Sivodsi Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 I'm guessing somebody has already reported this? I searched but couldn't find anything (probably not using the right search terms. Happened in a PBEM game on a laptop with nvidia GeForce Go 7600, save file available. This phenomenon only occurred at the very start of the PBEM move, when some of the strykers did this crazy driving burying themselves repeatedly in the first few seconds of movement before righting themselves and moving on as normal. I also notice at the very start of the PBEM move, all vehicles shake as if getting ready to move (regardless of whether they have been given a move command or not). Is this normal? Anyway, caption anybody? "Noone could deny the versitality of the Stryker platform after the first AA versions became available" "Sarge, I TOLD you that loading that extra crate of beer was a mistake!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moon Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Do you have the latest version, v1.08? I haven't seen anything like this since beta. Martin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVulture Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 I managed a similar thing in a 1.08 PBEM (and it is absolutely definitely 1.08, but it was on rather steep gradients rather than flat ground: It did some crazy stuff like that for a few second (I still have the PBEM turn file if it is any use) before eventually sorting itself out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivodsi Posted May 21, 2008 Author Share Posted May 21, 2008 Do you have the latest version, v1.08? I haven't seen anything like this since beta. Yes, fully updated. This 'feature' has only occured once though, after reaching PBEM number 32. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 TheVulture, yes, please email the PBEM file (with instructions, such as password etc. to load it) to support@battlefront.com Martin 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivodsi Posted May 21, 2008 Author Share Posted May 21, 2008 TheVulture, yes, please email the PBEM file I assume you'd want mine as well. At least three of my vehicles did this little trick - if you look in the background of my picture you can see another stryker up to its tricks. Anyway, whether you want it or not, its been sent! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Yes, thanks, but for the record, we don't need any more! Looks like some other people also decided to send in their save games, and it's clogging up our support email. We have what we need, thanks.

Sivodsi Posted May 21, 2008 Author Share Posted May 21, 2008 On a graphics glitch related note: I have no idea what real explosions look like, but don't you think that some catastropic explosions are a bit OTT? This one is of a BMP2 meeting its spectacular end to an appointment with a javelin: Looks like a thermobaric warhead which should have flattened everything in the vicinity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
