Oh how I wish I had the color options that the NPC's seem to have, yet we don't. While your at it, fix the colorization on the ship customization screen 1/2 don't work and the other half are (republican ) hit and miss
"buying a subscription to STO is a lot like feeding pigeons, you give them food, they give you.......well you know":rolleyes:
Color palette implementation is pretty spotty, and very inconsistant. It's worse if your KDF or KDF aligned Romulan.
The romualn color palette is used with Romulan costmes, and the KDF-Romulan uniforms, but off duty wear is messed up as to color palette.
Example. I got the risaian costume packs for one of my KDF aligned romulan characters.
Restrictions: Off duty only, and cannot be mixed with Romulan "civilian" options. Can only use the BASE KDF color palette. (dull ok, this is supposed to be COLORFULL beach wear!)
When using the Risaian flower accents with this outfit the flower ornements for Ankles, thighs, and upper arms get to use the big huge bright color pallette, while the acceories flowers use arounf the neck, head, wrists, and belt use the default KDF (again DULL DULL DULL!) color palette.
Orions are limited to the default KDF color palette (why I have no idea...it make absolutly NO sense to me..its a square peg jammed into a round hole. For orions females aspecially it just makes no sense... no purples, pinks, megentas, light greens, yellows etc. etc etc. )
It doesn't quite officially qualify as a BUG. More of an oversight, lack of awaeness, which could really seriously use some looking at and rationalization. For that matter, even the KDF color palette should not be as limited as it is.
Hopefully Cryptics art team can address it some time in the near future. (sooner would be better then later) but even I can see that each and every single last piece of uniform/costume for the KDF faction would need to be gone over on a PIECE, by PIECE basis. Including any off duty options which right now are not consistant.. I expect its going to be a couple weeks of work doing, checking, and rechecking to make certain that something doesn't slip by.
Addendum: Part of the problem is "legacy" code from much earlier in the games history. Off duty and formal outfit options have only JUST NOW been made availible to the KDF faction players and thier Aliied Romulan players. It has to be considered a Work In Progress as the patch that made it all availible was made availible on tribble something like 4 days beofre it was made availible with the launch of the summer event patch.
