Just add me to the list of people horribly disappointed with the floppy waist cape 'trenchcoat'.

I like the trenchcoats myself. They are sort of Gambit style. I do think they should be a little less animated when standing still but otherwise, I dig em.
Maybe they can add a more billowy version later on (like in Sin City) and maybe they can add a cloth version as well with the back flap and all, but I definitely think they should keep the ones they have as well.

My second costume has become corrupted and the primary wing color has changed to that of my primary costume. It says it's the normal color in the tailor screen, though. Anyone else have this problem?
The Titantic Tiberian Fiend
Had a problem with the Supernatural 11 face. If I choose a second feature (stripes, makup, etc.) then I have no option to alter the color of the glowing eyes. The eyes default to black and cannot be changed. The only color I'm able to alter is the second detail features. Anyone else have this issue? I really wanted black tiger stripes, but didn't want black glowing eyes.
kinda dissappointed with my trenchcoat in motion. When I run, the tail shoots straight out the back, stiff as a board. While I'm not complaining about the style of the trenchcoat ( I actually rather like it), I am a little upset that I get this horrible stiffness when I move, yet when I'm standing still it ripples just like a light breeze was running by it. This is also in effect, rather humourously when i'm lying face down in the middle of a mob- just felt like pointing it out.
BTW- My character uses SJ/SS so it is somewhat of a constant problem (I use the SS a lot mor than the SJ).
P.s.- Those are both from kinetics (the SS and SJ)
P.p.s. gosh I use a lot of brackets (lol)
quick question.... is there really any hope at all they will be changed back (hair styles) or fixed to not be a butt flap (trench) or are we going to be forced to "deal with it"? i dont see Ray anywhere on the dev/mod/gm list so i dont know who to ask this to.
any help?

First, it's Jay. 
To answer your question, I'd say the trench coats look good enough that their basic design probably won't be changed. We can hope for more textures in future, but I wouldn't hold your breath for a coat that flows off the shoulders.
Going by the precedent of the skirt situation, I'd say we can hope for the old version hairstyles to come back, although there has been no official response that I know of. Let's hope it doesn't take a freakin year.
Apart from the constant clipping of the butt cape (trenchcoat) which is a known issue (usually around legs, during backward movement or when there is a stiff breeze), there is also a clipping issue where the cape meets the jacket in the back...you can see an indication of a thin line where the two should be 1 piece, but it creates a separation. Hard to describe, really notice it with darker colors, take a look yourself next time (movement exagerates the problem)
just one thing that is missing. It has been removed 
Bring back the nipples!!! 
Something else that I noticed when I went to the tailor to make a quick color change.. I originaly selected no sleeves and the V tail on my characters trench.. visiting the tailor reverted these to the basic tail and basic sleeves, costing my inf. to get them back to where they were originaly.
Need to fix that sort of thing as well, having to pay to have something stay the way you wanted it is not a good option.

Agreed, but I'd call this a low priority, at least for I8, what with all the tokens being sprinkled around. It does suck for those who need to make minor alterations though. I for one hate to waste tokens on those, but I have no choice when it costs me 2 million just to get my costume back to the way it was in the first place.
(A HIGH priority of course would be to bring back the old versions of the hairstyles that received major renovations: Straight, Flip, and Wedge! Let's have Straight 1 and Straight 2, etc. And no, I am not only posting to plug this again!)
The new hair looks great Jay! Keep up the good work!
Shhh...Do you feel that? That is a wave of Pity, the magnitude that of which can only be formed by Mr. T after being motivated by Richard Simmons. And it's headed straight towards you and "used to be sexy" Jay.
Mr. T pity's the fool that messes with the Wedge. (<- That means, bring back the original Wedge)

Not really sure if this is the right place to post this (ill post it else were if i find it, but how about some new skins added to the monstrous feet pices to match already exsisting coustume pieces, like stone, and organic for example
Where are the Samurai chest pieces located? For female? I can't find them.

Aren't they under Chest Detail?
[EDIT:] Oh yeah, bring back the old Flip, Straight, and Wedge, in addition to leaving the new ones in since Outfreaker likes them.

