Variable texture items change textures

Post by wschutter »

So we've noticed since the last patch that variable texture items are randomly changing textures. Our Rhelm Monument went from marble white to gensis grey and a study table I built went from planewood to, something else...mayble apple wood.

I'll see if I can collect screenshots.

this has happened to me too, but it seems to be only client sided

The complaint has been posted in the Announcement thread, too, and has to do with the caching if I understand correctly. Objects will frequently revert to the "default" textures instead of the ones they were built with.
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

Does this happen only on objects that you see for the first time in the current session, or does it still happen if you get away from them and "re-see" them?

The two times I saw this I interacted with the items (put something on a study desk, or put a wine bottle on a wine wrack). But when I left and reloaded the area they went back to normal. IDK if this is part of the issues, or something related.

This happens the first time you see those objects in this session.
First time you see them in client session they are default materials.
When you walk away and they disappear, then you walk near them so they appear again. They have materials what they should have.

Can confirm what has been said above.

My study table went from this; on first viewing

Back to this; on re-entering the room

I saw this myself. Unsure if resolved. Will look at it.

Can't reproduce this anymore. Not sure if it has been resolved. Won't pursue unless it happens again.
