6.1 female Tauren updates

[Deleted]

Check face 4 again, it's no where near as bad as the others. It's more "seething" than "BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY, URP URP URP"

[Friendlyimmolation]

Male Orcs are perfect imho.

I wish they'd fix the Male NE idle animation, that drunken swing is as bad if not worse than the godawful run.

Was hoping for more of a beak nose for atleast one face, and the ability to be a brown orc, and to be able to stand up straight.

That new male NE run animation actually looks good. No more weird bouncing.

It looks better, but still far from good:
-Shoulders aren't thrown forward anymore, but now they're moving far too much into the back (without a cloak it now looks as if he pulls a hollow back/pushes is buttocks backwards/upwards)
-I find the "running on tip toes" part worse than before (just the feet!), though the overall leg movement looks smoother and less errattic than before. Maybe a tad too slow
-They broke the chest during the run. He's basically moving the upper part of his ribcage in the opposite direction of the middle part, result looks somewhat as if he has the chest of a female (attached significantly too high).

Hey guys, saw this thread and wanted to check it out myself.
I recorded a short video for those looking to take a look at the Male Night Elf Model's run animation and how its changed.
Its actually pretty substantial!
Check it out here!

I just checked it on the ptr before your video and yes I think it's a huge improvement! I would nearly switch my blood elf to night elf.. Nah I am just kidding blood elves will be amazing I think;p

I'm highly dissappointed with the new female draenei faces.
They seem like a huge graphical downgrade compared to the live ones.

Yes they do resemble the old faces more but imo this is not a good thing.
They look crappied and lower definition now.

I'm upset, I picked my draenei face and fell in love with it over the last months.
Now its just not the draenei I picked and there is no check off 6.1. changes options.

What a sucky idea to release models and change them after they are live!

I prefere the 6.1 ptr ones over the live ones tbh :-/ guess they cant please everyone.

These are tweaks and fixes for the existing options, not adding new options. That's something they said might come later, after the new models are completely finished.

The eyes are less cyan again, which is a plus for me.


(Left: 6.1, Right: Live)

Unfortunately, I'm mixed on the actual facial changes. It does look lower res.

[Odile]

About those Draenei females... This is a before and after comparison:



Thank you Blizzard! This is what I wanted

[Deleted]

I'm happy with the Tauren changes, not so sure about the Draenei, will have to see it live I guess.

Try it with MSAA x4/x8

[CosmicGuitars]

Male draenei still lack their eye glow, female draenei with dark purple skin also lack the eye glow still.

Hope it's fixed?

That is with it.

Could somebody post HQ pictures of changes on other races too? Like female human, or male if anything changed at all. I'm also curious about the undead.

The preview was already amazing to me, so if blood elves rock with the animations as well Il be a happy person.

*crosses fingers* Don't let the bounce now happen to us!

[Rae888]

Human males had their two-tone hair/beard problem fixed.

Edit: also for female Tauren, I believe the sitting pose for robes was mostly fixed. You can still make out disembodied feet if you move the camera all the way to the ground, but it's far less obvious.

[Wilian]

Some of the female orc faces look more wrinkly and old now.

Female tauren skins that are back:



Black, Tan, Frosty

That passive stance smile looks just as creepy as ever though x.x

[Deleted]

That is with it.

That 6.1 picture does not look like it has any AA. Maybe AA does not work or something in ptr?

Edit: also change your ptr screenshot quality to better one like you have on live.

It's nice you guys tell us the fixes, but for us who can't see it doesn't help much. Images, please?
