-Hood and appearing headless!

Post by Royal Blood »

Hello,

Wanted to document an issue I've seen!

While the -hood command is active, and you try to transfer servers, it -always- results in a hard crash in my experience.

I've tested this a few times and found out it was an issue. I only noticed when someone said my characters head was missing. Typing -hood made her head show back up. I was then able to transfer to another server without issue. Doing -hood again, then attempting to transition servers resulted in a hard crash once again.

So having the hood active is causing my character to hard crash on every server transition. Normal transitions are fine, it's only the jump between servers where it's having an issue.

Specifically tested the Surface to UD and UD - Surface

I do not crash on server transition, but if I transition with the hood on, then I cannot see my head or any other hooded head from then on. Only way to fix it is to restart the game after quitting. Tested on 8193.13

I'm on the latest version, and this is happening to me too.

Does happen on my drow aswell. I believe those having issues also play drow?
Since they have a different type of -hood it may be related..

You are about 9 updates behind. Should be on 8193.13.

Let me know if you have issues under this update.

Weird. I can’t say I’ve encountered this myself. Might be something to report to Beamdog then if this is the case.

I had not even realized I Was so far behind hah. I think I set that awhile ago when one of the updates or whatever wasn't pushed on the servers. I'll update if it still is weird.

Just bumping this. Since the heads hak update I've had issues where not only my head but other players' heads would also disappear. It only happens with hak heads, and most frequently after a server transition. It's not consistent either. My head might be visible for me, but not for others. OR, it might not be visible to me, but visible for others. I'm not the only one experiencing it, me and other people send each other tells when heads stop appearing.

I'm currently on v80.8193.13. It should be up to date, Steam doesn't say I have any new updates for the game.
