beta-season-test-chat

[lavish matrix]

That could work! Randomised would be perfect

[solar lark]

Gacha dyes

[icy isle]

the new color trail gacha /j

[upper drift]

and i think the candle to dye ratio could be cheaper. like 2 candle for dye bc i don't want it to be fomo at all

[hushed charm]

I really do hope we can buy it in anyway, specially because i have a feeling we gonna have them on pass too

[lavish matrix]

If its down to players' choice then a lot of them would instead chose to buy the dyes. The dyes aren't limited time feature, keep in mind. The desire to get the dyes fast is one of the symptoms of fomo which isn't what I want to be encouraged

[cloud ocean]

I’m still hoping that the season trees for the spirits this time have some dyes in them where the spells would be…

[hushed charm]

After moomin giving me nothing but trail spells yeah

[lavish matrix]

Tbh players would absolutely choose to buy dyes instead of dye running if its like that

People LOVE cheap stuff

[upper drift]

i mean if its permanent and cheap, then its really up to the player and how they decide to spend their candles over anything else no? but i agree it could mess with the healthy factor if the game, but i also think players who simply don't want to run or don't have time to should be able to enjoy this feature as well without needing to grind or spend too much time on the game

[lavish matrix]

I agree! Getting dyes instead of spells like how in flight (iirc) we get trails

[upper drift]

but honestly i very much so like the two random free dyes idea lol, especially for very new players once they get spell shop

[lavish matrix]

Well tbh there are other ways instead of offering candles >dye exchange. Like increasing the collection rate and have the dyes available on spirit trees etc etc

[upper drift]

oh true, im an avid believer in faster rates of collection (maybe 30% to 50% faster? its slow still) and no dye cap

[lavish matrix]

Yeah that's better than offering dirt cheap way of getting dyes (and adding another pressure on your candle savings)

[upper drift]

i was thinking more have both so players who are busy can also get dyes but i can see ur argument against it too, and it makes a lot of sense especially for those who don't really control spending habits well in sky (me)

[icy isle]

real 🗣️ (i didn't know there was a dye cap)

[lavish matrix]

Idk how much is the dye cap ngl

[lofty spade]

And, if some people still want to grind, but not too much, i would like to see a third variant of the dark plants, since we only have 2, the smaller ones and the "harvestman" ones, maybe a "giant" version, where a more bigger than the 2nd variations, where that one give you a 4 or 5 full dyes at once

[upper drift]

me neither i just know its incredibly likely considering dye plants cannot be returned to on most versions to get more dye and are 'dried out'

[icy isle]

they could also add more colored plants in the realms instead of them being random

[lavish matrix]

The humogous ones in the secluded area

Maybe hmm somewhere in seasonal areas like ark?

[upper drift]

days of rainbow falling wax in home should by dyed wax and it should have a daily cap but NO DYE CAP PLEASE TGC

[lofty spade]

I would say that this one would follow the same rules as the red crystals

[lavish matrix]

Depending on how much is dye cap (is it daily?), I think it's fine to have a dye cap as a way to prevent players from brute force farming themselves

[solar lark]

bring back the huge aviary plant

[icy isle]

they better bring it back please 😭

[hushed charm]

You need more to melt this

[upper drift]

hm true maybe a dye cap of xx amount of every color per day and increase collection rates (1-2hr total grinding max) to ensure players don't physically harm themselves in any way trying to get a lot of dyes

[lavish matrix]

Exactly! I see caps as a balancing factor for players overall health. You'll never realise how much you've burned yourself out from brute forcing farming stuff

[upper drift]

that's true i didn't rly think about how some players might push themselves too far to get a certain amount of dye, but i think dyes shouldn't be super limited bc of how versatile, even if overall its a lot of dye number-wise it can easily go by fast depending on the interest a player has in the mechanic- but should also be revisit-able to allow for replayability and long-term interest in the feature for players to come back wanting to do more

[lavish matrix]

Wait wdym they can't be revisited?

[icy isle]

#beta-screenshots-videos message
this looks cursed lowkey, especially since the "shoes" are colored in 😭

[lavish matrix]

YEAH I'm having a whiplash. It doesn't look good at all

[upper drift]

oh no i mean if you get too much immediately then you might just be able to stock up a ton on dyes and not need to grind at all anymore, making it not very replayable in terms of certain players who don't want to dye much compared to those who want to dye a lot

[lavish matrix]

Hold on I don't get what is your point

my brain is loading

[upper drift]

uhhh lemme try to explain differently

it takes abt 2 dyes for any specific section of clothing, and i think you should easily be able to get enough daily to do so at least once every day
however a cap should be implemented due to likelihood of players physically or mentally straining themselves
you also have to account for the fact that as it's a permanent feature players should be able to revisit it and do more after a few weeks of grinding, so too much too fast means there's less a replayability factor as you already have a lot of everything (like say 30 of each dye in a week, that's a lot )
as such i think that the replayability, grinding, and ease of access should be accordingly balanced but in favor of ease of access as its a more quality of life feature in the game

does that make a little more sense 😭 i worded it p weird so

[nocturne blade]

I think I get what you’re saying??

[upper drift]

im bad at explaining things sometimes

basically i don't mean that its literally not something you can't replay after some time, but if you have too large a stock of it too soon you won't want to replay it- thus why i said "replayability" and "revisit"

[lavish matrix]

Yeah it makes sense now I just take it as in we can revisit the same dye plants to get more like thats kinda counterproductive

[nocturne blade]

Words are hard to get out of the brain and onto the screen 😔

[lavish matrix]

Yupp makes sense, a good cap will make it stay an appealing feature for a long time

@nocturne blade mood fr and then I can not understand a word sometimes lmao

[upper drift]

but anyways, i think the max amount of time that should be spent on grinding is 1½-2hrs (mainly 1½ as its a QoL mechanic and not like candles which are an in-game currency) and should minmax with 1/each dye or so per day- its a lot of dye total but its not a lot when it comes to long term tbh

[lavish matrix]

That's also like, how nesting would suddenly becomes a less of appealing feature once you buy out all the furnitures and make it deserted ish in the long run

[lavish matrix]

I honestly get behind this idea, I think it'll balance the feature usage in the long run

[upper drift]

it is also something to be considered that as its a permanent mechanic, even after coming to live it can be further refined and revised, possibly allowing for more, such as maybe a glow pigment to allow accents on capes to glow, or a pastel series of dyes, more colors for color combinations, etc.

[lavish matrix]

Omg yes glow pigment pls I was kinda bummed when the cute glowy eye markings on the radiance mask or passage one's get lost in the other dyes

[orchid knot]

I don’t think they lose too much glow honestly, at least the passage ones didn’t when I tested

[upper drift]

yeees and i love glowy things
but easily what comes in this season could very well not be the last of it, so i think balanced implementation immediately on the current iteration is dire

[lavish matrix]

So for now we should be getting the basic feature released in the season, and have it expanded little by little in the long run

@orchid knot really??

[upper drift]

a lot of permanent features in games have been expanded upon, even in sky (such as; placing props, into hsving shared spaces, into having a whole little nest to decorate)

[orchid knot]

I can check again tomorrow but I think it maybe depends on dye/tint combinations, some colours are gonna be darker and more toned down so they don’t appear as bright, but when I slapped green and such on it didn’t feel like it wasn’t as glowy/bright

[lavish matrix]

Oh right yeah! Hopefully the feature will be nicely optimised for the first release and not to cause crash fest in live 🙏 (I'm sure devs are aware of it lol)

[upper drift]

lol yes 😭 beta testers live for crashing at this point lmao

[lavish matrix]

The passage masks with the black dye is low-key cursed

[hushed charm]

Good

[lavish matrix]

It's like the masks suddenly become faceless

<- I wear the moon mask but that's different. I have the lashes lmao

[upper drift]

unfortunately optimization of what's there does come before further implementing things to the feature, buuut very likely this is nowhere near the end of the mechanic (even if it takes a while to get all the other cool stuff and outfits dyeable )

[lavish matrix]

Yea I think there's a lot of room but I think devs are careful since it's a very ✨️new✨️ feature and not burn the ram out putting it in live

[upper drift]

mm mmm mmm i love my switch catching fire from opening sky (sky used 3000 gb ram from unoptimized dye feature and it only had 268gb ram 💔)

[gloomy jungle]

I know this has probably been asked a lot, but- I’m trying to join IOS beta, but I don’t see any recent links for IOS. Is beta only open to Android now?

[lavish matrix]

Rip to switch players out there

[upper drift]

you would have to wait until they open beta again for people to sign up for- which does not guarantee a slot- and we do not know when they will reopen beta invites

[gloomy jungle]

Thank you for responding ^^ I’m on the android beta, but I don’t like playing on my phone XD I just wish I could play on my beta account on IOS

[upper drift]

there is a ping role for it somewhere though that you can get for when or if they reopen invites

[upper drift]

im one of the five switch players 😔 i hope it doesn't get too bad bc i don't like playing mobile, hurts ny hands
/and last time i experienced a crash during a season on switch, my friend who plays exclusively iOS got compensated and i didnt

i was lucky i had just gotten a new phone, or i wouldn't have been able to finish the season even after having paid for the pass

[dense sedge]

Hello! I'm seeing a lot of references to the dyeing menu "force closing" on players when they don't want it to close. I'm not sure I understand what this is referring to-- we have a common behavior in all of our menus where if you tap-outside of the menu it'll close, is that what folks are referring to?

In the latest beta we've released, we're experimenting with not having the tap-outside-to-close behavior in this particular menu, is anyone still seeing this "force close"?

[upper drift]

in the last version i experienced it closing on no input outside of the dye selection screen, but sadly with this version i cannot make it to the area to check without crashing 😔 but i will keep trying 🫡 it'll let me get there eventually, surely

[dense sedge]

Thanks!

