to fix that?
 
You could just not use the mini map...I'm not sure but maybe skin sites like fpsbanana have reskins for the mini maps that may help if its even a option. If all else fails just uninstall/reinstall Dod.
 
How would I go about uninstalling/reinstalling? I'm afraid of deleting it and having to buy the game again.
 
Here's what I mean....

Dude don't worry about you need to buy it again if you got it from steam store then it should be fine and if that doesn't work you press support on the steam thing.
Try to reinstall it :)
 
You won't have to reinstall it, I've toggled this, not sure how though :P Try some keys like F1 F2 etc.
Good luck
 
I think I have found the solution to the problem.

*deep breathe* A few days ago I was messing with my video settings because a custom map was strangely making my screen look dark. When I messed and messed with the video settings to try to make the map look "normal". I messed with it so much this happened.

After seeing that, I change back to my original settings and those "errors" turned out to be trees and cars. So, I switched back my settings and could then see the trees and cars again. Therefore I thought the solution was fixed (or so I thought).

I just looked back at those screenshots and now realize that THAT is when my problem started (as you can tell by the screenshots). As for me thinking this happened after watching a demo, I must have gotten paranoid after my name switched to the person of a demo I was watching probably not too long after this happened (although I have no clue how that happened either).

So what I have to do now is find the setting that fixes this. I hope this is the solution...
 
Good to hear you solved your problems :D Thanks for sharing with us :)
 
Damn! That sucks :( From your poll-reply I know you use it a lot :O
