Miscellaneous: Dain Frostreaver Has Wrong Head ( Should Be Wearing Icy Crown Graphic)

[Erati]

This is pretty random but always felt odd/out of place

Dain on p99 looks like this below:

(CoTH Race for Dain ( hehe ) if you freeze at frame 1:49 you see his head - note the lack of crown)



See where I am going because when I look at classic images of Dain I see this head+crown always and never the one shown above on our server

The only images of Dain without his icy crown graphic are all related to images from p99. All the other Dains ive come across have this crown and I wonder what gives - why does ours not have it and why does Dain have two entirely different models where one features a crown on his head while the other doesnt....

I believe this is a bug and should be remedied !

Dain Frostreaver.. can't have both legs and a crown at the same time. I'm not sure what the issue is, but he can be bald, with legs, or legless, with a crown. I opted to give him legs until/if this is corrected.

Mr Nilbog,

As a possible solution, is there any way to apply the crown as an equippable texture to Dain Frostreaver IV? He always drops Dain Frostreaver's Head, could you change this to a Head slot item, but change the Race to NONE so no one else can equip it? I believe it being no drop will prevent it from showing up on charmed pets if anyone was silly enough to try it.

Basically when Dain spawns, have his head equipped, would that get the crown to show without interfering with his legs? It is an unclassic fix, but not nearly as noticeable as his missing crown.

Judging by the picture, the crown is level on his head, so can maybe just truncate the image file of his upper head and splice it on?

Edit: upon further reflection, maybe spawn him with no head and have his head with crown be the texture?

bump

Nilbog, could we please see what he looks like without legs and crown, then the P99 people can decide who is their true Dain.
