Romulan Vet Ship Material Broken

The Romulan Veteran hull material appears to be broken on the Dhael, Dhelan, all 3 Scimitar variants and the Rom Vet ship.

Changing the patterns on the Vet material and/or color of the Vet material on these ships has no effect and won't give the nice chrome style metal appearance it does on the other Romulan ships. Please look into this as I'm sure these ships would look awesome with the Vet material working correctly.

    Also works for me, though I noted that it did not work on any Romulan C-store ships on tribble before it was patched to live.

    The skin itself is working but when you look at these;

    Compared to the ships I listed;

    You can clearly see there is something missing/off about the Vet material. They are all using the same options and colors but on the Dhael/Dhelan, Scimitars and Vet ship your missing the chrome style metal, even the standard patterns using the darkest colors are barely visible on them.

    I can confirm Kirahitomi.
    The Veteran Hull are not working as it seem to be intended to.

    Nice to know I'm not the only one who tests before posting.

    I'm not even seeing the Romulan Veteran material as an option. I've got the Veteran material on my Federation and KDF characters' ships, but it's not giving me the option at all on my Romulan characters. :confused:

    i had the same problem, but i figured out a work around! as soon as you enter the ship tailor, hit the randomize button, after that the colors will work again and you can just fix your ship the way you want it in the advanced section! :D

    I will have to try that randomize work around, my skin comes and goes as i travel from system to sector space.

    I have an idea for what Season 11 should be; Season 11: The Big Bug Fix.
    I have not been able to read my bug tickets in over a year, not even the tickets about not being able to see my tickets.
    I find the drama of your signature proof of your immaturity, this means you, DR whiners.

    Randomize workaround confirmed. I was able to do it on my Fleet Dhael with the vet skin. After hitting randomize a few times I was able to use the paint patterns and have them show up properly with no problems. I can grab pics later if anyone wants them.

    its the costume engine thats broken, not the costume.


    let me explain:

    whenever you sart e customization, on many materials nothing will change when you change sth.
    now try to first click on one of the standardized variants on the left. this will reset the engine, and whoops, now customization works as intended.
    second way is: start customization, cancel it, start it again, will work too.

    somehow the engine is broken in that part. its definetely not the costume-variant itself. though on the "special" materials or materials linked with shield-atered skins this problem occurs more often.
