OMG Thanks so much for these AMAZING updates!!! :O

Zoee

Thank you so much, Minitie and other staff!! I definitely have been taking note of certain glitches and what not that I notice from time to time and will definitely be sharing those here soon :)

bluewiz

really impressed to see updates on those items! looking forward to seeing this trend continue :) 

To nobody's surprise: I'd still love to see the 2017 Haunted Painting Trio (Skeleton, Moon, & Forest) get an animated update sometime soon! 

Thank you for doing this and for the communication about said updates!

sunday_monkey

Yay, thank you so much for the updates! Nice way to start 2020. Thank you for all your hard work.

Zoee

Here are a couple of glitches I've noticed for a while!

1. While sitting when wearing any of the 3 colors of "Camping Boots - color - Girl" (not sure if this happens for boys), the shoes change into what looks like the Halloween 2010 ballgown shoes.

Camping boots while standing:

Camping boots while sitting:

 

2. While sitting, but only when the avatars head turns, the "Land Mermaid - Hair - Soft Blue - Girl", "Land Mermaid - Hair - Soft Purple - Girl" and "Land Mermaid - Hair - Green - Girl" (again, not sure if boys hairs are affected by this) turn into the "Sunrise Land Mermaid Hair - Girl". 

"Soft Blue", "Soft Purple", & "Green" hair while sitting down, facing forward:

"Soft Blue", "Soft Purple", & "Green" hair while sitting down, when avatar's head turns: 

Note: This glitch only happens while sitting down, head turns while standing are normal. 

Items that stack in inventory (I think because they share the same name) but are different:

Skull Biker - Shoes - Girl (Black & White)

Skull Biker - Pants - Girl (Black & Blue)

Items that are both non-storable in storage bins & non-tradable (I'd particularly like to be able to store these):

Thanks so much for all these great updates! <3

Ooo, finally realized what an issue was that I was having: 

I think in adding the music scroll ability to the Bayou piano and antique organ they automatically play sound that doesn't match.

right now any room I have that has either of those two in the room play the audio of a... football room i think? (its heartbeats, a timer ticking and then presumably footsteps walking on a track.) 

It plays over any other music you're playing in the room as well -- which is a little concerning cause I have a piano on my ride and the glitch sounds its playing is anything but Christmas haha.

EDIT: did a test of attempting to put in a piano scroll to see if this will stop the undesired sound from happening but 1) it does not stop the sound that is already playing. and 2) the scroll does not stay in the piano. if you re-enter the room/check the inventory again the scroll will be in your inventory as if you never placed it in. 

VFK_Enigma

@bluewiz looking into the issue the scroll should remain in the Piano and Organ now.  Also we were able to reproduce the heatbeat sound issue, though putting a scroll into the organ/piano and removing it should fix it for now, so give that another try, 

Meanwhile, we will try to track down the source of the problem!

@Zoee thanks for the great list including pictures!

UPDATE 12:54 AM 1/4/2020:

The sound should no longer play when you enter the room!

Flamanar

Thanks Mintie!  You folks work hard.  It's much appreciated!

This is an amazing thread. I love how vfk listened to players concerns and went ahead to try to fix any items that were a little buggy. Big kudos to the staff

millsfan

When I get home I’m going to make a post on here about some boy items that could use some updating

EDIT - Just posted boy clothing that have glitches, suggested fixes for levitate fx, and posted trophy items that have a "sell button"

millsfan

Levitate fx has a purple glow around the character when playing in a browser, but epic ages doesn’t show this glow. Could the epic ages client get updated to display levitate fx properly?

This is just a suggestion (not a fix), but I think it would be cool if levitate fx didn’t use the walking animation when moving. It would be cool if we just floated up and down. The best pose while floating would be a floating animation similar to fairy fx, but I know that pose with the feet dragging behind our floating character is made for the fairy clothing (so I understand you can’t apply that pose to our normal vfk characters since that pose is made for fairy clothing)

This jacket, "Weekend Wear - Jacket - Gray - Boy" has had this glitch since it came out long ago.  At this 3 quarter right view, the upper right portion of the jacket turns into a blue ish color.  Its hard to see, but look at the upper right part of the jacket and the sleeve.  Its weird, it only happens at this angle.

This next shirt is the Newer Beta day 1 shirt.  I could not capture the glitch with a screenshot because it is a visual glitch that happens when you walk.  The glitch is visible from the back angle and back quarter angles.  The upper left part of the shirt (kind of where the left armpit is has a weird glitch where the shirt pops in a weird way).  Its hard to explain, but if a dev puts this shirt on a boy character and scrutinizes the shirt, you'll see where it looks funky.

 Jungle Tiki - Gloves - Boy  does NOT load in the closet

Bronze Medal - Sand Castle 2018 is able to be sold 

Silver Medal- Sand Castle 2019 is able to be sold

Halloween Ride Competition 4th Place pin shows a RED 4th place pin when previewing it in your inventory.... this was always a funny glitch, but should be fixed

millsfan

This item does not load in inventory

EDIT: Idk what this weird formatting text is or why it appears ^^ Would be great if it didn't

Hi Miss Mintie and Madame Enigma -- thanks so much for starting off 2020 on a great note!

Here are some issues I've noticed:

“Wooden Train - Blue” (Christmas 2008) is Green.

