Hidden Valley glitch ACTUALLY solved!

I found a REAL solution to the glitch in Hidden Valley where trucks run over guards. I used a FPS limiter and ran the game at 30 FPS... this completely kept guards from getting run over. I played through several times, and it worked every time. Without this, I played the level for 8 hours today, and pretty much every time a guard would get hit. But limiting my FPS stopped it from happening. Best guess, is it keeps guards or trucks from slightly overshooting their patrol paths, and getting in each-others way.

Good luck, and hope this helps!

I recall trying this and every other common framerate and had no luck. My only solution for getting AZ on this god forsaken level was to (with extreme care) run past the guard checkpoint using the first truck as rolling cover, and then taking off down the tunnel and jumping back into the truck as it left the same checkpoint and getting the the end. Essentially getting to the end of the level before the glitch can occur. On my AZ playthroughI have the glitch occur almost every time. Doesn't help that the glitch stops tunnel trucks and gets you an alert.

Yeah, running past with a truck as cover is how I get through. But I was still getting the glitch pretty much every time. When I searched for solutions, someone in this message board said setting to 40 FPS fixed it for them. That didn't work for me, but then I tried 30, and it completely fixed it - I tested it a lot. I got through the level without the glitch around 20 times in a row (I lost count a little), and I even sat hidden near the checkpoint and left the game running for over 2 hours, the truck never hit anyone.

I never wasted my time trying to get SA on Hidden Valley, much less AZ. Y'all have way more patience than me lol. I'd just yame-bait the guards into following me and then blast them

The problem with the trucks is that they have a very huge hitbox that you or the guards can die from. Now I know that 30 fps does fix some issues with the physics of the game so that could explain why this is happening.
