OP MatheusMartino apprentice Joined: Nov 2009 Location: Brazil	Since i started play this game i always thought if the animation i see when my character climb stairs is correct. I don't know how to explain it in english, thats not my native language. Just download that movie i recorded with Fraps and see for yourself. http://rapidshare.com/files/318755769/dv2_ani_stairs.7z or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUVDb-31_ok I want to know if it is right? Everyone see it that way? If that is right, i realy like if the developers add a smother animation there. Last edited by MatheusMartino; 10/12/09 04:40 AM.

Not that it matters, though, as I don't have the game, and don't recall much stair climbing in any gameplay videos, so couldn't tell you if what you see is normal.

Thanks for it, i will test that link, but i posted one youtube link now, can you take a look at it? EDIT: I deleted the mediafire link, it was broken.

It isn't as noticeable with a high camera angle, but certainly stands out when the camera is near horizontal. EDIT: If that is what the animation looks like for everyone, I hope the North American release and next patch fixes that. The second German patch improved some animations, so hopefully they did another pass looking for problems. It is not a huge deal, but it does stick out, and makes the game look less polished.

My machine is slow, because of that the movie recorded with fraps looks like if it has "cut" some frames. Runing the game without recording the movie make the strange "bob down and back up", as you said, more noticiable. Last edited by MatheusMartino; 10/12/09 04:48 AM.

There is some slight clipping in each frame but nothing that is worth complaining about. I probably just don't have as high standards as you do but if that's all your problem is I wouldn't worry about it. and btw....I don't get the clipping but I have a: Intel E8500 dual core ATI HD4870 4gig RAM windoze XP Creative X-Fi audio and some other blah blah...... what do you have? make sure there are no programs running in the background when playing the game. I would normally recommend you install the latest video drivers but if you have an ATI card I don't recommend that as I have found their latest drivers to be problematic.

Processor: Intel Celeron 420 1.6Ghz (Single-core based on Core2Duo) Memory: Generic 2GB DDR2 333Mhz VGA: ECS Geforce 8600GT 256MB PCI-E OS: Windows XP SP3 32Bit The problem i see and you can see in the video is that the character climb some laders of the stair, then it "shakes up and down", then climb more laders and "shakes up and down" again.
