Is it my graphic settings to blame, or has the wounded "black'n white vision" been removed from v1.0? I never experience it in game, only the panting and moaning sound with regular blinking animation.

I know in the past that the effect didn't work with certain NVIDIA drivers. I remember it worked for a time about a year ago, but it doesn't anymore, so it probably doesn't work with the recent and current ones either.

I have always played with AA on and never had a problem with black and white effect prior to PR1.0.

Might it be some new shaders or new nvidia drivers? Has anyone found a fix other than turning off AA?

I didn't try turning off the AntiAliasing, hate seeing jagged picture. And I indeed have NVidia card.
Funnily, I do miss the black'n white effect now that 1.0 is out. Now it's kind of unintentional and minor cheat, but I miss the immersion.

There are some settings in the Nvidia Control Panel which cause this, Going to the Manage 3D settings and placing all settings for PR.exe to Off or Application-controlled might fix this.

I am using custom nvidia AA aswell (16xS). It worked in 0.98 but with 1.0 I also do not get the black and white screen anymore. I am not going to change that though, since the ingame AA is just horrible and fences, barbed wire and stuff like that is flickering like hell with it.

I don't have it with an ATI card as well, for the record. ATI4890 with:

Driver Packaging Version 8.821-110126a-112962C-ATI
Catalyst Version 11.2
Provider ATI Technologies Inc.
2D Driver Version 8.01.01.1123
2D Driver File Path /REGISTRY/MACHINE/SYSTEM/ControlSet001/Control/CLASS/{4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}/0000
Direct3D Version 7.14.10.0812
OpenGL Version 6.14.10.10524
Catalyst Control Center Version 2011.0126.1749.31909

No black screen on being wounded (but it does appear when revived).

Are the DEVs still working on this bug? Turning AA on will disable the black and white screen for multiple people. That's a real lame cheat..
I "think" i got the b&w screen back with disabled ingame aa but enabled nvidia 8x CSAA.

I have this problem, and I feel it is really more of a hinderance than an advantage. When I reach critical health quickly (without bleeding health down to the threshold), I have no way of knowing I am about to drop dead.

Once you start heavily coughing you know you are below the B&W mark.

Lol

It still occurs for me. I find it bad on dark maps lol

I have that problem since V1.0 too. I have either changed my graphic settings nor updated something.
