Grey Wolf 0 Posted April 13, 2011 A while back a friend and I found a interesting glitch. Here was the results of the physics engine freaking out. Enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kireta21 13 Posted April 13, 2011 That's not glitch! You just discovered another "haunted house" from Animatrix :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4AfCH5AfQA I wonder why Agent Smith haven't shown yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rangerpl 13 Posted April 13, 2011 It's a beta feature, the next update to ARMA will feature space warfare (Strategic Defense Initiative, Almaz space stations, etc). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ArmAriffic 10 Posted April 13, 2011 thats how people go to heaven, god picks you up in his pimped out apc then destroys a building and drives into it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
max power 21 Posted April 13, 2011 This video is old. This is not a fault of the physics engine, but an improperly configured custom addon. The physics engine is not the most complicated thing in the world but it's not that bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coopr 10 Posted April 13, 2011 When you would post that BUG on cit they will make it a feature request. Because the way physics work right now is totally realistic and desired effect. Especially the flipping over rocks took the devs al long time to implement. Don't think you would see that changed in a short while ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andersson 285 Posted April 13, 2011 Its very realistic. Numerous documented situations like that in the balkan war and desert storm. [/fanboy] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
max power 21 Posted April 13, 2011 The rocks in Takistan are an acknowledged issue AFAIK. Legitimate criticisms of the physics engine are good but this is not one. The issues seen in the video are related to user content. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rough Knight 9 Posted April 14, 2011 That was the old destroyed Trampoline Factory, which explains why you where bouncing. thats not a glitch actually, it is one of the only exports from Cherarus, world class tramps : ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CarlGustaffa 4 Posted April 15, 2011 I thought the music was glitchy'er than the physics. Sounded like Amiga protracker tune with ST-01 and ST-02 :D (Sorry, couldn't resist :D) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basic physics is picking up a skull in Ultima Underworld, throwing it and seeing how the skull sprite ricochets off walls and slides on the floor before stopping.

Sure stuff fall down, cars stay on the roads and helicopters stay in the air. But it's not real physics. Planes hitting the ground rotates in random ways, cars landing on 2 wheels will slowly (like a feather) land on all 4 wheels. A bus with no wheels touching the ground, will still move forward if the wheels are turning, as long as any part of the bus is touching something. The wheels are not moving the bus. The wheels are just turning with the bus' movement. Eg. if you make a script you put a car in the air, and give it an impulse forward, the wheels will turn as fast as the car is moving. http://www.arma2.treesoft.dk/videos/BadPhysics1.wmv No object in any of the games behave anything like they would in the real world.

Defunkt 431 Posted April 15, 2011 LOL, did you witness the physics in OFP:DR? fHdU9v05wqU And it uses Havok, so much for real physics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's simply a bad implementation. 76 said: There is always dragon rising or red river for you. Oh, yea, because Dragon Rising is a physics engine for ARMA 2. Retard...
