FEAR problem

[Target]

Reinstalled Windows and FEAR having just replaced my mobo and CPU but right at the beginning of the game when you first get out of the police card, there's a barrel with a fire in it. Since the reinstall, all I get is the sound of a fire but no actually fire and no shimmering effect.

What ingame setting controls this? I think everything is on max

Can anyone help

Just ignore the god-damned barrel

(Sorry )

I'm not really fussed about the barrel just worried about what else I'll be missing

I've downloaded the latest full patch (1.08)

I've only got a AGP 6800 so I was surprised when it set my settings on max

Reinstalled the game in the end and everything's back as normal. just patched it up to 1.03 this time.
