About the DK eyes

[Shakana]

Hey guys. Remember some of you i did a complaint post about the previous PTR eyes? Ok now this ones are a bit better, imo, and NO BULBS xD

But what do you think yourself?



(i can't find my post.)

this i like

[Lothaeryn]

Any examples for other races? Blood Elves always had the easier time with DK glow effects cause it was part of their base racial model.

Otherwise it looks solid, more intimidating than before.

Certainly i agree with that!

About others examples i don't know, just blood elves. But i can post here if i see something

They properly glow instead of having a texture layered on top of them, I actually really dig it.

In all honesty, it looks a lot better now. Kind of gives more depth to them, unlike previous variations (default included) with static blue glow in front of eyes.

The only time I really get a good look at the front of my characters is the character selection screen.

It actually puts some respect. I was on PTR looking at all of them, looks so damn good! Might not be the final product but it's so well done, touching a bit more or not doesn't matter, like this is crazy good.

Reminds me of the Jailer eyes.

Or a bat in the dark! i like it.

Ye the other one kind of even passed through the cheeks, would project on their cheeks. Not the previous PTR, i mean the old live retail glow.

At the end of the day it's just less glow and comes down to personal taste. The eyes still look like a single-color filled bmp. While I don't expect highly detailed eyes, a bit more than 1.5 circles and some transparency/reflection would have been nice.

Maybe it looks better in motion, in screenshots it's not that much of a difference to me.

It's different, if you go PTR you can see, it's actually nice. I'm happy they changed it.

[Keyblader]

actually very haunting now, looks great

[LemonDemonGirl]

Now they need to make it that you can have wispy eyes like the Lich King/Bwonsamdi. Now THAT would be epic!

Not true, they've completely changed how the glow is generated and it's point of origin. No more torch lights, no more clipping, and you can actually see the texture of the eyes. It's far more than just turning down the dial on the glow meter.

Looks so good on PTR now

They basically removed the floating sprites in front of the eyes and made the actual eyes emissive.
It looks better, doesnt obscure the eye texture nor the eyelids

your Original Thread.

as we said in that, the first set of changes you saw were exactly that.. works in progress. a layering of the eyes were happening. and now you see the difference as more layers were added, nothing to worry about.

to the point, yes, the way the eyes are rendered now is a much better improvement over the old style. glad this will happen to other eye colors/types.

That's good , but I liked the lights off version too . Would have been too good to trigger alliance high elf fanatics

Ah, thanks i couldn't find it! Yes i would be really disappointed if it stayed how it was previously. And ofc, you were right it would have progress but i was kind of afraid they wouldn't work on it much and stayed like that.

I can say i'm actually happy now, how it is, it's looking good, and knowing the direction they are going into now, i can say now i like it.
