Max Payne 1 falling through ground?

[Koko56]

Has anyone had this?

When slow mo diving the legs are falling through ground but only then. Walking around is okay. This does not happen if I set the NV settings to let application decide but then there is mouse lag. What I ensure in the NV CP is that vsynch is off - tripple buffering does not have any effect as far as I can tell.

Did a few searches but got nothing apart from various MP3 stuff.

Any ideas?

Some games have stuff like psysics ticks/updates set to the framerate. So if the framerate is too fast then weird stuff can happen (this was the cause of stuff like the jumping bug in Quake etc.). You could try setting a framerate limiter with Nvidia inspector instead of using v-sync.

Still get it - tried @ 60Hz with 58/60fps and @~ 75 with 75fps.

At 60Hz and 60fps I got the mouse lag.

I think that may be because of the lack of physics. Games from that time are just straight animations and don't apply physics to the skeletons afaik.

If you walk up stairs, does your feet line up with the steps?

Have not tried that yet and would not really bother me, it's just with this Max actually sinks so the whole world is shifted up altering how the game looks.

Really weird. :S

If I was in God mode I had these problems.

No just a normal game from Steam. :/

I will try a Russian version of the game from disk on XP since the sound fix for W7 makes background really loud compared to gunshots etc.
