Just discovered a minor but stupid "bug" in ARMA CWA. Some of the object files seem to be corrupted or something. As OFP veterans know Resistance added a lot of content including new buildings. Well, some of those buildings are corrupted in the CWA release.
I'm talking about the "big" apartment buildings which you can find in Petrovice on Nogova. You can enter those buildings, shoot out the windows, open and close doors and even use a ladder to climb to the roof. Sadly in the CWA release those buildings seem to be corrupted. From the outside they look like they are completely solid structures which you cannot enter, even the windows are just textures. However, the object data is still the "interactive" one. You actually can enter those buildings, use the doors and the ladders but there's no textures inside, when you enter it looks like you're floating and hitting invisible walls.
Anybody know what's up with that and how to fix it? I presume that grabbing the files of the original Resistance or Operation Flashpoint GOTY release should do the trick but a) I don't have access to them right now (my GOTY retail box is at my parents' place which is kinda far away) b) I don't know which file contains the buildings and whether just replacing it won't screw a lot of things up since they are packages including lots of objects, some of which may have been updated for CWA (in a good way, unlike those apartment buildings).
