There is a sad bug that enables everyone to "cheat", the advantage it gives is more of a gameplay ruining aspect for me...
Again it has something to do with the mode the dynamic cam influences the bullet reloading..
or however you want to explain.

Like the no-reload "bug" when sitting in a bunker, i can´t start fixing another glitch with the camera view in renegade.

Some of you might know of those view glitches, i can only say that bug has become very resident on my client. Other XP systems with different hardware have it too, so i guess the solution of this bug can only be software related.

Reinstalling doesn´t help nor does the fact if you use renguard or any scripts. Resolution or details are not changing the chance that the view is bugging, also it doesnt matter what server i am drivning a tank (biatch or regulators).

I don't really get what you mean, Letz :-S. If you go out of your vehicle and get back in, this solves the vehicle lag problem.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

Normally, bugs like that are caused by laggy servers, and Renegade's poor netcode, try getting out of your vech, and then getting in it again. Sometimes they happen to newly made vechs as well, esp on Under.

This is a common and annoying bug...if you have any theories about what in the netcode is causing this, toss 'em our way Smile

The physics / the vech enter/exit procedure.

whom needs further detail; the change from person into tank object is bugging renegade. you recognize it when you enter a vehicule and see your gun still acting. Able to aim your own tank, bullets are deviated netherless they deal damage.

Yes you can fix it by reentering 1-6 times, no real problem there. I am just wondering why this occurs now more often then in the past?! And why are rifle / repair guns giving points when you use them WHILE driving a tank, looks like the server doesnt receive the info about just the fact you are using "Tank weapon" now..

All i know is that i can kill people while sitting in a tank, and BR just says "xyou killed some123 with Ramjet". The person-mounted turret of the tank just is uncontrollable, maybe does not deal any damage. Has anyone tried out more?

Holding a beacon when you are experiencing that bug and of coz simultaneous drivining a tank, wont shot it. Can´t really fix what noone knows, so need any info ^^ i don´t think it is a latency problem or lose of transinfo, would be a shame if reni is unplayable

I only know that the human soldier state on the client was not set from StateNormal to StateInVehicle. But I'm too busy to look for that bug's cause.

No, happens on RenCom more and more too, and there is no BI stuff.

Found the bug in the lag compensation code for soldiers and put a work-around in Resurrection. I'm currently testing it.
This is a client-side bug.

Good to hear. This sounds like a candidate for bhs.dll... Listen

This happens often for me but I just jump out and jump back in. I did not know that this is what caused the driver's repair guns to fire out of the tank while they were driving!

Give me a cent every time someone exploits this to repair their vehicle while driving it, and I'd be rich.

I also believe (without any knowledge of renegades inner workings) that it is the client not receiving the information that they are in a vehicle. The server is simply telling them the coords of the tank, and the changes to those coords depending on the user WASD input. On the client the vehicle and the char are stuck in each other so they can't move, and so you "lag" along as the server is attempting to "correct" your position.
