These costume patterns (located in the upper body Chest area) look nice, however I do have a complaint about how they're sorted. The patterns in this part of the costume creator are generally sorted alphabetically, but these new patterns are all down at the bottom of the list. While this does make it easier to find the new patterns since they're all grouped together, it just becomes a headache down the road.

I think that the new patterns should be sorted with the old ones, in alphabetical order.

Anyone have screenshot samples of the costume patterns?

What about the base items?

 

I really should logon to Justin 🙂

I love you guys. It's been so very long since the last news I had started to give up up on the game being worked on. Sentinel still has wrong information in the text boxes and bugs in powers not doing what they says they do, and a player in the forums having worked out how the Offensive Opportunity is so gimped.

Did not see this on any of the focused feedback threads, but did see it on the Patch Notes.

Make it somewhat less likely for defeated enemies to be twisted into pretzels:

• Overhaul ragdoll parameters. The spring and dampen settings must have been different in older versions of PhysX, because the ones in NwRagdoll did almost nothing; which is why everything was so limp.
• Fixed joints (for all bones that don't have a spherical or hinge joint with special parameters) are apparently not working correctly, so replace them with a hinge joint that has a very small range of motion.

 

Was there a particular reason for the tinkering of this?  Part of the fun (for me at least) was seeing some of those hilarious ragdoll positions.

I recognize some base items (statues, cemetary pieces) as having been added to beta a few months ago and then removed because of some issues.  I noticed the plants that had been added then don't seem to be in this update.  Don't remember what they all were, but I do remember there were African violets.

 

Were the plants the problem before?  Is there hope for their return?

 

There's a lot of new stuff and people building outdoor, medical, Arachnos or cave bases among others will be very happy.  Just curious because I really liked those plants.

A couple of the base items seem to be having some issues with transparency. The windows in the Mansion Wall pieces show the grid below the floor when you look through them

[Greyhawke]

Same for the Dr Aeon Atom statue. Not a big deal, really, and I would rather have them with this minor issue than not have them at all

Not all of the new costume patterns are showing up on each body part.  I made a male toon using the new Occulus pattern.  It showed on his chest, gloves, legs, and boots.  Then, made a female toon with the Malaise pattern.  It showed on her chest and legs, but was not showing as an option for gloves or boots.

 

BTW, I love the new costume patterns.  I have several characters they will be perfect for!

Unable to enter base edit mode after interacting with an NPC (icon employee) but having ended the interaction and deselected the NPC. This is in the entrance hall:

I just wanna say THANK YOU for reinstating the Malaise pattern. I had it on my dark defender on live, and incorporated his tutelage under Malaise in his backstory. It was irritating when they took it from us, and I'm glad to have access to it once more!

Malaise is not showing up on males either for gloves or boots.

I second this, the new Tech Ramps are a welcomed add on in my book 🙂

Completely agree.  Will be good to have some statues I can use beyond the Roan female.

Woohoo!  Thanks for this!!   Can't wait to check them all out.  Don't suppose there is a list of the new items anywhere? 🥰

[DarkEye86]

Are there any Chances, that more NPC could be added to the Base? Like Soldiers and so on, so you could have like a private Army to guard your Base 😄

 

Also, a friend told me from another server, that they added over 600 new costume pieces for the hero creator, like freakshow arms. Could you guys see something like this for Homecoming too?

[Leandro]

There is a new patch, so make sure to read the Patch Notes for August 17th, 2019.

• Increased Supergroup membership limit from 150 to 300.

very nice 

[Vanden]

If the Peacebringer FX are being looked at, could we possibly see Solar Flare and White Dwarf Flare returned to the Foot Stomp animation? Also, it would be really great if the Light Form FX actually stuck to our character, instead of staying put while the character animates around it.

 

I like that fix for the White Dwarf Step FX. I honestly didn't think Peacebringer FX even existed for the power.