Spoiler:

“Halloween 2016 Party Favor - Coffin - Red” shows the other party favor when clicked in your inventory.

Spoiler:

“Spring Hedge Trellis Bench” (Quest 2019) does not allow us to sit.

"Beta Day 1 - 11th Anniversary Hat" cuts off when our characters face up and to the left. This happens every other frame while walking.

Spoiler:

I'm pretty sure there is also an issue with the new 2019 Santa Hat -- it glitches on a frame every once in a while. Sorry no picture because it happens so quickly

When a user grabs an item from the "Candy Cane Cart - Antique", anyone else who loads into the room afterward will see this user as a blue blob.

When SITTING and facing forwards, hats and glasses positions are off by a few pixels. Please see the picture below:

Spoiler:

It appears as though hats are too far left, and glasses are too high and slightly too far to the right.

We also never got our Modifier pins from the 2019 Racing Competitions

Thanks again!

millsfan

Could the surfboard wave item get the option to sit on it?

Zoee

I don't mean to bombard or overwhelm staff but I've remembered a few other glitches/bugs that I've noticed:

1. The "Western Cowboy Hat - Color Pink - Never Released" floats above the avatar's head when sitting at 3 different angles, but is fine at 1 angle (pictured below).

The next few are by no means burning issues, but these are a few things I've noticed as I've collected my pins :)

2. The following pins are off-centred in their previews:

Sharks Vs Zombies Pin

Sharks Vs Zombies - Tazznado Pin

Prehistoric Pin IV - Mr. Ugh

Flaming Skull Pin

Haunted Tiki Mask Pin

Christmas 2010; 2011; 2012; 2013; 2014; 2015 Pins

3. The following pins are a loading circle in their previews:

Easter Pin 2017

Easter Bunny Melody 2019 Pin

Family V.I.P. Pin - 2020

 

4.  I think this happens, in some form, with all of the Bunny Pin Hunt 2019 pins, but for example purposes I've just included the Fairy Butterfly and Monarch Butterfly in the photos. It's kind of hard to capture in images, but it's definitely noticeable when you're watching the animations. It seems that these pins are a bit too big for the frame they're in? So when the wings expand, the squared edges of the pin frame become noticeable as the wings get cut off. The pictures below kind of capture it, but like I said, it's definitely more noticeable in game.

5. Also, like Tomorrow said, my Milk Moustache goes up to my nose when facing forward while sitting hehe

6. "The Ultimate Easter Cheep Hay Nest Hat" has a purple cheep in the egg at every angle except while facing forward (it appears as yellow). This also happens while the avatar is sitting and facing forward. 

I would add a photo but since this is an edit it won't allow me to.

7. I would love to see some animation updates to the "Ice Cream Cart - Teal - Antique" and "Explorer Birdcage - Antique" where the birds move <3

8. I'd also love for the "Ghost Dragon Castle - Fountain" to be animated so that the water moves!

9. I found another couple items that stack in inventory:

The Christmas 2014 Ballgown tops in Highland Plaid - Red & Highlight Plaid - White are called "Skirt", so they stack with the skirts of the same colors.

Thanks again, so much, for listening to the player base! I understand how busy you guys are and greatly appreciate the effort you're putting in to work on existing issues <3 

Flamanar

Few things I've been watching:

'Astro Club' (Star Membership) pin doesn't load

thanksgiving party favors still don't load

silver new years party favors don't load

Tomorrow noticed what I noticed with the new Santa hats.  They glitch pretty badly each time the colors start a new cycle (typically when the color blue/green comes up).  Impossible to miss, does not glitch in all positions.  Noticeable when character is facing the 5 o'clock position.

Normal:

  

Glitch:

Although the bottom pic there looks kinda funny, lol.  Thanks Mintie!!!

Holly

Were the robot toys we got from Santa a while back ever fixed? If not, that would be another great item to work on at some point! :)

Holly

I also just noticed that the "Skeleton Horse Saddle Blanket, Bridle & Saddle" isn't loading.

Hi VFK_ Mint.ie  Thank you for all the updates. I noticed we still can not open out robot toys from Santa last year. Can? there be a update to fix this as well . Hugs Twinkles

@VFK_Mintie There is one main glitch I can think of right now that I would personally love to get fixed soon. I noticed this glitch not long after the Bubbletastic memberships came out. Basically, I have my mermaid outfit set but when I mount my seahorse, the outfit changes to a different outfit. Then when I get off my see horse, my mermaid outfit changes back to my regular mermaid outfit. I have changed to different outfits to test this and it always still changes to this one outfit upon mounting the seahorse. It is basically like it's stuck or something. I added pictures below to show what I mean.

Mermaid outfit after mounting:

Also, thank you @VFK_Mintie and all the other staff that played a part in the fixing of those glitches! I appreciate it very much! Happy New Year!

Clearing cache would fix this problem, however we forced a cache update on the pin, and it should appear correctly now.

Tomorrow mentioned, "When a user grabs an item from the "Candy Cane Cart - Antique", anyone else who loads into the room afterward will see this user as a blue blob."

It should be fixed now, if it occurs again, try clearing your cache and refreshing, and let us know if that works!

Thank you again for all the great suggestions and watch for more exciting updates!

Woot so glad to see these things have been updated and fixed!! :D
