Mobs and players dropping halfway into ground

Post by Enchanter »

My problem: players and NPC's drop into the ground to their chest, line of sight is broken and I can't cast on either.

Some times they pop up and down from the ground (pogoing) and I am able to initiate a cast.

Have tried finding solutions/references other places - no luck.

I have a geForce FX 5900 XT OC video card, AMD 2600+ and 1.3GB DDR.
Drivers are the latest version 56.72 downloaded from nVidia website.
DX9 is updated
Windows XP Professional is updated

try rolling back your video drivers to a previous version. nVidia's drivers have been shit lately.

Having the same problem at times and I'm using a Radeon 9000 so it's not just nVidia.

Sounds like something other than pure video...

Rolled back to 56.64 and seems to happen less often now... If Radeon does the same, it would seem to be fuXx0reD collision code again... :evil:
