On my map I have several stock gamorreans, a stock acklay, and some custom jedi. Whenever I shoot them in the face my shot goes right through them and doesn't affect them at all. I can hit them in the feet, however. I figure that I'm probably missing some memory pools but I'm not sure which ones, since the error log has nothing about memory pools.
Here is my .LUA's memory pools:

I've never experienced this problem but does it happen randomly or always?
When did you first notice this was a problem?(after which edit etc)
Is there anything suspicious looking in your BFront2.log?

Although this may not have anything to do with the problem, you should fix the spelling here:

the engine likely doesn't know what it is.

It always happens, I've never been able to get a headshot on any melee character on my map. The units with guns can, though. I noticed it started happening right when I first added the Gamorreans to my map. The Gamorreans are completely stock and I do not have DC: in my lua when I call for them.

I fixed the spelling, and it did not fix the problem. I don't know how it got misspelled like that.


Here is my error log:
I seem to have a knack for finding strange errors. I don't see anything particular that could cause this though.

The only thing I can think that might cause this is the fact that my map is one gigantic model with about 1900 vertices. The entire thing is a destructible building and its covering the whole map.

Edit: Also, I thought it might be worth mentioning that I can hit the acklay in its critical hit location which seems to be its legs.

I counted seven severity 3 messages. You might want to fix those before moving on.

i have never been able to headshot acklays in any mod or the campaign, their "head"shot location is in their center at about the height of a person. i have been able to headshot gamoreans, and i haven't tested custom jedi for headshots.

the headshot for the acklay would probably require alot of complex things to get it fixed. i don't know about the gamoreans or jedi.

If I remember correctly, the critical location for the acklay is supposed to be the leg joints.

Yeah, it is. If you read my post completely you will see I can hit the acklay in its critical hit location.

I am still having this problem but I have decided its not terrible enough of a problem for me to worry too much. The map doesn't crash at least. I should consider myself lucky it does not crash with all those errors I have.

I have given up on this and I've moved on.

Sorry about the confusion, but I was correcting Dakota who seemed to think that Acklay's critical hit location was a bug.

i just wanted to say that i ment the empty space right under their body, the spot you would see the green spawn rings if you are playing as one, seemed to have a headshot location, i never tried the leg joints though.
