Eis_Katze Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 You want the easiest fix that applies to both parties? Make a prime details subset that isn't the exact prime mesh, but allows tennogen skins to still utilize prime detailing. Essentially, make a few golden light detailing that gets turned on to override the body mesh that will work with the tennogen skin. And if you turn the prime details off, then you get basic tennogen. This way we get the prime mesh in all it's glory, the simplified prime tennogen mesh, and basic tennogen on the default unprimed mesh. If you take away prime details for tennogen, your asking for a lot of negative feedback for the foreseeable future, as it's a huge aspect of customization that people love.

Will the mesh Mesa Prime herself use, as in, with no skins at all, have any changes? Or are you adding a third, unique model to keep TennoGen compatibility on top of the other 2 (default + Prime)? EDIT: Nevermind, looks like it was option 2 upon rereading. Whoever came up with this deserves a good X-mas gift.

It sounds like when toggled on, what they did was took the Prime details and placed them on her reg model/tennogen. So when toggled you see prime details appear on her base/tennogen.

This new model is only used when the "show prime details" toggle is turned on. It doesn't affect anything else. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WingedCrusade Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) 14 hours ago, Rannulf said: The precedent for primes thus far has been set, and that precedent is "All Primes are able to use their prime details on their tennogen skins, or they can turn them off." You see, that last part is important here, for you specifically, because YOU can turn them off if you don't like them. But screw the people who do want them, right? Screw the people who took money out of their wallet to support an DE, and an artist they clearly liked the work of, right? Mind-boggling. For every primed warframe to be able to use their primed details with their tennogen except Mesa Prime is a slap in the face not only to everyone who loves Mesa, but to everyone who loves Mesa and were looking forward to using their Tennogen skins on Mesa Prime with ALL of the bells and whistles that came with every other Primed Warframe. For you to say that you're okay with this shows a serious lack of foresight on your part, especially since DE already had an option for people like who you "don't want primed details on their tennogen" with the inclusion of the toggle feature. Encouraging DE to take options away from other people is not just mind-boggling, but it's actively counterproductive to your own interests. DE isn't going to get praise and support by undermining the standards they've already set for themselves, and they're certainly not going to encourage the community to buy primed access or tennogen if they're not willing to provide the proper support for either. Sure you could keep the toggle then but the skins look like garbage with the meshes, so. I also don’t expect DE to make bland prime models with only slight metal bits added in, as I like the more artistic direction they’re taking with Primes in making them stand out. Oh and guess what, I’ll still buy both PA and Tennogen, because I like both and like to support both. :I I’m actually worried from the sound of things that they may change Mesa Prime’s model entirely to work with Tennogen skins, and I think that’s a terrible idea since Mesa Prime looks amazing as is.

Mesa Prime keeps her own, unique, mesh for Mesa Prime 🙂 To make it clearer: Meshes Mesa will have: Base -> Base frame, TennoGen without details (as is) Deluxe -> Deluxe skin (untouched) Prime -> Mesa Prime (as is, untouched) Base+Prime -> Mesa Prime + TennoGen Skin + Prime toggle (new) Edited December 19, 2018 by NightmareT12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)phelan_1988 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Thank you, DE. I was worried about this one. I was really looking forward to my Prime Marlet - I don't mind having to wait a while for the fix, but the term "for the time being" is sort of cursed, as far as games are concerned. Glad to hear there's a plan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For future reference, being clear about working on fixing a problem, or wanting to "investigate alternative fixes" to the problem will put your user base more at ease than only acknowledging that there is a problem. We do appreciate the work the team does, we just like to be reassured that the problems we have are being taken care of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(XBOX)badboy6295 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 All I'm saying is. The grace skin looked fine. In fact it looked great. With her alt helm or the grax helm it Made her look like she fit right in with the Solaris. Same colors and the leather texture turned to that robbed felt texture looked like a warm winter coat. It was the best I'd ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)AdmireMyHate Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I refuse to look basic, and I refuse to use the mesa prime default skin...not that it bad.

Hypodermique Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 It's nice to see her tennogen model is now fixed. Maybe now is time to focus on her poor quality textures, no? The newest prime frame being this pixelated doesn't sound right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
