Also, the collar for the females clips through the shoulderguards pretty badly. It can be reduced with some funky shape-adjustment (no arm or shoulder bulk, wiiiiiiiiide shoulders, broad neck), but never quite goes away unless you use a posture like the shoulder-forward grumpy one.
Please fix? I can post up pics if it helps, but if you test it out on a female avatar, it should be apparent right away.
Adding pics to highlight the clipping problems on the collar plate. There are other issues throughout the suit, but they're correctable wtih body shape changes. The collar however (at least on my model) clips through the shoulders regardless of shape, and in most of the poses.
I've used some specific poses to highlight where the clipping areas are, but it does affect most all of them to some degree. So far, the only ones I've found that hide the collar plate under the shoulder guards are Creature and Gruff.
I think that at least part of the problem is that the Veteran XI version is actually stripped down from the original model, so the collar wasn't designed to hide under the plates without the furs over them. Maybe just reverting the Veteran shoulders to the same as Elite would solve the issue?
Glad this problems wasn't just me, after grinding away on 120 plus STFs both elite and normal...finally unlocked this armor to my disappointment to find that this armor looked so... lacking and unfinished.
I have unlocked both the Mk XI MACO and Omega sets on the fed side and the details look the greatest on the omega set..(alot of cool and awesome details)
I was hoping that the KDF MK XI armor set was gonna at least look awesome and fearsome...bah...this armor set looks like it is still in development....and at Mk XI grinds...how disappointing...I hope this gets fixed and not intended this way on purpose :eek:
I hope this is a bug, I thought that the unlocks went like this:
MK X: no costume unlock
MKXI: basic costume unlock
MKXII: Elite costume unlock with helmet & all perks, including femail cleavage armor.
Is this wrong?
Yes. Sort of. The MACO set works that way, although the Honor Guard set has different parts unlock based on your gender, and both versions are pretty lackluster at Mk XI. Boots gloves and shoulderpads, and a collar-thing that clips through the shoulders (because it was designed for the bigger Mk XII versions).
The Mk XII includes the bigger shoulders, upper arms, gloves for male characters, back and chest gear (male/female version), helmet and cloak. I think. We haven't seen anyone unlock it yet, but that's what the NPCs have.
The Omega set is the best, by far. It gets the Honor-Guard look (bodysuit, small details) at Mk X, then the XI set includes everything but the helmet/shoulders. Looooots of detail at Mk XI.
Also, I haven't seen this mentioned elsewhere yet, but the Honor Guard boots are not rigged properly to the body mesh. So the feet are stuck rigidly to the calves and animate with them. It makes running look kinda funny. Do the other two sets do that?
I wonder if it was intended this way? If Mk XII sets have the shield visuals, then that would be in line with the majority of ground set visuals only being unlockable at XII (for the KHG set, anyway).
The Mark XII set for males is bugged too. The fur is too close to the neck, causing it to clip through the helmet/head at the slightest movement.
It should be covering the hinges of the cape, like it does on the female version.
Seriously, Cryptic. Why do you hate us male Klinks so much?
I was so excited to unlock the mk XI costume set on my klingon, man was I dissapointed when I did. Looks like this has been an on going issue for some time. Hope it gets addressed, but I won't be holding my breathe seeing how old this thread is.

Left Shoulder
Right Shoulder

Agreed ... Equal rights for male warriors! ... Arm plates please!
I'm feeling severely discriminated here.

Not fixed yet that I know of and not a single word from the devs eiher.
Anyone else hear anything?
The set still makes my Klink look fat.
I still don't have the bracers.
Shoulders are still not evensized.
And on the space set, the visual effects of the MK XI shields still don't work.
I wore it for a time but finally took it off and went back to my fleet uniform.
Now working up another character and that one is going Omega just because it looks SO much better at this point.

Me too. I'm regrinding the same character to unlock the Omega suit at this point. The Veteran KHG set just looks unfinished (even on females).
It should be covering the hinges of the cape, like it does on the female version.
