Daniel got most of this, but he's right, this does not happen on
Windows. I tried both last night. On Windows the spray on a Thompson
bucks pretty much straight up. On Linux, the gun moves up, but the
spray moves wide right (not even close to where the muzzle is
pointing). Same with the MP44 except it goes even wider right. It
also doesn't seem to matter if you have it auto or fire fast on
semi-auto. If you're using sights and fire fast the spray goes wacko.
Spray is a lot more consistent without the sights. My main complaint
is that I do use ADS with the MP44 a lot since it basically is an
automatic rifle, and I like being able to hit things far off. This
isn't a big complaint, though, because when I do that I'm usually not
firing fast, just a couple slow shots.<br>
<br>
Anyway, I've seen at least 1 league that has decided not to bless 1.3
for league play because of this problem and the number of Linux
servers. Not sure what's different in the Linux binaries, but
something sure it... Hopefully we'll get a quick fix.<br>

<pre wrap="">Does this happen while just holding down the fire button or does it happen
while taking single shots? Either way weapons do have recoil and expecting
to have your weapon return to the same spot after every shot is crazy. If
you want that kind of control then use a rifle not and smg. Not trying to
start a flame here but just trying to bring a little sanity. SMG's are not
rifles or sniper weapons, they are by nature somewhat inaccurate.
Does this not happen in Windows servers?
I was just playing 1.3 on a Linux server last night and didn't notice any
unusual characteristics with the smg's.

<pre wrap="">It really needs to be addressed NOW. I hate to sound harsh but it's
true. I patched 12 servers yesterday (running on 4 computers, including
editing configfiles), there's no way I'm going to revert to 1.2 again.
I bet people will ignore linux servers until it's fixed.

<pre wrap=""> Any idea when this might get addressed? Please don't tell us 1.4.
Ladders are holding off going to 1.3 because so many groups on those
ladders have Linux servers. I hate seeing these things that are Linux
only and make Linux like like the ugly step child as usual. Ryan/IW,
Thanks for all your hard work on the Linux side!

Just tested this on our Linux 1.3 server and its true.
You shoot a MP44 at a wall when looking down the sights and by the end
of the clip, the bullets are hitting things about 45deg to your upper
right; so far right, you can't see where they are hitting.
PPSH is slightly but consistently hitting to the left.
Thompson is slightly but consistently hitting to the right.
I've put some screenshots up for you to see...
