Benchmark 1.1 Feedback - Viera

[Freyen]

New benchmark still has issues with the darkened nose feature on viera male face 1.

Left image feature is on, right image is off.



Compared to how it looks ig now



With lighter skin tones it shows but the darker you go it disappears or turns reddish.

This is the same problem happening with the lala tarutaru nose
I really hope they can fix this before launch.

So far my only complaints are:

Dunesfolk nose smudge is still being eaten by what I can only assume is the translucent skin shaders
EW

DT

And yeah, that bottom gif is toggling the feature off (matches skin tone) and on (pink blush).
It's like she has a drunk person's nose! D;

oh i was just about to come here to post about this, i made a whole thread for it during the last benchmark feedback period! https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...ial-feature%29

I didn't even think about the fact that fem lalas would be affected, but that makes so much sense now that both nose facial features broke due to the new way textures are being processed.

putting some example images from my thread here to have it more in one place:
current EW look when toggling the nose



vs in the DT benchmarks



I play a dark skinned viera myself so losing the dark nose and instead having this well...... I do not want to call it poop nose, but i keep thinking that every time I see the bright brown on it. It saddens me a little bit, so I really hope that gets addressed at some point during DT!

It kind of ruins my bun boy. I'm going to submit a bug report with screenshots as evidence because it makes him look like he has allergies or something.
