hit sprites
« on: April 02, 2008, 08:00:42 AM »
Since the patch I have been having problems hitting planes. but now i realized i think i have been hitting them part of the time with no hit sprite showing up. I have shot down several planes, watching them fall apart, without seing a single ping. this has happened with planes and gvs (me in) them. although I think some hit and do no damage also.

I have been seeing that since before the patch. It has become a lot more common after the patch. Even giant-caliber cannons (30mm, 37mm, 75mm on b-25H) often show a small hit sprite (NO fireball!!) or nothing. You see the damage, and you get the kill message, though.

EDIT: A lot more common, but still not all the time, I mean. I do see hit sprites too, but sometimes I know I get hits and kills, and get no fireball for my results.