So they are. What a strange place to put them.
I have to agree on the new ears in costume pieces... if you choose elf ear, imp, fairy - any of the previous choices, they took the place of the human ears. The new ones are in addition to the human ears and ...look kinda stupid that way. I like the ears themselves, but not as they are with the human ears. If they (Sexy Jay & Co.) aren't going to change it, so be it, but as they are, they aren't new Ear options, they are just additional head costume options that should be listed with the tiaras, horns, old cat ears, etc... (sorry, can't remember the name of that tab off the top of my head).
<-- I'm a [u]Monkey's uncle[u]!!
Add a dropdown box to ears for "Human ears" vs "No human ears". I like having both, but there are certainly more characters who'd look better without the double ears.
I noticed that one of the latest patches has altered the appearance of the Wedge hairstyle to look a little bit better. It's not the original, but (in my opinion) it's still better than the first tweaked version, and I'm glad to be using it again. Kudos to the costume guys for listening to our grumbles.
Just quickly - I like the old "straight" hair better than the new one. If it got changed back, I'd be a happy panda. I like the fact it was lower/farther out - the new, fore-head revealing styling doesn't do it for me. It sorta looks a little too close to the head/scalp/face for my tastes...

Also, has something been done to the geometry of female faces? I was tinkering around with hairstyles and all the short haircuts made my character look like a drag queen. She used to have a soft, round face. Now, no matter what I do, her face looks incredibly broad/square. Even the Thin scaling looks masculine!
[/ QUOTE ]
I've noticed this as well. There is definitely something wrong with the scaling and proportion of the faces that no amount of fiddling with the sliders seems to fix. There used to be quite a number of the female faces that were quite attractive but now only one or two look 'decent' but even after adjusting them they are still too angular.
And count my vote in for adding the old hair styles back in. I haven't really taken a good look at the new ones yet but I just don't understand why it was thought they needed to be changed in the first place. They looked fine like they were and there certainly wasn't any complaints about them that I ever saw. If there were, they were definitely no comparison to the complaints about the new ones.
[/ QUOTE ]
Agreed on all counts, especially the faces. The last alt I created (a couple of nights ago), it took me an hour just to make her face look halfway feminine. This is really bad, guys...
So, have we lost all hope regarding getting the Straight, Flip and Wedge hair changed back?
I'm still upset about the loss of the old Straight.

Well, there are only so many times you can creatively post the same thing before you're in like blatant violation of the board's anti-spam rules. I for one haven't completely given up, but actual hope is fading.
And I know individual anecdotes aren't something the devs can take seriously, but I will say one more time that my Peacebringer is dead until the old Flip comes back, and she was the character I was going to take through the new Faultline.
It continues to burn me since it would be so easy to just have both old and new versions available.
Hey, I just had a thought - maybe we will be able to "invent" the old hairstyles in I9. That would be pretty hilarious.
Trenchcoats : Great Idea, horrible implimentation. Leather Jacket with waist skirt. Whats the deal here? I mean, it looks ok, but.. not what I would have expected considering some of the costume things you folks have come up with before. Also.. on the female characters, the 'waist skirt' flairs out over the characters butt.. Ok, she's a hero and has a constant breeze/strong wind blowing around her to cause the coats tail to blow outwards behind her? Dont think so. It makes the poor implimentation even more noticible.
Trenchcoats move from the shoulder and mid back area, not the waist, unless you belt them closed (I know, I have a few, even a leather one). They do not flair out over you rear.
The hairstyles, much like on the leather jacket, seriously clip with alot of hairstyles at the shoulders/neck. Most noticable on Straight, Bandana, and saddly enough Duster.
If you can fix them up, please add a 'denim' looking one, or give us some options to add some patterning to them, like a blend or a wash. Cloth professional style coats would be easy to add once you've got it working right too.
On Hairstyles : Said it before, say it again.. these are horrible. Please put back the old "I do NOT have a giant forehead' modles. If I went to my stylist and she did that any of those to my hair I'd have her shot. Simply horrid. I'm all for fixing clipping issues and such, but those are just ugly. More hairstyles? New Hairstyles? Go for it! But please, put back the old ones, and add, not force us to go with these.. things.
On a politive note : Love the goggles up, fits very will with my techie blaster's look
Oh, with the belly shirts, could you add in one thats a bit longer, like the faded line one (I think thats it) in coverage? And what about low riders/hip huggers? You've got a good start with Disco on the legs, how about that sort of option added to pants and general tights without the space between the shorts and the leggings?
Lastly - You added things like Athletic shorts.. how about some mid calf and ankle height shoes that will actualy work nicely with them? I dont know, but I dont go to the gym in boots or slip ons, and I would never wear socks that went to my knees with sneakers..
