Wrong character graphics?

[MaryForUo]

I don't know if anyone has already noticed and written about it,
but if you move your character around, you can see that what he is holding is shown ok in 5 positions.
In all the others you always see what you have in your right arm (for example the shield) while you should see what you have in your left arm !!
See the pic:

Classic Client - Weapon/shield swapping hands

The character's paperdoll will display a weapon in the right hand and a shield in the left. On the character in classic client in game this is correctly represented when facing west, however when facing east the weapon/shield swap hands and are displayed in the incorrect position.

Ya been that way forever.

this is an old 2d trick to save on time of making sprites. left/right sprites are almost always mirrored. it's like that in most 2d games tbh, even newer ones lol

Whatever you do, don't wear one of the "threads of" robes only and turn to show your backside while mounted. Your behind will shine through as well as yer thighs I was asked to submit this as a bug about ohhh 10+ years ago? I would suspect it is the same for elf robes, but well.... Elves stink.

Oh and how bone helms look diff on girl chars than boy chars. Still no answers on that one either.

These "bugs" are the least of our problems..We got other much bigger gooses to fry sadly. But hey, its still a ton of fun for me every time I get a little chance to play..

you remember when any hat you put on an elf went to become a circlet? I wish that was the same today
