💬 [Support Request] Smooth Turning Speed for Player Character / Player Controlled #2271

Open D3thw0lf opened 3 years ago

D3thw0lf commented 3 years ago

💬 Support Request Is this normal or is this a (known?) bug? Am I'm missing something in the configs?

vmaps, mmaps etc. all are enabled but there's something weird with the movement of players on different locations. Not marked as bug because maybe I'm just old and forgot that the movement was like that, back in TBC. x3

Just want to understand what's maybe wrong and maybe we can find a solution making the movement more smooth'ish (again)? ^^'

Happens also with default player models btw.

Maybe it's relevant: Extracted with "high quality" option in extractors

I'm looking for some videos maybe I can find something this related. :)

Updated with some refs (the oldest) I could find. In the 2nd Video you can "clearly" see a smoother turn of the character even if this lasts just a second it's much much smoother than the current movement.

Hope it helps. Maybe someone else can even find more stuff like this. :)

Its hard to see because the character movement isn't deliberate as yours but the foot shuffling was removed around the end of WoTLK I think. I vaguely remember it patch notes years ago. This channel (WoWHobbs) is full of old wow videos. I only did some surface level sleuthing but I do not think this is abnormal for this client.

Hope this helps.

Seems like they've fixed some weird movement in Patch 3.0.9 https://www.wowhead.com/patchnotes=3.0.9

Fixed a player movement error in which other players were appearing to move erratically when traveling beside them.

Also looked for fixes in the other logs up to 3.3.5a but found nothing related to this specific movement "issue".

The shuffling is btw. not my problem with it. It's just how "small" these steps, the char is making, (compared indoor and outdoor) are for a full turn. That's why it feels so "off" and not right. For me it feels like they need 30 Minutes "stepping" just to stand on the desired position. ^^'

In short: City (not every btw. there's some inconsistency here, too) = Feels right. Movement/Turning is fast enough. Outdoor = Feels not good. Well you have some slippery feet uwu'
