penguinking Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 ok, when im sniping from REALY far distances something odd happens, i take careful aim, have clear LOS, and target is standing still, in other words I CANT MISS! BUT!!! i do, i have also noticed at these long ranges that nps can walk through objects, i find this odd and am wondering if any 1 else has noticed this and knows how to fix it, bot the sniping glitch and the odd graphics, which i bet are related.ps both my agility and small arms skills are maxed and weapon is in perfect condition, in other words its not me its the game. any help is greatly appreciated =) regardspenguinking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsmanners Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 I think you're seeing the well-known sniper bug: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_3_bugs#Combat-Related Sniper shots may simply pass through the target at long ranges. I think what happens is that Gamebryo renders the target higher than they are in the actual position data, so when Havok tracks the shot, it never actually connects with the target's bounding box (and thus fails to register as a hit). To compensate, you need to aim a bit lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
