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.

The Ninja Mask is not in the vendor to test.

luesatchmo402 · July 2014

Monthly sub ninja mask doesn't seem to be in debugger or costume vendor...

It is now!

luesatchmo402 · July 2014

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.

notyuu · July 2014

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.

crypticbuxom · July 2014

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.

aurasonic12 · July 2014

Bug Psionic dragon bracers texture
Where it happens tailor
What happens when you first select the psionic dragon bracer piece there are two different textures showing up

aurasonic12 · July 2014

suggestion for the new pattern for the jackal head how about using the 4th color box as the color for the tattoo for the "Ra" pattern instead of the skin color

yinjeigh · July 2014

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.

necratech009 · July 2014

Absolutely love what they have done with my ideas! Really looking forward to it coming out!

I was wondering when the winners will be getting the set. Hope its a little sooner than last time but ofcourse we will be happy with just getting it.:biggrin:

Again, sooo happy with the way it turned out!

jasinblaze · July 2014

great set
can you add the glow to the third color on the brushed metal again please?
also it would be great if added to the 90's set as well so everything matches with the scifi and holoforce set

eiledon · July 2014

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.

Previous Issues Outstanding Still from .22 and live

Oh man, Psionic Dragon is so beautiful. :O And it's got all the textures too!

Aw, man, it even has glow.

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.

ealford1985 · July 2014

also a few issues with the holoforce set...

Bug: Holoforce Costume Set
Where it happens PTS & LIVE
What happens The upper and lower tights don't match in shade

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

Suggestion:
+ Move Spider Legs closer to body
+ Have additional location of Spider Legs (upper back)

+ add a psionic skull cap option to allow creation of a full helmet look

cyrone · July 2014

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.

stellariodragon · July 2014

Aw, man didn't even see the psionic backs. :O

Ninja Mask~! (Go, Ninja, Go Ninja, Go~!)

...I actually don't have the feather mask (I don't think), so I can't say anything about those....

thelastsonofzod · July 2014

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.

theravenforce · July 2014

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.

(In a similar manner to how Cybermind Pieces can be seen on Teleioclones!)

kaiserin · July 2014

Bug: Male jackal head is using skin as a color channel, this should changed. Female is not.

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.

themightyzenith · July 2014

Gratz to you Necra!

Oh, and ty for adding the new eye mask...I've been needing this for quite a while!

bellatorrex · July 2014

God that set looks beautiful! And yes, Swashbuckler needs that mask to get that Zorro vibe and other similar heroes look that the Buckler of Swash has. *100% supports Zenith's want to get that mask*

themightydork · July 2014

Bug: Psionic Dragon Hip Wear
What: On Males the alternate color area of the hipwear pokes through the main color portion on the front right. No similar glitch on front left. (see screenshot). Note doesn't seem to affect female costume part

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 was thinking something looked wrong, but forgot to check wing scales. I would agree with this suggestion 100%.

necratech009 · July 2014

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 support this. Having a non flapping version of this one and maybe for the holoforce wings too.

chimerafreek · July 2014

Little Disheartened that the new set doesn't have weapons that can be Psi-holo.

I REALLY want invisible melee weapons so I can Sword Cyclone with my fists.

necratech009 · July 2014

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.

crypticbuxom · July 2014

Texture weapons would be awesome regardless.

But yes, a lot of new costume pieces have specific parts poking through them and its always happening on the right side of the body.

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!

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!

ninjapiff · July 2014

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!

eiledon · July 2014

nm.. read that as arcane skin.. move along.. nothing to see here.

chaelk · July 2014

BUG
PTS TAILOR
dragon wings use fourth colour for glow, every other part uses second.
Bug wings use second

this was red/orange/yellow/lt blue

I may make up my first mecha armour character with this set, it's lovely.
congratulations both to the designers and the person doing all the working making the concept real.

kriss94 · July 2014

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.

spiderdude4 · July 2014

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

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:

zamuelpwe · July 2014

As far as weapon suggestions, I'm wondering if it would be feasible to sell new textures. Like, if buying this back opened up telekinetic weapons and a few melee weapons from various sets to have these new textures.

tdits · July 2014

Oh, wow. This costume set is beautiful. And the ninja mask! :biggrin:

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.

morigosa · July 2014

Bug
None of the psionic dragon head accessories are available under Monstrous, Bestial, Insect, or Huge Alien Helmet categories.
In addition, on males, they are also unavailable under Huge Humanoid Helmets and Huge Rigid Helmets.

malvou · July 2014

Bug: The "Ra" Pattern is tied to skin color. There is currently an unused 4th color block for the Jackal Head. I would suggest using that to color in the detail instead of BODY COLOR.

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!!

circleofpsi · July 2014

Bug: Jackel Ra has no glow choice. Spider legs too far away from body and on female is on the butt.

Room hideouts are still blocked behind a wall and can't be accessed

There's already a costume piece like that in the form of the Cheshire Cat partial mask from "grab the money and run"

flyingfinn · July 2014

But it's missing the back knot.
And i do like the new mask.

Exactly....the cheshire mask is no substitute.

thelastsonofzod · July 2014

Would it be possible to make the back knot accessible without a mask?

That would help with this issue, provided of course thatbit lines up with the Cheshire mask.

themightyzenith · July 2014

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

. Simply because this mask goes under the hair :-(

Is there any way that you guys could make it like the large blindfold that goes over the hair?
Like this(but with the long dangly bit).....

I would appreciate it if you guys could look at this.

So, simply put....

BUG: Ninja Mask goes under the hair
WHEN: when using Ninja Mask and any hair

chaelk · July 2014

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