Why can't I see my cape! (Too dark in customize screen)

in Bug Reports (PC)
I've got my graphic settings up all the way, and one problem I have is changing the appearance of the neck item. It seems the light on the character stays on the face, so if I turn them around to see their back, it's way to dark to notice the colors or even shape of the cape. I can't tell what the color are going to be when I change them with a dye, or what they new one will look like if I want to transmute.

This also applies to shields as a Paladin. They sit on the back and are hard to see because of the darkness.

I would love to be able to see what I'm doing. :)

Example Too dark!

    @winters323 , I"m moving this to bug reports, as it's a bug.

    I know this has been requested a gazillion times - we all want our toons to look pretty, please let us achieve this!

    I do believe that the new "Item Preview" system or whatever they call it that's coming with Underdark will fix this, though I haven't tested it myself yet.

    I've tested what they have so far, and it still keeps the back of my character dark. But we still have a little while until Underdark, so I'm keeping hope.

    Open options and change lighting to high quality.

    I had this same issue

    Take care

    I hate paying taxes! Why must I pay thousands of dollars in taxes when everything I buy is taxed anyways!

    I said this in the main post, but I have everything up all the way. Here's a screenshot of the graphics options and the bug still happening

    So far the reports from preview has been that you still cant see the back of the toon. I suppose it does fit the Underdark theme though... :tongue:

    The prob is the light source/spot, it's not static and moves with char when you rotate it. In char select screen tho, it's static and works well.
