Help! I'm the 'Silver Surfer'...what did I do to end up like this?

I have a custom skin, and I have high-resolution players skins enabled...

I know this was a problem back at the beginning of T2, I just forget why...

You have to give your skin an alpha layer. Otherwise, it'll be very reflective.

Nah, its an old skin...and I didnt have the problem till I recently (today) added a new vid card (nvidia)....I know there was a prob with it when T2 first came out, I just cant remember the fix...its in the settings, and I tried not using the 'show high resolution skins' setting, but that desont stop it....

The setting you're looking for is "environment mapping" under textures, but disabling this will remove reflections on all objects, water, etc. If you don't care about shiny things though, that should sort it out.

Thanks Krash! Cutting that off seems to have solved it...
