    Now, now, let's be fair here. They remember lalafells too.

    Let's be honest. They aren't even half-assing it. This is quarter-ass at best.

    I would have thought that, but amazingly - lalafells ears started disappearing too

    2. The game's underlying systems are so messed up and saddled with dysfunctional legacy code that adding a slight mesh alteration of a different headpeice is some herculean feat of a project for their developers.

    Either is inexcusable after FIVE YEARS of Hrothgar being introduced honestly. The community babies the developers way too much.
    Considering that, modders, hm, I mean, tos violators, have managed to do that, I think we can say that the second option is wrong.

An official game feature can't let that happen. It has to work perfectly all the time every time, or it can't exists at all.

    Now why exactly it's so hard for lions and bunnies wear hats, I have no idea. But if a fix was really that simple the devs would have long since done it themselves.
    At the end of the day, that person has done a hell of a lot more work than the dev team ever will.

    Also. Work perfectly every time? The devs didn't even bother getting most body pieces to properly work on female Hrothgar, and there's been zero acknowledgement in their known issues posts that it mght be something they'll fix anytime soon.

    I would just be really happy if they turned off ears/horns/etc. when you put on headgear. I literally don't care if a helmet has ear holes or friggen pointy bits where the ears are meant to be. If I don't like how it looks I can glam it to something else. But give ME the option.

    I sure wouldn't. I'm tired of SE removing the features that are the whole reasons why I chose my race...
    It's invalidating to my first choice I made as a player and just looks bad when 2 ft of my character's silhouette or half of my character's spine get chopped off when I put up a hood or wear a certain shirt... If I wanted to play a hyur I'd've rolled one...

    Tailoring an article of clothing to accommodate racial features is ideal, but clipping is fine imo since you can just assume there is a hole at the site of the clipping. (Much like how the horn or glasses headwear clips with hair. You just assume the individual hairs are going around the obstacle)
    They should just put new hairs on pause until they can add the compressed racial hairs to viera and hrothgar that are 5 years overdue now... OR just let those of us who aren't wearing racial hairs actually use our compressed hair model with hats...

    you have to understand that they have the worst fucking coders in recorded history with the most basic shitty engine ever developed.

    but ya know. small indie company can't afford a good engine.

    imagine if we get this game ported to a game with an actual physics engine. that'd be something.
