Guild Wars 2

I got stuck in a Bone Wall yesterday during the fight with Tequatl the Sunless in Sparkfly Fen. I have no screenshot of it but it happened when the wall was summoned and I wasn’t doing anything other than casting spells on Tequatl.

Hopefully this picture shows up well enough but as you can see with the armor set I have equipped makes me have two different skin colors. It’s quite noticeable on the neck to see the two differences. The chest and arms are also a different color as well and I’m guessing its not suppose to be this way since no other armor set I’ve seen does this to my character.

Human, Female, Engineer, got the gear from the TP.

Ok I will start with my brand new armor:

Topic I created just today

- Screenshot is in the topic above. Screenshot in Hero Panel makes no difference same result, however I attached it.
- Human, Male, Necromancer
- Light Mortal Leggings of Grenth && Light Mortal Shoes of Grenth
- Keeper Jonez Deadrun [Karma-Merchant] : Cathedral of Silence : Cursed Shore

Hope you can do something, because I’m pretty sad about this…

My male Charr thief’s pistol and dagger, when “holstered”, almost always clip through most of his leather coats that are on the longer side… Does this count? I can’t get a screenshot right now since I’m still at work, but it happens pretty consistently with a lot of different weapons and armor…

Female Asura Engineer. Currently wearing Rampager’s Rascal Mask. However, every ‘goggle’ type of helm I equip the strap goes under the face.

On my (human) engineer, pants clip through all long coats as it sways back and forth. Clipping occurs posteriorly and anteriorly around the hips, thighs and bum.

Facial hair clips through all masks (especially the large beard).

Long hair clips through tall leather collar shoulder pads.

Yes, this is exactly one of the bugs we’re looking for. For this we’d need the armor names as well as the weapon names.

Now I’m a little confused, because pretty much every warhorn clips with human light armor coats and I’m sure you know it.
As example again like above Human, Male, Necromancer with Light Mortal Leggings of Grenth from left to right “Pearl Siren” HoM-Reward “Mountaincall-Warhorn” and best example I came across so far “Orrion Warhorn”. So I don’t see how you want to fix this, but since you are asking for ;-)

Lauren Hotson.5068:

Oh dear, I’m sorry. I should have better clarified. When it comes to weapons clipping through coats or other pieces of armor, it’s actually the armor itself that’s causing the issue. I suppose having you list the weapons was for naught. Basically all I need is which specific armor is having the issue. I’ve taken note of the armor you’ve listed and the issue will be addressed.

Sorry about that!

Well I’m looking forward to it – I really hate clipping ;-)

I am glad I found a thread like this.

There is major visual issue involving hair clipping with the Sylvari.

In this case I will show the issue as related to Bows with a longer female Sylvari hair style. As you can see almost any short bow clips through the hair, and in some cases (Such as the Living Short Bow) It even sticks out of the top of the head.

Looking at other Sylvari NPCs it is evident that it happens with many other hairstyles and weapons as well.

Also noted is that when running the weapon seems abnormally big, and displaced to the side. You can see this in the upper left corner of the example.

I can provide more examples if needed, but it really happens with almost all models.

In general I have found that most weapons (especially shields) seem Way to big (look at a human female with the starting shield), and because of this easily clip through many different parts of the character model and / or armor models. While also creating a weird disproportional look.

I hope these issues are resolved soon, as I can not even think about playing my Sylvari ranger knowing that this issue could remain, and always be forced into the one or two bow models that do not show this issue in the extremes I have seen so far.

Edit: In this particular case, the armor is the medium heritage gear. However, that was not the main point in this post, so I had forgot to mention it.

Liliana Moore.4237:

I have a similar bug with character portraits at selection screen that are rendered wrongly.
In my case some of the textures are not being displayed at all.
Sometimes on random 2 or 3 portraits only eyes and torso are being displayed – no face, – no hair.

I do not have any other graphical issue with the game.
This issue with the portraits started after I bough additional character slots.