[dense sedge]

And sorry to hear you're crashing 😦 I haven't seen this myself but will let the team know

[orchid knot]

Oh even without tapping it has been forcing you out randomly at times, lemme see if I can grab a video!

[covert bison]

It would close without touching outside the dye menu, this makes it hard to choose colors because you have to start over each time

[orchid knot]

either it knows I'm trying to get a video or it was fixed this update It definitely kicked me out randomly in previous builds but maybe this build is working more as intended!

I'll sit here for a bit just to see if it does it though

[austere flume]

#beta-bugs-ios message / #beta-bugs-ios message
In the previous builds, it looked like this.

[orchid knot]

Omg hi that's my bug report I knew I had a video somewhere for it

[austere flume]

I read all the bug reports, so I remembered it a little.

[high atlas]

I think it was fixed this update cuz I went to play with dye and nothing happened for me

[orchid knot]

OH IT DID IT but my kid went to sleep so maybe that's the only time you get kicked now

[covert bison]

I can’t remember if it was happening this current build

[ionic pendant]

I think it was still happening to me last time I went into the dye shop? I can poke at it again but I can't record video myself. ^_^;

[high atlas]

I feel like it kicking you after you go afk would make sense since many UI menus do that when you afk

[orchid knot]

I wondered why my video was taking so long to save but it's 9 minutes 😭

[upper drift]

with the outfit combination of the new deer/bovine mask, stagehands garments (hair & pants), ninny's bell, and performance ult cape the game crashes on any reload point. removal of the mask allowed to teleport and enter realms with only a slight stutter, no crash. the new menu does not automatically close even with inputs outside of the UI, however inputs outside of the color choosing screen can close with outside of UI taps. no experience of it automatically closing as of yet though
/to clarify only the color selection screen closes, not the whole UI

[lavish matrix]

Though cy did keep crashing when they're still wearing their basic basegame outfits so I don't think the crashes are related to the new cosmetics

[upper drift]

its possible, but it was consistent (crashed three times while wearing mask, didn't crash at all after removing it)
it is just my own experience with it so far, it might be relating to system OS or other things. i run a snapdragon 690 OS system

[lavish matrix]

If anything it does sound randomised and may be different for every individual players

[orchid knot]

Yeah I definitely notice more crashing when wearing new season items, whether it’s a factor or just a coincidence idk but I’m living in moth pants whilst I test things

WAIT I FORGOT TO CHANGE BACK TO MOTH PANTS

[lavish matrix]

Why do you have 9 minutes of recording for Dylan bubba

[high atlas]

Bubba might be trapped forever

[orchid knot]

I was checking for random menu kicks, it was a successful 9 minutes because there were none until my kid took a nap

[lavish matrix]

Send prayers to bubba in beta

[high atlas]

Though I haven't been using moth pants and I haven't experienced any crashes. So it does seem rather random on my end. It isn't a product of dye, new cosmetics, or anything. I literally just can't leave my own house

[orchid knot]

It’s fiiiiiiiiiine I’ve done all my bug reporting for tonight, crashes are a tomorrow me problem

[upper drift]

maybe if i compress videos enough .......... maybe i can get them to fit in bug reports

[orchid knot]

I am really glad about the tapping out of dye menu doesn’t close it change though, makes previewing so much easier since we can turn our kid around to see all angles!

[lavish matrix]

Good luck with being on the lock down bubba

[dense sedge]

Ah gotcha, that'd make sense! We have a blanket rule that any time your character goes to sleep, it closes the active menu. I could see that being annoying in this case though, I'll talk with the team about finding a better solution here

[orchid knot]

Thank you so much! Sending you and the team lots of cold pillow and Lego-free floor wishes!

[lavish matrix]

I doubt anyone here have legos nowadays

[ionic pendant]

Oh I think it might be fixed now! I was able to goof around in the dye menu for quite a bit with no problem. Dyed my shoes too.

[high atlas]

I still have to mess with dye colors for shoes. I hope we can dye more shoes in the future too

[orchid knot]

Nooooo not at all…….. side eyes my three in one, koi, tiger, bird Lego kit

Btw we should have sky Lego but that’s not really a beta thing so

[ionic pendant]

We desperately need to be able to dye the witch boots that go with the jumper so we can make them match in other colors. ^_^

[high atlas]

My parents have a ton of Legos actually. Lego plants and Star wars things. So it's not unlikely to have Legos on the ground!

[orchid knot]

I would like pink ballet pumps and I hope we can also dye the base spirit shoes from revival

[ionic pendant]

Oh yes the various Revival sandles, I'd really like to have them in other shades. ^_^

[high atlas]

Oooo if we get pink ballet pumps, maybe we can have a tutu!

[rigid kayak]

I've already reported this before but has anyone else been randomly kicked out of the color picking menu randomly even though you're actively picking colors?

[cloud ocean]

I want to dye the spirit shoes from revival gold ✨
oh god imagine if we could dye each shoe different colors

[lavish matrix]

I thought it's been fixed according to some people here?

Maybe still report it then

[high atlas]

Actually, a dev just popped in asking about this. If you're still experiencing it, you should send a bug report in! Many of us have said it's fixed already.

[upper drift]

as expected opening chat, friends menu, and settings also all close the UI lolol but otherwise there are no sudden closing UIs anymore with the new update for me
im fine with the color select screen closing to go back to the outfit select screen with taps outside of the UI tho it makes sense

[orchid knot]

I just found another bug to report

Wait it’s from the build before this one I have to go check if it’s still a bug

[high atlas]

Sounds like the pants change is a today bubba problem

[orchid knot]

Praying to the crash goblins to let me go honk at a plant to test a thing without 💥

NVM I CRASHED

[lavish matrix]

Bubba flew too close to the sun

[orchid knot]

And again, I guess plant honking will have to wait, but if anybody is available I noticed last build honking by pressing and holding on avatar shrunk the vines but honking by holding the call button in the menu didn't

[high atlas]

Ohhh I can test

[orchid knot]

AHH yay thank you Luci!! I am being decimated by crashes, I simply honked by my wardrobe and poof

[high atlas]

I was going to wasteland to test and somehow my skykid landed on the tiny sliver of a flag flying in the wind what 😭

Okay so it works from the menu for me!

[solar lark]

Have you tried the good ol method of not crashing?

[orchid knot]

omg next time I login I'm definitely gonna try that!

[blazing crown]

Had a thought: during days a color there should be a ×2 color collection event and/or a giant rainbow darkness plant in the 8 player puzzle

[ionic pendant]

Dunno why I decided to dye another version of the outfit I was already wearing instead of some of my undyed radiance stuff but I was able to make a whole green and brown/orange version of the set I've been wearing lately with no unexpected UI closing. ^_^

[high atlas]

Finally did a full dye run for GW. I don't particularly like running through wasteland but it wasn't that bad imo. I actually stopped and helped another skykid with some larger dye plants that I couldn't see. They kept getting krilled and I felt awful.

[pseudo adder]

dye plants are clientside and not server side?? oh… ig i cant help my friends with dye runs then…

[high atlas]

Could be not intended. It is still a new thing and iirc the shard plants had similar issues when they were first introduced

[lavish matrix]

I mean the regular dark plants are in there too lol

Then shards are also a mistake by this logic (the red crabs )

But yeah they could be placed outside the krill paths

[high atlas]

I mean it is posing more of a challenge that can be overcome with help. I was warding off krills with krill dodges so this person could burn their dyed plants. It just takes a bit of patience

I just felt bad they were by themselves dealing with krills, so I stopped in to help them with the one plant in the krill path. The others didn't need assistance

[lavish matrix]

Finally krill baiters become useful

Yep it's a game of cooperation to begin with

there's just so many introverts /j

[maiden basin]

Does anyone know if the dark plants are in different locations for players? I was burning a plant and this player was a bit further from me burning another one (they were burning air on my screen )

Edit: Gotcha!

[high atlas]

It doesn't seem to be synced up yes. Sometimes I merge with players who have the same plants, sometimes I don't. I was actually just talking about a player who didn't have the same plants as me!

[maiden basin]

I believed at some point they were trying to get my attention to help them, but yeah I couldn't see anything 😭

[lavish matrix]

It would be nice if it isn't client side

[orchid knot]

I hope the rotations sync per server at least, it would suck going on dye runs with friends and not having the same plants

[lavish matrix]

Me when shards were bugged between switch and mobile

[high atlas]

You should definitely make sure to feedback your thoughts on that, h! That way the devs know it is difficult!

[maiden basin]

It reminds me of when Android/iOS had shards a bit further from Nintendo players

[sharp dagger]

From my own experience, it's the exact same issue as when the red shards were out of sync... those plants aren't going to burn for you until the server says "your turn." I spent almost 3 minutes trying to burn a plant that just wouldn't go down while everyone else was apparently going through their's. Had to turn off my internet just to restart the burning.

Color plants definitely need to have instance cadences synced to avoid that.

[lavish matrix]

Yeah I think it's a similar situation to the shards. Hopefully there's a chance for the plants to sync up

Maybe they're client side to test the diff placements?

[high atlas]

That could be. They have been rather random each day with the different cycles

[sharp dagger]

Not even each day... each time I go back into an area, there's a different set of plants to burn.

[high atlas]

I noticed that kinda. I was trying to figure out if that was a bug or not. It only happens in prairie pot caves and prairie village for me though

[orchid knot]

Mega dye stonks!

[high atlas]

Well yes, but it also does eventually have a limit. So idk if it's intended or not

[lavish matrix]

If there's a cap then it probably just a test random placement to test the possible positions at any given time. Like how shards rotate different positions in an area

[solemn bramble]

Does entering new season area make you crash? It won’t let me enter

[chrome plover]

Mine crash too lmao im so done with this

[hushed charm]

I can see the switch being desynced again once this hits live 😭

[vale temple]

So many people are confused about notorious' screenshot. The underside of the cape has been dyed. 👽 It was orange but then dyed white

#beta-screenshots-videos message

[vale temple]

Also I haven't been able to log in without instantly crashing this entire update. It sucks. I appear on home pad and then crash immediately.

