New hrothgar hairstyles are really bad.

I don't think punishing other players should be the way to go, as the Viera players are sticking with us and trying to help and give their support. I see 2 ways forward: 1. They get a small team to sort this issue out. or 2. Rework the Hrothgar models to have fewer limitations.

/s means the statement that preceeded it was sarcastic, and that the sarcasm ended at /s. It's like a full stop for sarcasm.

which is not only absurd but a ridiculously easy fix which is why it's so strange they decided to just... lop them off. it isn't that difficult to just pin them to the top of a hairstyle.

but i sound like a broken record at this point.

But how will the poor devs adhere to the strict polygon limit set in ARR/PS3 days while giving us both hair AND ears?

You only have 2 options, either SE drop the female Heothgar and pour all efforts into improving Heorhgar base model or deal with Hrothgar medial is not compatible to new hair stayles

We all do at this point, let's face it.

We can speculate and theorize. Some of us do know how 3D models for customizable videogame characters are made, and not only have explained it, but also fixed the problem independently. But at the end of the day it still stands that there's a reason behind their decision. Either a lack of some resource, knowledge, priorities, standards... or even the process of how they do these models to begin with. And that's without getting into the "they don't like X race" argument. We'd only know if they actually sit down and explain things properly rather than just say "Oh yeah it's because the way we made the ears makes it awkward" without any further explanation.

So if it truly isn't that difficult, they could tell us more about what's causing the hold up. Good luck getting an answer though, they tend to be rather silent.

Frankly, going by what has been said. If they have changed hrothgar ears to be attatched to the hair. I frankly won't touch any new hairstyles. But even though that's a sufficient solution for me, It doesn't excuse the horrible treatment hrothgar get from SE. Ears right now are attached to the head. How do we know this? The hrothgar in Gangos who has F2 H6 has the same ears as me, a hrothgar with F2. If they change it to the ears being part of the hair... That's just making it MORE complicated.

Also... The reason why this stands out. EVEN WITH these ear metadata flags on gearpieces. The ears are still hidden. For example, the werewolf ears. With some camera tricks and some play with character scaling you can look into the model... And Much like every other race, when we wear the werewolf ears. Our hrothgar ears are hidden via Metadata boolean flags.
.
That little space where you can see into the head. The lower jaw, etc. That's caused since the ears aren't there.

Viera hairstyles have holes in them specifically for the ears...

So.... Why not us?

This is going to sound mean but he'll probably do a video where he cries on stream and then the whole community will forgive him. This happens every single time something wrong happens with the game.

Oh absolutely. And then whenever something bad happens again in the future people will go YOSHI P CRIED HAVE SOME RESPECT!People don’t seem to realize a big reason this is happening is because people just forget when there’s problems like this.
