Long Term Bugs

[Zep]

Hmmmmm, first, please read this in a level tone. Discussing facts, not attacking or contentious.

 

I am back after a bit of a break. I always come back eventually. 🙂

 

Prior to my break I recall reading about the Diagnostic Client, which I consistently use, and how the "Low hanging fruit" of the Bug-Tree has been picked already.

 

I notice some of the bugs I recall, even from live, are still there. The infamous friend list bug, for example, that shows people online when they are not.

 

One of my toons despite having a chest piece it doesn't show -well it does on the costume screen and the icon shop screens, just not on the character in play.

 

Little things like that. I had more, but of course, my mind wanders. The joys of maturity, right?

 

Does running the Diagnostic Client really help? What else can I, as a persons with too much time on my hands, who is not more then a basic, the language, not even good enough to call myself basically skilled at coder able to do to help?

 

Is there a list of these legacy (and presumably not easy to fix) bugs out there, along with newly introduced ones? Knowledge is power and more eyes looking at may help.

 

Thanks,

It would help a lot more if you provided the devs with the specific model type (male, female, or huge), costume piece menu it is found on, and costume piece name. (Edit: And maybe a screenshot of the piece.) You can look at example reports in the "Report Costume Issues Here" forum which is the 5th (last) pinned thread on the Bug Reports forum.

"One of my toons despite having a chest piece it doesn't show -well it does on the costume screen and the icon shop screens, just not on the character in play."

I'd put GOOD money on you being in SG mode, and the SG Chest emblem replacing the chest piece.  The Diag Client is really for catching crashes that happen but don't provide full code paths in the memory dumps.

Checking that right now. 

 

Yes, that is it. Thank you!

 

Now, is that a bug or WAI?

SG Mode overriding conflicting costume pieces? WAI.

SG Mode is a PIA since launch.
