Bulkiness on Female Hrothgar Body and Arm Pieces

[MeowMita]

I changed my race to female Hrothgar and while I am enjoying playing the new race greatly, there is an issue with many body and arm pieces look bulkier than normal, especially around the elbow. This issue doesn't occur with more pieces that are more form fitting to the arms / hands but some of the more looser pieces look ridiculously sized. I've added a few examples below with the base character arm on the left as reference.



With the Gleaner body pieces as an example, looking at the how large the arm sleeves are:



Comparing to how they look on hyur.


Overall the arm pieces that have this oversized bulk should be reduced to be a bit sleeker and fit the arm profile.

Another example is with the Seigneur Chest piece with how the upper arm flaps hang weirdly compared to the base arm.

Add this to the list of things they're never going to fix on Hrothgals.

They'll parade out 2 or 3 new hairstyles per patch and pat themselves on the back for it.

Please continue contributing to this thread rather than making new ones, it was made first and localizing our complaints and proofs is the best way to even have a slight chance of devs noticing.

Signatures please ::sigh:: We need SE to take us more seriously on these issues.

There's actually nothing they can do about this. Female hrothgar use the same bodies as s as all other non-lalafems, and then the characters are given their unique shape through skeleton deformations. The arms of Hrothgals are just female highlanders moved outward with the shoulder and then scaled X+Y. This trick is also how in the fight with the necromancer in Hero's Gauntlet, when she uses corpse explosion and the bodies get all fat before blowing up, they're doing so through bone deformation. Clothing doesn't have unique bones. They use a very economical and old-timey way of turning one base thing into many unique looking things!
