Jenea Gallente The Copernicus Institute	Posted - 2011.01.28 15:28:00 - [1] Just for those who care, which probably isn't many, there appears to have been an unannounced change to the camera focus on new portraits that was noticed yesterday. Essentially, max zoom minus one now focuses higher on the head and you don't get to see as much of the neck. If you have a close up, and are showing your neck, you may have a unique portrait. Was this to reduce the down cleavage shots? We may never know...

Also, you can reposition your body anywhere in the frame by clicking and dragging. So.... no. I see, you can left click. Fair enough, but it still doesn't change the fact that the default value is slightly higher on the face. Thanks for the information (edited to say thanks for the info.)

Fair enough, but it still doesn't change the fact that the default value is slightly higher on the face. Yea, camera positioning is a bit lacking. Once you zoom in, it's hard to pan up and down. Just zoom out to max, select a different pose to reset the camera, and zoom again once again. This how I effectively panned to the position I wanted.
Jenea Gallente The Copernicus Institute	Posted - 2011.01.28 16:34:00 - [6] Been playing with the portrait creator for an hour or so. I think there was also a change to the zoom ratio. These changes are not an issue for 99.9978% of the players, but for someone who wants an indentical portrait from one character to the next, pre-patch and post-patch, well, yeah, it is an issue.
Yosarian Manth Caldari	Posted - 2011.01.28 16:36:00 - [7] I had the repositioning problem at first, but switching between preset poses enabled me to move my char further up the frame again.
Bongo Debbie Minmatar Trillionaire High-Rollers Suicidal Bassoon Orkesta	Posted - 2011.01.28 16:40:00 - [8] Seems ok to me. ----
Irani Firecam Fidelas Constans	Posted - 2011.01.28 17:29:00 - [9] I have noticed this too, and it's now impossible to recreate the same pose for this character without the forehead taking up the entire top half of the picture.
Corozan Aspinall Party Time Inc.	Posted - 2011.01.28 18:34:00 - [10] Did CCP eat your avatar? I wish they'd put the goddamned changes in the goddamned patch notes. And stop p*** around with the goddamned portraits. I really don't want to have to do it AGAIN but since I now look like a Ghoul, I guess there's not much to be done.. *sigh PS: Rage much?

Uhm, Recreate Your Character After Friday Downtime wasn't a big enough warning? The thing is. I am sick of it. As in tired of doing it, settling on it then having to update it again. I predict this is going to happen repeatedly from now on .. Which is just going to get really irritating tbh. As much as I enjoyed it the first three times like.

As much as I enjoyed it the first three times like. I don't think you are forced to recustomise your character, but given the option to do so. Flawless logic. I'll remember that one the next time there's an 'optional' patch that removes your entire face.
Merrya Minmatar BlackWing Cartel	Posted - 2011.01.28 19:07:00 - [16] I don't get it, i've suffered no face removal, but given the option to change up my avatar is nice after seeing how many people Use this hairtsyle on Babes of New Eden =S Nonetheless, i've been playing around with my character a bit, wanted to know what you guys thought while i'm in the editor. I decided to tack on a level of aging and go with a looser hairstyle for a little more character. ----------------------------------------------- Check out my Rifter
Corozan Aspinall Party Time Inc.	Posted - 2011.01.28 19:22:00 - [17] Basically I hijacked the thread to rage about something that appears to only be a problem effecting me. I think therefore you are safe. As long as you don't have any open wounds.
Commander Amy Stewart Caldari	Posted - 2011.01.28 19:28:00 - [18] I noticed that if you enter the portrait screen the FIRST time it looks normal, but if you go back to the sculpuring screen and then to the portrait screen again, it seems that the camera angle has changed.

I decided to tack on a level of aging and go with a looser hairstyle for a little more character. She's starting to remind me of that girl from Titan A.E. but with more Red.. It's not a bad thing, heh Your current one looks better tbh. The new one looks like it needs 2 bars to inflate those lips.
Syn Callibri Minmatar 21st Eridani Lighthorse	Posted - 2011.01.28 19:32:00 - [20] My avatar seems to be fine. [21EL] Commander Tac-Ops / [21EL] I.S.C.

I really like how you put that. I'm glad I'm not the only person to notice it. I had a petition in to change the hair color (was one shade off), but was told to wait until Friday, but now I can have the hair color, but not the shot I like best.

The new one looks like it needs 2 bars to inflate those lips. The lips are fashioned in such a way to bring the best out of the thumbnail. Check it Out They don't look the best in the big picture, but on the little thumbnails it's overall pretty good. Ooh, i think i might choose this one ----------------------------------------------- Check out my Rifter
