Black Squares Behind Bubbles Etc.

ShadowSlay

when i play in stages with water all the bubbles in the water have black squares behind them....and theres a stage that has a pure black wire coming down from the wall(the stage with viaduct hive). also in certain spots in levels there are boxes that when i hide next to them my guy goes pure black until i move away from the shadow. is this supposed to happen? or is there a fix for it?
~thanx~

hmmm very very interesting (fake german accent)

Try a reinsatll (It will often fix stuff)

The really dark shadow behind a box is a bug present in all HL games, just got to live with it. And the black wire is meant to be there.

I also get the same bug with the bubbles though, but I just ignore it.
