    This week's Tribble Patch includes another attempt to fix/resolve all outstanding Omega Accolade issues that originated from the Season 7 switch-over.

    SWEET BE'VES. Where's Jexamx?

    I dont think its an accolade problem. Its been an unavailable option to female characters since S7, you can find threads going back to 2012 about it.

    There are three named types of KHG costumes, which are (plain) "Honor Guard" and "Hos" and "Quv"

    Male "upper" (chest/tunic) only has plain and Hos types, and does not have a Quv type:

    Female "upper" only has plain Honor Guard, and does not have Hos or Quv types. In fact, the drop-down is disabled! Maybe the types are there and the drop-down is broken, or the data array for the drop-down is in error? Seems the most likely...

    Separately, I am curious if there is supposed to be a Hos chest piece as well... there should be yeah?

    From today's Tribble Patch Notes...
    We will be bringing down the Tribble server for maintenance to apply a new update: ST.40.20140330a.3

    (...snip...)
    Captains that have Pre-Season 7 Omega Task Force Accolades sitting in an unfinished state should now find those Accolades completed.
    * All success conditions must have been met.
    * This should reward captains with any Titles they were missing associated with those Accolades.
    * This will enable the Reputation Costume Unlock Projects to become available if applicable.
    (...snip...)

    Please go test out your 'stuck' characters once the server is back online, and report your progress on the Tribble Forums!

    Okay, my accolades for my female Klingon are fixed (registers the equipment that I have) but I still don't have access to my Be'Ves chest. I did all of the unlock projects on her before I copied her to tribble. Since my OMEGA reputation is back at zero, I can't test any costume unlock projects.

    Edit Update: After recycle/discard the pieces of my KHG MkXII set and then retrieving them from the replicator, I was able to unlock the Be'Ves option in the tailor!

    Double post

    Still not working.

    For my fed:

    MACO elite commander missing

    - get MACO commando (collect 3 pieces)
    - get MACO team commander (complete all optionals)

    I have both, same result as before. Missing accolade and missing costumes in tailor.

    Omega force shadow operative missing

    Everything else is checked.


    /edit.

    and double checked with my klingon with same issue:

    Honor guard elite commander missing

    - get honor guard elite (collect 3 pieces)
    - get honor guard commander (get optionals)

    Got both, accolade still missing.

    Not sure of that requires buying itl again or that "recycle-retrieve" will work.

    Edit:

    "recycle-retrieve" worked.

    Well this is good news, more or less.

    Your recycling method worked a charm, not sure if that is how we're suppose to get it working again, but it works.

    Managed to get the Be'ves drop down in the tailor menu after recycling a KHG Mk XII ground set and retrieving it from the replicator in my inventory.

    Thanks!

    I tried deleting and retrieving both maco and omega MK XII full outfits.

    Didn't fix accolades.

    Woo-hoo! The recycle-and-then-retrieve method worked! I got my Be'Ves option in the Tailor. Yay! Will edit my original post.

    Tested on Archer@LinkArcher, still didn't work.

    Completed:
    MACO Commando
    MACO Team Commander
    Omega Force Operative

    Incomplete:
    MACO Elite Commander
    Omega Force Shadow Operative

    All of the above accolades are the same as they were on Holodeck.

    One thing to note is that a MACO Style 4 costume unlock appeared, though it wouldn't allow me to claim the rewards, saying I can only have one of a unique item. I suppose this is the Adapted MACO costume that I already unlocked a while back.

    And the problem with me is that I have the MK XII gear, I ran the project, but I cannot collect the reward, the game doesn't let me "collect reward". And this is for the costume style 2.. before you tell it, yes I have Elite Commander accolades and have all costume unlocks for my MACO already..

    I have the exact same problem although mine tells me I'm onyl allowed one of a unique item.
    Oh, it's not broken? We can soon fix that!

    Nope no go on the fix for me either.

    Raphael@shadowwraith77

    All but the same 2 accolades are completed, yet the 2 that will not unlock have the associated accolades completed to unlock them, retrieving the gear whether by recycle and retrieve, or simply outright buying new ones doesn't have any effect either.

    The accolades themselves seem busted!!!

    Thanks for the reports so far! It definitely looks like a few Accolades were missed in the first round of this fix-up process. We'll do what we can to get them straightened out in the next patch.

    The Accolades, and the availability of certain costume options (like the Be'ves chest) are NOT DIRECTLY RELATED. I've stated this multiple times in this thread - please don't conflate the two issues. The current build on Tribble addresses only the Accolades.

    What exactly is the "recycling/discard/retrieve" method? Would someone who got this to work for the Be'ves chest piece please elaborate and provide step-by-step, uh, steps?

