Tiny Little Questions

Recommended Posts

Why have my gilded bloodscale dragons turned into a less detailed version of themselves? They don't look finished.

Oh, obviously the sprites have been updated. The wings look more detailed now (fold-y instead of scaly), and the gilded "beard" is much more pronounced. wub.gif

 

I wonder what else but them (and frills and old pinks / arias) got an update...

This is an update?

They look cell shaded. The wings don't even look finished, look at the females closest wing so much is just a solid colour with no shading. In between my deep seas and greys they stick out like a sore thumb.

Oh no, that's sad. sad.gif They've lost their dusted look. There are some nice bits about the new sprite, such as that you can make out more detail on the wing shape, mind... but I have to admit I'm not excited about this change.

 

Thanks for sharing screenshots, Tango.

PM a mod or TJ directly. I'd suggest a mod, though, so they can look into it first.

How long does a birthday release usually last? I want to know if I'l get a chance to catch more of these babies!

This has probably been asked elsewhere, and I'm sure it's a stupid question, but will the old/new pinks (Arias) have the Influence BSA like the other pinks?

@andromedae: The release is permanent, so you can take your time catching everything. However, some breeds seem to be pretty rare at the moment.

@yunako: No idea - but probably not, considering they're their own breed now and never had the BSA to begin with. However, someone who actually owns one of the old pinks - which have also been renamed to "Aria dragons" - should be able to find out.

Checking one of my old Arias: They don't currently, for what it's worth.

Does anyone know which biome the Arias & Frills drop in? *is sooo happy to have a chance at getting a CB one*

I like the head and hand updates, but I agree it feels like something was lost with the shading. They had this really cool texture before that just isn't there now.

People, I can't send mails to anyone on here. When I try it says that I sent one 15 minutes ago, but I know that I never did. What's wrong? sad.gifsad.gifsad.gif

Maybe this is the right place for my question...

I do not have old Frills or Bright Pinks so I do not know how to check this. Did the sprites of those change?

Yes, both sprites changed.

New Bright Pink female adult (note that these can be male now - nobody's seen that sprite yet, obviously)

New Bright Pink frozen hatchie

New Frill male adult

New Frill female adult

I was observing zombies, and noticed a few non-standard tombstones.

 

with snow on top

without moss

 

What's up with that?

 

Note @ mods: Those dragons are not mine, but they're posted in the Encyclopedia so I assume the owners are okay with people checking them out. Don't hesitate to remove the links if I'm mistaken though!

caveborn zombies got different tomstones based on biome in Nov 2014. http://dragcave.wikia.com/wiki/Undead_Dragon

 

You have an Alpine and a Volcano there.

I do not personally have any Desert, but they have yellow sand.

Is something up with my computer or are all links posted to the forum now leading to blank pages? including the ones I posted above?

 

Well, whatever it was it's not doing it anymore. so Thanks!

This is not a question. Sprite crit is not a question.

 

If you want to suggest further edits to a sprite, you can politely PM the artist.

Discussion on the sprite update can be continued in the news thread. Further off-topic discussion in Help will get deleted.

Where can I report a (maybe) bug?

Either PM a mod or TJ or create a help thread about it. If it's something that other users are likely to notice/directly affects your cave/forum experience, I prefer a help thread so we can easily share updates with other users who are worried about it. But you can also PM first to check.

Wait 20 minutes, then try sending your mail. If it still doesn't work, clear your (dragcave) cookies and try again.
