KDF Issues that still need addressing

First of all, how long has the Kar'fhi battlecarrier been invisible? Because it's been invisible for a long time. Second, I started a new KDF toon because I don't know why, but in the "House must fall" mission where you're investigating a romulan on Qo'nos all over the map there are ceremonial torches floating in the air. Near Lady Sirella, along the road, all over the map.

    The "best" of them all is the borked transwarp animation of a KDF character's ship when using the transwarp menu left of the minimap. Has been broken for as long as I play this game, despite having reported it several times. But it apparently beats the devs to fix such a trivial thing. Great advertisement for when a new player to the game rolls a KDF toon, especially on their shiny new game console client.

    I can't comment on the Kar'fhi battle carrier issue, but as for the the issue with the floating torches this was reported via another bug hunter, and regarding the Transwarp destination issue, I submitted this just the other week and it has subsequently been submitted by the dev's to be fixed, but considering how close we are to AoY going live, I wouldn't expect a fix until then.​​
    Oh, it's not broken? We can soon fix that!

    I can confirm the issue with the Kar'fi battle carrier. Pretty much every time I've seen one on a space map, it's virtually invisible, other than its windows, glowy parts and any gear effects. Been that way a long, long time.

    I take the issues with the torches are the same as the image linked below?

    I did a report on the Kar'fi myself awhile back. It will get here eventually folks. Right now they're probably in scramble mode to make sure things go right for the AoY expac and console release.

    Sorry, are you talking about the bug that causes multiple transwarp destinations to be selected when the user selects one?

    Transwarp Patch Issue
    Transwarp Issues
    Transwarp Waypoints Bugged

    Or are you talking about the transwarp animation bug on KDF characters?

    Holodeck ticket 3,472,538: On KDF characters, ship warps out before transwarp animation plays

    Those are two different bugs, and I'm pretty sure cklib is talking about the latter.

    Thanks for confirming. Sorry, I was a confused for a second, because you said "Transwarp destination issue" and the animation bug seems unrelated to the destination.

    The animation was submitted a few months back, and the destination issue was submitted within the last couple of weeks, it corresponded with another fix to the transwarp menu. Hopefully it'll fixed and pushed to holodeck sooner rather than later.

    But I'd like to say thanks for all the posts that have been submitted here, if you have any other issue you'd like looking at please feel free to get in touch and I'll try and help when I can.​​

    Good luck with that. We are still waiting on missing items issue from over a year ago, buy you all just keep grabbing those shiny new things they keep dangling in front of you so you will forget about bugs.

    Thanks for the youtube video of the borked transwarp animation in your linked post from over a year ago, @frtoaster.

    The only thing to be added, I guess, is to say that the animation is only borked if you transwarp from the minimap menu. If you, say, respond to a sector space Red Alert, the transwarp animation seems fine.

    The transwarp issue isn't just KDF related, all factions have the issue. I've seen no rhyme or reason, sometimes it works alright, others it happens on a regular basis. I sometimes have to wonder if the problem isn't related to the ship your using, maybe some ships just plain don't work right transwarp-wise.

    I have only seen this borked transwarp animation consistently on KDF characters whenever you use the transwarp menu on the side of the minimap, no matter the ship. No such problems on Fed or Romulan toons.

    As far as KDF-related issues are concerned, a few come to mind:
    1. Gorn are still missing their mass and physique sliders.
    2. The KDF ship's computer voice is still missing. Here are some old bug reports from 2014:

      Klingon computer vox gone
      Klingon Player only hearing Federation Computer Voice
      What happened to the Klingon Computer Voice?

      You can still hear the old computer voice in old YouTube videos:

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=naFMu0BMbB8
    3. Some players still have costumes that they can't edit or wear. I don't have this particular bug, but some people have told me that some of their characters are still affected. From what I understand, this bug isn't KDF-specific (Feds and Romulans can get it too), but it does affect KDF characters disproportionately.

    Here's an invisible KarFi.

    The KarFi is also sorta transparent in the preview window at the ship vendor.
