Spearmen in Melee

[Jekyll]

As I am only playing The Long Road Mod, (I'm not saying that this what appears to be an animation glitch is caused by this mod) I wondered if anyone else has this also, I find that when I am watching a melee battle going on, my spearmen when they get killed, seem to go down and then get up before finally going down and staying down, (this process of going down and briefly back up (although not fully) is more like a flicker as its quite fast), anyone else get this? or know if its just that unit that has that problem?

I'm posting this here as this is the mod I am playing and not the vanilla game.

I'm playing as the Scots and its their spearmen that do this.

Maybe this is just a game glitch as a whole? I'd just like to know if anyone else notices this, I hope so as otherwise I won't know what to do to stop it just looks weird really.

eeer, thats new to me. ive seen entire enemy armies freeze during a siege once or twice, but nothing like that. sorry buddy.

Sorry to hear that you have had that happen, must be a terrible niggle for you when that happens, I think I'd be really frustrated having to put up with that :hmmm:

Not to worry about my problem though, I'm trying out a different mod to see if it still happens, if so, I guess I'll just have to live with it

Thanks for your reply though

Jekyll, I've seen that happen once or twice but only to a few men not an entire unit and constant.

It's probably a MTW:2 glitch since I believe this happens in vanilla as well.

Never had my army freeze during a siege but a lot of other weird things happen (though not as much as in vanilla).

Hi Xeno_cws,

Yes that is exactly what happens to me, so I am glad that it is a known thing, thanks for posting to let me know, much obliged

No problem, its just the engine "stutters" for a moment trying to figure out what animation the unit should play and getting it wrong. Nothing too serious

[Jekyll]

Good to know I can live with that, got no choice now have I

At least no CTD's so far

Had one or two when trying to combine mods but I was doing it all wrong, nothing new there then!

All sorted now and having a ball

Just going to try and add the dust mod next, have you seen that one? awesome mod by the look of it, just hope The Long Road will be ok with it

Cheers
