Water glitch (see through walls)
« on: May 02, 2006, 04:15:01 PM »
OK, I have only tried this on fort20, I have no ideas on wether it works elswhere or if it's specific to that map.

Anyway, if you go to one of the waterfalls in the mid area and stand almost at the flat edge you can see other players and items through walls.


My instructions suck, so I'll get screens in a second

Not very clear, but works all the same.

That works on any map, it's just easiest on fort20. I believe this has been known for quite a while...

It's a map bug, specific to that (and a select few other) maps.

Really? I thought it had more to do with the way VIS worked with the water...

seems like I remember on that map that if you look straight up in the waterfall, you can walk up the stream to the top also. Hmmmmm I'll have to go try it again

edit: yep right straight to the top

Well I tried at Niagra one time but they made me get outta the water cause I was disturbing the tourists.

It is, but it can be corrected by the mapper.  People shouldn't be making vertical columns of water, anyway.  It looks stupid.
