Please list any individual schematics that have any abnormalities or "strangeness" to them. It doesnt have to be a true bug...just somethingthat makes you go hmmm?


We probably won't get to asking for fixes on these things for awhile now, but I will keep track off this thread until we do ^_^. So don't worry - I am concentrating on the "big stuff" first.


<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>


1) Cloaked Dress - Color 1 is the inside underdress which is cloth, yet color 1 is the small leather palette. I think color 2, the outside cloak is only the metal palette.Its not metal. It should be at worst the extended leather palette.This dress is nearly useless in those few, hard to match,ugly colors. Make color 1 the full palette and color 2 extended leather.


2) Plated Necklace - Color 1 is fine as the metal palette (though I don't see why it couldnt be ANY color :smileywink, but color 2 does almost nothing. You can BARELY see any difference no matter what you pick in color 2.


3) Emerald Pendant - Color 1 is metal for the chain. Perfect. Color 2 is only metal as well though, when the only thing it changes is the big gem in the front. Gems come in all the colors of the rainbow! Make color 2 the full pallet


4) Frock - Color 1 & 2 should relate to opposite sections of the garment. In novice artisan you can only change the color of the little sash in the middle.


5) Maiden's Dress - Color 1 & 2 shoudl relate to opposite sections of the garment. Before you have enough customization points, you should still get to change the MAIN color, not jsut the trim. Later on, you should get to do the second part too.


6) Wrapped Skirt - Colors 1 & 2 should relate to opposite sections. You should get to change the main color of the skirt, and later on be able to do the sash too.. Not the opposite =p


7) Golden symbol - Takes a lot of xp to get to.. eats lots of resources and its hideously ugly! Also, why can't we at least change the color on this thing? By making it one color only, you make everyone's identical.


8) Smock- should say in description "Male only" because it is not self-evident to everyone.


9) Golden Bracelet - Why cant we change the color?


10) Coucilman's Robe - The middle section is the metal palette? Is this a mistake or working as intended? Looks like cloth or even leather to me.


11) Belted skirt - The belt part comes only in metal colors. Is it really metal? Or should it be leather?


<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>


Well thats all I can think of for now.. But maybe we can keep a running thread and everyone adds all the little oddities... and I will submit thatat some pointas *one item*.. /grin


Remember I'm looking for specific items. Its my experience that receiveing info in this way, the devs are most likely to get things fixed ^_^

Ah, just remembered another, with the jewelry mention:

Loose Dress: In relation to necklaces, specifically in my case, the Striped Pendant, though perhaps with others too. I really like the "bare shoulders" look of the Loose Dress, and one would think it'd be a great outfit for showing off jewelry. But the necklace looks awful with it. The "chain" part doesn't go all the way around the neck, getting interrupted significantly before the shoulder line. (I.e., it looks like it's just sorta hanging there by some invisible force....)

Tipless Gloves aren't really tipless. You just get to color the gloves two colors, one on the fingers. Sometimes I rename these as i feel like it's false advertising to leave em described as tipless. Or i put quotes around the "Tipless".

Several wookie items, such as Heavy Shoulder pad, need to have Wookie in the name, the only people who have bought them off my vendor are human and then are peeved they can't wear. Yes I can put a sample up in my shop with wookie things like hoods with it so they can see but humans generally don't check out what each Wookie item up on my wall is named so that they don't buy it by chance .. . I end up having to rename these with Wookie in the title.

Light bustier the trim color is just one big white bugged palette.

Same on the Pleated Dress in the casual line as well. It's the trim color, although on both apparently the trim color box is the top, Color 1 box which probably should be switched, to make more sense.

Some belts "grow" when putting on a cloak, or duster, or vest/pullover/some types of "jackets" and look really stupid when they do so.

NOt being able to wear Cold Weather gloves with jackets! For example not even with the novice tailor padded jacket, or with any long sleeve jacket. If it's cold outside, of course you need a jacket AND cold weather gloves. Lol. Altho I wear them more for the look . . .. and Mon Calamari can't wear them, probably because of their forearm bulge which only shows when they wear short sleeve shirts? in long sleeve shirts their arms look normal like human and so it makes them wonder why they can't wear these gloves which are actually flared out and SHOULD be able to go an them anyway, forearm bulge or no? These gloves ARE flared and should accommadate alot of jackets (I understand if not all, but currently it's not ANY). People buy these naturally expecting they will go on with jackets. When I'm out of my shop and not there to explain to them. So I've quit putting them on my vendor.

