Thanks for the reply. This is different (or at least I think) than the mob issue. This is 100% reproducible when one character views another on the grass outside of Erudin (and basically half of Norrath). It goes away at low FPS settings. It goes away with levitate on the character being watched. It does not occur on your own screen (watching yourself always works).

Kicker: it works on P1999 and never fails, same Titanium client on my end.

Being a software person myself, it bugs me that I can't narrow this down to a component. Since it works on P1999, it seems to be a problem with my server. But, what the heck is my server doing when a char is standing still and someone else is watching it? Maybe my server is sending updates too often? The wrong z?

You probably want to have a close look at what packets are being sent. Animation is handled by spawn appearance (type=animation,value=animation id). Sorry I can't be more specific right now, at work :/

From memory client first sends emote packet followed by a spawn appearance packet which the server just sends on to nearby clients.