Edit: I do not have any better image to show this but will update when this happen again.

Maybe random maybe (bad)luck but I have the feeling that after todays update this issue is more noticeable.

I got stuck inside a keep gate today in WvW. How to reproduce:

Get knocked out where a gate normally is, after said gate has been broken.
When the gate is rebuilt, and another players revives the knocked out player, the revived player will be inside the gate and not able to get out.

on Norn females the medium Whispers Coat and Heritage Boots detach the head from the neck behind the ear while standing still but while fighting or dancing its nearly a floating head! i verified by removing ALL equipment, even jewelry and weapons and narrowed it down to those two. I has a friends try them on at least other norns, male is unaffected but this was duplicated on the other female.

also: I dont have a screen shot but the female(and human) hairstyle with the cornrows leading to long flowing hair cuts into the shoulders quite a bit.

Discoloration bug on coat and missing straps on coat.

thank you Lauren, please get the Norn cornrow hair added to the list, I know I personally didn’t mention it. Its such a cool hair style, especially with the same tattooing that Eir has as the tats are shown on the head.

Arah female heavy dungeon armor.

The mountains inside the isle where is the location of bauxite alchemical, float over the water.

Attachment 1:
I ran into an issue with Rampager’s Winged Pants of the Lich cause a line to cut across my belly if I change the top the issue remains when I change the pants but keep the top the same it goes away.
Armor:
Strong Masque
Strong Conjurer Mantle of Infiltration
Strong Chestpiece of Strength
Mighty Embroidered Wristguards of the Dolyak
Rampager’s Winged Pants of the Lich
Beserker’s Cabalist Boots of Flame Legion

Attachment 2:
Sorry I didnt hover my mouse over the screen shot but this was taken at the Flame Temple Tombs vista in Diessa Plateau

I sended a screenshot with the actual situation in the game bug report… it helps?

I tried to enter again inside the isle, but dunno remember how i made it :P

The mountains that have the problem were the ones that are SE from the event.

Basically when you float you will see like (in scale) 50cms of nothing between the mountains and the sea..

Also… another thing of this island… the asura gate power (west of the event of my last screenshot) looks like pass the floor… if you scuba below the gate (second screenshot) and you touch the wall that is above my character you will be transported to the south part of this island.

check my ingame bug reports, i have sended a lot of data like this guys.

Male Asura (and this will most likely also affect female asura as well):

For Pistols : Most of them clip into any leather coat when stored. Too long of a list to name them all, but few examples: Emblazoned Leather Coat, Rascal Coats, Prowler Coat + Carrion Destroyer Pistol, Whisperer’s Secret Pistol, etc.

For Rifles: Any XXL rifle clips into ground, regardless of stored or active. Examples are: Charrzooka, Spectral Wave Modulator, Azure Railgun (this might also include the legendary Rifle The Predator.)

Both of those problem seems rather hard to fix to me:
- Rifles would turn into miniature models for Asura only. (They do not clip on other races because of their body size)
- Pistols can’t be rescaled, nor can they be realligned without making them float into the air.

Hawkthalas: omg, dude, this is not bug. you are just too lazy… the enter to inside the isle is on east side and underwater where are some asura golem guards

for sure …. https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Collection-of-graphics-glitches/first#post95991 there is everything what i want to report as visual issues

Can you get the name of the keep and a screenshot of which gate? Thanks!

It was cragtop keep I think, or the equivalent keep just east of the garrison keep.

Hi Melanis…

Dont understand what you mean with “this is not a bug”… i wasnt saying that the bug was that i dont found the entrance again.

A broken texture, floating 1cm above the sea with not collision function… is a bug and a wall that have no signs of ‘touch this and see the fireworks’ but when i collide teleport me to the south of the island (and when i return to check it looks like is the floor of the asura gate) sounds like a bug to me.

Here are two clipping issues that have bothered me for a bit:

Photo 1 – Certain light armor hats/headbands seem to sink very far into a characters forehead. I do generally play with helm items hidden so this one I dont have any other items to show it with.

