Another funny one to see is when someonelooks as if hey are not wearing clothes but in fact they are,Ive seenthis happen a couple of times, and even 1 time a I was the only 1 in the group to see it. Or another instance I saw a while back was someone was riding on their swoop but the swoop was invisible so they were just floating along in a sitting position. Gotta love the bugs.

I went out hunting with a few guildies today. I needed some meat. I decided not to use my Jedi powers at all, so I uneqipped my saber and equipped a carbine I had in my inventory, an ee3 or something.


Well combat went all well for a while, we were killing things all over and all was well. Then someone made a comment about my saber's blade colour. ??!? I asked them how they knew what colour my saber was as I had just changed crystals before going on the hunt. The reply was something like 'well duh you using it all the time of course we gonna know the colour stoopid."


Now I never once use my saber, or any Jedi power at all. I was shooting with ranged shot only, and using bacta shot from medic to heal. My force bar never left 100%, not even once.


I asked everyone in the group individually if they were seeing me using a saber, and they all replied that they could. Now we had been fighting in front of NPCs all the time, I had not once bothered with them as I knew I was not going to get vis using my carbine. So now, a big question, if the other players were seeing me using a saber, were the NPC's as well? Was I rocketing up the vis scale? Do I need to log out for 3 weeks again ?


This is quite a serious bug, if it was indeed generating vis. Has anyone else ever experienced this?

This is a common bug and not limited to Jedi... However I'm unsure if it causes vis. No one can be "certain" since there isn't no defined way to get visibility and there is no visible meter to see how much visibility you have. ---> Devs need to implement a meter and a document on the intricacies of visibility...

almost all vis theories state that vis is caused by usign force - if your force didnt leave 100% then your not gonna get vis - graphics buggs dont cause vis

My friend tells me of an incident where his buddy was throwing his rifle to KD people. I think he took some SS's, I'll see if I can get some to post.

This used to happen regularly with a commando friend I hunted with pre-CU. In reality she had her flamethrower equipped, but I saw her as unarmed. When she fired, the flame appeared to jet directly upwards from a spot right behind her and just below waist level
