WTH did you do to gnome walk/run animation?

I don’t have any capture software that can record video (can someone point me in the direction of some free software?) so I can’t show it here and static images just can’t show it. But there’s something seriously wrong with the gnomish run animation. Seems to be something that happened within the last month or 2? Basically the run/walk forward of the legs has been replaced with the reversing/walking back animation. As a result, it looks like they’re running backwards when they run forwards!

Am I the only one seeing this horrific change?

I was just on my Gnome a couple days ago and didn’t notice anything like this. Ran with a Gnome in raid tonight and didn’t see anything weird.

Could it be a bug? Did you try exiting, deleting the cache folder and seeing if it’s still happening?

Will that mess with my addons if I delete that?

Nope! All of your addon settings are saved in the Account folder, which is in the WTF folder.

The cache folder should really be deleted like once a month. That thing bugs up a lot of stuff if it stays there for too long.

Well I deleted the cache folder but the issue is still happening. I’ve also confirmed through the use of a toy that it is affecting the character, not the race. I.e. the issue appears on any race I change into. It’s much more pronounced on larger races. I wish I could show you a video of it!
