Explain what would be the problem with that?
The player would already have either farmed or bought the Forma. They already levelled the warframe up to 30.
Why shouldn't they be able to pay whatever cost and add the Forma to the Warframe or Weapon? Even if the weapon or frame reset ONCE, rather than be limited to adding one forma at a time requiring multiple resets?
Just because I understand a system, it does not mean I agree with every aspect of that system.
From DE's point of view, because Forma is easy to get, they added several time and effort gates to Progression via Polarity.
Don't ask me to justify this. It's just how they made it. lol -
Huh... been playing this game for 6 years and never realized I was hurting myself...
But seriously.
The Foma mechanic is there to prevent players from Ranking an item to 30 and then just applying 8 forma to it all at once.
There "might" be special forma released later that can Polarize a slot without resetting rank.
But those will be much MUCH harder to come by than the Forma we have now.
Which are, to be frank, ridiculously easy to get. -
So I noticed that the collars line up properly on the Articula.

Not that can be possible regarding animation wise from what I know neither. I did however slip the chance there's a way to better apply the TennoGen texture to the Prime model so it's less severe.
In any event, the point presents itself that this is the kind of issue that warrants fixing.
Seeing as it has to do with --
- A: a primary part of the game.
(The customization of the player's avatar in a 3rd person game is inarguably paramount to the experience.), and
- B: premium content as it pertains to the value proposition of Tennogen purchases.
(The "it's a free game" excuse cannot be used here, not that it should ever be used, really) -

As far as I am aware that isn't something that can be fixed due the way the Prime parts are tied to the mesh. Remember all TennoGen skins were designed to play around the base model, so for this kind of reasons DE added the toggle to Prime: It's not guaranateed to work 100%, but if you don't mind it and want the gold you can use said parts.
That's about what I figured, and I can live with the misalignment just fine.
I was really just raising my hand on the 'off chance' this might be addressable.Something to the effect of suppressing a sub-animation rig when certain skins are applied.
Since there have been a number of skin specific fixes in the past that approach this order. -
[Sorry, this might be more of a bug? Move if necessary.]
And speaking of Limbo. When you use "Prime Parts" with the Graxx Tennogen skin, his Prime Collar misaligns with the Graxx Collar as his head turns.Spoiler
This is not an issue when suppressing "Prime Parts".
Spoiler
The non-prime jacket and collar stay where they're supposed to.
EDIT: So I noticed that the collars line up properly on the Articula.

Not a complete rework of the reticles, but rather a small something on either side that indicates when you are in the Rift plane.
It's really difficult to tell when you are in the rift plane in some missions and lighting conditions.
And especially with my colorblindness.
And no, you don't always have the opportunity to stop whatever you're doing and look for those wispy lights like what you can see on my shoulder below.
As they tend to blend in with the 1,000,000,000s of other visual effects and clues bombarding your eyes.So something like this might help (not just me, but anyone that suddenly finds themselves in the rift, or plays limbo and needs visual aid)...
But obviously... OBVIOUSLY, something that looks better.
As always, have fun out there, be kind to each other, but equally mean to those that oppose the Tenno!

Key binds NEED to be cleaned up.
We now have a bind for "Switch Weapon" and "Switch Gun".
Both of which have identical function.
I suggest you remove "Switch Weapon" and replace it with "Switch to Primary" and "Switch to Secondary" while keeping "Switch Gun" for players that wish to use one key to do both.I used to use Mouse-Wheel Down to wield Melee and Mouse-Wheel Up to switch Guns.
What I would like to do now is use MWU for Primary Weapon, and MWD for Secondary Weapon.
Right now both my Mouse-Wheel directions just switch between primary and secondary and the actually switching mechanism in game is so flakey, sometimes it switches right past the gun I want to use now back to the one I was just using. WHAT HAPPENED?Along with all that it totally blows my mind you can't manually guard anymore!
There was no reason to remove that and every reason to keep it!
If you want to switch back to your guns without shooting ... read above. There's literally still TWO binds that already do that!
Seriously, please let us set a dedicated Block key.
And allow us to map that to the same key as Aim, so that you can Aim when welding guns but Block if wielding melee with the same key.As always, have fun out there, be kind to each other, but equally mean to those that oppose the Tenno!

