My brute's pleated skirt is clipping. Here are the examples:

Normal No Clipping
Clipping 1
Clipping 2
Clipping 3

And NOBODY is sexy til all the bugs are fixed. NOBODY!!!!

After that we will readdress the sexy issue.

That's pretty bad. I've not seen that yet on the characters I have with skirts. Can you post a screenshot of your body slider positions to make it easier to track down please?

I'll go check my pixie charcter to see if her skirt is doing the same thing and what her body sliders are set to.

What pet type please?

I'll have a SG friend check his thugs as we've not noticed this on them at all and my MM is shy of the second upgrade by a few levels. Also didn't seem to do that on the zombies.

Long Cape, Insect 4

This has been around since capes were introduced back when Goblin Queen was a hero. The transparent portion of the cape has an outline of the original cape shape which is apparent any time you have Flight, Hover, Super Jump, an aura, etc. on that highlights the feet/body area and you have the camera just a little zoomed out. Other people see it much easier of course since they're typically further away from your cape by default.

Please, please, please - Jay and Ian in all your uber sexyness, please fix this. This is my favorite cape!

I haven't noticed other capes that aren't exactly cut in the standard cape fashion doing the same thing, it seems to just be this cape.

Thanks!

Thanks for re-reporting this. I totally forgot about getting a screenshot off of Tanker'bell's wannabe wings This one has irked me. I think that the problem is the texture's Alpha map is just a tad short of the full cape length.

I saw this happening on test during the lvl 40 RV test, and I bugged it at the time. I haven't ever seen it happen on live, but that's just my experience.

For females: the Straight boots are clipping through Tight Pants when a character is in a combat stance. See here for example, complete with precision-drawn arrow

This is what it normally looks like when the character is standing up straight, running, or flying.

Jay is seksi!

Oh yeah, forgot to add: this is only happening on the right leg, back of the pants.

No doubt it's already been mentioned, but just in case...


The top of the head pokes slightly through the stylished haircut, so you can just see a thin line of skin down through the middle. It's been bothering me since, like, issue 4

The "Alien" face seems to be missing from any of the female head types... I wouldn't mind so much, but I was trying to remake a character from my main server to another and couldn't get her to look the same.

I haven't had the time to go through all the replies in this thread, but I wanted to report that the recent changes made to the "V" pattern Belt now breaks the look of the belt altogether.

Because of the change in the "V" Belt styling, it no longer rides cleanly around the top of any skirt which might be worn underneath. Instead the belt now rides High over the hips on both sides... and dips way down into ANOTHER "V" shape in the back of the model. Talk about overkill.

I don't know if this was intentional or not, but many skirt outfits no longer match the symetry of this new belt design and it really makes the female outfits a bit ugly when wearing the new 'V" belt. Plus it also gives the appearance that there is some 'sharp pointy V' now sticking down into their backside at the rear of the model. It looks like the apex is about to dig into the tail-bone. Ouch!

Is this how the new, improved "V" Belt is supposed to look on a model from now on?? I am happy that the clipping issue has been solved but at the same time... the high-hip styling and deep 'dip' in the back now greatly suffers the ensembled look of various outfits which previously had no trouble with that belt in the past.

Edit: Okay. I notice that 'WillyW' is speaking about the exact same problem with the redesigned "V" Belt a few posts up, which is exactly the visual/design problem I have as well with the characters who currently wear that belt. The sides of the belt are riding too-high on the waist-line and the back-end of the belt is overstated with the second "V" shape dip for all the outfits I am working with. This breaks the seams of the outfit's upper and lower sections.

Sorry - I have no way of providing a screen cap -

As of I7:
My bald (no hair) character now looks like he has a cap on the back of his head that is just a smidgeon above the scalp and it does not seem to react to lighting the same as the rest of the head (based on character swiveling tests). This makes it very obvious that there is something wrong when part of the head is in shadow and another part on the same side is lighted.

Help is appreciated.

Crewcut is missing. The crewcut style of hair I like used to be available but is no longer. My old character still has it, but if I make any costume changes to him the crewcut hair is replaced with some other hair style and I am not able to get crewcut back. It is also not available anymore for new characters I create

This is rapidly becoming my new favorite COH minigame. It's like spotting wardrobe malfunctions, except I get to take screenshots.

Crewcut is missing from both Male and Huge models under 'hair'(or whatever the default it called) and 'masks with hair', but you can still find it under 'pointed ears', for both, where it is Style 5. Jay is sexy.

