Re: Updated Tameable Beast Image Comparisons
Only issue is I forgot about the vultures and a few other models like the snakes, whoops.
Now that you guy's compared the hyena models with the old, I'm no longer a fan.

Re: Updated Tameable Beast Image Comparisons
The crystal one actually looks a lot better than how it appeared in WoW Model Viewer. There are shiny effects make it look far more crystalline and I'm personally pretty happy with it:
On the other hand, the same effects on the black widow actually work against it - in game I think it looks a lot worse than it looked in WMV. You'll remember there were concerns that the updated black skin looked very matte and grey-black, rather than the shiny dark-black of a real black widow, which the old model captured. Unfortunately the shiny overlay doesn't help that, instead it makes it look frosted, like a blueberry and even less shiny-black:
Those were the last things I wanted to check. I think it's time to write up an official feedback post now.

A slap in the face for all hunters who camped hours to tame Arash-ethis way back in classic/tbc.
but since they even removed original player models, phasing one race out after the next, I have little hope that they will reconsider, they obviously think of themselves as infallible demigods, and ignoring feedback is their specialty.

They altered the original Quilen model based on feedback, as well as the new bear model.
Re: Updated Tameable Beast Image Comparisons
It's incorrectly skinned in the modelviewer and has been since the first alpha build, I think. It has the same issue as the fire scorpion, essentially. Is that also a thing ingame?

I just went to have a look and, unfortunately, their leg is broken. T_T

Yeah, that bugs me the hardest. I can overlook inconsistent colors, but having one of their front legs broken is going to bug me beyond anything.Vephriel wrote:Oof....Qraljar wrote:Not related to the different colorations, but do the minespiders on the actual alpha have the same problem with their front most left leg?

I am saddened to be the bearer of bad news, but that option doesn't works anymore for some races now.Valnaaros wrote:Except that you can go back to the old player models. There is an option in the advanced settings that lets you do that.

Re: Updated Tameable Beast Image Comparisons
no, you really can't, if you are playing an elf of any sort, draenei, or tauren, those races have had their real models removed and ticking off the box does NOTHING for them. Trolls will be next.Valnaaros wrote:Except that you can go back to the old player models. There is an option in the advanced settings that lets you do that.
Also, since the beginning of Legion, using "old models" are not the real original models, it's the new model rig (with the new, awkward animations) which has the old texture pasted over it- in some cases, this results in an even worse look because the facial structure is different.
The only time the option was actually working was during WoD.

Re: Updated Tameable Beast Image Comparisons
I'm personally still not pleased with the crystal spiders, even after seeing them in game. To me the textures and colours just look like pebble or stone, not crystalline in the least. They look like dirty glass. What I really miss is the sharp, geometric facets the original had, that really sold the look on being something that was like diamond.

Don't forget to add praise for anything you think they did really well. I mentioned the tarantulas because they stood out as popular in the survey here.
Thanks
