In the rally and towns not sure about hollywood you have to click the arrows instead of just walking over them not sure if thats a glitch but its easier to just walk

In virtual Hollywood you don't start where you normally start out at which causes some serious navigation issues. Considering you can't walk through the tree, or the poles. (never could with the bench so don't care much about that)

Very laggy, the walking is still weird despite path finding is off..
can you guys add options for us to change the quality? and maybe so zooming works better with flash space?

Thanks for posting this sticky, Narumi.

I'm not sure if anyone else is getting this, but in Rally I can no longer view the car's owners when I click them. Also, my own car doesn't stay parked in the spot I placed it in, so when I click other vacant spot my car automatically goes there.

also in the convenient store that corner near the exit you cant really go through you just sorta get stuck and cant move

I can't get into the house in Virtual Hollywood, it just gets stuck at the loading screen.

I posted this in another glitch thread but since it's not in your list yet:

Quote:

Something with car placement is glitchy in Rally. I was clicking lots of parking spots and over time my car changed into something different. One time there was a ship under my UFO. Then one of those Robot things. Then my car turned into someone else's pickup truck...

add: This happens when I place my car over a previously vacated spot

I could even see it happening to other people

The car on the top most layer is the actual car that's there.

I am speaking, shut the f*ck up!

So Far, the new Rally, Is very very laggy, and when I move my legs are insane, and sometimes I'll get stuck in certain spots. Nor do I really like the look... I like the old look...

You may continue...

The tiny arrow where the Taxi used to be doesn't work at all. For me at least.

And walking around, theres random areas you have to try and shift around blindly to keep walking (a big one being right before the arrow in the main room in the upper right corner.

i feel that the "party" room in VH will be laggy for some, but it is an ok change

Another issue in virtual hollywood is when you walk around you notice the same people as you change from area to area. You may be switching locations, but it seems like you're just mixing servers. Don't understand how the general servers work, but when you initially join and walk around you see the same people around.

Edit: Better clarity on the issue
With the new layering system (much like zOMG) it makes it hard for people to find other people in this new system. not to mention when you walk around you end up seeing the same person in multiple areas. They're not moving, but you are.

I'd really like to lower the quality to reduce lag but it's no longer available. Without it lag is incredibly rampant for me and there's nothing I could do other than close window to be rid of the lag.

Edit:
When I click on add ignore, a new window opens to their profile rather than the usual "are you sure" confirmation pop-up. I have no interest looking at their profile, I just don't want to see what they post in the flash hangouts.
