    Dawntrail benchmark Female Midlander Hyur face 1 eyebags

    The eyebags for midlander face 1 look extremely gross in the new benchmark, even in the worst 6.0 lighting it has never looked that bad. I don't know anyone who asked for puffy eyes on one of the only 2 usable midlander faces
    6.0


    DT 1.1 benchmark



    DT 1.0 benchmark


    The 1.0 benchmark was overall way better for face 1 hyurs even though I was perfectly happy with how I look in 6.0 and wouldn't change a thing, given the choice I would take the 1.0 benchmark anyday of the week.

    also the iris is too large, new small is the old large and my eyes in general are too open but thats just a minor nitpick so its w/e

    Eyebags seem to be a common issue across many faces that has popped up with the new benchmark lighting. I feel like this should have been foreseen when they first started thinking about using "real" rather than pre-set shadows on things.

    I think they need to look at remodelling a lot of the characters to make the shadows fall similarly to the current appearances.

    I loved my Midlander but at the moment I am having issues with the eyebags and also there seems to be a shadow going across her nose that makes it look harsh. I also feel her mouth looks pursed and harsh on some of the mouth choices. There is a lack of colour/shine on the lips. I did prefer the first benchmark even though it needed help, it seemed prettier on the Hyur at least. I can swap between faces as that is not a problem but they all seem to have the pursed mouth >.<

    Face 1 has technically always had these, but in the current build of the game they aren't visible in 99% of lighting. If you ever go into a zone with really bad overhead lighitng though (the Solar in the Rising Stones for example) they get this awful shadow and turn like, practically black. The issue is, now they're visible in practically every lighting environment, it looks really unflattering and I hope they change the mapping to address it.
