Thread: ARC170 bug... just mine or everybodys?

My ARC170 has a bug where most weapons I load for the forward firing slot do not show up in the correct place on the ship. They appear to be floating in space about 20m to the left of the ship instead of on the wingtips as they should. This is true of almost all of the weapon designs, with the exception of the long skinny lasergun artmodel. All the disruptors, "classic" xwing radartip lasers, cannons, etc all display wrong... floating off in space next to the ship.


This bug shows upboth in the manage window on the ground as well as when I am actually flying.

Does anyone else have this problem with their ARC170?

Known issue. From what I've gathered, the bug revolves around most looted and RE weapons. A craftedweapon "should" work. It did for me, but it isn't 100% to work.

Just noticed the same problem with mine yesterday on an alt also....equipped a nice Scorcher Elite and one of thegraphics for itappears to be floating outside of the craft just beyond the wing. The screwed up thing is that it still "fires" from the correct wing mount position and the particle effect shows on the wing mount point also.



Nice thorough work on testing out this ship before releasing it to the live game.

It wasn't release like this. I got my arc within the first few days of the ROTW launch. It did not have this problem at all. It wasn't until a patch or two later.

Good news is, the fire patern is just an effect (all of them are, there is testing on this somewhere)... the guns look wonky but work just fine. (this is a big reason I don't use mine... I can't stand having bugged graphics... but I need matching blasters on my X-Wing wing tips, I am strange like that.)

Sadly enough, the ARC-170 was tested before releasing the expansion pack. I, along with many other beta testers, submitted numerous bug reportsabout the ARC-170's many bugs (and bugs on the Y-8), and none of them were ever fixed. Not even addressed.
