Squeezed/Stretched Bf109K4

[Joao611]

I have this B29 mod installed: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=140372

No other mods were in use at the time of this bug.

 

I created a SP mission with my K4 to destroy an US armed speedboat, did that, but then noticed I had forgotten to remove the B29 AI from the mission.

Went to engage it, but suddenly neither my throttle nor my stick could be used (except for the hat switch and the rocker axis aka zoom). Noticed the image was becoming weird, like it was slowly decreasing the resolution. Alt-tab'd and it was all still fine at the normal resolution, alt-tab'd back in and noticed the ESC menu was also fine.

Looked around and I noticed it was only my plane getting squeezed/stretched. So I started recording:

I should also mention I have the Steam version of DCS but yesterday tried moving it to my SSD to see if I could play it there, which is what I did. Did it because my HDD is painfully slow, only 50-70MB/s at best, and loading times for DCS are quite lengthy...

Does it do it again when you play the track back?

Yes, but it's different. When I destroyed the speedboat and pulled up, it seems I didn't actually pull up in time and I went underwater and then underground. As soon as I supposedly entered in the water, it started squeezing/stretching like in the video. I also couldn't get the external camera to work down there, could only move it above the terrain.

 

Also, I seem to have crashed in the water at first while attempting to destroy it, due to too much speed. Respawned with Ctrl + Shift + Tab, did another pass but didn't get enough distance to aim properly. It was at the third pass that I got clean shots on it and destroyed it, and then went underwater.

im sorry but this is one of the funniest glitches i've seen in a game

I've seen it before when we have the problems with the bridges, vehicles would warp up to the top of the bridge and would go flat at the same time and reform on the other side... so it might be somehow related.

 

If I can reproduce it when I get how I will see if its something that needs to be reported, or if it was just a random glitch... thanks for answering my questions though!

I saw this bug too with the B-29! http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=144452

 

Since I decreased the number of objects in the mission it hasn't come back.
