WarSteed "Kings Banner Accessory" still do not work

I see the WarSteed Forum did not make it over in the new forums so here goes from there.

WarSteed King' Banner Accessory does not work, the banner do not show.

I tested a few other flags, but it seems to only affect the Kings Banner. Flag of Gondor and Festive Azure Accessory do work, as examples. Also tried logging cycle. Oddly enough the cushion or pad on the steeds rear that goes with the Kings Banner, do show, but not the pole or the banner itself.

Not even changing appearance completely to a different set will help.

I already submitted a Ticket to SSG

So, aside from the ticket I made, how do one make sure to get this listed among fixes for next patch. To be frank, the other banners are so ugly

All those with TROLL SIZE POLE ornament...

Orc heads on a pike don't show either even though you can see them in the UI.

According to this thread, they're "aware and working on fixing it" -> https://forums.lotro.com/index.php?threads/bugged-warstead-cosmetics.1961/

I thought I checked for other threads about this , ah well , the more the merrier .

Thanks

I wonder how they messed this one up. As far as I know, Warsteed cosmetics aren't at all tied to avatar cosmetics, so they can't really use all the bugs introduced with avatar cosmetics as an excuse.

Good find!

Have either of you submitted bug reports at: https://help.standingstonegames.com/hc/en-us/requests/new ? I'd encourage you to do so, since it seems like these cosmetics have been broken for almost a year.

As I posted above I have indeed sent a bug report to SSG.

Ticket number: 270816
Got a reply from "Standing Stone Games Quality Assurance Team": 2022-11-21 16:44, sent from them at Nov 21, 2022, 7:39 AM PST.

I encourage others to do the same, if not done already.

Eek! Forgive my complete absence of reading comprehension. Crappy bug, though. Hope it gets fixed!

Yeah, same for the banner .

 

[kudurru]

Heads on a pike are back, hope the banner works now as well.

 

[Marancil]

Strange, none of those worked for me just some 12 hours ago.

Could it possibly be related to a gfx setting?

 

[kudurru]

Ok, so I just played a bit with different warsteed accesories and the King's Banner is AWOL both in the UI and when I mount the steed. Only its "base" is applied.

Heads on a pike work BUT are either always visible in the UI in all outfits till relog(that means that even when I choose something else, apply it and use that outfit, that banner or lamp is visible next to the Heads) or don't show in the UI at all. The former happens to other accesories also though so there's something really wonky going on here.

Over a year later, and this bug is still in the game...

It has actually been 3 years, 3 months, 19 days. I reported it first on the old forum in November 2021.

Sucks.

 

[Digitalhype]

This is still broken years after being reported. Is it difficult to fix?

 

[Nenaras]

Has this been cross-posted to the official Discord's #bugs channel or #suggestions-forum by chance? Might be good to raise it there. Still, pretty funny that this small bug has yet to be fixed, even years later. I kind of wonder whether they'll target it - if they're to target it at all - for Rohan's release on the Mordor and Angmar severs.

No, I have not brought it up in the Discord, it will only drown and fade away - as so much else. The Official support channel is still the Ticket Procedure and nothing else.
