Jay's Costume Bug Fix Thread

The word on the street is that Jay is sexy.
I must pass on also that as the operator of two Carnival related villain groups, that the desire to have players able to have the hip scarf or sash and patterned thigh high boots similar to the Carnie costumes is high. In addition, we'd like to see more of a comical nature, not just skulls and spikes.
In the world of comic books, most villains don't associate themselves with evil, but rather are just really bent weirdos.
We'd like to be able to make use of more of that type of items such as:

Clown noses
Comical shoes (extra long)
Corsets or bustiers
Tutus
baggy ill fitting clothing items of any kind
Large Afros (ain't no such thing as too big)
cartoony gloves

Yo Jay, you sexy beast...

I was wondering a few things. First and formost, i'd like to make you aware, as i'm sure you are, that large monster heads clip BADLY with, well, most of the tops I've found. The MA tops, the Jackets, ect, all clip really REALLY badly with my Lizard's head and head spikes. On the back, by the collar. Perhaps when i get home i'll try and post some pictures. I'm at work currently.

ALSO, I've noticed, that with Robe tops, like the MA tops, you can't pick a tail option. This busts my Concept, as all my other customs have a green lizards tail on them, but my MA top can't pick one....

ALSO, how hard would it be to allow another field just for tails, so we can have both a tail and a belt? Kind of sort of like you did for ears?

Thanks in advance, you sexy beast!

Yo jay, I have noticed a glitch with: Females/Skirts and short pants/Plain short skirt (the 1st on the list). Paterns no longer appear visible on this costume piece. The option for a pattern and 2nd color is there, it jst doesn't show up on the skirt. It was working about a month ago. Thanks.

I don't know if this has been said before, but the Bio-Organic skin type (for male figures at least) used to be able to accept two different colors - one for the 'base color' and one for the veins. Now I've noticed that the Bio-Organic texture will only accept one color (the base color). Hopefully, this was not intentional and is, in fact, a bug because I liked having my veins be a different color than my skin.

I've seen this posted about a couple times, but I haven't seen anyone post a screenshot. When I'm in the water, my lab coat and motorcycle boots go away (Screenshot). My personal force field is up in the picture, but its presence doesn't change whether or not this bug occurs.

And, lest I forget, Jay is sexy.

'ello all

I've noticed a discrepancy between the colour of 'tops with skin' and any bottoms 'tights' or 'skirts', where both are set to pure white. The Tops with Skin appear to show a little more skin than expected...

You can see the problem with poor WhyteShade - I was aiming for a sort of one-piece T-skirt:

At first I thought the tops with skin might be showing the skin colour through the top, but I found that changing the skin colour doesn't affect the colour of the top itself.

Jay may be sexy, but wants to get this fixed before the servers are flooded with Miss Wet T-Shirt clones

The padded armor has a problem when adding a cape. For some reason the cape gets sucked into the costume, so the top part of the cape is not seen.

Jay,
I honestly would prefer you fix the Display Bug in Icon first and foremost. On almost ALL my Heroes when I first initiate a costume change my Hero shows up displayed with all sorts of costume choices I never gave them: different Hair/Face/Colors/Options/Tops/Bottoms you name it!, very very seldom do I actually get to work on the Hero I walked into Icon with. I first have to "re-build" them and THEN I can start to add Capes or Auras or make small tweaks.

Any news on getting THIS fix completed?


Travel Suppression is this game's worst feature, well that and MetaHumans riding mass transit like tourists at DisneyLand.

Mandibles:
I've got a character on Victory that I went with huge form, half helmet and wanted to go with mandibles -- surprisingly the mandibles on HUGE forms appear to be overlayed with a skull design - with teeth going along the side of the mandibles and a nose hole on the upper central. Was this planned? The normal sized individual has a plain mandible, and there is no apparent option to change this.

Long hair clipping into capes is still a problem this screenshot of Kitty Baroque (sense a costume theme there? ) illustrates the problem. Unfortunately, Kitty ended up having to go with a short style instead of the long one she started with to make the cape work. This was just taken this evening:

I think this is a bug: the tailor is not letting me put the Toga on without a belt anymore. There's no "none" selection. Same with Robes -- but it used to work, and Togas look fine without belts (not sure about robes, but it should be allowed to have no belt).

If I get time, I'll add a screenshot of the beltless Toga and one of the UI not allowing you to do it anymore.

Hey Jay- My heroine Thunder Grrrl likes the bondage look- I mean the chains look....heh heh- BUT the chains for the women in this game are

weak looking!!!

