This build is scheduled to hit PTS at 4:30pm, 7/22/2014


Release Notes for FC.31.20140602.24:


Preview:

  • Ninja Mask: The male version has been thickened to work with more short hair options.

  • The Psionic Arachnid back piece has been moved closer to the back, and an alternate version has been added that is higher up the back. You will need to use the unlock item again to get this extra piece.

  • The Psionic Dragon Wings now use the correct channel for glow.

  • The Psionic Dragon male hips piece had a piece of geometry clipping through. Fixed.

  • The male Jackal head's materials no longer have skin.



Release Notes for FC.31.20140602.23:


Preview:

  • The Psionic Dragon costume set has been added to the Debugger. This set was inspired by Necratech009's entry to our Design a costume contest!

  • A Ninja Mask has been added to the Gold Bonus Vendor as the reward for August 2014.


Other:

  • King Sekhen's Lockbox now has the "Booster Box II" with XP Boost Plus instead of the older "Booster Box" with XP Boost - 1 Hour.

  • Added a new pattern option to the Jackal head. Added two new pattern options to the Feather Mask. These awesome new patterns were designed by community member Kaiserin!

Please stay on topic in this PTS thread. We use bug reports from this thread to decide whether a PTS build is ready to go live, and so we need to make sure we're seeing everything in it. Please do discuss the changes, but if you find yourself writing about something that isn't specific to what's on PTS, then that should probably go elsewhere.

In particular, do not report bugs from the live game in this thread, unless they are impacted by changes in the PTS build.

    Can't seem to find the feather mask AT ALL in the tailor

    Search for feather brings up nothing and its not listed, pretty sure this was given out by the debugger at some point in the set and I unlocked it

    It seems everything that's a C-store set isn't present in the tailor, which is making it hard to test.

    BUG
    LIVE/PTS

    The metal material for the arcane tattoos leg options on female character models uses the leather material texture instead, i reported this bug in the last PTS thread..so simply put Y U NO FIX.......and sorry if it comes off as rude, this bug is preventing me from making a certain character that i have in mind.

    Pic related, it's the bug

    oh, and the ninja mask is missing from the test vendor.

    The lower half of the Arcane tattoo set has a lot of things wrong with it that don't work for even the many skirt and dress options. They could, but aren't there. But that's off topic and there's no change of them being addressed now properly except for in the PTS patch thread.

    PSIONIC DRAGON!!! Great work on this set, both creator and devs.

    All the blue parts are the new set. For the insect wings, you can go top, bottom, or both.

    also it would be great if added to the 90's set as well so everything matches with the scifi and holoforce set :)

    Liking the Psionic Dragon Set - first look nothing seems out of place.

    Suggestion: Additional Leg Set
    What: In my original design for Holoforce, there was an option to have two OR four additional legs to allow player to create an insect or arachnid. Now we have the arachnid legs, would it be possible to create the insect version by removing the lower two legs from the arachnid set, leaving only the upper set to curve over the shoulder. This would allow players the option of bug or spider.

    Have to agree, they (Meatiator?) have done a great job interpreting Necra's concept. Also the addition of the wings and legs from my Holoforce suggestion really do make a great extra.

    Bug: Holoforce Costume Set
    Where it happens PTS & LIVE
    What happens: A few things are going on here, Holoform pattern 3 & 4 gives you this very funky mouth when in beast stance and when you use the much darker color shades you can see the outline of the lips, they appear to be glossy and UN-full mask like

    Please please please please please please! Make this work with Beast Legs! My most widely used character could really benefit from this Psionic Dragon set but she has BEAST LEGS and therefore a LOT of what is being put out (as far as tights) I have to pass on because the leg options for Beast change the legs back to NORMAL, completely negating the want to use Beast Legs.

    So please. Stop ignoring this and give costume equality to all!

    Additionally: can we get Foot Accessories that don't have anything for the tops of the feet for those that use non-human feet? What we have clips and doesn't look pretty at all because of it.

    Ninja mask? Cowabunga Dudes :)

    I really like the Psionic Dragon set, with the exception of the aforementioned issue of the spider legs not working. They should be mounted in the same way the jetpacks are now.

