    Need help with wierd glitch

    A few months ago I started making a map, but gave up after a big glitch popped up. Recently I've been interested in getting back to work on the map, but it's pointless if I can't fix the glitch. Basically, there's a section of my map (maybe more, but I've only found one) that acts "corrupted." Any empty vehicles within this section of map "lurch" about on their own, and driving is very difficult (it acts like the vehicle is on a constantly changing slope). Outside of this area of the map, everything works fine.

    I made a video to show what's going on:
    (20sec, 6mb)

    Any and all help/speculation/insult is welcome!

    Yeah put a bunch of locked vehicles there and make it the center of the map. You have to cross that zone and dodge the crazy vehicles to get to the other side/flags. That'd be awesome

    I love how your player model motions for the vehicle to "come here" and then it lurches forward to you.

    its the ghost of the guy you tked for the apc, he can never rest, his soul roams the battlefield looking to pwn a newb, yet, no newbs will ever come to him, and alas he is alone



    shouldnt we be helping him with his problem instead of laughing at it

    Re: Need help with wierd glitch

    Without being able to recreate the problem its hard to find a solution.

    I can't even think why it would move like that, it isn't even constant. In properties check the X,Y,Z out (instead of double clicking on the object), look if there is a + sign for the position or anything that might modify the position like speed.

    Also check out:
    C:\PATH TO MAIN BF2\BF2\mods\bf2\Levels\LEVELNAME\Editor

    Open GamePlayObjects.con and delete the vehicles (Should be at the top) from that file instead of in the editor, then reload the editor and map, redo a vehicle and see if it works.

    Thats all I can think of.

    Good Luck,
    Preston

    I'll give it a shot, but I don't think it's the vehicles themselves. If I drive one of those vehicles to another part of the map, they work normally, and bringing in vehicles from other areas causes them to go crazy. o_O

    LOL Thats just funny.

    I guess you've submitted a bug report cos the physics have just gone crazy!

    Sorry I can't help more but i've never seen anything like it so can't help. Try the official editor forums, they will enjoy those clips

    I'm guessing this was a SF glitch? http://www.zippyvideos.com/4608456642718266/daps_-_maf/

    Random missles coming out of the sky? Your BF2 is messed UP .

    EA/DICE released a very limited special edition version of the game with incredible "lifelike" graphics
