i take it you're the black necro

the game only renders your own characters in high detail in towns, all the rest is low detail.

The FOW look horrible in low detail, but that doesn't mean they "changed"

Either the skin didn't load all the way, or something is wrong with your graphics.

The differences in armor are not because of low graphics hers is very different she has scars down her stomach and blood on her shoulder spikes...

I didnt edit my armor as it looks exactly like the official website I am wearing the black fow...

And if She edited her armor with texmod i SHOULD not be seeing her mods...

if you were running textmod at that time (even if it was to mod other textures) chances are textures load wrong (as in : on the wrong surfaces). Your PC has had a hickup, nothing actually changed.

assuming that you are the one on the left.

its nothing against you. honestly..its just on this site so many people try to pull so many jokes on other people by posting fake screenshots. so when something like this comes up, unfortunately because of others my first thought goes to "fake".

more likely your graphics card said "no thx".

I saw that same thing a few days ago. Didn't really pay attention but now that you bring it up, it is weird. My necro has the old stuff, and imo it looks way better.

I had this happen before and it is a bug in game. You can see your own fow armor normally and others with fow armor you'll see like the other one.

WHERE DO YOU THINK

If there was somethin missing it would be understandable but the armors being completely different is strange. I mean everyone elses FoW helm on my war have shiney mirror faceplates.

Mmmmm, I had my first "repair" though the game was perfect just 2 hours prior. Really strange - imaging seemed to break the dat somehow.

Its not bug and its not corrupted data file.

Its probably that low res fow necro female textures were not updated for new look. They are based on old, never released version of FoW. It was like this at least for year and half ... I suspec it was like this ever since release.

i've had this happen before on my glads. im 90% sure its a low graphical error. i had mine way down for laptop purposes during some light pvp, and the other warrior beside me looked like he was wearing 15k glads, and i looked like i was homeless and infected with something that could go airborne. he even asked me what the hell was wrong with my armor, because it looked so awful.

if you're on the left with the nice graphics, you're probably seeing her awful graphics on the right. otherwise.. i have no clue and would venture to agree with MagmaRed and the corrupted .DAT file extension.

So you're saying that if I set my graphics way down it affects how others see me. What are you smoking? My graphics settings in no way affect any other person in the game.
