wonky physics

Post by Ironword »

Every once in a while I fire up an Inf coop SP map just to run around and shoot stuff for a half-hour or so with the fabulous SCAR-H and SCAR-L models. Very sweet. But there's a major irritant. Although the INF physics work in all other respects, when a skaarjgunner or trooper or whatever shoots me with an asmd or rocket, I get blown sky-high, and I mean literally--a hundred feet or so in the air, and then of course I hit the ground, splat, dead. This can't be Inf physics; it's totally unrealistic. Is there some setting I inadvertantly tweaked in Infiltration.ini which I can undo?

Open maps with brutes and skaarj with weapons are basically unplayable because of this issue.

without checking I'd assume this was just not considered and is therefor not (correctly) implemented.

Yeah, you're probably right. Now that I think about it, the Inf team would only have been worried about the effects their own weapons would have, and they don't have the same types of explosives that are present with Unreal/UT weapons, so the issue probably never even arose.

Thx for the reply.
