Tiger I graphics bug
« on: October 08, 2017, 03:54:10 AM »
The shadows from the Tiger I's tracks do not display properly on the wheels. On the screenshot below you can see a narrow band of shadow near the top of the wheels and then a lit area at the very top of the wheel. The whole of the top of the wheel should be in shadow.

Greebo, what version of the game were you using (DX9 or DX11)?

Can you duplicate that using the default skin?  Were you zoomed in?

We have not been able to duplicate this yet.

I think the reason I am seeing this and you are not is because I took the screenshot while in gunner position external camera mode. For skin screenshots I do this to get a more natural man's eye view angle of the tank. In commander's external view the viewpoint is higher up and the top of the wheels are hidden. Both the DX9 and DX11 versions and the default skin exhibit the same behaviour.

We did duplicate it.  That's a tough one.  Has to do with the zoom level.

Don't worry if its a hassle, its not going to be an issue in the game and I can just take screenshots from a different angle.
