Strange Texture Glitch in Game -Images - Graphics Issue, or Connection Issue?

[vetta2000]

I was playing my favorite game, and this evening it decided to freak out on me and render this:

http://www.teamfortress2fort.com/gal...game-1188.aspx
http://www.teamfortress2fort.com/gal...lane-1189.aspx

can anybody tell me what is going on here? Did I break the internets?

I play Team Fortress 2 at 1680 x 1050 with the recommended settings (high detail, aaX4 etc.)

I would say that looks like a glitch with that game.

I wouldn't think too much of it unless I see it happen again in a different server.

Ditto.

It doesn't look like it's a hardware issue. If you really want to, you can try to "verify game content". I don't have Steam handy at the moment, but if you right click on TF2, it's either on that menu, or under properties.

[vetta2000]

hey thanks for the responses, and for the alleviating of some of my worries. It fixed itself after I reloaded the game, so it must have been a connection/game error.
My system temps were normal so its not an overheating issue.