As opposed to the male chains

Stole this from the guy a few posts above me.

See the chains need to be beefed up for the Ladies!!

Thanx o' sexy one!!

Plus, no screenies BUT the clipping for the belts with the huge bodies dig into the heroes belly- ouch.

Sexy!!

Woo, long time, no bugs.

Skin, mohawk tall (aka mohawk 1), mohawk short (aka mohawk 2), and topknot hair models appears to have attached "pates," which I assume was what had previously been seen floating just above bald characters' actual heads. Now, in some cases, this pate is visible.

I assumed the pates to be attached to the hair models because changing hairtstyles with visible pates changes the shading on the pate.

At first I thought this might just be a local rendering issue or something, so I popped in-game and asked a few people who confirmed seeing it.

This error is visible, identical in appearance, on
Female > Head > Standard
Female > Head > Masks With Hair
Female > Head > Pointy Ears

-It is slightly less severe when seen on
Male > Head > Pointy Ears
(though it clips thru the actual head, while the Female instances do not)

Also visible and clipping thru on
Huge > Head > Pointy Ears

Jay is Sexy.

i am a big supporter of wings, here are my ideas.

1. demon wings(obviously)
2. angel/bird wings
3. insect wings(butterfly, wasp, bees...)
4. tech wings(like personal airplane wings)
they all should come in various size options(big, small, upper back, lower back)

i also think there should be a jetpack option for those tech at's who wish it.
there could be a very low-tech looking version, where you can see all the metal pipes and the gas tank. Or, there could be very high tech jetpacks, think Jango-fett/boba fett.

also, how about those masks that cover up just the eyes, like the ones that robin(batman&robin) wears. Or a "V for Vendetta" mask(just a suggestion)

another thing thats been bugging me, is the fact that i can't change the hair, when my character has a hat. if i have a top hat, and i want long hair with it, im SOL!.

and what about having non-usable weapons that are just for decoration. a sheathed sword that can be placed on your back or your hip. Or what about a quiver for arrows that can be placed on your back. Axes, staffs, lightsaber-esque weapons. laser guns that can be part of your arm, or in a holster, or be your arm.

how about being able to choose different body types, like human or alien, or demon...etc. i would love to be able to make the alien from "alien." i have the right head, and almost the right legs, its just that the body is standing straight up. also, the fact that you can't change the look of the arms, how about long claw like, arms, or spider arms, maybe even doc-oc type arms(im just throwing random stuff out)

theres alot of stuff i would like to see happen, not that the character cusomization isn't the best i have ever seen, it is. but why not make it that much better. With someone as sexy as Jay, anything is possible.

This has been driving me crazy. Half of the new skirt patterns aren't showing up on characters anymore. In Icon it will still show for example that you have mini-skirt 1 with the pattern "flames" selected but your character will look as if she is just wearing mini-skirt 1, no pattern. A few weeks ago when I noticed the new patterns I went on a bunch of my characters and changed their outfits to use the patterns and then one day (I believe after a patch) half of the patterns stopped showing up. The other half seems to work fine. Please fix this.

Not sure if this falls into costume bug or color bug, but look at this...

Tight, patent leather top colors on costume screen

How top looks outside of costume screen

The top tiger stripe was (until just recently) very very light. Now, it's dark as black and I've tried two free sessions to try to fix it. Tried setting it to a new color and back, but that doesn't help either.

Any suggestions?

Sorry if you've tried this already, but are you in SG Mode? It sounds like your SG color is showing up instead of your normal color.

Forgive me if this has been mentioned before, but I've only recently started posting on these forums and 45 pages of this thread is an awful lot to catch up on.


One thing I've noticed that bugs me to no end is the glove option called "Sleeves" for females. This didn't used to happen to me when I played last year, but since reactivating my account a couple months ago I've noticed that the sleeves make a female hero's left arm look shorter than the right one.

Check out my screenies below. The inside of the right-hand sleeve has the color of the sleeve in it... but the left-hand sleeve has flesh color inside and creeeping outside the sleeve as well.

You really need to go back to the old V belts, the new ones clip and the old ones didn't.

Here's two of the new one.

And though you can't see it as well, this is how it was originally.

The Tech Crey Armoured Lower Body option for the Female and Huge models looks horrid. By comparison, the Male version of it looks spot on.

Here's a pic.

Note how the Male version's sides are lower and almost flat. Now note how the Huge and Female versions have the traditional Armoured "high" sides. The texture on the outside ends before the sides end, and so they're filled with black.
