DoD:S bugs?

[ch33s3r]

I apologize in advance if this is a noob question, because I am very new to day of defeat:source. But I am wondering if anyone else gets bugs like me.

One of the bugs I get is I see people running around crouched. Well, they aren't exactly running, they're more sliding around like they're on ice or something. Is this a glitch in the game that some people exploit or is it just some weird bug?

Another thing that will sometimes happen is all of a sudden someone on the opposing team will show up as if standing out in the middle of nowhere staring off into the distance (or at a wall). This isn't they're ACTUAL position, because when i shoot at them (trust me...i'm hitting them), nothing happens. However, when the actual person (not the ghost) shoots, the ghost shoots as well. So apparently the movements and actions of the person still show up in the "ghost", but they don't move around. They just sit stationary in that spot. This leads to being killed by "invisible people" because the ghost may be somewhere on the other side of the map, while the actual person is right next to you shooting you in the face and there's nothing you can do about it...except die.

If there are any known fixes for these bugs (if it's just me or something), or if anyone has any ideas what may be causing it please let me know.

Thanks,

These sound like you may have some deep seated emotional problems you are projecting into the game ... "someone on the opposing team will show up as if standing out in the middle of nowhere staring off into the distance..."

Nah, just kidding... Those are typically video card type glitches...

What card do you have and do you have the latest Video Drivers for it ??

i haven't seen the ghost thing yet..
but yea the ice sliding prone is DOD:S bug, its funny seeing an MG proned sliding all over the map. but their really just walking normally, just a graphic bug.

I have an Nvidia Geforce 7600 GT, and yeah I guess i haven't downloaded the drivers lately. I just checked the date of my driver and it says 12/5/2007. I'll try updating that and see if it helps. Thanks :)

I have gotten this, but only on Flash. It was at the Axis 2nd flag, near the tank. I was shooting at this "ghost", and all of a sudden the real one showed up behind me and killed me. I was quite confused.

That swimming around on the floor is a real glitch they need to fix... I had heard of it on the Admins mailing list, but I got into that mode last night and it is crazy, you are prone but you can move at sprint speed unlimited, all the while shooting as prone..

This bug seems to affect you alot Cain. I've noticed frequently since starting to play DoD:S that your always sliding around on your stomach. :D

Just tonight I found a possible bug.

When in spawn, the numbers keys on my keyboard don't change the weapon. I can move just fine, and use the mouse scroll through the weapons, but the numbers keys don't work. After exiting the spawn, everything goes back to normal.
