Guild Wars 2

So I’m too sure what to make of, my first character creating a female human thief, in character creation I run across an odd bug with one of the default faces, it looks like the texture on the face and eye lashes are “fighting” each other for lack of a better term, I have a picture attached below to clarify what I mean.

The face is the default one selected when you create a human female thief, it’s the middle of the first 9 faces on that tab. I know it’s subtle but I’m a stickler for detail, so it bothers me.

Is this a known texture bug? Does it appear only in character creation and not in game? Or is it related in anyway to settings, as I have everything related to textures on highest.

Eager for a response and/or a little insight, this is my first character in Guild Wars 2 ever so keep in mind I may not be using terminology correctly, I have also not yet created my character so I have no “in-game” pictures, as I don’t want to go that war if this bug persists.

Are you referring to that particular hairstyle couple with that face? And where the eyelash and hair overlap?

No, I mean the area under her eyes, the hair style doesn’t seem to have anything to do with the bug, the face template itself seems to be the problem.

EDIT: Here’s another attached pick with arrows to show what I mean.

Oh. To me, it just looks like make-up or shadows. Girls often put eye shadow under their lower lashes.

If it bothers you, though, a different choice might be well considered.

Good luck.

Have you tried using the appropriate sliders for the eye settings under Face Details? Making the eyes slightly more open might eliminate that clipping.

I’m well aware of that make up fact, but you are completely missing the thing I am trying to point out.

Under her eyes her eye liner abruptly stops in a very unnatural way. As someone who understands textures I believe it’s the texture of the eyeshadow conflicting with the face texture, the former is suppose to layer over the later, but it’s not and conflicting instead.

That’s the what I am having a problem with, check my second posted image, look closely where the arrows are pointing.

I looked at the sliders, I didn’t see any I thought would help, I’ll try that one and see what comes of it, if there is an eye openness slider, I don’t recall seeing one.

EDIT: I checked, there is no slider controlling eye openness, and all other sliders scale the bug with the eyes as they are changed.

Here’s the thread the Devs check about character art:

I am well aware of that section. I didn’t post there because my character never got created. You are literally of zero help to me.

Have a nice day!

You don’t have to have created a character to bring a ‘bug’ to the Devs attention.

Regardless, as noted above, if you are unhappy with that particular face’s eyes, you can choose a different face, and play…..

….or wait for the ‘bug’ to be fixed (which could be some time).

Just trying to determine what the ‘bug’ was (at first), and then offer suggestions.

Again, good luck.