Considering the number of Rankable equipment players can bring into missions these days...
The Item Rewards, Mod Rewards and Mission Statistics boxes are getting squished farther into oblivion.I assume the Mission Progress screen will be seeing a refresh to make it compliant with the new UI "flavors".
But in the meantime, it shouldn't be too hard to rewrite the LUA controlling the screen layout to make it more readily readable.At least, show the more pertinent info before scrolling is necessary.
Something like this...
Please let me know what you all think.

Hey any advice on get this one looking really good ? atm it'S very shiny 😕
- snip -
Right now the light areas around the person is ranging between about rgb(204,197,189) and rgb(235,225,218).
Considering that this makes up the majority of the image, it's gonna produce a lot of flare.
If you play around with Levels and/or Curves a bit, you may be able to dim it and preserve detail...
After this Levels edit, the clouds/lightning are about rgb(182,181,174) and rgb(198,191,184).
Then after this Curves edit, the clouds/lightning are about rgb(150,150,145) and rgb(165,165,163).
It'll still be "Shiny", but considerably less so.
Doing this with the source will produce better results in terms of preserving detail than what I could do with the 128px Emblem version, so I'll leave that to you.
Good luck and good hunting, Tenno!-

Any advice on getting this to play nice? as it has a lot of white/transparent areas.I actually don't see anything that's wrong with it considering that the style is a single tone without (much) partial transparency (just along the edge between the red and the transparant).
Not much risk of the "partial transparency glitch-flaring thingy" happening here.
At least not in a volume that would hide the design.That said, I'd need to load the source file into an editor to see exactly what's going on with alpha channel, but again, it looks fine.
If you've already submitted it and are having flaring issues, what I would do is:
* If you're using an alpha channel to create the transparency, make sure the color of the pixels masked out by an alpha channel are all the same tone.
* If you're using empty pixels on the emblem's layer to create the transparency, make sure the transparent region outside the anti-aliasing of the emblem's edge is 100% cleared/deleted.
What I've seen (and experienced first hand) is even pixels with as little as 1% opacity will still render a full volume flare if there are enough of them in a cluster.
The partial transparency of an anti-aliased border, however, will not produce a significant flare if it's kept to within 2px wide, 3px on a diagonal.
And you want to keep the border as close to what you have now to avoid jagged edges.That leaves the only other issue that might pop up, the brightness.
Your red is roughly/near rgb(215,25,32) in most places I checked.
Even though the red value is above 200, I expect the combined rgb brightness to be low enough not to produce an overbright flare.
Perhaps a soft, warm-ish glow.
Remember that if Warframe's renderer does actually flashlight it (which I doubt), you should still be able to Zendesk ticket it for a swap with a dimmer version.So overall, I give this Emblem a thumbs up.
Good luck and good hunting, Tenno!
Edit: I'm not 100% sure on this, but symbols and images from other games 'might' not be allowed. Though that may only pertain to copyrighted media. That may be a question for the Players helping Players section or better research into allowed images (TOS) errata.-

@AlexIlyasov,
Indeed, the downsampling has a crippling effect on your emblem.
It's a shame too, because it's a good emblem, with what looks like a lot of thought and care put into.What I would suggest (and this is from a design point of view) is dropping the out ring of Corpus script and re-aligning the Lotus and Clan Name at 0-degrees.
This would allow for more detail to be preserved.
Example:
Then, for any case where you can use a full resolution version, such as a clan website or signature, the full version can be use. -
Okay so per request I went back with a friend who had Peculiar Growth.
It's hard to tell exactly how swol PTO got, but pics are in the OP. -