[lavish matrix]

colour blindness test season

[analog crater]

I uninstalled and installed sky beta and it went back to normal, about the bug

[golden ore]

I'm gonna just reinstall each new beta build atp

[fossil pebble]

can anyone show me how the crow cape from this past halloween dyes ? *and the wireframe cape from this most recent anniversary/sky birthday event 🙏

[upper drift]

why does the picture of bluish white underside performance ult have a whole conversation going on in the reactions 💀

oh okay i scrolled up a little 😭 makes sense

[cloud ocean]

I don’t think either of those dye? The tech for the crow cape is really complex on its own… and the wireframe cape is very tied to tgc so I doubt that’ll be dyeable
We’ll see tho

[hazy crescent]

Do yall think it would be fair to put black and white dye in Eden? Since it's clear they are the most sought after dyes the challenge would be reasonable

[spiral needle]

[pseudo adder]

not fair to capeless since they cant enter eden door :( but also it doesnt seem feasible in general... burnable plants in pnr/rock fall areas would be really upsetting (and would hurt moths imo). the other half in krill zones is fine tho ig

like imagine trying to get out of rock fall but theres a dye plant blocking the quickest route and u lose 4 more wl from it

[hazy crescent]

Oh I forgot abt the capeless
But yeah I meant Eden before pnr cause personally I'd play rock dodgeball to get my hands of black and white dye faster

[pseudo adder]

i dont think theres enough time to burn plants in rock fall areas though? but i mean. up to you lol

[harsh torrent]

To be honest, TGC shouldn't cater to capeless players. Otherwise, we'd never get flying based challenges.

It would be a very interesting challenge, as well as give players more of an intentional to go to Eden more often (and not try to skip it)

[pseudo adder]

imo, theres a difference between not locking out capeless and catering to them though... each to their own tho :3

[harsh torrent]

It's hard to say, because capeless players are willingly locking themselves out of the main mechanics in Sky

[unborn night]

Getting real tired of the game crashing at startup ^^;; I feel like an actual moth bumping against the glass trying to get at the light bulb

[cosmic vine]

this season reminds me so much of shattering... new areal activities, and a good chunk of people crashing for half of the testing

[silk lantern]

Hi!

[rustic zodiac]

A moment of silence for those poor souls in the sky wiki that will have to update like 50% of the cosmetics pages to specify which ones can be dyed

[upper drift]

lmaooo right

[opaque anvil]

can the following outfits be dyed? just curious

• hunter outfit from 9 deer
• sparrow cape
• moth cape

[dense matrix]

None of the above can be dyed

[opaque anvil]

dang alright. do you think that was intentional, or maybe tgc just didnt get around to it?

[slate valve]

Hunter outfit is a clear no since it's from a Collab season, I can't say as to why the other two can't be dyed (cause frankly I'm not sure why in the first place)

[dense matrix]

Collab stuff is definitely intended. The moth/sparrow probably because they are supposed to represent the brown caped moths dying them would take away from that

[upper drift]

my issue is the base game moth cape underside is dyeable so why not accents and undersides on moth & sparrow??

[dense matrix]

All base capes are dyeable on the underside it would be weird to leave the brown one out.

office is only excluded im sure because if it wasnt you could make a fake beta cape.

Its just my personal theory i don’t know why tgc doesn’t allow those to be dyed

[upper drift]

yeag i just don't get why they're excluded from even accents when base game can dye

plus bc actual moths are colorful too

[dense matrix]

I mean the two rainbow capes are also excluded is also strange to me because those would lend themselves to being dyed into some really cool combos.

This is still pretty new and they probably will expand on it in the future just right now we have the basics ig

[silk lantern]

Hi

[upper drift]

i agree, but as we don't have a list of all planned future dyeable outfits too, i still enjoy discussing what could be dyed and how

[dense matrix]

Totally fair, i hope they allow more sections to be dyed with time definitely not me coping for maroon dismiss cape

[upper drift]

omg yes

i think abt that pretty often, it seems a little wishy-washy bc they implement stuff to make it less grindy (chevrons, afk wax locations, event currency) but make it to where you need to grind more (group ts, raising ts prices, etc.) and removed afk wax spots and turned it into social wax spots which i don't really understand much. basically this game feels very against players not actively playing and instead indirectly playing

i see a lot of people refer to cr as "minimum wage job" but sometimes it rlly does feel like that
and ik they need money to pay workers and keep the game afloat but also it feels very unhealthy (and sometimes actually is) due to fomo and whatnot

[cloud ocean]

tangentially related to the economy I haven’t been able to save enough candles since the shattering visit in September, because all the TS coming along are also good… CRs already are quite exhausting so I’m really hoping the dye grind isn’t too bad…

feels like I’m never gonna get the jam station at this rate… sad

[untold junco]

This is not even a new mechanic😭 it’s just burning plants all over again. They said in skyfest they’re planning on adding mini games and I feel like that’s a good opportunity to introduce mini games where the prize would be receiving dyes

Tgc is trying so hard to increase the playtime which is fair but the game is like a less toxic version of DTI that requires endless grind

[alpine jungle]

I get bug 😭😭

[cloud ocean]

I thought we were done with candle items for events but wheeeeee
This is why I don’t want a candle-for-dye feature

[upper drift]

il the playtime is smth they want but even if i like getting dye, it rlly needs to speed up by a lot to be healthy

[finite anchor]

ur so right and the plants take longer to burn than regular ones
also right now dye collecting just feels so slow 😭 like i tried to incorporate it into my cr and every area just takes much longer and it interrupts my cr flow

even if i merge into a server where the plants are all dyed, doing the butterfly emote feels like forever :') and then there's always a butterfly that decided to just ignore me

[upper drift]

i think its. decent? as is, i like the butterfly part bc you aren't just getting wax, ur getting dye stylishly with butterflies but i can easily see it getting crazy repetitive fast
/plus i do like that you can deep call to immediately collect butterflies color

but really the thing that makes it nice is that they made it a little different, even if its fundamentally the same. it makes sense lore-wise, but i think dye plants should burn faster and easier than other darkness plants to make up for it being more added onto normal cr routes and lower time spent running
i also think the dye collection speed/amounts should be increased as this is a QoL feature and should not take hours to do when cr already takes over an hour normally

its enjoyable to me right now to be able to run the realms more and look for plants, but i can see it getting crazy repetitive very fast

[finite anchor]

one thing i'm not that excited about is burning large plants with tons of strangers 😭 where you have to deep-honk because you can't reach the vines with your candle
it's just gonna be a lot of white flashing on my screen. i already find it annoying in the 8 player puzzle area

[untold junco]

Real it makes me feel that the dyes aren’t really worth all time time they require the moment I learnt some dyes are rare i just knew the system is really bad

[upper drift]

like it feels sooo refreshing to make an outfit look nice with dyes but then i think abt going back when i run out and idk i just. don't want to rlly, its decent rn but like i cannot imagine moths trying to get dyes and not knowing much abt the game already and it being so grindy

• beta has sped up collection rates

[upper drift]

but tbh yea white dyes and black dyes really don't feel very worth running 3 hours or more trying to get 😔 depending on if ur lucky even

[finite anchor]

i wouldn't mind if black and white were a tiny 🤏 bit less common but they are way too rare rn
hoping we get another quest that creates more of a balance between the different dyes. like making black and white more common in different realms or areas idk

[untold junco]

Tgc add something new without making it a long term challenge go (impossible)

[upper drift]

i mentioned it hours ago but like ik they want it to have replayability (as in you want to go and collect dyes for stuff) but to make it another grindfest is absurd, its not another in-game currency its just a cosmetic overhaul

i think its great for a variety of things, such as

• its a new mechanic and one many players will love
• it offers more things to do in sky
• it gives older players something to do, and newer players something to look forward to
  but the current implementation could still use work imo, i believe that it would benefit from maybe a 45% increase in collection speed for dyes, as well as more available options for dyes that follow common cr routes + maybe a 15% plant burn speed increase to allow for quicker collection as butterflies might not be interested in sitting on your hand (they want to stay colorful )
  many players have jobs, school, and other activities that make grinding long times in games difficult, especially if they play more than sky (likely)

there's also the fact that outfits in the current beta version can take up to 4 jars of dye to color, and there are a lot of outfits available in sky. it should feel rewarding, but not grindy to get a full outfit dyed (and im fully excluding season quests bc in live, it'll be a very long while until you can get those one of each dyes)

sorry for eating up chat with a text wall lol

lol dw i have multiple times over the updates to beta

[untold junco]

Tbh dyes haunting would be fun to do but again they r not necessary and I don’t have the time for that😭 There should at least be a lot of dyes in the very visited areas like the first area in daylight prairie (which literally everyone visits) and not prairie peaks…

[upper drift]

i can't even see a lot of the dyes in gw half the time squinting at my screen trying to find it in that big map lmao

[untold junco]

And also adding dyes that matches the places of the daily quest would be cool make me go to prairie peaks for a daily quest but also add a dye plant w it there and also for the rainbow in forgotten arc

[upper drift]

also maybe have spell slots give a random dye when unlocked, and i remember earlier someone suggested a free two random dyes like every day

[finite anchor]

adding dye plants to prairie peaks seems like such a weird decision too
like it was always a place without any wax and it's all about the scenery, but now they're adding the grind™ to it?

