bird people
skirt gone from tailor list-all categories
The skirt is no longer on the female list at all and the male list only has 3 options.

The first 2 are on the female template, the third on the male.

    Tights in male with correct inwards and outwards details.

    females with same tights but the detail is inverted.

    so who exactly is playing with the female tailor?

    and can someone please do something before too many more pieces vanish or get borked.

    Ah yes this one, I was told this has been a problem(monsterdaddy submitted this somewhere here); It's really a shame I wanted to change one of my character's skin tones but it removed the Arcane Tats from their face.

    mind you, I do like the inverted scallop one. make a good alien armour
    Inlay if you could colour the lines would be good.

    They broke the female model for a lot of options in the chest wear category. There is clipping near the left and right shoulder both front and back that wasn't present prior to the patch. I'll try upload a screenshot.

    inverted is in tights detail, not tights pattern.
    Pattern you can colour,
    detail just adds... well detail shape to the tights.

    None of the bugs have been fixed with the latest maintenance.

    Why am I not surprised?

    I'm not sure the inversion is a problem.

    I think the old version looks gross, like the clothing is pressing in a quarter inch all over the place instead of puffing out. Can you imagine wearing some clothing that is pressing in on all your parts like say a tight sock or a too tight head band or a bra that's two sizes too small. But all over your body? What would you look like when you take it off? You'd be covered in marks where you blood has been constricted, that's what you'd like it.

    The newer version of costumes looks like there is padding at the details, like maybe wiring underneath. The breast look like they peak and/or have support instead of the ugly indentation look they had for years.

    I'm not sure this is broken, maybe the old way was broken. Ill have to see if the tailor/game looks as good as the screenshots above. Yep, if you turn the models you can see that the details are raised instead of pressing into their breasts like torture devices.

    The other direction of the bump mapping probably looks ok on guys because they don't have big soft round mounds sticking out of their chests that should never be indented for any reason except a genetic trait that causes certain parts to be naturally indented or some horrible scaring injury or kinky stuff.

    It's still a bug.

    Female torso geometry clips through skin tight chest layers.

    This is caused by chest depth slider more than by anything else.

    It goes away even with a completely minimized bust size, but with completely maxed chest depth.

    In short, until it's fixed female CO models are sentenced to have deformed overgrown barrel ribcages.

    Or to not use skin tight chest layers.

    Oh, and it clips with cowl tight neck piece as well.

    Looking hard at the old and current version of the male tights, those look pretty damn uncomfortable, like some sadist went in and put strong elastic bands all over the suit just to choke off blood supply to everything.

    What it should have is support features in the details, and tight form fitting material inbetween.
    Like the MIT BioSuit
    XJKHShZ.jpg

    I'm not sure you can find clothing with deep indented features that match the old current version of the bump mapping outside of a bondage store.

    Look at that, little bumps, no deep cuts.

    Ain't no rubber bands squeezzing her

    Ok TRON costumes have deep cuts, but they have armor and aren't just tights. Tights part are a breathable mesh, to let everyone get a wiff of your programmer scent. Are you a User?

    Again details on tights are raised not indented.

    Here's the old style female tights indentation, it what is presumably a quarter inch of armor

    *snip*


    And this is a thread about bugged geometry clipping through other geometry that was fine before changes , not about discussing personal stylistic choices. Anatomy-wise CO models are hideous anyway, some small adjustments to chest layer is not gonna change it.

    Current torso geometry produces bugs with other costume parts.

    That's a binary fact.

    Working geometry vs not working geometry.

    It's a bug and needs to be fixed, one way or another.

    Either by reverting to the old torso shape, or by adjusting shape of all other chest layers.

    And knowing Cryptic's limited resources reverting to the old torso model seems to be more realistic fix than to expect having every chest layer adjusted.

    Least this game will stay with broken geometry for Hell knows how long.

    Bumping this thread. Cryptic please be aware of Birds. Yes. Birds like wearing costumes too!(And look great I might add)

    It appears that Beast Greaves (the little bracers on the legs under leg accessories) is another thing missing at least for Females. Maybe for everyone.

    hmph! first, the damn game kept kicking me out when I was trying to create new character, and now, the free item that I was using is suddenly not free! what gives? do items become p2u after a while? if so, why was there no warning of this? :confused: :mad:

    Known bug, unfortunately - when you first sign in from the launcher, many of the z-store costume sets claim to be things that you own when, in fact, you don't. Attempting to create a character using such a bugged piece results in either getting kicked back to the game's login screen (or, on rare occasion, creating your character sans the glitches parts.)

    The good news is that the Devs have actually acknowledged that this bug exists! The bad news is that we've still got no timeline on a fix. For now, I'd suggest that, if you intend to create a new character, you either log out and log back in without quitting the game, or enter the game on some other character and then return to the character selection screen.

    New issue: on live today, the bird people legs are also missing for females.

    Can confirm. Under Legs section, Bestial category, Legs, the Bird People selection is gone.

    ....Can a mod confirm that a Developer is at least looking at this thread?

    Cryptic, what's up with you? First, the male model gets all the additional polish (More varied animations, an actual proper animation for walking sideways that is not just a slow-motion walk), additional costume pieces (Irradiate Heads, Irradiate Jackets, Cyberpunk Chest, Superconductor Chest which by the way is just a blatant lie in our faces as the female recog vendors are still wearing them), and the female model gets... Gravitar. Yay for needlessly sexual clothing. And now this. Just removing costume pieces from the female model. Some people may tie it to coincidence but this is starting to just look like they favour the male model. Because this is outright ridiculous. And they are not fixing it.

    Because more lockboxes must be made. Money money money.

    A new tutorial is a step in the right direction of adding things. But please, Cryptic, you cannot let this go by unnoticed.
