    Falcon Mount Sizing

    so I've seen some conflicting reports.
    Has anyone tested to see if it's true that any race will fit the falcon mount properly as long as you don't mess with the height slider at creation?

    I play Roe, and mine is bigger to accommodate. Lala's have super tiny ones.

    I meant more along the lines of, like i made a highlander and i did make her on the tall side. Her feet stick out the bottom of the hull and her hands are so far past the handle bars that they're more in line with her wrists yet I've seen pictures of elezen which are comparable height fitting it perfectly
    I have a friend that plays miqote and he has similar problems yet I've seen several photos of miqote fitting it perfectly

    I've seen roegadyn who's legs clip through the hull from hips all the way to feet with the handlebars embedded inside their thumb yet I've seen pictures of roegadyn that almost fit it proper

    seen lala riding around who's hands grip the bars proper and some other lala whos hands are in line with the bars but are floating above them with a pretty big gap

    I've noticed my character looks oddly oversized on several other mounts too just not to such an obvious degree and trying to figure out if it is all about a sweet spot on the height slider or some other factors involved since it seems every race can fit properly as long as you get some factor done correctly

    I play a hyur and did adjust the height slider at creation, I fit fine in the falcon mount.

    My male Elezen is maximum height and fits fine without clipping. Hands don't touch the handlebars properly though (it doesn't bother me but I'd hate to clip through the actual hull). Most of the issues I have seen have been with Highlander models.

    found out how to get my character creation data since i didn't save it before and turns out my highlander actually is at 50.
    Thinking maybe the problem is highlander adjustable sized mounts are scaled for height=0
    no proof yet but would explain why highlanders tend to look a little off on a lot of mounts
    don't really want to burn a fantasia to find out though...
    wonder how long it would take me to get a character to 20 for science >_>;

    2-3 hours. Use a new world, and all exp+ items, 3%+ from bufffood and you will get to 20 before the fight with the ascian and gargoyle.

    If you're referring to the pictures I posted of my Elezen fitting nicely, I went back later and checked the slider, and she was at 52, with 50 being the center and default. So, if we're correct in assuming the Falcon is built to the default height of each race and not scaling, then that's why my girl doesn't clip.

    I think this is how it's done for all mounts that have different sizes per each race, verses the one size fits all mounts with each race/gender sitting on it with a different pose. IE the differently sized chocobos and horses verses the Ahriman or Behemoth.

    It's definitely a weird QA issue, but I do think it's a height slider sweet spot deal.

    My Lalafell should be the minimum and the handlebars fit fine.