[tiny lintel]

Basically, implementing yet another long farming system won't be fun for the players

[upper drift]

gotta love the grind™ its the main thing to do in sky for a lot of players

[lavish matrix]

I don't understand why, a feature what will always be available 24/7 and not limited time is considered a "grind" sure I know you really want to dye a cosmetic but treating it as an extra "grind" really skews your perspective to it as something negative. I see it as an additional variety to gameplay option. Though I'd support increasing the wax rate and good dye cap to ensure its replayability

Adding candle > dye conversion option will instead make it even more grindy as it uses up your actual candle reserves so I don't support that idea. Random free dye 2x per week in the spell shop would be perfect because 1) it's still limiting to ensure that it's fair for overall playerbase and 2) accessible

I've seen people "grinding" to buy out nesting items and I'm like ...nesting won't be gone anytime soon right? Sure rotations are a thing but they will always come back eventually and now there's a permanent furniture roster so I don't think anyone should just push themselves out to get stuff as quickly when it's not going away anytime soon unlike TS, events etc

Just make dyes their own thing, separate from candle reserves and will always remain available to obtain 24/7 and have a good and healthy forge rate with good cap I'll support that

It's still awesome to see more items becoming permanent in the whole game, which definitely relives all the induced pressures on your own or by peers to get everything asap. Even accessible for moths to explore the options on what to get

Also you get to preview the dyes too, which is much better than the TS system where you'll only know what it actually feels like after buying the items

This way you can healthily decide and make plan for the outfit dyes you want to get

[lofty spade]

It would be cool if we can use the dyes to dye the hair too, whitout needing to wait 1 year to get the hair dyes in the days of rainbows

[lavish matrix]

White hair has pretty been much a core identity of Sky

[lofty spade]

I mean, not to the full hair, but imagine, you buyed the days of nature hair, and you want to dye the blue part with another color, it would be interesting

[lavish matrix]

Yeah just the accents seems to be doable

[hidden geyser]

spiky cape is gone again?!?
+nvm i found

[untold junco]

Music? Yeah but gradient #beta-screenshots-videos message

[upper drift]

i mean it is still grinding even if not always negative, but beta speeds are intended to be faster than live will be so with how it is rn it really is just very grindy

[lavish matrix]

Yeah true, that's why I mentioned it having a better rate in live would be sufficing

[upper drift]

true ‼️ also sorry if i make no sense rn its 7:30am and i haven't slept

[lavish matrix]

PLS SLEP

[hidden geyser]

which realm have white dye??

[upper drift]

basically i just hope this doesn't end up as a crazy amount of grinding tho lol, not that i think it will absolutely be one (even though it's likely 😔)

i already struggle with daily cr

[boreal grove]

Prairie, forest and a bit in windpaths

[hidden geyser]

i think they should lower the amount of wax to create one dye similar to seasonal candle

[finite anchor]

real
also having another "currency" to collect might get a bit difficult for players with limited play time

like if you already struggle to get enough candles to get everything you want (but also want to dye your cosmetics) you either have to sacrifice some of your candle running time to collect dye, or you just don't collect any.
dye is another thing added to the daily collection list and it's getting kind of difficult trying to juggle them all :')

[hidden geyser]

lets just make dyes buyable by candle

[rigid kayak]

Maybe it's just me but I don't mind having to go out of my way to collect dyes. A lot of players have been asking to have a new feature and something else to do besides candle runs in the game, and I feel like this feature not only gives players something else to do, but also encourages to explore other parts of the realms that don't get touched often. The cosmetics we have will always be available and dyes won't be going anywhere either. I do think that it needs polishing but we are also in early testing as well.

[finite anchor]

idk personally it's just not really something new to do, but rather the same old plant burning but for a different reward
I'm glad they sped it up a little compared to the first build but it still feels kind of slow to me, especially considering that dye collection is gonna be slower in live than in beta

[hazy crescent]

The thing is, collecting dye in beta is already accelerated yet it’s still a chore to get dye, and with the amount of cosmetics we have in game it just seems unreasonable to expect a player to roam every nook and cranny for a minuscule amount of dye per day

So I’m all for giving players the option to flat out buy dyes but also keep the current method for those who don’t want to buy dyes

[rare seal]

For me it's the opposite, I would like there to be dye in areas where no one ever goes because there really is nothing to do, there would no longer be abandoned places

[high atlas]

That's where I'm at too! I personally like being given a reason to visit areas I don't normally go to! Though I do think it shouldn't be slower than it is currently for live.

[lavish matrix]

I very much agree to this. Adding candle to dyes option would make it less an incentive to go to the unexplored realms to get the materials. Moreover, dyes are just an option on what we can do in the game similar how we choose to do shards or eden etc

I believe candles to dyes option would make it more stressful on your candle savings. Keeping dyeing its own mechanic would actually give variety to Sky gameplay. Not everyone would want to stick with candle running every day just to save enough to buy dyes as well

[rich silo]

beta does have a smaller population of players, live would have the caveat of being more likely to merge and 💥 butterflies auto collect

but I agree like, when EC came out and in the long time since, it's added to gameplay time and it feels kinda tiring
dye collection adds to the fatigue

[finite anchor]

yeah merges are gonna be helpful but even when the plants are already burned I feel like the butterflies slow me down 😔 like I can't just keep flying, I have to stop to do the emote (deep-honking also works but it feels less "accurate"?) and it disrupts the cr flow

before we only really had candles and seasonal candles to focus on, now more stuff keeps getting added. and it's not like candle prices were reduced so that we could spend more time on other daily tasks :')

[rich silo]

no you can fly through them with glide and they collect the same way
the thing I wonder is like, if you're with friends can they also collect

[lavish matrix]

I'm thinking of planning your daily cr, and if you have time you can decide to dye run every other day. The dyes won't just be ✨️poof✨️ anytime soon so do it on your own pace

I think the stress with EC has to do with you know limited run items

[finite anchor]

I think so
I noticed when a stranger collects them they also get added for me

[rich silo]

like
piggyback/handhold

I was with sokai near some plants and she reported not collecting any even though I got em, I could see them and she couldn't

[finite anchor]

huh that's weird
I mean if they get added from when a stranger collects them then it definitely should work for friends 🤔

[lavish matrix]

Currently the plants seem to be client side. Like when shards were bugged

[humble crown]

Seeing pictures of how the jelly pants dye all the way from waste to feet together. They're not cargo pants. they're fishing waders without the suspenders

[rich silo]

I do like the shift to the new EC system though
EC wax just instantly collecting as individual ticket mega clusters is 👏

[orchid knot]

I think it's that client side plants are different thing, sometimes strangers collected butterflies from across the map and it would register for me but other times it doesn't

[lavish matrix]

I genuinely don't think dyeing the whole thing is a good idea 😭

[humble crown]

The "leggings" should absolutely be separated

[rich silo]

it just looks like someone dropped em in a bucket of bleach ngl

[orchid knot]

I was about to say good news I didn't crash I can go check the honk bug thing from yesterday but I did in fact crash

[lavish matrix]

BLEACHED FEET

[humble crown]

[lavish matrix]

And I'm seeing it as a vanilla ice cream stick help

[orchid knot]

Let me iiiiiiiiiiin

[lavish matrix]

jailed

[orchid knot]

Omg went aurora concert and thought I was free but it's about to start gotta run fast

OH NO THE CLAPPING WHY DID I STOP TO LIGHT CANDLES LET ME OOOOOOUT

[rich silo]

BUBBAAAAAAA

[lavish matrix]

can you use 9cd cape to escape lmao

[orchid knot]

Naw I just have to wait for defrost cutscene to finish and then I think I can go home

[lavish matrix]

defrosting aurora

[orchid knot]

gonna ask aurora to give me dye NOOOOOO IM IN THE CONCERT

[lavish matrix]

Enjoy the concert ig

[orchid knot]

okay maybe I'll stay for exhale inhale

lemme dye your pants purple aurora it's all I ask

Ayo somebody else is here hello aurora friend I shall leave you now

[solar lark]

Can you check if the concert timer is every 2 hours in beta as well after it ends?

[junior coral]

Anyone else get their dyed clothes bugged? I dyed some stuff yesterday and when I logged in it was reset

[hearty wigeon]

I can’t wait until we can use the dye to make cosplays of characters from other games in Sky!

[rich silo]

can't wait for fit req channel to explode

[orchid knot]

Yeah it is

[solar lark]

So seems intentional then

[orchid knot]

What if Aurora THREE

Good news, I finally checked the honk vine bug I had last update and it works for me too from the call menu!

[high atlas]

Yay that's great!!

[vague grail]

I was hoping I could bring my baby from jail (the light blue aurora ult pants)

[orchid knot]

I've had such a great dye run today, so many big plants and lots of butterflies!!

[high atlas]

I really like farming in flight area cuz its lots of big plants and is a mixture of all colors. But it also makes sense lore-wise since its connected to all realms to have all colors

[orchid knot]

I haven't even been to windpaths yet, just prairie, forest, and wasteland but I've gotten about 2 or 3 jars of each colour (-b/w)

Like one full one of each has given me so much, have they upped the collection rate again or did I just get lucky with the big plants rotations cause whew!

But also flight being connected to each realm and giving a variety of dye really is cool, you're so right Luci, especially about the lore aspect!!

[safe obsidian]

The ult mask gives me Hathor vibes, like how the prophecy ult is Anubis

[high atlas]

Oh my gosh i just got so many today in sunny forest it was nice

[orchid knot]

the dye I liked the other day doesn't look the same now :(

[cosmic vine]

chat who do you think the fourth grat spirit would be

[unborn night]

So uh, I managed to get a bit more time before crashing today and went to the closets, and after changing out of the seasonal cosmetics I've stopped crashing for now.

Not sure if this is a correlation not causation thing but I've got friends saying the same thing

[golden ore]

please let it be sassy

[cosmic vine]

my vote is for dismiss to keep everyone's body type consistent

[high atlas]

I think for some yeah. Mine doesn’t seem to correlate with what I wear at all.

But if you are finding that the cosmetics are causing crashes, it is definitely worth it to bug report!

[hushed charm]

What if theres no 4th spirit since we only got 3 emotes

[golden ore]

There's a third emote?

[hushed charm]

Not yet but incoming according to patchnotes right

[grizzled lichen]

What if the fourth is a stance or a call

[solar lark]

What if it's a new praying emote?

