Dawntrail character graphics update - opinions, requests and discussion megathread

I think I found out why hair shading seems so inconsistent from place to place. You can easily reproduce this using GPose.



Seriously, what is going on here? It's like half of its shading contribution is a uniform term.

That's definitely a head scratcher.

I would like to add to this thread by linking one that myself and a few others contributed to, we did a lot of work and I really hope that it is seen by those overseeing this graphical change. Our feedback covers both Sun and Moon Miqo'te Face 3 with Eyes 3 + 4 and Mouth 4. OP and I really went into depth about our grievances and I feel that the majority of them are still present in 7.0.

Happy to report that this is fixed! Awesome!

Can't really spot any changes on roes though. I feel like the ash nose might be darker again, but I forgot to take clear before/after pics, so someone else should confirm.

Oh, I will add that I'm really happy to see that this is fixed, at least... I was noticing that several of my characters' hair colors looked less affected by the blue in the character selection screen.
