I got a question, every time I chase a jet and I fire my missiles at it, they will follow and hit the jet but when they hit the jet, it does not damage, you can see the missiles hit the jet, explosion, fire, smoke and all that, but no damage what so ever, so I was just curious if this has happened to any of y'all or if it is because of my interpolation time that I have changed a while back because of the TV missiles or if its just apart of it or its just me thats having the problem, so if anyone could help me out of this subject, I would really appreciate it.

Also here is an example of what I'm explaining, I chased after a MIG few days ago, shoot all my missiles out and 3 hit and you could tell b/c of the explosion, but when I looked behind me in the fly by camera he had no gray/black smoke coming off of him.  Same thing happened when I fired at a J-10 and an SU.

Video? Sounds like a hitbox issue.....like usual.

You hit the plane model, but not the hitbox. Thus the client displayed the explosions but the server didn't detect them, which means the damage state of the plane didn't change = it didn't blow up.

Happens to me too all the time.  Dumb missiles sometimes read as a hit, but no damage is done.  Not much to do about it except chalk it up to awesome coding.

Hard to see it being a hitbox, since when you hit the model of a chopper but miss the hitbox, you don't get an explosion, it just goes through.

Hmm get a video of it happening, your description was still slightly vague.
