Guild Wars 2

Not sure if this should go here or in the bug section.

I have a female ele and a guildie gave me a full set of lvl 60ish winged armor set and I transmuted the armor as I didn’t want to wait till I was that high.. this armor set I think is one of the best in the game… Anyways I came across a very distracting issue when it comes to the human female models.

You can see the models are in multiple parts (I assume most games are) but the way they’re put together here is pretty bad, especially with the human idle animation. The more she leans one way the worse it gets. I don’t know if the other races are like this or not.. But this is one thing I don’t know if it can be fixed or not. Same as the rest of the game is pretty top notch.

I think you can post it there: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Seeing-map-armors-stuck-weapons-or-other-art-issues/first#post114262

Human females are just incredibly glitchy. Basically, if your character is not anorexic, her hips and thighs are going to clip through most skirts. Go in the character creator, pick a warrior, pick any body that looks remotely healthy (like the bottom-left one) and hit back to see the high-level armor preview.

As an example of what I mean, here’s my character in Pit Fighter gear. =(

I don’t mind clipping here and there in games; as its pretty much unavoidable.. But that’s pretty bad. Do armor sets not adjust to scaling? Perhaps that’s why we can’t do manual scale settings?

Awwww mods didn’t like my sarcasm apparently and deleted my post :’(

I would imagine, however, that items do auto-scale to fit the body of the character. It just must not be scaling enough for that body type for whatever reason.

If they hadn’t made all the chicks barbie dolls maybe we wouldn’t have this issue >.>

Like mantis said, I don’t mind a little clipping. But I see it a lot in this game. Example, my guys Draconic helmet has the cloth back sticking out going through the shield on my back. Looks terrible.

I’ve noticed a shader error in the midriff area, probably due to overlapping meshes, but never a gap. Make sure vsync and texture filtering are on before you report it; this is something that may be different from system to system.

It’s issues like these why I always pick the standard body look (i.e. option 1).

The country outfit combined with the guild light armor had the same problem though.

I’ve been playing some and I’ve found out that certain combo of the Winged Armor set causes the visible seams and some don’t.
It comes down to 3 pieces. The Chest, Gloves and Legs
Chest Only = No Seam
Legs Only = No Seam
Gloves Only = No Seam
Chest and Legs = No Seam
Chest and Gloves = No Seam
Gloves and Legs = Seam
Chest Gloves and Legs = Seam
Helm Shoulders and Boots do not affect the seam at all, I’ve tried all combos with the armor and this is what I found out.
So far I’ve only tested the Winged Armor set for my elementalist. I have not yet tried other armor combos with the Winged set as of this post.

I have the exact same issues as the OP. I had already bought the chest and just now bought the legs from the Assassins Tier 3 gear from the Human Cultural Armor vendor and now have this same slit in the belly of my characters model, especially when she leans back to stretch.

Very frustrating to see after spending a lot of time to make the 45g to get this armor skin

I am noticing this as well and its pretty creepy to see a seam appearing at the mid section of your character. I really hope Anet will fix this graphical glitch soon
