Sinking Spiders

Unread post by Rawr »

My Skitterflame keeps sinking into the floor when I stop moving. He does it everywhere. He normally pops right back up, but he sometimes get really far down and I have to move to get him back up. Anyone else having sinking issues? :mrgreen:

I've noticed that the back legs of the flame spiders sink into the ground when they do their idle animations, yes. None of the other spiders seem to have this problem except them.

I RP'd that away; Kirix is just so hot his legs melt into the ground and he periodically has to pull 'em back up.

Hah, that's the *exact* same thing I said to myself. :lol:

Yeah, seems like there's a slight animation glitch with these models. It only occurs when the spiders do their idle animation of cleaning their front legs. Hopefully someday they can look into fixing it, but I doubt it's a priority right now.

I think I was in Orgrimmar with wee Kirix, when I started to notice him going "Just cleaning mah legs here.. Oh no, oh no, oh, going down-Aaah all better now. ... ..Just cleaning mah legs here.." It seems to sort itself out sometimes if you move a forward a little bit though.
