Animation Problems

Post by Psionic_Commando »

I recently installed a mod that made my Warzone 2100 copy display awkward artifacts when a newly built vehicle is spawned from the factory. When I got rid of the mod the artifacts didn't go way. This may seem like something minor but having vehicles shoot down from the sky and then come out of the factory is really annoying, distracting and ruins the experience for me. I've tried reinstalling the game, deleting all folders and files associated with the game including even deleting my save files, to fix the problem but nope, still not fixed. Can anyone help me fix this?

1.) The "No Timer" mod that can be found in the add-ons sub-forum.
2.) Latest, as of 2015, May.
3.) Win 8.1.
4.) It's too fast to capture. It happens in less then a second.

What is latest? We offer multiple versions, so, that is why it was asked.
As for your specific problem,

Did you delete/rename your configuration directory? FileLocations

Deleting the configuration file did nothing. I suppose it could be a graphical option that causes the artifact. I'll mess around with the graphics options for a bit.

I've deleted all contents of the Warzone 3.1 folder at the specified location.

I've also fiddled with the Video options, in-game and I'm losing my patience. There is not one combination that will stop the graphical artifact but during my testing I did manage to stop it once and then it went back to producing this artifact.
When ever a vehicle is produced it shoots down from the sky and spawns out of the factory.

There is no possible way WZ itself would cause "When ever a vehicle is produced it shoots down from the sky and spawns out of the factory" That can't even be a mod, the factory spawns are in the code itself, and no mod can change that.

As for "graphical artifacts" that is almost always video driver related. (Though, having mods can cause some issues with that.)

Again, what game version are you playing, and where did you download it from? Give us the link to the actual file.

I've already answered that question, read my above post and I won't have to repeat myself. I've downloaded the game from wz2100.net, like everyone else.

Rather than rely on your hearsay please provide a screen shot.
I can't find said mod and in no way I can imagine what your talking about.
Now you made me repeat myself please refrain.

I don't like repeating myself about the fact that I can't capture this really fast moment in the game so I'll just have to live with this artifact. That or use Google to find a solution. It may take time but I suppose I'll find one. Thank you for your time.

I hesitate to get involved in this because I can see it isn't going anywhere. But here is a general hint for *anyone* trying to solve a problem. If someone asks for more information, it is because something is not clear. I can think of a couple interpretations for each of the "I don't want to repeat myself" statements.

Good luck with the game!
