  • Image Designer: Corrected some problems with the ID timer showing incorrect times. (No more cases of 6002 minutes left to assign changes!)

  • Image Designer: Corrected a problem that prevented assigning Lekku to male Twi'leks.

  • Image Designer: Improved the Mon Calamari body zoom level.

  • Image Designer: Made the designer window zoom in more by default and made the viewer stretch for even more zoom.

  • Image Designer: Corrected some stat migration UI text that was slightly cutoff.

  • Image Designer: IDs cannot migrate their own stats

  • Image Designer: ID time reduction should now work correctly when inside the ID tent.



Please post here with any problems with these items or any other ID problems that you encounter today.



Thanks!

Oh, but I didn't see:



  • Entertainer: Removed the 15 Second Stop/Play timer if they accidentally moved, wanted to switch instruments for RP reasons, Looked away from a standing instrument.

  • Entertainer: Fixed the Reason why we had to put the 15 Second Pause in, in the first place

Thanks

Dyseman, while your concern is appreciated, please note that this thread is being used by the devs to inform the TC players as to the changes that went in with this morning's downtime. It is not a thread for players such as you or I to wail and moan about changes that aren't being put in. If you would, please take your concerns to the appropriate parties, or in this case, the Entertainer Correspondent and the In Live thread. Thank you.




Regards,
Trayson Santiles

Please let me know if it is still a problem after this update. This may have fixed it as well.



Thanks!

Pleaseremove the timer from the ID profession. There makes no sense why its there.


I guess all those combat people were getting angry at how stong our profession was that we needed to be nerfed. :-)


Oh yeah, were the new Hairstyles and Tataoos we were promised?




I just hit a bunch of buttons and hope everything works out.

Woot! Im in the tent in Bestine and can confirm the timer reduction IS working!!!

Honestly, ID was way too easy to skill up before and needed to be changed. Even though Im still kicking myself in the arse for not doing it while it was easy I can say time to skill up in the tents IS almost acceptable/appropriate now.

The only thing Im still wishing for is to get these tents in player cities. Architect craftable... placeable by Master ID's like a cantina. I think that would be one more COOL addition and make a difference in how this patch is received overall. Yes, ID's got some nerfs but at least they wouldnt be forced to hike to npc cities on top of it.

I can't log on from here, but the timer was working last night too. What it *wasn't* doing is working if you IDed yourself. Has this been fixed?

it appears to be working fine R5

I've heard alot of IDs say that XPing ID in the new system is incredibly harder than the old system (I agree somewhat as I did ID IV a long time back)...... also to XP while self IDing in the new system, something must be altered to receive any XP..... this is no good because often one has to find someone to practice on, but that person strictly doesn't want any changes done and will probably not let you practice on them if you are forced to alter something...... would it be possible for self IDs to have some sort of "Practice" button so that they don't have to change anything to XP?


I'm pretty sure this is a known bug but........ my Zabrak got his hair color changed, but no change was visible to anyone besides me....... I then walked 300m away from the tent and went back... then everyone could see the new color


would be nice to have some built in hot keys for the holo-emotes (like we have a built in hotkey for "/sit")...... otherwise I will just make custom macros for each holo-emote so I don't have to type them out when I want to use one........ this will just clutter up my custom macros as I already have 30 or so :S (of course this is minor)
