I have posted this on other forums before and I still havnt found anyone who knows why maybe someone here can help me :evil: I have a dedicated server and on maps that contain balcony rails or staircase railing,bridges (ex: remagen,southernfrance) I can not shoot thru the railing, I have tried this on different servers in which in one server I can and the other I cant, both containing the same mods which is just CKR and both was tested without it so there are some servers that you cant shoot thru the rails on and others you can, why is this?? is there something I can add in the config to fix this, does anyone know what im talking about, has anyone run into this before on a server? There has to be someone who knows why this is damnit!

More details. Are you trying to shoot through the railing from the same distance everytime? I know on a few maps if I am behind(close to) the railing shooting past it I have no troubles, however if I am further away shooting someone that's right behind a rail I usually can't hit them.

I tested distances yes on my I-lan server,, ok yes sometimes if im stuck to the railing like if you were to bleed thru a wall I can get hit if I just take like one a step back or away thats all the difference it needs and I cant get shot anymore, now I will go into my buddys server which is an xgameserver
and I cant shoot thru rails,staircases at just about any distance, and this is the case in about 75% of the servers I play in, now this is not too much of a big deal I ve been playing like this for awhile now but every now and then you get players who complain that you cant get shot thru the rails, or they say that they have shot you like 20 times and you didnt die, and youll have to explain that you can shoot thru the rails. blah blah some players think its a cheat otheres dont mind, anycase I would like to fix this, it has to be a server thing or something.

It possibly could be the maps, just like in some maps you can throw nades through windows, and break out windows, but in some your cant, may be just the texture cfg around the railing and the setup.

Nope..
What cleaner is talking about is using the same CRK mod on one server with stock maps, and using the same CRK mod on another server with stock maps has differnt results.

Cleaner's server with CKR 1.1, you can't shot thru the railing on Remagen.
On my server with the same CRK 1.1 you can shot thru the railing on Remagen.

Same MOD, exact same stock map with different results.

Cleaner....
Please correct me if this isn't what you meant.

Yep.
We have a practice server running CKR 1.1 and you can shoot through the rails.

I think we both compared our server.cfg files a while back when you asked about this problem before.
Our server.cfg were the same except passwords. private slots and things like that.

well damn i just removed everything from my server all mods and anything custom and still have the problem,,hmmm it seems the server is registering the rails as some sorta wall textures or something cuase you cant shoot thru em but if you bleed thru em you can get shot just like walls,,wonder if there something I can edit in the gamex.dll file to help this
