Invisible box around character covering up floating character names...

Post#1 » Fri Jun 28, 2019 6:33 am

When my runepriest (or any character for that matter) uses an ability that creates a visual effect, such as glowing hands, it seems to put a transparent box around him, which completely blocks out the floating names above players and NPCs heads.

Ive tried to position it (the transparent box) partially over the name so you can see it half covered, and the corner of the box itself as it blocks out a section of the text.

Any idea why this is happening?

eheh. It happens because of the effect on your hands. You can experience the same thing in water.

Tehcnically, the game client very poorly manages transparency overlay. Have made some test to find a solution, and the only viable would be to modify completely the effect to remove some graphical part of it.

Got a fixed version of it somewhere, but effect is slightly different:
