Dfraiz Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Hi guys, I recently rolled a dark skinned trooper and I just noticed today that he isn't dark skinned anymore. He is lighter skinned to almost being tan. Is this something to do with me going dark side? Is this just a bug? Any input would be great. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clova Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Maybe a bug. I noticed a black nps ended up being 2 different colors. His head was one, his arms were another. Might have been due to lighting though... Also, if you named him Michael Jackson, maybe thats why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horza Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 It's probably dark side corruption and there's a super easy way to check. Go to your preferences (social I think) and turn off "Show Dark Side Corruption". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valdorion Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 it's you going darkside. As you go farther darkside, your skin becomes paler and paler and your eyes change color Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MatronAdena Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 if hes going dark, then yes part of darkside effect is becoming more pale to ashen depending on the native skin. granted again it's silly it's there on non force users, but lore junk aside thats how the mechanic is.

Phishums Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Definitely a bug. I have one character whose entire face changed; shape, tattoos, everything, and she had different hair. Another toon just got new scars and lost her perma-headgear. Other people have had issues too, just submit an in-game ticket. Mine haven't been responded to (12 days now, and this is my third go-round, so good luck) but that's the only way to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dieuos Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Darkside corruption pales your skin, and once you hit rank 4, you're more white than whatever color you were before. My Sith Pureblood was a deep red, but is now more of a pink fleshy color Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeeTone Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) I've noticed on both my JK and Consular that their skin tones are lighter in game (in all areas and maps) than they were in the character creation screen. Also, in preferences, you can set it so that your character's appearance doesn't change with their dark-side allignment.

Cormey Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Black man goes darkside, turns white. Michael Jackson jokes would just be too easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dfraiz Posted February 2, 2012 Author Share Posted February 2, 2012 Yeah it was my darkside. That is quite bizarre. I understand the eye color and the veins but why would they make it so I basically changed races. I enjoy being a dark skinned man. I guess I will just have to run around with the corruption not being shown. Thank you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phishums Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 You are wrong. Do not listen to this man. He is wrong. I'm wrong about all the physical changes to my characters? Hacking into other peoples' accounts is wrong, you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atleast you're not a sith pureblood, they turn pink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docsis Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 same thing here, except worse. My toon was completely different.. alot skinnier, taller and had completely different armor on. Heck, he even had different skills and talents. He was also a different race and class, and changed from a maurader to a bounty hunter. ........ oh, never mind..... I logged on with my alt. my bad.
