Artifacts don't match photo

Bug report: The Alien Artifacts in Foundry don't match the photos that are shown when you pick one. Some are correct, but several are different when you place them on the map than the photo that shows when you click on them.

I wanted a small item to represent an orb and none of these worked for me.

I would also love to get a Bajoran Orb in the item list.

Thanks bunches!

    Yes, I would really love an orb as well. There is an effect (I forget the name) that looks like an orb's glow, but there is no orb to use it on, except at ds9 and a few other maps. Please add the orb.

    I need specific objects, please. :)

    There are only about 10 of them. Just put them all on a map and you will see which ones don't match their photo. Seems like a simple request to me.

    Impertinence is not a worthwhile trait.

    What ZeroniusRex is implying is that you should perhaps give more direct examples as to what your problem is. The Devs try to recreate your circumstances exactly, so letting them know what map you are using and where you are placing the objects on the map will be of great use. If they simply lay down a random object and they find nothing wrong then it will need more information to recreate the problem. If you have not provided this information, they can't do much else. If they lay down an object and they encounter the problems you mentioned, they can try different topographical arrangements to see if it's a map issue or a object issue, or perhaps something is amiss with your particular client since there are no other visible complaints about objects.

    Either way, the more the information you supply, the better the detective remedial work. Its not just about finding the problem, it's about eliminating it.

    Here are the problem artifacts:

    Artifact - Alien M 01
    Artifact - Alien M 02
    Artifact - Alien M 03
    Artifact - Alien M 04

    Anywhere you put them, they don't match the photo. I would prefer if they matched the photo and the photo wasn't just changed to match the artifact.

    Thanks.

    Ah, perfect, thanks! I think that's some sort of collision bounding box. I've passed along a bug for it. :)
