clockwork watchman armor not having velious texture

[Napibilis]

Just made a clockwork watchman helm and it looks like normal plate helm, I remember it looking as velious quested armor plate helms. 100% sure

Not sure if rest of clockwork armor pieces textures are right, only made a helm.

Also when I am at character selection screen helm is not visible (i do have "show my helm" option on)
Do I have to turn any feature on?

Are you thinking of custom helm graphics? Some of the quested plate helms don't have a graphic since they are crowns.
Do you have velious textures turned on in your eqclient.ini?

That's how it should look like.

The Zam comments seem to indicate it was custom looking back in February 2001.

See also Helm of the Tracker, which was normal plate and gets upgraded to new custom plate texture.

Found this patch note on Feburary 2, 2001, stating that "more future art was added" via a game file. Perhaps these were the custom helm textures and the Watchman's Helm was the first one to use it? And the custom quests and Tracker Helm were implemented in April?

As of this moment, I don't think Velious armor textures are working as intended. I have tried everything to fix it. But this is server sided problem.

I had a toon in that guild :)

So the CW helm isn't displaying correctly? That's a major malfunction. So basically the CW helm has been luclinized on p99 :(

It is giving custom helm appearance, all is well.
