Update 40 Preview 1: Visible Cloaks Feedback Thread

[Cocomajobo]

This thread is for feedback on both the appearances and animations of visible cloaks. For full release notes on this Preview push please look here.

Helpful information about visible cloaks in this preview is included below:

• All newly looted random loot cloaks should come with a visual appearance.
• Most named cloaks should currently have a visual appearance attached to them. Not all currently do. If you find one with no visual appearance, please let us know! (As it may be one that was overlooked and yet on our docket)
• Mirror of Glammering now allows you to create a cosmetic cloak the same way you can make cosmetic items of other types.
• There is now a cosmetic cloak slot in the inventory menu
• There is a new command "/showcloak" which can be set to "on" or "off" in order to display your cloak or not.

IMPORTANT TO NOTE

• If you see any animation problems at all, regardless of whether you are wearing a cloak, please let us know. Every character animation in the game has been affected by the introduction of cloaks. There are almost certainly still things that need ironing out and the more info you provide us the better shape we'll be in when U40 launches.
• As listed above, most named cloaks should currently have a visual appearance attached to them but not all have been finished. If you find any with no visual appearance, please let us know.
• Character Copies to Lamannia are not available for Preview 1.

There is currently no way to turn off cloaks as far as I can see.

Also, Legendary Scarlet Scale Cloak is awesome:

The command works, thanks! I wasn't aware of the command. There is nothing on the paper doll UI in inventory though.

This shot is the legendary Scarlet Scale Cloak. I tend to like the ones that have intricate designs like this one. But. . .

Legendary Twisthallow Cloak:





Epic Platinum Mirror Cape (mostly solid):




And there are cloaks that have a simple design such as this new piece of gear, Cloak of the Mountain:

I really liked all the ones I saw. I hope you get character transfers working for preview 2 so that I can actually look at the vast array of cloaks I had prepared.

Woah, good job on this one artists .

Liking the night cloak too.

[Chacka_DDO]

I was for another reason on Lamannia but I saw this:



as you can see the cloak hoovers with a quite big distance over the shoulders.
But so far I can tell the cloaks seem to be in general well accomplished.

[Iriale]

there is a visual bug with Legendary Mist-laden Vestment armor and cloaks (happens with many cloaks)

There are some problems with clipping of the cloaks in Beta 1, lack of animations of the cloaks on PDK and I think also Half-Orcs masculine, the females PDK this problem, some breeds then the lower part as for the female elves cross the legs and breaks a bit of the atmosphere.

there is a visual bug with Legendary Mist-laden Vestment armor and cloaks (happens with many cloaks)

I noticed it too, but I think they are not the only "Outfit" that have this clipping problem (I can honestly solve this problem with the command / showcloak on-off), I can not import my characters on lammania I could not verify if other armors like slavers lords' execution mail plate and the good intentions ardened Hide Armor have a similar problem, this has been very frustrating because this is also part of Beta one's feead back and not being able to look at it we can not say with certainty if there are other problems.

In general all the cloaks I liked even if in some caisi as for the mantle of the morning lord should be reviewed, I saw it in beta and I honestly do not like it at all does not match with the outfit the solution would make it similar to the coat of PDK mono chromatic and simple...

...even if ...the bottom part does not make me crazy it seems dirty with mud or earth, and for a character like a PDK I imagined something monochromatic and clean... in any case that model of coat that was made on the PDK I would like to see it in other colors, but maybe there is the problem and that you should check which cloaks are that look ... an idea I would have made it and I hope they are these cloaks here:

http://ddowiki.com/page/Item:Prismat...let_(Level_27)
http://ddowiki.com/page/Item:Prismatic_Cloak,_Green
http://ddowiki.com/page/Item:Prismat...rey_(Level_17)

I am convinced that the cloaks of the Storm Horns and the end redward of the quest giver will give that exact cosmetic look ... but I would like if there was more than a slightly dirty version of the earth, even a cleaner and more elegant version, I would be very happy, this type of coat is perfect (for those like me) for those who do not want a cloak with strange symbols or various ornaments on it, but want something simple and clean.

To facilitate the search for cosmetics and understand which ones have a correct visual appearance and which ones I report here (I hope complete) of all the cloaks currently in play, hoping that a Devs or a player tries to do a thorough research and try to post the following cloaks here on this post:

Will bug these items too.
PDK male animation::strafe right while walking forward is impacted. Left leg goes forward and up, right goes behind and up and both stay in that position with character appearing to float.

Named cloaks can no longer be fed to sentient jewels. No error message, it just refuses to be fed.

Not sure if this was asked, will we be able to change the color of these? Or... better yet, will we have options for color?
The Legendary Scarlet Cloak is cool, and it would look awesome in different colors.

I'm having a UO flashback, dye tub specifically to get a blue cloak on my char.

Obligatory: "Can I get the cloak in Cornflower Blue?"