[ionic pendant]

Ooh, fingers crossed for a stance or call. ^_^

[golden ore]

sassy stance 2.0

[high atlas]

Maybe it'll be a new butterfly charmer emote

[upper drift]

i dyed & logged in to normal clothes, but when i looked in my closet the presets were still there so i could just change back

[north marten]

Do other people see your dyed outfit? Or am I just unlucky and have never come across anyone wearing anything dyed?

[modest wraith]

ahem
hello

[grizzled lichen]

Time to scare the moths

[sharp dagger]

I've seen other people's color palettes when playing, so it might be an unlucky streak for you not having seen anyone yet.

[north marten]

That's a relief!

[somber oyster]

Have you guys tried running for dyes with friends?

I met someone in GW who took me along but we are on completely different rotations so we can’t really run for dyes together. Kinda annoying!

[high atlas]

Went with Jaws once a couple builds back and it was the same issue

It was to only one area, but she still had a separate rotation from me

[balmy tapir]

My least favourite thing is ppl stealing butterflies

If I see another pair with the one piggied doing butterfly emote, I swear to god

[north marten]

It looks like stealing but I noticed it looks like I still collect the color even if the butterflies all land on the other skykid.

It does feel a bit silly though to do the pose and then watch all the butterflies choose someone else, even if I do still get the color in the end.

[balmy tapir]

Well, no, because butterflies follow someone else throughout the whole map and I get nothing and have to reset the map if I want them

[slate valve]

Can you deep honk to steal then back

[north marten]

Pay attention to the jar icons, they still fill up even if the butterflies land on someone else.

If you're truly not getting anything then that sounds like a good bug report or piece of feedback, I can't imagine competition like that is intended.

[balmy tapir]

They follow someone else and don't truly land bc the person is moving, you can't do anything about it

[north marten]

Ouch that does sound bad. Especially since piggyback will surely be exploited in Live. Definitely make that issue known if you haven't yet.

[balmy tapir]

I ran after someone like that in forest first area until they exited the map, then butterflies got yeeted into their original locations presumably but ended up just disappearing

[somber oyster]

Aw noooo that sucks, because piggied people don’t even need to do the butterfly emote 😭

It automatically collects if the uber does the emote

[balmy tapir]

Idk if it even does anything for them bc they may as well be on different rotations, nor they stop long enough for it to collect

[somber oyster]

that’s so evil 😭 dye thieves

[balmy tapir]

Me, watching fully colored butterflies flying away into the distance

[opaque anvil]

they could expand on that ice fishing thing in the village perhaps.. more varied dye acquisition method the better

or better yet give us a rod and tackle so we can fish in other regions too!

[lavish matrix]

Colourful fishes

[modest wraith]

- Come here butterflies pls
- ...ew

[cloud ocean]

- pspspspspspsps
- bye

[north marten]

Thankful that beta chat is so calm and peaceful at the moment, compared to the rest of the server.

[zealous charm]

Cy and I noticed this the other day on our way to the Ark shard, I did shoot it into feedback after we (didn’t) complete the shard in case it’s some really weird intentional feature

[sullen arrow]

@spiral lodge We gotta send them Feedback on that.

[hidden basalt]

Hello all beta testers

[delicate echo]

I have always noticed others burning air and honking and figured that we have different rotation since they also didn't help in the one I'm burning

[amber python]

Yea but I saw someone using them

[tidal willow]

I ran with my partner and they weren't seeing the same plants as I was, although at some point after we split up we were seeing similar rotations? And at times after reentering 1 area it would switch up the positions ever so slightly of the plants. So my guess is the rotation is client side and is random hence why we can't run together half the time

It's basically same issue as what we had with shards before

Same is happening for my alt. Can’t burn them together. In some locations the plants are synched though

[nocturne blade]

I’m having this issue with my partner too, we keep having de-synced plants and it makes it hard for us to try to run together 😔

[ember hull]

#beta-screenshots-videos message woah the shape of the wings are so good
White boots

[hazy venture]

Hold on. Wasn't this season supposed to be about the two embers animation?

I swear didn't tgc say after duets it was gonna be moomin and then a season about the 2 embers

[grizzled lichen]

Not quite, just that two embers seasons will be in 2025

[brittle star]

do the plants reset with normal reset or can I always find them by re-entering the map?

[tidal willow]

I am unsure but there have been times when i reenter an area and theres suddenly a new plant to burn, so give it a go and see what you get !
but they do reset with daily reset too

[trail notch]

Hehe. This season gives me a lot of inspiration to draw Sky again

[pseudo adder]

me and my friends thought so too TwT i remember talking about it with quite a few of them, but now they cant find where it was explicitly mentioned that after moomin it would be 2emb seasons. it makes me wonder if we all had a misconception/assumed too optimistically or if the information was given out and then later corrected

[barren wave]

can you dye the things from moomin season?

[grizzled lichen]

Nope, not a single collab item can be dyed

[barren wave]

ty!

[limber merlin]

When is the next beta invite for IOS?

Because they only posted for PC back in summer::

[orchid knot]

We don't know in advance but I see you have the invite ping role so next time they open up beta invites you'll be notified

[upper drift]

iirc it was revealed to be coming, but it was never a guarantee to be the next season after moomin; i saw someone else mention that two embers is going to be a 2025 season, not that it would be the first 2025 season but i hope its soon lol i wanna know....

[dire sparrow]

Managed to find 8 giant dye plants in 2 back to back prarie runs today granted half were bc of the hourly rollover but still

[high atlas]

Hourly rollover?

[dire sparrow]

Just a personal guess but Ive noticed it looks like they change it up/new plants spawn every hour!
(Could be just the accellerated rate of collection tho for beta)

[high atlas]

Oh interesting. I have noticed they do respawn every once in a while/change locations. I'll look out for it being every hour

[somber oyster]

Today I went running for dyes and everyone in the server had a different rotation 🤣. It was a whole adventure, gotta remind myself to send a bug report about that tomorrow because most plants definitely didn’t burn

[dire sparrow]

By the way @glass junco thank you so much for the surprise giftart?!?!?! 😭 i love it so much, you have such a nice style, the way you painted everything looks so good!!!! Thank you I’m so honored!!

[opaque anvil]

so what are the documented methods of dye gathering thus far? are there some variations besides burning differently shaped plants and stuff?

[icy dagger]

Which spirit has the past days of fortune iaps in the beta?

[high atlas]

Right now it's just burning plants yeah. But if you want to see other methods, definitely feedback it!

[golden ore]

The ones in the aviary event hut but DoF stuff are not fully out yet.

[icy dagger]

Tyyyy

[orchid knot]

I was just about to say imagine having a lil light creature buddy who brings you ingredients randomly because they're bestest light pupper but then my brain was like what if you get a krill and wring them out and it gives you black dye

[golden ore]

i suggested we can pick up krill bits in graveyard to grind for black dye

[orchid knot]

oh good I'm not the only "krills are dipped in dye" player although now I'm picturing using them as a calligraphy brush and I doubt you had that in mind

[high atlas]

Collect all the dusties that come off the krill-

Oh wait ash just said that lmao

[orchid knot]

new krill dodge game except you go in with big rags and you swoop across them and then squeeze the rags into a jar

[high atlas]

Oh also question, am I allowed to ask other beta players to share one of their outfits so I can draw it? Or does that fall under outfit requesting?

[dire sparrow]

My non-moderator two cents opinion feels like thats fine since its not really a personal outfit request preview

[high atlas]

Oh wonderful! I have been wanting to since everyone has cool outfits, but I can also put a thingy in #contact-the-mods to double check!

[orchid knot]

I'd assume it's okay, but maybe double check with mods - it might be better to just pspsps someone you've seen an outfit of you enjoy and ask them directly, if that makes sense?

Although I've also seen some surprise arts the last couple of days, so I think anybody would be flattered to see Luci arts too

[high atlas]

Beta has made me come out of art block. I've drawn mine twice but I wanna doodle other sky kiddos. If it's a no, maybe I'll just pick random outfits and draw them as a surprise

[orchid knot]

#beta-screenshots-videos message omg I wonder if this means we could run around with triumph torch and burn the vines that way

[vapid fossil]

i use tournament torch to burn the vines so i can avoid using deep call

[golden ore]

ngl i enjoy coming across the pigment plants, i feel like a moth who found something new while exploring

[orchid knot]

I just tested this and it's so fast too???

[glass junco]

No problem! I had the sudden rush of motivation seeing your image. I'm a big fan of warm tones especially if they're nicely contrasted and I wanted to act on it ig

[orchid knot]

Omg wait today is rainbow day in forest brook, it made me think what if pot of dye at the end of the rainbow

[velvet ginkgo]

Cool idea. It would be in addition to the candles and provide all the colours. Maybe one of each. Oh that wasn't the rainbow quest you were talking about. Oops

[orchid knot]

#beta-screenshots-videos message ripperoni, posting this made my app close itself, goodbye floating plant

[orchid knot]

Ohh I did leave feedback for admire rainbow quests to be like that too though it would be cute! But this rainbow that appears at a certain day in forest brook would also be wonderful to have more dye there

[north marten]

If you restart your game again, you may be able to land back in the same server(?) the giant plant was in. I crashed due to a giant plant and thought I lost it when I restarted the game and went back to the area only to find out it was gone. But after restarting again after that, I discovered I landed back in the same server or room the giant plant was in!

It seems like there are two alternate states for the plants in each area, I've been able to swap between them at the moment by restarting the game. (I believe the two states is a bug, but right now it's been helpful for farming! )

[orchid knot]

I don't think I have luck anymore my game keeps crashing when I try to leave my nest I'll try to find the plant again later but thank you this is helpful!

