Issues with Castle and Dragon, City Port, Dragon Hoard, and Female Elf painting fixtures.

Post by Party in the forest at midnight »

Fixture: Painting (Castle & Dragon), id number 1225, has a few issues.

- The fixture places backwards, the painting part faces away from your character rather than towards you.

You cannot fix this with -rotate_fixture 180 because....

- The fixture is offset from the location where you set it. So it sticks out off the wall when you place it, and when you do -rotate_fixture 180 it ends up behind the wall.

Otherwise, the back and sides of the painting are untextured, they are solid white if you highlight them.

Image


The worst issue with the fixture, though, is it always appears black, like zone lighting doesn't effect it. If you mouse over it, you see the painting. But otherwise it is just a black circle.

Fixture: Painting (City Port), ID 1224, also places backwards. It is even more offset from the placement location than Castle & Dragon. The lighting for it is correct though. It doesn't have a texture on its backside and is see through, although the sides are textured so it's less of a problem than the white rims of Castle & Dragon.

Fixture: Painting (Dragon with Hoard), id 1218, also places backwards and is hugely offset. It also does not have a back texture. The lighting for it is working fine.

Quite a few of these are backwards, and this was reported as they were made. For now one just has to place them as best as one is able, though a fix should happen before long.

It will also fix any existing paintings.

With the lighting issue, I can only suggest positioning a light source such as a brazier or candelabra close by.

I had ultravision on, which should light it up but didn't. The room is very well lit. Light just straight up does not do anything to the Castle & Dragon painting. All of the other paintings are fine.

The backward facing issue has been fixed. It is awaiting a merge and update with the server.

I will take a quick look at the ambient & diffuse colors on the model to see if that helps with the lighting issue.