Meanwhile, Spikey Hair has developed clipping problems on both sides of the head behind the ears for Male (and I assume Huge) except if you shrink the size of the poor hero's cranium.
Apologies that I didn't have time at posting to check back and see if that's been reported. Ian is sexy.

And I now swear that Male and Huge heroes are ... manlier than they were before, but I suppose that's nothing to complain about. Therapy, here I come.

Did you check under masks with hair? That one seems to have all the faces. If the alien face is not there please post an image so that we know what one you're talking about.

Argus? is in all the categories now (bug eyed side of head face), The chitin-alien-face is in masks w/hair and so is the Bio-organic alienish face.

Sure you do But it takes some effort on your part. I'll lay out the steps so that if you wish, in the future, you can post screenshots.

<ul type="square"> Screenshots and You[*]Enter CoX like normal and Open your options window. Go to Keybinds and scroll down near the bottom till you see the section that has screenshots listed. Make sure your printscreen button is assigned to the JPG option. If you do not want the UI to show up you can assign a toggle UI button that will turn it on and off for screenshots every time you hit the button you assign to turn the UI on and off.[*]Now that you have your keybind assigned, go to the area/thing you want to capture a picture of and hit Print Screen. [*]Exit the game and browse to your City of Heros directory (using windows explorer or whatever). Inside this directory will be another directory called Screenshots. The screenshot you took is sitting in here waiting for you to show it to the world. [*]Now go to this website and upload your image. Http://www.imageshack.us/ [*]Once the image is loaded you'll see all sorts of code in little windows for you to use. You can ingore all of that except the very bottom one called something like direct link to image. Just cut and paste that into a post here and you've just shared a screenshot that you made! [/list]
It is easier then it sounds

In boots, Pirate and Pirate Folded cannot be made black or any extreme color. The colors appear lightened or washed out.

Screen Shot:
Pirate Folded - Set to black but stays middle-gray.

For Comparison:
Folded Boots - Matte - Set to black and appears black.
Folded Boots - Shiny Leather - Set to black and appears black.

Oh, and Jay is HAWT!

Well - sweet! I was always wondering how so many folks had easy access to hosted images. I have taken a bunch of screen shots, just didn't know how to share - (I was a stubborn student in kindergarten).

Thanks!

The slant-eyed Alien face is missing on both Male and Huge models for Hats, helmets, and half helmets.

While the Alien face was previously reported in this thread as missing for females, it now appears to be available for every female head with a face, including Standard! Isn't that neat?

The clear cause is that Jay is sexy.

Maybe Ian is, too.

Female hair while wearing a bandana clips with most/all chest costume pieces that aren't skin tight, especially jackets and robes.

I would like to see this fixed so I can dress my thugs MM up like one of the punks to blend in in pvp!

Not sure if this has been brought up yet, but here goes:

Cape Issues

1: The cape seems to be unattacked to the mantle when you are flying. It's about 3 inches behind the mantle and not connected.

2: The mantle seems to not tough the body with certain costume pieces. I was wearing the Toga and noticed the mantle sitting about an inch over my skin.

I tried your suggestion and found the crewcut (buzzcut) hair style under Masks with Hair. Unfortunately there is no facial hair option under Masks with Hair (I always use facial hair). I also looked for the Pointed Ears option you mention but could only find Imp Ears, Vampire Ears, Elf Ears, etc. but no pointy ears. I couldn't even find pointy ears anywhere. What am I doing wrong And the frustrating part is that the avatar on the costume change screen seems to be bugged, it doesn't alwasy reflect what your actual avatar will look like when you save the costume change. Is that Fee Waived thing permanent, can I test and try to find the buzzcut with facial hair until I find it without being charged.

There is a bug while using capes in conjunction with the following on male characters:

Male-&gt;Upper Body-&gt;Chest-&gt;Tight-&gt;Armored Pads

Does not show the cape mantle. It displays the rest of the cape, just not the mantle. It dissapears when this top is selected.

[/ QUOTE ]

I'm having this problem too. It sucks cause I really like the armored pads and my dude looks dumb with the cape just appearing from nowhere out his back.

Djeannie made an excellent post a few pages back about posting screenshots- though I've already posted some of this problem so you might not need to.

No, the 'Fee Waived' is like a freespec. You only have one at a time and it is dissolved by the first use. The style you are currently looking for is missing, anyway, so there's no point in trying for it yet.
