Dark side appearance ruined again... still...

I finally got myself to level a twilek to unlock it for my legacy. Finished. Now to get more dark side because dark eyes look much better than the standard green/blue/purple ones.

 

So I go the orange eyes. Looks nice. Just got the dark side 2 eyes.... aaaaand it ruins the skin color.

 

Seriously, how is that still happening??? Why does this only affect twilek and pureblood sith? Why is it not possible to just get the dark side eyes and not ruin the rest of the appearence like hundreds of NPCs have it??? WHY???

 

And to make things worse, I have to constantly switch back and forth to stay dark 1 for the eye color that doesnt ruin the skin color because of this blasted alignment gain with every action and conversation.

The problem is worse for dark skinned characters than it is for light colored skin types. My rather normal skinned human only looks slightly darker with dark 5. Plus the clown makeup... But my dark skinned chars look terrible because it lights them up. Dark brown skin turns into faint brown and dark red turns into light orange. Its destroying the choice I made when I created the chars.

I think this happens with Togruta too. My Dark Side JC was a Togruta and her skin started to look horrid... actually changed her back to human. It's a shame this happens. These days I just use the Sith eyes I've bought via the CM and use the darker full eye makeups rather than showing DS corruption.

Just got a reply ingame about my ticket:

We wanted to let you know that we identified the problem you ran into as a bug. We'll fix it in a future game update.

How old is this bug again? 2-3 years? How far in the future is this "future game update" ? After some research I found comments here from early 2012 of this bug.

 

Just another middle finger to the community.

Isn't supposed to be like that the corruption ? Your character's face looks all rotten and truly hideous. But I think that's the point of the corruption.

 

Yes it is the corruption that changes them. Always been that way. Red skin tones will look pinkish by DS5

 

I have a red skin Twi'lek that I keep at DS1 just for the eyes. I have another that is DS5 but used a very light colored skin tone to get the all white look.

If it were that easy. Twileks dont have access to the CM eyes.

 

This is true and their make up choices are tangled up with the lekku patterns. I dont' know why they can't separate the sliders, so that we can choose make up separately from the markings.

 

There is a great need for more personalizing options in character creation for all species. Eye colours should just be a rainbow and let people choose whatever they want without ruining their skin with the dark side crap.
