dorianR666 Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 i have seen this too. sometimes vehicle smoke is extremely wide or long, it looks like an oil refinery is on fire instead of a truck. no idea how to replicate it. CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600X GPU: AMD RX 580
dorianR666 Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) is something like this intentional ED? seems a bit excessive to me. they also tend to fly perfectly horizontally while all other smokes go more up (can be seen in these screenshots).

NightMan Posted July 21, 2021 Author Posted July 21, 2021 As to the track; I've noticed that the upload limit is ONLY 5 MB. Any Multiplayer track has easily more than that. What shoud I do then? A track file is just a Zip file with a different extension, so there is no point in compressing it.

Shadow KT Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) Alright, I think I got lucky and was able to capture this bug, while testing some JSOW A behavior in high crosswinds. I guess the strong wind helped to remove the bug relative fast, but when the target gets destroyed, initially, there is the above mentioned bug, where there is a giant trail of smoke going across the ground SMOKE BUG.trk Not going to comment on the inconsistent JSOW A results Edited July 21, 2021 by Shadow KT 1 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
Flappie Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 Yay! I'm able to reproduce thanks to your track. Thanks a bunch. I now can experiment to try and find the culprit (wind, weapon, unit....). 1 ---
Flappie Posted July 21, 2021 Posted July 21, 2021 It seems it's mainly caused by strong winds (25 knots at sea level in your track, but I also saw this with a 12 knots wind). The unit doesn't matter, nor the weapon causing the damage. And as soon as the unit explode, the flame effect gets back to a normal angle. Issue reported. 1 ---

Don't know how strong the wind has to be, but I've definitely seen it happen on servers with very little no wind. 'Shadow' Everybody gotta be offended and take it personally now-a-days
Flappie Posted July 22, 2021 Posted July 22, 2021 Don't hesitate to post more tracks if you stumble on this bug again. ---