Alternatively Void Dash straight up and wait, to Transference-Static your way back to the Warframe.
Suicide: It gets the job done!
Yeah, why have lore-friendly tools in your kit that add to the overall immersion and 'cool factor', when you can metagame! lol
But seriously. The tactical expedience a hold/tap option affords really is a QoL improvement that can't be substituted with voluntary fall damage.
And that's especially true if you're in a room with low ceilings. So, yeah. OP gets my +1. -
Just further expanding on color deficient vision accessibility.
I've been reviewing the footage and I can only see the "blob" you're supposed to shoot at in less than half of the examples shown in the stream.
I understand this is all WIP, so please allow me to suggest an alternative to the blob,
(click image for an un-squished view)
I'm just calling it a "Targeting Thingy" for lack of better name.
But as you can see in the mockup, It's a tri-forked reticle that spins.
The fact that it is a high-contrast element that is moving in a predictable pattern helps color deficient visioned players see what it's actually trying to show.
Again, this is just a suggestion, and really anything that gives this kind of visual cuing would suffice.
It's just something I whipped up for example sake.

Mining isn't color-based, actually! You have a target marker to hit that's shown.
It's a white rectangle I didn't even notice was there to begin with and i'm not colorblind, but visibility of the marker aside there IS a clear marker of where to hit and it's not based on color recognition.
Ugh... typical.
That's not even what I was referring to.
I couldn't see where she was supposed to shoot at the resource until she shot at it.
I can see the white rectangle on the wheel.
I can see the current version tracing border around resources.
What I can't see, is a cluster of colored pixels inside a larger cluster of similarly colored (to my vision) pixels.
I had to ask a friend to describe what she was actually targeting to arrive at that description.
You normal color-sighted players that can't SEE what the issues could even be for color-deficient players. lol 😛

Hey hey! After just 2 years of pleading, Focus Buddy
will finally be a thing... kinda.

PS. Please don't make mining Color Vision dependant. I'm quite colorblind and that new mode needs Color Deficient Accessibility.

People want to see the actual damage value and not abbreviations.
What's your point?
I'd like the Option to shorten or move the damage numbers.
In case you're not familiar with the word "Option", here's a handy link.
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/option -
So, this is something that's been bugging me for a while,
and I waited to throw this up here after a major update,
because I wanted this to get buried under a mountain of duplicate posts regarding that update.One of the unavoidable things about Warframe is it's very fast.
And this is a good thing, however, the current damage display, for me at least, tends to get in its own way.
For example, firing a machine gun at a target, and doing multiple 20,000+ damage hits to it, can cloud the screen and affect aim or situational awareness.
Insert your own favorite method for creating the "Cloud of Damage" effect here.But at the same time, you NEED these numbers to gage the combat state.
I'd like an option to either shorten the display time of damage numbers, truncate them or cause them to quickly fly farther to the side of the target.
Perhaps even all three as their own separate options?For example, with Truncating (ON) the damage numbers would result in the following:
* Damage 0 to 9999 would remain unchanged.
* Damage 10000 to 999999 would be truncated to 10k to 999k.
* Damage 1000000 to 9999999 would be truncated to 1.0m to 9.9m and shown in bolder text.
* Damage 10000000 to 999999999 would be truncated to 10m to 999m and shown in bolder text.
* Damage 1000000000 and above would be truncated to DEATHSHOT and shown in bolder text.As always, have fun out there, be kind to each other, but equally mean to those that oppose the Tenno!

My OCD triggers me with Warframe's user interface
in Art, Animation, & UI
Posted
If the trigger causes you to compulsively perform a ritual to avoid having your thoughts filled with paralyzing dread, that's more likely to be OCD.
However, if the trigger distracts you from concentrating/focusing your attention, until the order or pattern you expect is resolved, that's more likely to be OCPD.
Although OCD and OCPD share some related features, they are two different disorders. As such, it is possible for a person to have both disorders. The primary distinction between these two disorders is the presence of obsessions and compulsions, as with OCD; or the absence them, as with OCPD. However, research indicates that most individuals with OCD do not have OCPD.
If you feel you are suffering from either of these; it's important to get checked out by a qualified physician as soon as possible.
Remember, there's no shame in seeing a doctor or therapist. Please take your mental health very seriously.
I wish you well, Tenno. Peace!
