I was greeted by this when I joined in tonight's pleasantries:

thankfully, a quick restart of CS:S solved my "issues."

I also deleted my config file, which was the cause of much of the spacking I was encountering. BEWARE THE TWEAKS OF MARCH!

this is what happened with HL2, when it first came out, and i tried to play it using a Nvidia gforce fx5200. My PC said "LOL".

strangely, only the CT models did that, the terrorist models were fine. I think the terrorists would be a lot scarier if they looked like that...

i had that a while ago in one game. never found a proper solution, it only did it that onetime

something must screw up when loading. memory error maybe?

I had this a while back, and tried asking everyone else if they had it, but my microphone of QUIETNESS!!!! meant nobody could here me. Meant to post some screens, but deject saved me a job. It also sorted itself out for me after a restart.

it's happened to me, when I played one of Berk's versions of assault. All the hostages looked like they were plastered in bin liners and duct tape.

make sure that your gfx card isn't getting too hot/isn't overclocked

I also occasionally get weird black patches on maps, and then the next day it works fine?

Gonna do the dreaded "rebuild" soon anyway, so not worth worrying about until then!