Photos 2 & 3 are both taking with a 2 hand staff equipped, and while it’s the same staff in both photos, I’ve had every staff that I equip do this clipping into the droopy ears. I actually have kept this style (via transmutation stones) of a staff because it is the least offender with these ears. Any staff slightly larger, or longer, will clip through the ears completely.

As kaesebrezen mentioned, Asura with pistols is a trainwreck of armor/weapon clipping. The first issue is that the pistols scale down so much for the Asura that it’s really hard to appreciate any nice skin on them, compared to something like a greatsword on a Norn
Every single pistol I’ve equipped, both main and offhand has had clipping issues with every coat I’ve put on, but my current set up totally hides the pistol on the left hip, the right is about 50% hidden when not drawn. You can see (or not, as the case may be) my coat covering the pistol on my hip. I haven’t gotten my conceal/carry permit yet so please fix when you can If you can make the weapons not scale down so much in the first place that’d be great, so we could appreciate them a little more.

Deleting my post on this and posting it here since this is an art glitches collections thread.

So, my charr have weird spots on their tails. Both of them have this, but one of them also has an odd nose seam going on, so I went ahead and displayed it on her. Is this supposed to be happening? I’ve seen the tail spot since beta, on a different video card back then. The nose seam is new, however.

I’ll have some clothing issues to add tomarrow but I don’t have a screenshot handy atm.

The Shaman Reward Breastplate (CoF exotic medium chest armor) makes all shoulders invisible (male norn, other races unknown).

Chest equipped, shoulders missing:

Back to old chest, shoulders show up again:
http://i.imgur.com/tQqKM.jpg

P.S. 90% of medium chest armors cause clipping issues with one-hand and off-hand weapons. I can compile a list if it would help.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but i ran into these texture issues on the world map.

As you can see the water surrounding Claw Island doesnt match up with the water of Bloodtide Coast. Also the boats on the right get cut off by the ‘zone transition line’.

When you zoom in the water is ok but there is a distinct line running between the zones. Also the boats are still cut in half. (Then again, it are undead ships so anything can happen). This line is also there between the water parts of Lion’s Arch and bloodtide coast. (Which cant be seen on my screenshot.)

Not sure if this has anything to do with it but i did the battle of claw island mission in my personal storyline. (Havent done the ones after it)

Animation bug for the asura engineer.

I did this video on day 1 of the games release, this video shows an Asura engineer animation bug. It happens on any/all pistol/pistol – pistol/sheild combination and only happens on the Asura race and it happens in any/every place in the world.

It seems that perhaps some part of the animation is missing or being skipped and as such the animation isn’t smooth at all. It happens every time you stop running and can be repeated easily – in the video i did short runs to show it over and over BUT it will do the same after any lengh of running.

As stated it happens on any/all pistols and sheilds and any/every place in he world, so it isn’t weapon/place specific and appears to be animation related.

I’m posting sepetate posts for each bug video for ease of viewing.

Animation bug for the asura elemental.
—-
Another weird bug for the asura (not sure if this one is on other races), the conjured weapon “Frost Bow” has an attack called “Ice Storm”, however during the attack the animation is wrong. You can clearly see the arrows are ment to fire upwards (like other ranger/warrior long bow attacks that do a similar thing) but the arrows actully fire to the right instead.

Again, this happens in any/every place in the world regardless of gear etc and is specific to the Frost bow/Ice Storm skill.

A new bug after the recent 14th Sept patch.

Animation bug for the asura elemental.

In the patch a fix was applied to the “Signet of Air” skill, however the fix seems to have broken art/animation parts of the skill, this happens on the asura and i’m unsure if it happens on other races.

As you can see in the video, every signet is supposed to have a little symbol appear above your head and is also ment to have a sort of cast animation (on asura it’s a twisting handwave), the patch broke this for the Signet of Air skill and it no longer has a symbol above your head or any cast animation.

