Well after running around dod_forest for a while, the Axis had pushed us back towards our first flag. Well I wanted to defend it to the death so I went searching for the mortar, but nay one was there.

I looked on the minimap, the big map and It shoulda been right where I was standing, then I just kinda started spamming my use key in the general area and found the invisible mortar.

Just a question, am I the only one who is experiencing this? And if not, is there a fix for this?

Hehe, I was wondering too why the Axis had a mortar at their first flag and the Allies didn't.

hehe .... I also like the disappearing trees ... I wonder who put the env_model's to low in to the ground ... :rolleyes:

Yea the origin of the allied mortar got down into the ground and so it's not drawn. Didn't notice it until it was too late.

Re: the trees. They didn't get put "too low in the ground". All models have one point that all vis is calculated from. The model may extend up quite a bit from that point, but if the origin (where the env_model is located) is not visible, the model is not drawn. The only way to prevent the dropouts is to completely remove the model, make a new one with the origin up in the air (not a bad idea actually), or of course make the tree float up in the air :^)

Gotta love ouitz_tree1.mdl and it's "tree_high_origin" animation ;)