    The new Anubis face is quite shiny, though if I were to nitpick, I would say I'd prefer having the markings and color editable would be better. As it stands now, they just match skin tone, which makes them invisible on a traditional blackskinned Anubis design.

    I have to say it....this new costume set is PSEXY

    Very much loving it. Props to The Meatiator (sounds like a wrestling chef name :P) for translating yet again one of the winning ideas from the player base into a good looking costume set!

    It would be very nice though if this set worked with all types of characters! (*looks at Beast Legs*)

    I can see this costume set having fantastic synergies with Holoforce and PSI pieces....who knows...this Psionic Dragon set could be used to refashion PSI a lil bit. :wink: (In a similar manner to how Cybermind Pieces can be seen on Teleioclones!)

    I will give kudos to the wings of this set. I was getting burned out on all the generic tech armor sets we've been getting over the past few months, but these wings are something interesting and unique.

    psionicdragonglitch_zps17147bab.jpg


    Suggestion: Psionic Wings (Dragon, Insect)
    What: Can you make the default size of the wings be at the mid point of the wings size slider, to allow them to be increased in size for larger characters. At the moment they seem a little small, and when you shrink the wings they all but disappear.

    I agree on the wings. The size could be adjusted or something. I was also thinking that maybe they dont have to flap when hovering. This could be the size thing. Anyways, still very happy with the way it looks.:biggrin:

    perhaps if they added a static version of the Psionic Dragon wings if that was how you had originally intended them? So as well as the flapping version you could choose to have static blades.

    I was also wondering about the weapon. Just curious. It would have been a great addition.

    And my original thoughts on the wings were to be static. Its a nice graphic when flying. The way the wings pull back. But I am not to keen on the flapping. Like Liath suggested tho, maybe make it so you can have both.

    When I saw the first concept, I thought it'd most likely be a new TK Blades unlock. Which would be cool, too. We need new TK weapons, I'd say.

    Though, as a Martial Arts Single/Double Blades Unlock lover, new additions to those weapons are always welcome, too! :D

    On an unrelated note, the new Ninja Masks which look VERY SIMILAR to the masks worn by a specific quartet of Terrapin heroes, who are also having a new movie released in August. COINCIDENCE?! I think not!
    It makes sense, if you don't think about it.

    Also, on a 'not pure commenting' note, I noticed that the Alien Hybrid Skin can't be matched with your skin color. That really should be changed to have an option to use Skin Coloring for the primary color. I mean, it IS skin. And should work like skin... no? Am I wrong? Well, sue me, then!

    I am loving the Psionic Dragon armor set, especially the arachnid legs, and whilst I do love the way they're positioned, wouldn't it be wise to add a second version that sprouds from between the shoulder blades? Since whilst it looks good as it is, I've already heard people say they wish it could sproud from the upper back so as to fit their armors better, and I agree with them, but I also like the way you already have them set up and think that it wouldn't be too much to ask for a second version that's a bit higher up.

    Absolutely love this set so far, now just need a Bio-Armor and I'd be complete :tongue:

    In all seriousness, love the design. However I'd rather see two more things.

    A: The Spider Legs are either positioned on the upper back, or a separate version could be made of the new location. It would also be wise to place it a tad closer to the back, so it fits the armor.

    B: Would it be an issue if these scaled to the Wing sliders? As some of these already act like "wings"


    Other then that, no issues. Awesome job guys! :cool:

    This is the first gold vendor piece that I'm truly excited about. I've wanted this mask for ages. I just wish that there were versions of both styles that covered the entire top of the head instead of just the eyes, like for Zorro or the Dread Pirate Roberts.

    No real reason they shouldn't be able to sell new textures or pattern for already existent weapons, no -which brings me to another thing. To totally need "Material" options for weapons!!

    Okay *deep beath* after originally being psyched about the new Ninja Mask I have to say that it could do with being looked at again.

    I get the reference behind it (a certain group of adolescent shellbacks) and I understand that those guys don't have any hair, but any player who thinks that this mask is gonna work on a toon of theirs that has short hair is gonna be dissapointed. Simply because this mask goes under the hair :-(

    actually that's correct, barring a crewcut(or really tight curly hair), the hair works out from under it and falls across the band.
