Out of bounds - clashina - 09-10-2013

Hey guys, I've just recently started the game and it seems like the walls are paper thin. You can simply walk through them in the beginning. I took some screenshots of the beginning of the game and places i was just walking to.

I was simply trying to play the game Sad

Sorry but where do I find the screens?


RE: Out of bounds - summit - 09-10-2013

I think you better upload them into ImageShack so we can have a look.

Hey there jens, here's the images uploaded to imgur http://imgur.com/KFhpwzo,vtkUVu3,MsSJtQ8,JjZNcwO

If you click on the third image, that's the wall you can simply walk towards and you'll pass through. I'll be streaming some of it as well over at twitch.tv/eyesonic

Is it only that wall?


RE: Out of bounds - clashina - 09-10-2013

Yea, it feels like it's simply a hole in the wall, there's a bit of friction first second and then it just gives away. I was hugging the wall looking up to open the thing and back right through it and off the stage and ended up in the lower stairs of the first floor. That area in the beginning of the game lol

Strange bug, I don't know, maybe fixable when you re-download the game.


RE: Out of bounds - clashina - 09-10-2013

I mean, the issue isn't in terms of my copy. It's the Amnesia's engine that allows for the ability to clip through walls. This was easily do-able in TDD. However, I simply wanted to let Jens know that this clippable wall is much much easier to access accidentally as a player than previous ways of going out of bounds.


RE: Out of bounds - jens - 09-10-2013

alright managed to reproduce, this can also happen in the original Amensia. Unfortunately it can not 100% be fixed, I can add extra collision to this spot but there will be other places like it in the game where if you push yourself against the wall you can eventually find a specific spot and go through the wall.

I'm glad you were able to reproduce it and understand the limitations. Thank you for a really quick response! I'm thoroughly enjoying the game so far Smile
