The only place I'm aware of this problem is on Azteca Lite, where the INF vehicle meshes (5 ton truck & hummers) you see offline don't show up online, but the collisions are still there. This happens because the map uses invisible collision brushes for the meshes, instead of the standard UT collision cylinders. Works great offline, as it gives you more precise collisions, making it feel like the meshes are actually BSP brushes. But unfortunately UT online code makes it think the meshes aren't visible to players, so they aren't drawn for clients. So w/ 2.87 I'm releasing a "fixed" version of Azteca Lite where I go back to the non-brush collision cylinders, and you'll see the vehicles online again.

If you're seeing this problem on other maps, please say which, so we can look into those as well.

Chasm: Red Playerstart, when you walk through the tunnels to the upper entry of the base, there are some barrels that don't apear online, but at the moment i don't know if they are only invissible or not in place.

Haha, yeah. I've seen some dork do that. I tell ya, if there's a way to cheat, bastards will do it. Makes me sick. The only other weird thing I've seen with official INF maps is, on ResearchSite, the hummer will float in mid-air sometimes. This makes no sense to me. Might be a problem at my end. Weird stuff.

Like I said, Azteca Lite will be fixed in the 2.87 release. I apologize for not testing the map online before it was released in 2.86. As for Research Site, the "floating vehicles" problem was w/ the MUF server settings. They had some destructible decos setting that was causing that odd effect w/ the INF vehicle meshes, but GNAT has since fixed the problem, so all decos should appear as intended now.
