Left 4 Dead 2 seems fine. And all the other games i tried.

previous driver 325.08 worked fine.

edit: found the edit button yay thanks redsword.
edit2: trying a reinstallation, and or switching to octobers 319 drivers.
edit3: reinstalled and launched steam from a terminal donno how i had missed it before but
got a gazillion:
Error: Program binary could not be loaded. Binary is not compatible with current driver/hardware combination.

so guess im just rolling back the driver.

    Looks horrible lol
    Like a 'omg we are being hacked' sequence from a sci-fi action movie.

    Just so you know, there is an "edit" button. Top-right of your post.

    Have you tried deleting the Natural Selection 2 folder in /home/<username>/.config/?
    In this folder the compiled shader are saved.
    I had a broken ingame menu after updating my AMD GPU driver.

    Yep that worked tho now im having segfaults i didnt have before :/.

    Is there a way to completly reset ns2 back to default?.
    rm -rf "~/.config/Natrual Selection 2"
    delete from steam
    install from steam
    like could i purge the cloud storage that it uses?.
    because i think its still using some old data.

    i didn't get the optimize dialogue after reinstall

    You can always try: http://forums.unknownworlds.com/discussion/131428/obby-s-full-nuke-ns2-guide-only-way-to-be-sure

    The paths are a bit different but it should work as expected. especially if you follow the last little bit from ghoulofgsg9

    I've fixed this for the next patch, but you can work around the issue by deleting your shader cache (on Linux it is in ~/.config/Natural Selection 2/cache, in Windows it's %appdata%\Natural Selection 2\cache)
