Hello everyone. I remember reading posts on random threads regarding the look of Adversity Daggers, and this thread is about just that.

On my laptop, the daggers look black, but on my main gaming rig it shows up as white. My factionmate has also stated that they're green on her screen, and tonight my friend said the looked textured on his screen, so I wonder.. does anyone have an idea on how it keeps changing or isn't looking correctly?

My friend that sees it textured also states that it turns white from time to time as well when I'm fighting a boss. The white textured version looks a lot different from what I see on my screen too, according to him. I'm a bit confused because I haven't heard of texture/color problems for any other Tier 3 Rank 9 classes' weapons.

Here's how they look on my screen/my laptop: White/black

And on my friend's laptop: Textured


I would like to know because I really want mine to look like what my friend sees on his laptop D: (aesthetic freak)

    Thats because other Tier 3 R9 wepons looks JUST LIKE morai gears.

    It's likely a missing or null texture that is handled inconsistently between different video cards. I see the "textured" version although I wouldn't call it as such since all you see is the shiny effects shader and not the base texture.

    That's a shame. I wonder if it'll be fixed at some point or another.

    I think your friends who getting issues. For me and on all computers I saw it, it was white with greeny glows.

    They could've made tier 3 weapons prettier

    Textured one is the correct one, on my laptop, my mums laptop, and my sisters laptop (different types of laptops) all show the textured one. so I would assume it is textured one, due to the fact all our laptops are high-end

    The textured one is the Right or..... intended look. The others are just results of bad rendering.

    White, black, or embossed with rainbows, those things are still lethal. Congrats on the dags Skai.

    The first pic, on the left (the white one with green glow) is missing the base texture. All that is showing is a model and an effect.

    The first pic, on the right (white/black) is apparently missing part of the texture, it's rendering the model and a small part of the actual texture.

    The second pic is most likely how it's supposed to look. Looks like the effect is missing, though.

    My suggestion is to verify client. If you ever see anything that is just flat white, then you should realize that for 100%, you are seeing the underlieing model and not the texture.

    I guess maybe this is obvious, but between you and your friends, do you all have effects/quality settings all the way up? I know sometimes things tend to disappear if it goes down too low, especially if you happen to be in arch with best quality on.

    I run on full graphics and see the textured version... Never noticed color changing mainly because I am not r9 let alone the recast... Just notice it on the sins around me that have them.

    Ah, that explains it. A couple weeks ago someone asked in the sin forums "what are these daggers" and posted a picture of the textured Adversity daggers but I remembered them looking differently so I checked the Ecatomb dagger page and they were different. Was a bit confused why 5+ people agreed it was Adversity but I kept seeing different pics showing different daggers, but I accept Skai as an authority on endgame daggers and didn't speak up.

    Now I see the ecatomb page shows the white daggers, not the black or textured, but they're the same dagger.

    Just checked and can confirm it's a missing texture.

    Specifically:
    models\weapons\人物\匕首\匕首1\25品匕首\textures\r_25匕首.dds
    is missing

    I think this is pretty annoying...the whole 'let's copy the textures we had before, and just throw on some new stats' when they have both paying and farming people busting their behinds off to get them. Many of us want the aesthetic part to follow the 'rank' part of the gear when it comes to originality...b:surrender
    Therefor I made a suggestion in the suggestion thread regarding s3r9 textures/upcoming endgame gear textures..simply to QQ that I hate how they keep re-using and cheapshotting us on original gear designs.

    Thanks a lot Ast! I'll keep that in mind and hope for its arrival at some point. I guess some people have it while others don't.

    And Saku, I'm not sure if those are the same version textured but white. My friend who sees the textured version says the white looks like the black, with a different colored orb and the neon streaks.

    No one has the texture. That mess of swirly effects you see here: http://i.imgur.com/VIQanh.jpg
    is supposed to go over an actual texture.
    Right now the effects are over a missing texture which some video cards render as white and others black.

    I think your image showing the black adversity is just with the in-game effects turned down. Black and white are the only two cases and the green **** is from having effects on.

    Thanks everyone, and that makes sense Ast. I wonder if it was a mistake on their part, or if they just got too lazy to create it.

    And I like how they look Ashen. xD

    Good evening, P-dubbers!

    We're currently investigating this issue with the devs. Worry not, as I shall keep you informed about our findings. Until then, I would suggest verifying your client to see if that helps fix things.

    Congrats on the daggers!

    And for the record, sins in dresses are awesome.

    If you're putting in a request to fix this can you also ask them to update the look of the other r9 third cast weapons?

    Most of the R9 3rd cast weapons are just boring copies of low-grade Morai weapons: http://imgur.com/a/xFMAz
    Meanwhile there are perfectly good weapon designs in the game files that are unused like group 26 (26品) http://imgur.com/a/xUUHN
    Also the PWCN client just added another unused group 27 (27品): http://imgur.com/a/Uqq2a

    I know our third cast weapons are not available in China so they can only hear our feedback from you! Here's the suggestion thread on the issue: http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1529491
