I know these same clothing styles have been around a while in other PW versions, but were just released to PWI. That's one of the things that makes me a bit upset about the bad rendering ingame. For instance, the Leather Top doesn't render properly in the back for any avatars with hair below the chin. With long hair, the collar goes over the hair, then the hair sticks out down the back under the collar. It really is not attractive and makes me feel I wasted money on my purchase.b:cry

You guys in the graphics department couldn't fix this in past years, or what? b:angry

On a positive note, I applaud the fact that you showed the clothing in several colors on the news post! b:victory It's sometimes hard to tell what part of a garment is the dyeable part, and this helps tremendously! The 3 different colors being shown also help give me (an ardent dye-er) a heads up on how the texture or "fabric" will react to the dye. Yellow is generally the best color for this, imo.

Now if we could just get a decent back view of all garments? Please?b:bye

    It's not just the clothes, it's part of their render engine... the higher level arcane gear that has collars on it does the same. If you notice hair is generally a problem to render in a lot of games not just this one... it's not something that is easy to solve if you want your game to run fast and accommodate a large amount of players. If you look at some xbox and playstation games they have the same problems.

    ^ This.

    There are a lot of rendering issues with fashion and hair in this game. Kind of have to get over it, sadly.

    moved to suggestions, more of a technical issue but it fits in either section.