[opaque anvil]

so I've been watching some raccoon videos on youtube because iunno and I think it would be an interesting mechanic to have you pick fruits or mushrooms which you then bring to a nearby water source and wash to acquire the dye. iunno I just want something besides burning plants again lol

[cloud ocean]

Kinda late to this convo topic but I’ve also been saving outfits from the beta channels to draw at… some point in the future! I need to go back to check the og image posters tho haha

[high atlas]

Well I haven't heard from a mod yet. But I'll definitely let people know what they say. Cuz I really do love seeing how creative everyone is

[tulip veldt]

boy the torch really is the op farming item huh

[orchid knot]

truly, the only thing is it doesn’t stay lit in the rain

[high atlas]

What if you have a friend who has a brella? Does it stay lit under the brella?

[orchid knot]

I’ve never tried but we absolutely should test this, I can’t get on rn again cause ipad go sleep but we could try tomorrow?

[high atlas]

Yes! I'm off work tomorrow, I can probably log in after 11 am est! Just ping me!

[ember hull]

May or may not be the same in beta, but in live, if I carry the snowboard and candle then I can hold the torch and candle at the same time too

Probably a bug that it feels like only I noticed
Ooh one bug report two months ago

[fiery shadow]

do we know how much the final moomin tier rewards cost?

[high atlas]

Unfortunately not. Beta doesn't know prices in advance, so your best bet is to wait until it's announced in #news

[sinful sail]

Can anyone else still not able to play without crashing after the first few seconds? :(

[high atlas]

Yeah it's still a known issue for beta right now D: but hopefully next build it'll be fixed!

[sinful sail]

Ok thank u! I felt like I was the only one 🙂‍↕️

[upper drift]

im still salty abt it 😔 it can do all that but the lantern was considered OP for lighting candles
give it back lighting candles while held

i hope we will see other expected dyeable outfits before the seasom reaches live (but i don't expect it anytime soon tbh)

[pseudo adder]

yes

i used torch+brella piggy duo combo in live until they removed granny shared spaces and mischief cauldron become non negotiable (sigh)

[upper drift]

😔 that's sad i hope the auto burn comes to live permanently

[high atlas]

Oh interesting. Thank you!

Okay so I did see that plants seem to refresh, since at least i did them a few hours ago. But my large plants didn’t reset. Only the tiny ones

[orchid knot]

Have you noticed there’s so many tiny ones dotted around now? Like every time I thought I was finished an area earlier I’d spot a small bundle of them

[high atlas]

Actually its the same amount. Theyre in the same spots as earlier

Wait thats just pot caves. Prairie village is different

[frosty arch]

Anyone on android, how do you solve the crashing issue?

[mental saddle]

when we can dye our capes is it for free or will it cost Candle

[hearty wigeon]

@clever crypt #beta-screenshots-videos message
How do you get it in your hand tho?

[clever crypt]

Olympic Torch prop is holdable. except the Assembly torch one

[karmic onyx]

Hi. Is purple one of the dye colors for the radiance season?

[ionic pendant]

Kinda sorta, you can definitely make some different purples with the dyes. The one that gets purple butterflies looks pretty pink on its own though. ^_^

[karmic onyx]

Okay thank you!

[golden ore]

Neither, you have to gather dye from colored plants in the realm.

[proven patrol]

where can i find spirit emotes and cosmetics in this new season?

[upper drift]

beta testers are given everything in the shop menu for testing purposes, and emotes are behind the first quest

[proven patrol]

what are the seasonal candles for?

[fickle bobcat]

To replace your candle run you would do in live.

You can get over 1000 candles in a season and they convert to white candles at the end. So it's a good way to stock up on candles without wasting time in CR.

Anyone experience frequent crashing and managed a fix?
I don't think it's the game, I think it's my phone. I've tried clearing cache and data and it gives me more time before the inevitable crash.

[plain owl]

Then you don't have seasonal stuff. What's the point of that? If you don't care about stuff, then also you don't need to do cr too...

[golden ore]

testers recently started getting the cosmetics as a bundle in the candle shop instead of spending time to grind for them so we can test them out asap.

[sharp dagger]

Depends on where you're starting from. I know on my end, I'm starting from my nest and the only way I've solved crashing when trying to leave it is to not be wearing shoe/any of the new cosmetics when I first load the game up.

Something seems to be buggy with all shoes in general in recent builds. And the game seems to be having a fit trying to remember the color swatches of the new season cosmetic items you had set the last time you played. The old outfits have been doing fine, though.

[frail tundra]

GIYS HEAR ME OUT!!!!

FRYE COSPLAY

[split oyster]

Man beta keep crashing when I'm logging in, can't play the new season

[rare seal]

emotes are earned by doing the Quest #1. Like cosmetics being in a bundle, it's simply for testing purposes

[north geyser]

i thought we can dye hair because I've been really missing out on beta

[solar patio]

maybe you can try out some DoC spells

[north geyser]

im really lost on these new quests cuz i have no idea where the second color is

[orchid knot]

The quest should give you a prompt that directs you to the realm, if you're struggling please leave feedback!

[north geyser]

ah i found it on the caves

do i need to really fill the dye gauge to continue the quest or just simply finding it will work

[grizzled lichen]

Frye cosplay? how

[rotund ember]

Same here

[north geyser]

guys where do i get the white dye?

[hazy moss]

forest

[high atlas]

Prairie also occasionally has some too!

It's very little in both places though. It's mostly the main colors, and then occasional white dye as well.

[analog crater]

@short kiln @distant tree TY! 🩷 I am going to try

[boreal grove]

Prairie, forest and some on windpaths

[high atlas]

Good luck on your drawing endeavors! If the art is finished before days of Feast is in live, feel free to share finished product with us! Beta testers are also art enjoyers

[random jungle]

is there a list of the new season cosmetics anywhere?

[grizzled lichen]

Search for potato beta log in #beta-screenshots-videos

[random jungle]

thank you!

[fickle bobcat]

Oh gosh that might be why I got to play for like 30 minutes when I finally get it not to crash when the new season started ... But now I just gotta make it far enough to get to the closet (I'm in old home) and hope it stops crashing when I mothify.

[tulip veldt]

what happens if theres a big plant when you do a passage quest?

[silent dirge]

That's a great question honestly, but I assume it just works the same way regular wax plants works since if you haven't burn it before launching the Passage Quests, the dark plants are burnable and gives wax just normally

[tulip veldt]

i only thought of that after i did all the places where that would be

[somber oyster]

I’m gonna check

[dark basin]

Are rhythm pants missing in beta? I just went to go change in to one of my favorite pair of pants and they're all missing??!!

[somber oyster]

Check the third “tab” in the pants closet!

[dark basin]

First time noticing this change, thank you

[somber oyster]

okay so there’s dye plants in the passage quests too yes

But the butterflies don’t lift us up

[tulip veldt]

huh....i wonder if that will be wildly distracting somehow 🙂

[frail tundra]

Bun hair, either base game, duet, or halloween
The new pants!!
Princess cape

[upper drift]

splatoon collab to get squid and octopus ear accessories when? bc i want that

[grizzled lichen]

Gonna see if I can make it when the pants arrive in live

[spiral needle]

[somber oyster]

We started testing this season almost 2 weeks ago and today I was able to forge my first black dye jar 😭

[ionic pendant]

Good luck collecting the white dye for Frye's pants in a timely manner. ^_^;

[upper drift]

fr 😔 i still don't have a jar of white

[haughty plume]

I have been grinding very hard and so far I’ve been averaging just under one jar of white a day since the latest update (before that I took advantage of something and got like five in a day lmao)

[uncut ginkgo]

Black jar is taking forever to fill

[solemn bramble]

Hello! Trying to run around the realms but where can you find like more black and white dye plants? Only managed to forge 1 white and my black dye is still half candle

[digital turret]

Hey everyone, does anyone know of the feathered Halloween crow cape or the bear fur cape is colour customisable?

[frail merlin]

theyre not customizable

[high atlas]

@marsh orbit replying here! The peach color is using yellow as base, and purple as the secondary
The lavender is cyan as base and red as secondary!

[marsh orbit]

thank you!! i love color theory hehe

[high atlas]

So funny how it works hahaha

[marsh orbit]

exactly!! it's always a surprise, a good or a bad one.

[cloud ocean]

Oh, yeah - Luci have you heard back from the mods about the beta outfits thing?

[high atlas]

I haven't yet unfortunately! Hopefully I'll get a response soon though. They may be busy

[cloud ocean]

Yeah.. oh well. Just gotta wait a little longer then. Thanks!

[high atlas]

Okay I got a response from Sof, she says it's fine! But try to limit it since we don't want it to become an outfit showing!

We can also ask here in this chat too!

[cloud ocean]

Fun! Thanks Sof!

[icy dagger]

Does anyone know which realm is good to farm white dye in 👉👈

[cloud ocean]

I think white dye is rare and random across the realms rn?

[high atlas]

Well so far, white dye is found in prairie and forest. But it isn't a lot of dye. So it takes time to collect

[icy dagger]

Ooo so like black dye? OK thank you !!

[high atlas]

Yup! Same as black dye!! Good luck dye hunting, Xav!

[cloud ocean]

Anyways - this is my open drawing request for dyed outfits. I’ll only take 1 at a time so just tag me on #beta-screenshots-videos with a pic of your outfit

[high atlas]

Oh! Sof also said try to limit to 1 at a time!
Sorry should have been clearer

[cloud ocean]

Oh ok - makes sense

[high atlas]

Okay well I'll also accept 1 beta tester's favorite new dyed outfit to draw! Feel free to DM me the outfit or ping me in the screenshot channel! though I'm busy with school and work so it may take a couple days to finish!!

[weary star]

Hey, where can we get the ult cape from season of radiance 🫣

[high atlas]

We actually don't know what the ult cape is yet. But any cosmetics for Radiance are available in the shop as bundles!

[weary star]

I cannot see where to take the ult items from new season urghh

[golden ore]

check the candle shop? that's where we been getting the cosmetics before the spirit trees are setup.
settings > shop

[weary star]

Oh I havent check that yet, thank you!!

