Indeed, it was video lag. <br /><br />My theory is that the reason my swing animations bugged out on the old PC was that it's a very fast chain of animations. My video card was having an aneurysm trying to render them at the same time as everything else in certain areas, and so what I was seeing on screen was a subset of what it was trying to render. <br /><br />How you get your dude holding the sword behind his head and then taking one swing (out of the three I should have been seeing) out of that I'm not sure. But I think it's basically on the right track.Yeebohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08028940396189544294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711156850879162685.post-73658284397472807322009-09-25T20:11:30.733-07:002009-09-25T20:11:30.733-07:00Yeebo, that lag bit is all kinds of strange.

The only place I get it now is in city locations crowded with PCs, never in instances where it really matters. I suspect that's it's video lag that will disappear entirely once I get my main PC up and running again (any day now I hope).<br /><br />Minor changes that they make to the GFX client would affect me in ways that they wouldn't most users because I'm currently using a back up PC from the stone age made out of rocks and sticks.<br /><br />Thanks for the suggestion in any case!Yeebohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08028940396189544294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6711156850879162685.post-5556423053732775722009-09-25T06:19:26.896-07:002009-09-25T06:19:26.896-07:00That is a strange form of lag.

I'm not sure that your particular case would be fixed by it, but it is worth a shot.Usticehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16230915391581898173noreply@blogger.com
