Tailor Archive

I've made and sold quite a few bio enhanced clothing items with all sorts of tissues already. However, last nite I was making some padded work pants with a RFP embued with Tensile Tissue (hope I got the name right - can't remember exactly while at work here - it was one with plus 14 to stun defense and plus 4 to melee defense). I was not able to getany skill modifier to show in the final product (the pants) after trying twice with enhanced RFPs from the same crate. Anyone else have this problem with this tissue and these pants? Thanks in advance...

Hi!

I'm not actually a tailor, but I am a master BE who works nonstop with my better half, who is. So I could be wrong here but I do have one suggestion for you.

I'm not sure of the schematic for Padded Work Pants, but do they take more than one RFP?

One thing we found is that if you use a schematic that takes more than one of SC's or RFP's (not identical), and you intend to use one BE enhanced RFP in one slot and a regular RFP in the other slot, the non-enhanced RFP has GOT to have been made AFTER the BE tissues patch.

If you put both a BE enhanced RFP and a regular RFP from a crate that was made before the last big patch, then it will erase the bonus. However, if you were to make a new crate or just make yourself one or two new, plain RFP's, and use those along with the BE enhanced RFP, it will work fine.

Good luck!

Hi, I have been having no trouble using any cloth either pre- or post patch. The trick is to make sure that the enhanced cloth goes in last. Always.

Another trick to try on the pants is to extract the synth cloth from the box instead of clicking it in straight from the crate. That usually works for me. And adding the RFP last seems to help too.

Yep.... rule of thumb is:

1) Everything extracted from crates before beginning crafting.

2) ALWAYS put your enhancements in LAST.

I do not do these for the public but just my friends and family. It's just not something I enjoy and failing is so expensive. However, following the above, failing is the only problem I ever have. The bio's have always shown up for me.

Good Luck!!

Actually, I've found the putting the enhancement last or not doesn't change anything.

I had problems in the begining with stats not showing when I pulled the tissues strait out of their crates during crafting. Ever since I started pre splitting panels/cloths out of their crates beforehand I havn't had a single clothing item come out unmodded in the end.

I seem to have trouble only when making the first pair when I log in. After that they all come out with the bonus. I always add the enhanced cloth last... call me superstitious but it seems to work with the exception of the first pair I make.. lol

In my opinion the bioenhancements showing up in pants seems to be entirely random. I made camo pants in the morning and got all three to work. In the afternoon, the stats did not show up in either the padded workpants or the camo. I do not think I did anything different. Who knows why these these happen or not? I sure don't.

I've never had any problem with stats not showing up, but I always remove the components from the crates before crafting.