[umbral crown]

Hello! Non-beta player here. I was wondering what the next season is about I’m seeing stuff about dye here?

Sorry if this isn’t the right channel to ask in

[solar lark]

Gotta pay the beta toll

We can dye cosmetics

[umbral crown]

The what 💧

Ooh nice :0 is it all cosmetics or just the seasonal ones?

[solar lark]

A lot of it currently, none of the collab stuff including spirit stuff

[umbral crown]

Ohh nice thanks

[solar lark]

You can read through #beta-announcements and look through #beta-screenshots-videos

[opaque anvil]

is brown dye difficult to acquire? I happen to like moth-themed outfits lol

[rigid kayak]

oouf, they for sure need to increase the black and white at least a little bit more. i understand wanting more rare dyes but i don't think it should take forever.

[velvet ginkgo]

I got too carried away last week on the idea of whether the colour model/space was additive or subtractive (rgb or cmyk/ryb) cause there was evidence of both.

My mind came to the conclusion that "it's a subtractive method being taught in additve language because sky kids think of light as being absorbed or emmited with the closest thing to reflection being "re-emitting light that is absorbed" kinda like synapses and neurotransmitters" all cause I took the approach of "who's teaching the sky kids to dye clothes in the first place? Oh the spirits, they need to help sky kids understand the medium in a way that makes sense to the ones being taught in the first place."

[shell fossil]

Hey everyone! Cross posting for this:
#beta-announcements message

☝️ Tldr, we'd like to ask your feedback about this. Once you've read the post, please take a moment to let us know your experience!

[rich silo]

I think I've sent feedback about it before
v1 is better for UX, v2 is better visually with the jars

[vale temple]

Crazy this is exactly what I just said in feedback. 2x2 felt more intuitive to the fact I was mixing colors and let me see the ones being combined side by side, but I liked the jar icons and wanted those in the 2x2 😮

[golden ore]

i would if i'd stop cras-
crashes

[rich silo]

v2 is just really annoying to have to keep going back and forth between primary and secondary colours just let me randomly button mash and experiment

tbh I also liked how there were the little
there was the little bar at the bottom that told you how many dyes your order would take

[spiral needle]

Worry no more, for your gallant bot in a shining white cape has arrived! Tis I, Skybot! I am here!

[cerulean raven]

Are any of the flower crowns dyeable? Like the days of love one? Probably not the moomin one as it’s a collab item

[rich silo]

none of the accessory items except radiance seasonal are dyeable rn

[steep quail]

…hey wait, we should send in feedback about chibi being dyeable since you can’t change the mask without losing the effect, it would be nice to at least give it different colors. Would make for some extra unique options too

[rich silo]

it is dyeable though
you can change the forehead orange diamond paint colour

[cerulean raven]

I believe it may be the base color that they’re referring to

[hidden ridge]

The beta version frequently crashes when running on my device. Has anyone encountered the same problem as me?

This does not solve my problem. My native language is Simplified Chinese. I tried to report the problem, but I couldn't find a place to fill in the form. I am very willing to contribute the error log because I urgently hope to solve the crash bug in the next version, which prevents me from playing the game normally.

[vale temple]

What device do you play beta on?

Ah nevermind, I see android.

#beta-bugs-android

you can fill a bug a report here press the little flame button

[hidden ridge]

Thank you for your concern. I usually play on Android because it has no regional restrictions. I can only play on CN servers on other devices, so I encountered an error on Android.

[vale temple]

I also experience crashing for days now. If you go to #beta-bugs-android you can fill a report out for it.

The developers are aware that multiple people in beta for both iOS and Android are suffering from this bug. They might be busy since the live version was experiencing a lot of bugs today too. Hopefully we get a solution in the next update.

[hidden ridge]

🥹Is there any other way? My country and region do not allow the use of Discord, so I may not be able to provide feedback in time. Because I need to upload attachments, my network environment is not good.

[hidden ridge]

Do you know any more clues?

[vale temple]

Oh I see! I don't know of a way other than that since the game keeps crashing... I think in game you can do a support ticket, but since the game is crashing it's impossible

It seems like we just have to wait. I know it's upsetting. I want to play the season soon too.

[upper drift]

sorry beta feedback for the umpteenth text wall sent with another 4 to 5 paragraphs

i lied it was about six paragraphs

i do really like being able to see how much of a dye you have left on the dye selection UI, as well as it being the jars over being the colors (specifically because the jar version could help colorblind players know what they're choosing, even if just a little) but i prefer the dual scroll version of the UI in practice compared to the grid UI since its faster (more efficient) and (personally) easier to navigate ((yes i put most of this in feedback, i just forgot the part about seeing the amount of dyes owned in the selection UI lol))

[balmy tapir]

They could put symbols from the jars on the colors to make it easier
I otherwise don't really see an advantage to selecting jars over colors, you already have the text that says how much something will cost and all your jars in the corner of the screen

[olive prairie]

Hello there Beta testers. Does anyone have information as to if the Marching Band outfit can be dyed next season and what parts are dyed? Thank you!

[upper drift]

i think the big thing abt the jars is that it has the symbols so yes, i think having the circles with the marking on it would work very well too.
however, i think that just because it states in the corner the cost of something does not take away from the fact that it is helpful to see how much of something you currently own near the color itself, and i think that part of the 3x3 grid UI is very valuable to players who might not keep constant tabs on amount owned or might forget amount owned of dyes, thus i think it is very good for overall quality of life design for the UI for players
/plus i didn't always notice the bottom corner stuff showing owned amt lolol

[slate valve]

They can be dyed, only the parts above the shoes tho

[olive prairie]

So by the parts above the shoes you mean the little stripes? or the whole outfit above the shoes?

[balmy tapir]

And I never looked at the numbers when selecting dyes bc I only looked at the overall cost at the bottom and my full amounts bc I want to look through and test how the colors look quickly

[slate valve]

Like so #beta-screenshots-videos message

Poor description on my part tbh, sorry about that!

[olive prairie]

Ahh I see what you mean! Thank you!! I really hope that they change it slightly so the top can be dyed as well!! It's a nice outfit, its just very very bright and shiny 😭🙏

[upper drift]

thats fair tbh i do that too if i don't plan on dyeing anything
but when actually going to dye something it might be nice to know how much you own as well as the cost, yk? of course it still might not be something you care much about, but it could still be helpful to other players regardless

plus i bet there's others like me who didn't notice the corner showing everything lol
thus i like being able to see it up in the front (but not too in the way so its not too visually noisy) since i always forgot it's in the corner or just missed it entirely 😭

basically i believe having the design of the colors on the 3x3 grid is very helpful, though i prefer the practicality of the dual-scrolling more than the grid
the symbols for the colors are the main thing i vouch for on grid, but i like the numbers showing amount of individual owned dye a lot too so ik when im broke on a dye lol

[lavish matrix]

Hey I returned to skycord again lmao

I'm not a beta tester but looking and the UI versions, I like how the dual scrolling of V1 subtly tells you that you're supposed to mix the base and secondary colours to give a certain hue. The gripe with it is that the way the colours chosen don't line up and are just highlighted by the white circle, which would've been slightly more confusing. I also like how in V2 clearly shows what dyes you chose for a specific final colour which V1 lacked.

I would like for a new UI to be a mix of both, where the dual columns snap to the chosen colour options so that they line up nicely and be visually clear and direct that these are the chosen colours for a mixture. And as for the symbols I'd love for them to be shaped like the dye jars bc it is easy to visually relate back to the dye jar mechanics. And in the main screen, you can see what dyes you use to gain a specific hue.

[cloud ocean]

Welcome back grey

[upper drift]

wb wb, i agree i would love a mix of UI

[lavish matrix]

Hi Soliiii I'm back (and I hope this is the last time I noped out)

[grizzled lichen]

Welcome back Grey!

[lavish matrix]

Thank you to both!

[lavish matrix]

Yeah!! Both versions have certain qualities the other lacked so I think mixing them up would make it more intuitive

[upper drift]

i also like the count being by the dye colors bc im gonna be so fr fir the longest time on ver. 1 UI i never noticed the dye count in the left corner lolol
too busy looking at the colors and scrutinizing my skykids clothes

[lavish matrix]

YEAH and it's against a black background makes it easy to read too. The circles in V1 is kinda awkward tbh

[upper drift]

yeees, plus with the addition of the symbols at the very least makes the interface easier to navigate for colorblind people who might play and want to dye clothes too, which i like a lot for QoL

[lavish matrix]

The way V1 colours when chosen don't actually line up annoys me a biiiit

[hidden ridge]

I tried playing on another phone and it still crashed

[lavish matrix]

Yesss the unique symbols are very accessible, cuz they can easily associate them with a colour

[cloud ocean]

With the UI i personally would prefer if a merge happened too - something like the accessibility and quickness of switching colors of V1 with the colors and symbols of V2

[upper drift]

exactlyyyyy, its just so friendly for anyone to use even if you aren't affected by colorblindness and tbh i like the symbols lol

[hidden ridge]

🥹I'm being forced to play Fortnite, but I don't want to touch the computer because it's too cold

[lavish matrix]

Thats what I'd love to have. The aesthetics for V2 is so nice and blends nicely into sky and V1 feels quicker

[upper drift]

plus having all the available information on the right side of the screen with the UI feels way easier to work with over having it all over the screen, its less visually noisy overall since it's less all over the place and instead its very compact and to the point for the overall design of v2 UI- but v1 UI was better in practice for overall ease of use

[lavish matrix]

Yea! V2 is visually clean but in terms of practice it needs to adopt some of the V1 (dual scolding + snapping). And maybe keep the "overview page" to see what colours you used to achieve the hue

[upper drift]

especially with the overview page giving a larger image kf the chosen colors in v2 compared to v1 having the apply and very small dye jars in the completion button, i had to squint to see the dye symbols on v1 lol

[lavish matrix]

Lmao my eyes would cry from V1 too 😭

[somber oyster]

I prefer the 3x3 grid over the dual scrolling to be honest - mainly because we immediately see how many dye jars we have left, there’s a good overview of the dyes used, none of it is “hidden”, there’s less “going back and back into the menu”,…

But I preferred the visual aspect of the V1

[upper drift]

i agree with the immediately seeing dye left, thus why i want i mix of the UIs tbh
the design of v2 with the practicality of v1 would be so perfect (and having everything in one place lol, v1 had the dye jars in the top left corner and it was veeery hard to notice for me)

[hidden ridge]

I seem to have found the problem with the crash, [ExPSaK0avOiPG3rgUlUksQ==/lib/arm64/libfmod.so]: This is the path to the library file that was being executed at the time the crash occurred. Here libfmod.so is a dynamically linked library that is typically used to provide audio processing functionality (FMOD is a popular audio engine library). (specifically com.tgc.sky.android.test.gold) crashes while executing the libfmod.so library. But if you are like me Android version running on the latest 15, the crashes are even more noticeable because the game has anti-cheat programs with encryption, which may be incompatible with each other with Android 15, but IOS is not affected by this, or at least the crashes are much less.

