View Full Version : PLEASE fix these graphical glitches

It really annoys me when glaringly obvious glitches aren't resolved. I'm not one to complain about development much. I really like the effort that's been put into the game; especially recently. That said, there have been a number of graphical glitches that have existed in the game for way too long at this point. I think It would be great to finally see them taken care of.
1) The backwards foot on beetles.
2) The literal crack on Cid's butt (had been fine; glitched out sometime mid-CoP development)
3) Fenrir has a bad eye (this is a less obvious one - a few vertices are out of wack on one of his eyes - the other looks completely fine)
Please add any more that I might have overlooked.

While they are at it there are some really irritating pathing issues in some places. The famous stairs in Ordelle's Caves, several small invisible walls in Upper Jeuno right by M&Ps market and on the way to battilia downs form there, and a mining point that I sometimes can't reach in Zeruhn mines just past the leeches because my character refuses to step up the ledge unless I hit it at just the right angle. An there are more. All easily reproducible on a fresh clean installation. I've reported them all years ago and they still persist. These kinds of bugs are plain embarrassing in a game this old.
Tarus lose an eye socket when they run. Some textureless polygons in East Ronfaure near bridges.

The floating flowers in Konschtat Highlands. There is also a flower floating head height in Dynamis-Beaucedine (probably the regular version of the zone too), I have a screenshot of me standing with a flower coming out of my head. In addition to the "invisible walls" in Jeuno, there is also one at the North-West zone line in Tavnazian Safehold.

Any chance of ever getting any of these taken care of?

Do you really think these are bad enough of a complaint to take staff away from working on new content to work on?

My personal pet peeve is the texture map mess in Ranguemont Pass. Anyone who has been there knows what I'm talking about.

There is also an invisible wall right near where you zone into Tav Safehold with the ring.

The Cid's teeth thing says otherwise.

I actually don't mind the beetles foot thing, it's like the continuity errors in films like the guy wearing a wrist watch in gladiator or the car in the tunnel in bond (can't remember which one). I guess the other graphical quirks are more annoying if they are physical barriers but I can live with most of them and would rather the devs spent their priceless time on other issues lol!
And besides they have at least another 10 years to make the game perfect before we all stop playing....... right??
Edited due to spell chequer problems!

Yeah well I haven't seen the staff come out and say "sorry we have to push back all these updates to inventory and dynamis etc we had planned because we need to spend time to fix cids teeth!"
Frankly the QA dept should catch things like the huge gap in his britches as well as most of whats been brought up in this thread. The teeth may have been some kind of inside joke - no other NPC has choppers like ol' Cid.
Anyway, I Don't believe its right to tell us we shouldn't bring these things to someones attention; its not our jobs to weigh the importance of every potential task even if they do a poor job of it in your opinion.

I think these graphical glitches are limited just to you people who seem to notice things that aren't there. What backward foot beetle bug? What bad eye? What any of this? I have lots a recordings... screenshots... etc. I can't find any thing mentioned here...

would rather see a piece of spinach stuck in there. or braces.
and have toilet paper stuck to his foot.
and why can't Lion, Prishe or Lilisette have "wardrobe malfunctions"

You know how they are, by bringing this up you could see update notes "Fixed beetles foot graphical bug" and that will be done in place of something more whorthwhile.
Damn even on the fourms, they answer stupid pointless questions any competent player coulde answer instead of the truely wanted and needed ones.

Unhappy with some "important" issue being ignored? Complain louder instead of blaming your fellow posters.
Hey site staff, care to comment on this? Looks like its going to keep taking us off topic...
