Re: Ask the Devs a question

Voice actors hired from the original LucasArts team? big_smile
I wouldn't know since you all did a great job on them.

About the AT-ST, any chance of fixing the bug where it stops animating and just slides along the ground?

Re: Ask the Devs a question

About the ATST, it doesn't always do it, but I can tell you that no it can't be helped due to the engine, Vanilla walkers even do it sometimes.

Re: Ask the Devs a question

Yeah, I think I saw that a couple times.

Well, as of now the engine is my #1 enemy.

DICE is just too lazy to fix their engines anymore. sad

Re: Ask the Devs a question

To stop it sliding just stop walking forward for a second.  It'll stop, stand still, then start working normally when you start moving again.

Re: Ask the Devs a question

If i'm in it alone i just switch seat, that normally cures it. Seems to do it a lot crossing the sand dunes on Tatooine. Any plans for a few new voiced phrases?

Re: Ask the Devs a question

Remember that million year old thread about the AT-ATs dropping off troops? tongue
I'm just going by lore here, and if that's not possible, fine, but I managed to find something on this.

In the wiki article, (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/All_Terr … _Transport) it states two ways that the AT-AT can deploy troops.

"Positioned in the center of the body section was a rectangular boarding hatch with sliding ramps where the AT-AT's complement of troops loaded and disembarked. An AT-AT unloaded its troops by kneeling to three meters above ground level until the boarding ramp could extend outward. Individual stormtroopers could also be deployed rapidly by rappelling cable."
