Special Metal Crafts: Weight bug?
« on: July 10, 2023, 01:15:19 PM »
 It was stated previously that most special metals such as Dlarun, Fever Iron, Darksteel etc. would be receiving a weight reduction after the crafting alteration went through recently but after having forged a new suit of dlarun just to be certain, I can say that it does not appear to have taken.

 I had an old suit made before the update and a new one made.

Where: Armor properties listings and inventory weight calculations.

When: The moment of the recent crafting update taking effect.

What: Armor still appears to be at it's full weight value.

Recreate: Forge a suit of full plate from the intended metals for the reduction.

Ideas:

Linings can have an effect on weight, it would be helpful to post images of both set's weight and lining.

This was an oversight error from my part. I submitted the fix for the next update.

Gloves, bracers, metal weapons, metal helmets, metal armors, gauntlets and boots made of astral driftmetal, arcane steel, arandur, dlarun, fever iron and darksteel will be given the 90% of weight property.

This should now be fixed retroactively.

Dlarun armor previously posted has no weight reduction value as a property and still sits at full 60lbs.

This is true for me as well. Weapons affected but not armour.

Thanks MAB. I believe helms were still full weight too if that means anything.

And even weapons according to what I saw. There was a mess up when I uploaded the original files. Hopefully this will fix it once and for all.

It doesn't seem to have worked retroactively with at least two of my character's armors though the new stuff is getting the reduction. However one of those suits was forged after the crafting change so I can't break it down via the machine.

I've found the cause for Dlarun. Any other metals weren't properly fixed?

Not to my knowledge but I don't believe I have any armors made from other affected metals to confirm.