Simple Vest. There seems to be a sort of lightening filter/sheen (not shiny, not sure how to describe it) that severely lightens any of the dark colors I apply to it, like black, etc. Sometimes this turns out looking really med lt grey. After a day or two a customer came back to my shop wearing one and it looked more black . . . .

Women's Shoes seems to lighten the color somewhat too. Not as badly as simple vest, but given the limited palette on the Women's shoes compared to other palettes I have, that makes anything other than White or Black (and even black to a small extent) harder or impossible to match to outfits.

Paneled Boots - The palette on this is just, the pinks, purples, and greens, the very limited pinks, etc, makes it REALLY HARD to coordinate these with outfits. Not that many people want these, I think they are great looking, esp when I do get a good color combo. I tend to match the outfits to the boot color combinations as best I can, which seems to work better.

It's either Hide or Wrapped boots that you can change the sole color? No one hardly looks or can even ever really see this . . . .. Perhaps on Standard boots as well.

I would wish for a Bolero type jacket, that doesn't come down to the waist not even nearly, and doesn't cover much on the front either, at least as wide open as a cloak. This would look GREAT with bustiers. And I can see it looking star warsy as well.

Cloak, when equipped on females with no shirt under, is practically obscene. lol. Makes just an open jacket or open vest equipped on shirtless female, practically religious (not really but still). But prolly not need fix, as it would peeve me as a female to have em so a guy could be barechested under them, but different treatment for ladies. Just mention it as a hey kinda thing.

Belted Vest. We can change the main color on the vest, and on the belt, but the trim on the belt, and MORE noticeably the trim, no so skinny trim either, around the neck remains a dark or mostly dark brown. This limits the good color cominations severely as some stuff doesn't look good with brown, and alot of people don't want brown. Even though it has a large color palette, it seems pointless. This neck trim is fairly obvious and not just a thin piping along the edge.

Casual Four seems to have a LOT of vests, belted, long, short, crested, and would have wished for another pant and or shorts, decent ones.

Which brings me to Crested Vest is so ugly fugly it's funny. Course that's just my opinion, I do see a use for even the ugliest of clothes but this one . . .ah well.

Short Skirt at Casual Four should more appropriately be titled Skirt Shorts. They look more like shorts. I can't remember whether males can wear them, but even if they can I don't think even with either of those names any male would.

We NEED a decent pair of shorts that go down the leg a bit like the Short Skirt/Skirt Shorts does, that is not have any skirt in the look, or title of it.

Could also use another type of pant in casual wear four or somewhere. it's alot of tops and not so many pants. All the striped ones are fine, it's not too many stripes as one can always make both the stripe and pant same color (altho on striped slacks it sometimes seems as tho the stripe has a different texture slightly than the rest of the pant).

That's all I can think up for now. lol.

Huh? I'm wearing a Bangle on one wrist, and a metal bracelet on the other right now...are you trying to equip two of the same kind, or one of each?

I think Simple Vest and Women's Shoes look the way they do by design, though it's odd. I always think of the Women's Shoes as an alligator skin style, which helps me reconcile the look in my mind.... The Simple Vest, I still think might be buggy in some odd fashion - there's no real obvious "shiny overlay" to is like on W. Shoes or Rugged Jacket, e.g. Especially if the "color-darkening" thing you mention actually happens that way, that sounds like a bug....

Jenny -


Yeah, trying to wear 2 bangles. I think those metal bracelets are pug-fugly.

Dress slippers: Color 1 and 2 seemed to be reversed. You have a much wider selection of colors for the sole than for the main body of the shoe.

- Almost all of the vests and jackets look way too bulky on a female And I have a tall muscular one. Could females get morefitted versions? I won't wear clothes that are ill-fitting.


- The pullover makes you look like a hunchback, there's way too much material on the upper back. Also you can see the clothes that are under it when you dance.


- The necklaces all need to be adjusted, they float in the air with square parts at the back.


Good luck and thanks for asking!

There is a nice pair of shorts in the Field Wear line, pocketted shorts.. or something like that.

Yes! Pocketed Shorts has been selling great for me the past couple days. They look great in white or black, and not bad in lots of other colors....

Here's another one:
Standard Boots: Looks like a "reversed palettes" thing. The soles have a whole bunch of color choices, but the boot itself only a relatively small number. Really tough to color-match with these now. (Trying to match the yellow of a Simple Vest, and couldn't. Simple Vest is tough to match anyway, but Standard Boots fared worse than the other footwear.)

Infiltrator suits can not be equipped with gunman's duster or the special ops duster. I haven't tried with any other coats, but since it is skin tight it should be equippable with just about anything (even underneath armor) since there would be no graphics clipping issues.
