When you say, "In hl2dm, it's smooth regardless of the "smoothstairs" setting." It sounds like you misunderstand what I'm trying to say.
HL2DM is running the code from episode 1 that I pasted below. smoothstairs is already disabled when you're on an elevator in HL2DM - so testing HL2DM isn't going to prove whether this change is the fix or not - you have to test a mod based on the current SDK code release. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Spencer 'voogru' MacDonald > Sent: Tuesday, June 27, 2006 7:07 PM > To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com > Subject: RE: [hlcoders] Jerky Movement when player is on > moving lift/elevator. > > That only masks the problem apparently.
