New bugs with the Steampunk pack
Not sure if this has been mentioned but I joined a SG with a toon that had the Steampunk chest detail. I went to remove the SG emblem and this is what I saw:
Removing the emblem returns it to normal, and hey, the bug is kinda cool
I think this picture is a good example of most of what's wrong with the Victorian face, both new and old. You know how a person with a lazy eye will sometimes seem like one eye is sort of off-centre and looking away? Well, both of the eyes on the Steampunk face are lazy. I don't know what that woman is looking in, but her eyes are pointing in two different directions away from centre, producing a very derpy look. MegaMan demonstrates:
Whenever designing a face with fixed, painted-on eyes, care must be taken to align those eyes such that they appear to focus on a common point at slightly before the maximal distance at which a player can be expected to actually see orientation of the eyes before distance loss of detail kicks in. This makes the person the face is trying to emulate appear alive, because the face seems more real as it tries to actually see. What we have right now is the equivalent of putting a T-spreadeagle character right out of the editor directly into the game - it's very fake very obviously.
Simply put, when I turn my character to look at me, I want my character to actually look at me, not look out both sides of my screen simultaneously.
P.S. Apologies for cross-posting, but I felt this was more relevant here.

I have someone wearing the Steampunk corset over a Mesh Tights top. This looked awesome, until recently. The back is clipped in three places, and the tips of her breasts clip through the front of her corset. Its like reverse-pasties. The entire top edge of the corset has chunks missing all the way around. It looks so bad - and so ridiculous - that I am about to take it off of the character in question.
I really loved these pieces, but the current clipping issue is unbearably bad.
