Coincidence is that it happened to him while he was recording. REAL coincidence was when it happened to me with a Sharc on Lv 14. I was recording too and it was laggy.

Perhaps the fact that you were both recording when this happened is a clue. Possibly something about recording or being laggy while recording triggered a fluky condition.

IMO that's the point. In special cases this can happen.

Yeah, I think we nailed it, that could explain for everything. :o

I still think it's in another dimension.  ;)

I see quite a discussion turned up.

Well, just to clarify things - It didn't happen when I was recording, but the other way around. It happened, I started looking for a clue on the Internet, finally decided to record this entire incident. For some reason I attract bugs, as you can see in Far Cry 2 and Supreme Commander videos on my Youtube profile.

I found my Descent 3 discs, used the same configuration of everything, I basicly rebuilt previous installation... not just reinstalled. I started the game, got to level 4, and the Thief was fine, not bugged. So I guess it's either bad loading, resulting in corrupted save? Or what you guys were talking about.

This'll probably just end up as one of those unsolved mysteries of life.

Like...do aliens really exist?

Whatever happened to Amelia Earheart?

What is the meaning and purpose of life, the universe, and everything?

That sort of thing. This'll be right up there with the top ten. :P

Descent 3 is littered with bugs, not all of which the community is aware of. It needs a serious code revamp, but that's not going to happen, at least right now.

The answers are out there:  Is President Obama an Alien ---  a Real Alien?

What is the meaning and purpose of life, the universe, and everything?

Whatever happened to Amelia Earheart?

Voyager found her (http://www.startrek.com/startrek/view/series/VOY/episode/68858.html).  Has to be true.  I saw it on TV.

I stand corrected. :P

Except for the meaning an purpose of life. You know the answer...but do you know the question? ;)
