I think I know the problem. DoD:S is using the new particle effects and stuff from TF2. This stuff only runs on DirectX 8.0 at least. I think you're running the game in DirectX 7.0 or something.
I had the same problem, so I switched to 8.0 and it looks like regular smoke.
oh shit spider webs!

It is. I think, though, that you can't run the game in 8.0. So I guess you will have to accept the cool wireframes.
otherwise, right-click DODs in My Games, click on "properties", then "set launch options", then in that box type "-dxlevel 81"
If it crashes the game, remove the line.
