Dark Elf rendering
Bug Report: http://vgoemulator.net/index.php?p=bugs&id=26
I /bugged this in game, but I couldn't post screenshots there, so I'm posting it here as well. I'm not sure how this could be a server bug, as I would have though the client did all rendering. On the other hand, this never happened in the release client that I saw.
Anyway, I have tried creating a couple dark elf characters, on both my own server and New Telon, and every time the character looks fine on the character select screen, but does not look fine when I log into the game. Here is a typical example:
and
It doesn't matter how dark I set the skin tone in character creation, the Dark Elf still winds up as pale as a High Elf.

Re: Dark Elf rendering
So, when I was investigating this problem, I came across something curious. Race #4 is High Elf. Race #3 is Dark Elf. Race #2 is Dwarf. And Race #1 is, well, here is the screenshot:
To recreate, go into the characters table and change the race for one of your characters to 1, then launch the client.
Unfortunately, when you log into the game, the character doesn't render at all. Oh, well. Back to being an elf.

Re: Dark Elf rendering
Yes, there was this post about it as well. Not sure why it's still an issue, I thought we worked it out months ago.
Re: Dark Elf rendering
This should be fixed now when John pushes it to New Telon. All the other races will need to be tested when he does to make sure nothing was missed with them.
Re: Dark Elf rendering
Cool! Thanks. I'll poke around with DE and other races once the next rev is available.
