Soviet Firebase graphics glitch
« on: August 18, 2010, 08:26:30 PM »
Hi, when the 'engineer' units build the Soviet Firebase there is a serious graphical glitch. it is like a huge pink box around the 3D model on the ground with the words 'no (something)' on it. All other models and buildings are unaffected. I have the latest ToV patch and latest EF patch.

Also when the Soviets win, the banner for victory is German not Soviet!

Otherwise ace mod, glad I came across it, caught the CoH bug again!

I don't know about the top thing, but the Devs are working on the Soviet win page.
The Russians think there sooo tough, wait till the Ostheer comes...

I have an idea for the win page!!!!! When the soviets win, put the Wehrmacht lose page up, and when they lose, put the PE victory page up.

When you restart the game from the desktop the glitch seems to fix itself in terms of file referencing as I have not seen the firebase glitch anymore.

I have noticed some discrepancies with the MG nests however, the gun is a Vickers but no one occpies the building although it actively fires at the enemy. The number 0 is displayed on the banner.

The Stalin's Organ is nice work however the animations appear to that of rockets being fired from the Sherman Calliope as the rack does not elevate and the rockets do not fire along the rails but up then forward.

I am very much looking forward to the impolementation of the Othseer faction. I have given up on pc games for a year despite having a powerful desktop, it was Eastern Front that lured me back to CoH.

Katyusha was pretty much the first vehicle model we got in game, before we figured out the animations. It doesn't look completely ridiculous so it won't be changed until we rework the Soviet vehicles.

I don't know about the top thing, but the Devs are working on the Soviet win page.

We made quick Soviet win/loss pages in January just before release but couldn't figure out how to add them to a new faction. I believe only Relic can fix this problem.
