On the new male worgen, I’m noticing that the textures on leg armors are stretched around the waist area, particularly on the front and back of the inner-leg area… It’s pretty bad.
It looks like a contour shadow on the butt and crotch end up being stretched all the way down the upper thigh… Leg-texture armors end up looking like the character is wearing diaper.
Also, the waist area and belt is far too high… it looks pretty hilarious to have the belt pulled 4 inches above the navel.
Is this just my game, or is it this way for others, too?
Yep, I’ve noticed it too. Given how male night elves have looked terrible for millenia it’s something that I wish they would fix quickly, but I don’t think they ever will.
Might be just you, my armor textures haven’t changed
It affects some armors and not others… It’s worse on some things, unchanged on others.
I see this:
The textures are stretched on the front and back. Look at the pixelation that exists now:

It seems like the previous shadow contours have been re-arranged, but now with the setup, cause a number of armors to have an ‘underwear’ or ‘diaper’ look to them:

As another example, the light-brown band around the waist used to be about the same height all the way around on this leg armor:

It looks like this is partially caused by actual model problems… the waistline is too high and the way the glutes are designed is slightly misplaced.

Two steps forward, one step back… I think the models look better overall, but it would be nice for them to be a complete improvement over the old.
There are also a number of weird animations… the whole torso area still has the weird locked-in-place look to it, where the whole torso never turns or bends.

There is probably some real problems your noticing here like that belt looks bad and the pixels but those white pants look like like that on many models I’ve noticed. Also the diaper thing unfortunately too lol
