Mazer.8923 Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 (edited) Can we please get this fixed? It would be really nice to be able to see the whole weapon in the preview screen... https://imgur.com/G09Giqg Edited November 14 by Mazer.8923 adding picture 7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danikat.8537 Posted November 14 Share Posted November 14 (edited) Annoyingly if you use the chat code to preview this sword and tick 'weapon only' it's horizontal, most greatswords are vertical. As well as making it hard to see clearly it makes it hard to compare to other greatswords. On a related note I've got a question for anyone who has already bought it: is it actually bigger than other greatswords? I have an asuran guardian whose whole premise is 'tiny girl with a huge sword holding off hordes of enemies' so I'm tempted to get it for her, but it doesn't look any bigger than existing absurdly oversized greatswords (the Vigil one for example). Also I agree the preview window has needed many improvements for years, this isn't the first time it's been impossible to see an item properly because it doesn't fit in the window, even some characters don't fit properly.

Zebulous.2934 Posted November 15 Share Posted November 15 How does it compare to the charrzooka rifle skin? I know the charrzooka is huge compared to the person wielding it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monotreme.7903 Posted November 15 Share Posted November 15 I think that's part of the humor behind it. I dunno, could be wrong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obfuscate.6430 Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 Jokes aside, it would be nice if they added a zoom in/out feature to previews. They have it for mounts, so it proves it can be implemented. There's been several times when I was attempting to preview something on a character and part of it was cut off. I think the system could use a small overhaul. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because theres a vertical metric it has fit in.  That check isn’t done on the horizontal. Its a neat trick, since they didn’t consider oversized swords in the original code.  Rotate the model 90• and BAM it fits. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I previewed it with the character holding it this one didn't seem any bigger than previous over-sized greatswords. But as we've been discussing it's hard to see many of them clearly in the little preview window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still prefer Obfuscate.6430's idea that we should have the ability to zoom out on charc preview panels, not just on mounts. Would make life easier, especially for Norns xD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