    Also, did you notice the appearance of the Hos Helmet, Arm, and Leg Accessories?

    I have the Hos and Quv already. Helmet is in the Head section as a Head type, I think. Here's what I meant by the recycle/discard/retrieve method:
    1. Unequip your KHG MkXII pieces (shield, armor, gun)
    2. Open inventory, right click on your MkXII pieces and click 'Discard' on each of them
    3. With your inventory still open, click on the 'Replicator' button on the bottom of the window
    4. Click on the 'Retrieve' tab in the new window.
    5. 'Buy' back your KHG MkXII items
    6. As your items are returned to your inventory (yes this costs a little bit of EC but you earn some when you discarded earlier), your accolades should update and you should get a message that you've been 'Promoted to Klingon Honor Guard' etc etc
    7. Go to your tailor, make sure you have the "Honor Guard" selected in your Uniform/Off-Duty drop window
    8. With 'Honor Guard' selected, you should be able to select the 'Honor Guard - Be'Ves' option from one of the top drop windows.
    9. Enjoy!

    Let me know if that helps!

    I'm curious as well. If this is fixing outstanding tailor issues, we need to investigate a better workaround, or less risky solution.

    For example, if you change maps (like joining a queue, e.g.) or get disconnected before retrieving the items from the Recycle tab in your replicator, they will be gone forever.

    For what it's worth, I re-tried my method on Holodeck with the same characters. No dice. The method only worked on the characters I copied to Tribble.

    I think it's whatever script that was put in for fixing the old accolades that's doing it with this method... Be'ves is unlocking on my KDF females on Tribble, but not on Holodeck.

    It doesn't seem to work with the other Honor Guard piece I'm missing, though. (Reman females don't get the Arm Attach option with KHG costume #2)

    This did not work for me. However I'd like to know is the Be'Ves option part of the Costume style 3? as that's the only one I have not unlocked at the moment.

    I have the Veteran, Initiate and Elite titles too.

    Just noticed that my Adapted Honor Guard MKXII set does not have the "equip" option if they are in my inventory, but my other standard MKXI and MKXII does, so I have to drag and drop onto the slots.

    Hi, I just got of tribble. I tried these changes to the omega rep costume unlocks. They seem a bit buggy and the accolade unlock is still not working. Costume unlocks now block my project slots because I cannot complete them now.

    http://i1313.photobucket.com/albums/t554/RybakSix/failed_zps72065f5d.jpg

    Also the omega rep seems to suffer from the lack of any space weapons.
    Could you guys put some anti borg weapons into that rep. Like the old [Borg] stuff we had at Roxies little shop on DS9 ??? That would put the rep in line with the others.

    Another observation - No torpedoes ??? Not a single torpedo in any of the stores. Why ???

    I did try the discard option. No go.

    More than that. I've noticed that that I could not put two sets of Omega XII into the inventory by drag and dropping it there.

    At one point the "recycle" option ate my Adapted Maco. It simply disappeared.

    The only suggestion I can make is if there is a way to remove those items from inventory and them give them back I take it will likely work so something like that Tholian EVA Mk XII project that takes them away and give them back would likely work , I know the Recycle tab is problematic for the reasons you stated but works in the purpose of addng them back to the player inventory that is the step to make then register.

    I can confirm that this works and offer a fairly simple fix. Sorry I never got around to posting this before.

    I resolved my own accolade progress issue by selling and repurchasing. I assume that when buying back, it effectively mints a new copy of the item.

    The less risky fix would be to add rep projects that offer a piece of STF gear as a reward and which take that exact same piece of STF gear as the sole project input.

    If you wanted to do it in an especially nice way that was also thematic and a bit less clunky than exchanging an item for a copy of the same item...

    Add a one time only project.

    "Allow Ferengi engineers to analyze Battle-tested MACO/Omega Force Gear."

    You hand in the item as a project input.

    You receive a box which contains the item you handed in, 10 Lobi, and one of the random Omega rep boxes.

    That kind of thing.

    It rewards the item that the person just handed in but feels less clunky than simply exchanging the item for itself.

    What's weird about it is reclaiming the items gives the accolades
    [7:18] [System] [LegacyFloaterMsg] You have collected three pieces of Mark XII Honor Guard Ground Gear!
    [7:18] [System] [ItemReceived] You received a new title choice: Honor Guard Elite
    [7:18] [Mission] Accolade complete: Honor Guard Elite
    [7:18] [System] [LegacyFloaterMsg] You have been promoted.
    [7:18] [System] [ItemReceived] You received a new title choice: Honor Guard Elite Commander
    [7:18] [Mission] Accolade complete: Honor Guard Elite Commander

    But that character already has those accolades on Holodeck

    Remove the accolades from the chars and put them in the auto-add list?
