As you all know, time to time monsters disappear but you can still kill them and see blood splats. I am just wondering if there is some sort of setting to fix this?

I remember that I had this problem several times when I used to play here. It's seems a problem via client-side connection. A reconnection would solve this quickly.

If this problem insists even with the connection at average speed. Then it's a problem via server-side connection and only admins can solve it, I suppose.

There are two possible reasons for this happening.

The first, and most likely, is that it's simply how the engine works due to limitations. To describe it in a very basic way, it will "hide" objects that it deems unimportant to help save bandwidth. If the monster is behind a wall, simply jump and it should reappear. If it's round a corner, edge round a little bit and that should be enough. Other than that, you just have to rely on the blood splats and/or your point counter to tell if you are hitting the monster.

The second option is the wrong network settings enabled. Under Options > Preferences > Network, you will want the Cable, xDSL setting chosen. Before I figured out I needed this setting, monsters and projectiles would often disappear on my screen.

Hope that helps.

Ninja.

Do you get red boxed or no? If you do it's probably ploss on your end

Oh this one... There is even a mutator that fix this "issue". It exists because the Internet Connection wasn't so powerful like nowadays in 1999.

Yeah, I have that network setting already, and I don't get the red box, so it's to do with the limitations of the Unreal engine. I was hoping that there would be something in an ini file somewhere that I could change to disable this limitation.
