Summary: Vanguard trees/leaves in face (billboard X axis not locked?) Product: Wine Version: CVS/GIT Platform: PC OS/Version: other Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-d3d AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: nospam@thenerdshow.com
When walking around in Vanguard SoH, the trees bend down toward you as you approach and the leaves get stuck in your face, obscuring your view. This tends to discourage exploration of and participation in heavily treed areas. Turning down tree detail limits the issue to some extent, but it is still there. What it looks like is some sort of billboarding glitch where the rotation axis is either substituted or not being locked properly.
Todo: If I get time during my busy schedule, I may attempt to write a simple test case for Windows based on the NeHe tutorials and trace it. If you have more time/knowledge and can duplicate the problem, feel free. It does seem like it might be a simple typo, but where?
