They need to fix that. !! I just got an Idea. Why not destroyable sand bags? Make them 3d models and stack them up

What is that supposed to mean? "They need to fix that"?
This bug is not a PR exclusive bug and it is NOT something "they" can fix. It is strictly a problem on the user end of the line.

And like I said, this bug appears on most other mods as well as vanilla BF2 so it's NOT PR exclusive.
Now, PR is a notorious resource hog since the devs are trying to cram every little erg of energy out of the game. This is why the shiny sandbags bug may be more obvious and happen to more people using PR, but it's still NOT something "they" can fix.

Blake is right it involves the graphics card driver at the Client end and is not related specifically to PR
sadly its just one of those things you have to accept or be lucky enough to find a set of Graphics drivers that solve the problem

PR cannot solve this problem nor is it a problem the Dev team need to acknowledge as a problem (as its not a bug or fault with PR)

it is a BF2 issue and not a PR issue. It dose happen in vBF2 but for some odd reason very infeaquantly. How ever it happens on mods more and the only way to fix it is to clear your cache and then reoptomize them on load and hope it fixes it. some times it dose, some times it dont.
