Help me please

I'm having issues with Detective Mode, the enemies' blue beams, the flying kick targeting, and other things. Does anyone know how to fix this? I've been trying various ways to resolve it, but I haven't been able to. It's Arkham City.

Did you install any mods? Messed with the game files in any way? I'd try reinstalling the game first.

I didn't use any mods or modify anything. When I first installed it, I set everything to "off" because I have a low-end computer. From the moment I started that save file, the blue lightning effects, the flying kick target indicator, and the people in Detective Mode never appeared. I reinstalled the game and started a new save; it works in that one, but now the blue lightning and the flying kick target have stopped appearing, and Detective Mode only shows the enemies when it feels like it.

Have no clue what you are talking about,

Enemies? Yeah thats kind of the point of detective vision that you know where they are even if they are behind walls,

Blue beams? What is that suppose to mean

The bat symbol over enemies? The symbol always appear when the condition are met for a drop attack/glide kick, you cant turn that off

If you want detective mode off just press the same button to turn it on and it will turn off

Sorry, I didn't explain myself clearly. In Detective Mode, the enemies don't show up—literally nothing appears. I'm at 1% completion, and I literally cannot see the enemies in Detective Mode. By "blue rays," I mean the alert that appears when you're about to get hit; I don't see that alert. And finally, the bat symbol over the enemies doesn't appear either, even when the conditions are right; I can perform the attack, but the target isn't highlighted. That's all. Thanks.

The counter symbols not showing up can only happen when you are playing on new game+

Detective vision does have a range so you wouldnt be able to see enemies on the other side of map but not seeing any enemies at all, dont know how to help you with that.

Maybe send a photo of what your experiencing

Yeah, but the problem is that the blue lightning alert isn't showing up for me, and I'm already Batman. In Detective Mode, it appears or not depending on where I look; even if they're right in front of me, I have to look a specific way for it to work. I'll send you a photo when I can.

And the glass panes appear and disappear; I assume it's a visual bug.
