Hey guys,

I was checking out the new helstorm lizard in the crown store, and I noticed it showed my equiped weapon, but sized down...
To cute... try it out ;)

    I wonder if that's a bug. It happened to my character once. I was running round all of Rawl kha with..I don't know how to say this. .but a staff between my legs :p (on the ground in between feet, same as the lizard).

    It's just funny to think what bits of code are combining together to create this bug. So odd.

    I believe it has something to do with the pet's preview being similar to your character camera/placeholder. Not long ago when the update happened where everyone was a shadow loading in first, you could also see their currently equipped weapon below them in this same manner. (can't remember which update this was but it was recent) I have screenshots of people running around as shadows with swords and staffs chasing after them xD

    So yes, I reckon the preview is actually your character standing there but with the Lizard's skin on.

    Oh, so it's only happening in the preview window? That would make sense then.

    On a similar note... I would totally pay to be able to run around the game as a lizard. :smiley:

    I LOVE that part @UrQuan.

    We've discussed before on this forum, the idea of playing as Mobs. I kind of love the idea of being able to make a mob... and play the part of an enemy. I would like the idea of a person playing a mob leveling up and getting more powerful with each kill, but when THEY die, all progress is lost. That mob is dead. There would be some players to reach "boss" status!

    Would be so much fun. :lol:

    There was an adventure for AD&D 2e called Reverse Dungeon where the players played the part of the monsters having their home invaded by adventurers intent on wiping them out... I wasn't too fond of the actual implementation of that one, but I always thought the concept was a ton of fun.

    No, that was part of what I didn't like about the implementation. The other thing that I didn't like about the implementation was that rather than advancing the goblins that you started off playing, you "advanced" by completing one section of the story and then taking control of more powerful monster on the next level of the dungeon that the adventurers were trying to clear out.

    It's just funny to think what bits of code are combining together to create this bug. So odd.

    I believe it has something to do with the pet's preview being similar to your character camera/placeholder. Not long ago when the update happened where everyone was a shadow loading in first, you could also see their currently equipped weapon below them in this same manner. (can't remember which update this was but it was recent) I have screenshots of people running around as shadows with swords and staffs chasing after them xD

    So yes, I reckon the preview is actually your character standing there but with the Lizard's skin on.

    Oh, so it's only happening in the preview window? That would make sense then.

    On a similar note... I would totally pay to be able to run around the game as a lizard. :smiley:

    Yeah it's a shame we can't play as lizards. Oh... Wait... Nvm

    LOL. oh yea.. I mean a LIZARD, not an Argonian.

    Don't get frisky with the lizards, you don't want a swarm of Argonians following around you yelling: "Mommy, mommy, a fly for me mommy!"
    Sometimes, I dream about...cheese...

    It happens because game engine uses your character model to preview pets. What they have forgotten was to disable weapon/shield that was attached to the model, causing it to display with the pet in a weird (and scaled down) manner.

    Yep that's what I said :) Makes me wonder though how easy it is to swap player model to any creature. Like @UrQuan said, the monkey quest was pretty fun, would be nice if there were more quests like that.
