Experiencing distortion in player size when manning Higgins .30cal, not sure if this is a known problem but here it is. It's quite funny actually as we were making jokes about how he can just walk up to the beach and step on the German pillboxes.

It's because he was "oustide" the boat, as not "in" it. It does the same thing will most vBF2 vehicles, jump on the optics of a tank and the person will appear huge.

I'm perfectly aware of what you're talking about but he was actually locked into the vehicle in a designated position.

Looking more closely at the pictures.. what's wrong with your graphics?

Playing on an outdated contraption. Thank you very much.
Like I said prior though, I'm aware of the whole scaling thing you mentioned as I have played vBF2 and it's many mods for years but this was not a case of it.

Strangely I manned the .30 alot of times without this problem though. Can't really do anything myself.

Well to be honest it has only happened once. It can be a completely obscure bug that rarely happens for all we know but I thought I should just throw it out there, you know...

Did you photo the computer screen with a camera?

I thought it would be easy to tell that it is a camera photo rather than a screen shot. You can see the top border of the laptop in the picture. We were waiting out on the sea for a mass assault so I was afk and on my phone, just took the shot right there and then... but that's obviously not the point here.

Oh then maybe your graphics are fine lol. Just hit printscreen if you want to take screenshots.

I believe the LCVP (made by XWW2) was ported over from BF1942 to BF2. This has the weird 'bug' that when someone is not in a seat, you don't see him very well or at all. You may have noticed this in-game. Perhaps what you see is another side-effect, though I haven't experienced it ever.