Only tested on Asura, again happens in any/every place in the world and is specific to the Signet of Air skill.

The other day I updated my graphics drivers as suggested for the NVidia GTX 560ti, first to the beta drivers, then to the full actual release drivers which just came out from NVidia. And ever since Rata Sum has been Doing the following: (Note, I’ve re-installed the drivers already twice.)

Logged in to find that it’s actually the entire world doing this.

Clipping issues with Scepter/Focus, Dagger/Dagger, Scepter/Dagger with the Twlight Arbor light armor dungeon set.

My ears, what a fascinating thread. I (Asura/Female/Genius/Golemancer/Necromancer with beautiful, big ears which don’t like things sticking through them) have been windowshopping in Lion’s Arch to find a nice new dress, and really liked the Nightmare set from Twilight Arbor. I’m always running around without a headpiece that covers my ears, because i want to hear my enemys (and i really like how you included the ears in every character animation of the Asura). Now the issue is to find a Shoulder Armour that does not stick into my ears.
Let’s see (Attachment 1):
Flame Legion Mantle – Big burning balls of fire burning in my ears. Arrrgh, fire, fire, fire.
Furnace Reward Pauldrons – A rocket sticking in my ear
Nightmare Mantle – Collar sticking through my ears & hair.
Corrupted Orrian Mantle – Pointy wings sticking through my ear.

And don’t call this an Asura-Ear problem. Our ears are perfect, it’s that human-fit armour.

So i guess i have to go without (visible) Shoulder Armor. With less protection, i have to hit everybody who tries to touch me with my staff (in this case Carrion Steam Staff, Attachment 2). Guess what? It’s sticking through my ear!

Ok, in a completely unrelated matter that has nothing to do with my ears, i’m currently wearing [Arcolyte Shoulders][Shaman’s Cabalist Coat][Rampager’s Cabalist Gloves][Ravaging Cabalist Legs of Dwayna] and [Carrion Conjourer Shoes of the Citadel], and when i’m standing on a steep slope with my right leg on the higher ground, my right leg is sticking through the coat (Attachment 3).

An issue I’ve seen brought up in Asura clipping is also with our toes… but either our tailors forgot to cover them, or they want them sticking out of shoes… personally I would not want to wear shoes at all. I think of my Asura as sort of a hobbit… his feet should always be shown because I’m sure it’s a nightmare when he walks into Nike otherwise.

Perhaps both Asura and Charr would benefit from a hide armor checkbox for the feet equipment, as it’s implemented already on Head/Shoulder items.

I don’t know whether this is by design of by mistake (and thus a bug) but there are several really cool leather armor sets with a full helmet that are simply ruined by the fact that Asura ears clip through them (and now having found this thread, I apologize for making a dedicated thread for this issue). Not only does this “ruin” the armor set, there’s the fact that most light and heavy sets with full heavy sets don’t have this problem, which leaves me wondering whether this may be “fixed” in future patches, because it would seriously affect my aesthetic armor choices and perhaps even race choice. I’d hate to reroll my Asura engineer just because I can’t find a helmet that “fits” though.

Notice on the attached picture that there’s a red tidbit sticking outta the armor that doesn’t change colors with dyes here?

I’m hoping this is the kind of thing you’re looking for, if not my apologies.

My male Sylvari has an issue with the glow map banding on the left leg when wearing any leggings that expose the legs. It’s fairly explanatory in the included screenshots. Since glow seems to be a part of the body type, I checked the character creator and I’m fairly sure I originally selected the body type in the second row, fourth column. I’ve noticed this effect with all leggings that show skin, it’s probably always like this – just not visible if I’m wearing pants (which I try never to do). I /bugged it in-game, but I’m hoping better screenshots will help explain the issue.

Yaotl is displeased!

I am not sure if this has been said or not but the tattoo set for Norn in the below pictures look very low res or crayoned in on the arms and face. The back is beutiful and very sharp but those arms.. and the face too.

hmm its not letting me add but here is another one
