Invisible characters, naked characters, the new ERR pets and billboards

Yep all of my characters are invisible when I log in. Two of them, my veno and barb are naked in the select screen (not talking about not wearing armor, talking about actually naked). And I'm unsure if its just the new/upgraded pets or if its pets and billboards in general are now all ERR. I've tried reclogging many times and have "verified" that it was updated correctly but still having this issue. Oh and werewolf spears are not showing up for me either.

    I'd like to see a screenshot of this character screen glitch.

    Hmmm...
    Quite odd

    Though I have seen something like this before a long time ago

    Does the invisibility look something like this?

    No im completely invisible. Imagine a sin using his skill making you unable to see him, that's how it is for me its just that I cant see myself! As for screen shots what do you want >< youll see nothing if I screen it.

    I said screen shots of Part A. Character screen. you said your toons are armorless. Also check your graphics settings when you go in the game. maybe somehow they changed after the update.

    Usually this is a symptom of...

    A. Corrupted files

    B. Security software interfering with the functionality of the client

    C. A really bad connection between you and the server causing many dropped packets.

    D. Your CPU is overloaded and/or you're out of memory and the client is being dumped into the page file.

    With A, it can be caused by B, so fix your security software, then verify a few times.

    With C it's most often a problem with your local modem/router, or your signal is travelling overseas.

    Seeing it at the login screens is either corrupted files, or a video driver compatibility issue.

    I've already verified the files have been installed correctly, it found no issue. My video card has had no problem running this game in the past so that's not the issue.

    This update includes changes to the display features of the client. It very well could be an issue. make sure you have the most recent certified drivers for your device and use the "Clean install" option under advanced settings when installing the driver.

    If it continues, try to go back a driver version or two. I've encountered this many times, and it's almost always the video driver that's the problem.

    Also note, one verify rarely fixes anything, and two verify's only partially fix it. Run it three times back-to-back and then reboot for best results.

    Might try defragging. Even on my old Athlon X2 it only takes about 5-10 minutes.

    That is exceptionally odd.

    If I were you at this point, I would just blow away the directories manually and re-install/update the client from scratch.

    If you're seeing that in ARC, it's because ARC is borked.

    If you're seeing that in P&F, then don't worry about it, the client doesn't make any changes to your system to run anyway. Just delete the client folder after you back up your screenshots that you want to keep.

    Complete discrimination, the barb is completely naked, while veno is in underwear. I propose veno have no underwear either or barb gets underwear b:dirty.

    lets be honest here, its not like this stuff hasen't happened before I mean it kind of happenes every time theres a big patch. If they havent done an "emergency maintainence" by now then it'll happen soon, I'm not saying they'll actually fix everything but they'll dig up whatever code was used last time fashion make people naked/invisible and anything else they can throw a ducttape patch on