I can't get more technical details. Of course, there are crashes caused by incompatible game encryption, but this is rare.

[upper drift]

also with v2 i somewhat dislike having to choose the "base" color, then choose the "secondary" on a seperate popup UI compared to just choosing both on one UI where the base was the leftmost and secondary was right most

[upper drift]

oooh i see, so its an audio file related crash?

[hidden ridge]

Yes, some process animations may trigger a sound effect

This phenomenon indicates that the game is in a very early version. The upcoming Thanksgiving and Christmas have made it impossible to maintain and update in time. It seems that it will take some time to get updates to fix these vulnerabilities. I have been playing Fortnite.🫣

[lavish matrix]

the last like made me chuckle

[hidden ridge]

If you have an IOS device you may not encounter these problems, because I don’t have an IOS device, so…😭

[lavish matrix]

So....does turning off sfx may not cause it crash?

[hidden ridge]

Sorry, the translation may be wrong, I re-edited the information

[hidden ridge]

What?

[high atlas]

Since it's an audio related crash, they're asking if turning off audio is what helps get around the crash

[hidden ridge]

I haven't tested it yet, give it a try because my account crashed during the game animation in the prologue and I couldn't even open the settings options🥹

[high atlas]

Also I did leave my feedback for on the dye UI! I think I prefer the second version more. But I realized I also think it's because the force closing bug for the first annoyed me so much

[hidden ridge]

🌚I haven't played this game for a long time because the graphics quality was very bad before. I just downloaded it recently.

[solar patio]

Well here's a bad new: the graphic quality of Beta on Android downgraded in this build, and we have no idea what happened yet.

[hidden ridge]

It seems to be very poorly optimized for Android. When I played the game with the latest Snapdragon 8Gen3, the graphics quality was very poor, like a pot of porridge.

[somber oyster]

I’m going to collect my thoughts soon as well, once I properly wake up

[solar patio]

Well it used to be better before this build. I gonna feedback about that

[hidden ridge]

🫣I usually play more Xbox or PC games, but I was recently diagnosed with depression. My doctor played this game and she suggested that I play it, so I downloaded it. Because I don't like to go out, I sometimes stare at the game scenes. For me, the graphics are sometimes not that important.

[solar patio]

well, you may move to this channel for general chats https://discord.com/channels/575762611111592007/575827782144098304

[hidden ridge]

But my English is very poor, I need to rely on translation plug-ins

[high atlas]

This server is full of people from everywhere. So there are also lots of people using translators too!

[upper drift]

SNAPDRAGON???? YOU TOO??????

mine is a snapdragon 690 lol

[solar patio]

I prefer V1 only because it needs fewer clicks, and is possible for a preview of mixed colors But V2 truly have its advantages, such as counts of jars left and things like that.

[hidden ridge]

What's this

[upper drift]

processor for device, i have the same kind but probably an older model since yours is Snapdragon 8gen3 (mine is snapdragon 690)

[somber oyster]

Hey friends, general reminder that this channel is meant for seasonal discussion only. If you’d like to talk about other aspects of beta (graphics, crashes, devices, events,..) please use #beta-discussion

[upper drift]

mash them together v1 UI + v2 UI amalgamation 🙂 the best of both

[craggy needle]

ask a question

[hidden ridge]

But I usually use the RTX4070 GPU of the computer more often, and I don’t care about the performance of the phone

[craggy needle]

🇨🇳 Server linkage werewolf killing 🐺 Will we have it

Will our server be launched?

[hidden ridge]

I'm in China🇨🇳, but I don't play this server because it's so badly run

[craggy needle]

I saw the clothes of the werewolf killing

I like it so much

[hidden ridge]

🫨If you want to play on CN server, then I can help you register it

[craggy needle]

It's too troublesome. I don't want to switch servers

[hidden ridge]

No, it's simple

[craggy needle]

I hope to also collaborate with international servers

[livid bridge]

Oh my, can you help me? I want to play CN server but struggle in citizen identification 😭😭

[hidden ridge]

I'm having dinner now, you can send me a private message and I will help you in a moment

[trail notch]

I don’t like that with the grid you were required to apply each color individually
They can make a little tab underneath to show how much due you have. And visually I like the dual tab more, didn’t feel so clunky

[livid bridge]

It's so nice, thanks a lot, I will DMs you as soon as possible after download, thanks again, u saved me 😭🙏

[orchid knot]

I have immediately forgotten my experience with the scroll version other than the bug of getting kicked out, but this current version has been so smooth and tidy it feels great

[hidden ridge]

Don't download it yet. Downloading from outside CN will be very slow. I can create a mirror and you can download it very quickly.

[trail notch]

Guys take this talk to your dms pls

[craggy needle]

vpn？

[spiral needle]

Using a vpn is not recommended or supported by TGC. Please don't recommend, discuss, or seek help with VPNs in this server

[hidden ridge]

I can upload it to Google Drive, which will be much faster.

[craggy needle]

okok

[astral dock]

I swear the dyeing feature is so great but plz tgc either add more than just 2 dyable parts on each outfits or at least make the two parts the parts people actually want to dye 😭

The jester outfit is an absolute nightmare to dye bcuz this pattern has so much potential but they decided to only make the yellow part and the collar dyeable and its driving me crazy

[high atlas]

This is where I'm at too but actually I do think the newer version feels nicer in general. The only thing I liked about the first is not having to switch between the main color and the secondary one if I want to try other dye options

[astral dock]

I can't be the only one with this issue

[orchid knot]

Oh yeah changing the dye and then it resetting the tint as well

[high atlas]

Yes! I still have to write all my dye thoughts down and send a big feedback, but I will probably include more details on the dye mechanic as well. But I definitely still prefer the second

[drifting eagle]

Guys where do we get black and white dye from? I've been running around all realms and only got a teeny tiny bit of that dye not even a full candle☠️ is it supposed to be that rare or are there certain spots for it?

[orchid knot]

I had to go look at videos I took from the first UI to refresh my memory, and I also think that have 3x3 grid where we can see all colours immediately vs scrolling is also something I prefer cause like scrolling is my nemesis in every other menu we have
But I think I agree with earlier chats about maybe a combination of the good things from each version

will definitely write up feedback in a bit but right now my main preferences are

• seeing the number of dyes we own
• not having to scroll
• clean and simple design
• NO KICKING OUT TINT/SECONDARY COLOUR

So I hope they can incorporate those aspects in whichever UI they settle on

[olive prairie]

Hey Beta chat, in the next season, what parts of the warrior of love cape can be dyed?

[cosmic vine]

none, all collab items are off-limits 😔

[spiral lodge]

Whoever said magenta and cyan make white together, I love you 🫶🫶🫶

[lavish matrix]

I love that too, basically a cheaper version of white

[spiral lodge]

now if only 2 colours made black together

[lavish matrix]

I think it makes sense, bc it's right next to white in the RGB colour wheel

Also I think the cyan + magenta white isn't too blinding? If I'm seeing correctly

[olive prairie]

NOOO 😭 🙏

[lavish matrix]

We could also get black from mixing two dyes IF it is set in the subtractive RYB / CMYK form

[somber oyster]

I just noticed the 11 jars of white dye in #beta-announcements 🤣

[lavish matrix]

LMAO did sago grind the white dye

[balmy tapir]

My opinion is very simple, the first version of UI is superior bc you could quickly switch both colors and easily compare many colors, and the current version is a nightmare with 150 extra clicks to do the same

[orchid knot]

ELEVEN???? ima need Sagomay to drop that dye run routine for us

[upper drift]

i think current has its perks, i don't like navigating it bc of the extra button presses but it is more fleshed out visually at least, which i do like a lot (especially the review screen, i prefer v2 review over v1 since its hard for me to see the chosen dyes/cost on the button on v1)

[lavish matrix]

Yes aesthetically V2 is more streamlined but it needs to be simpler in terms of press counts for the same type of action

[balmy tapir]

The current UI reminds me of the new stiff conste UI and I dislike that one too

[lavish matrix]

The visuals for the V1 is awkward at best imo like why using circles and the numbers on the circles throw me off too 😭

[upper drift]

i can't even really see some of the numbers bc there's not enough contrast lmao

[balmy tapir]

? What numbers

[orchid knot]

There were numbers on the circles?

[upper drift]

i dropped a pic in screenshots lmao

[lavish matrix]

LMAO the numbers aren't even necessary 😭 without the numbers, it doesn't really tell you that it supposedly mean the parts of dyeing

Oh when you first open the ui, it shows circles with numbers 1 and 2

[orchid knot]

Oh those numbers, weren't they for different dye sections?

[lavish matrix]

It's so crunch like a cookie

Yeah! But at first glance for the first timers, it doesn't tell as much

[upper drift]

they didn't rlly tell a lot and tbh there was so little contrast that sometimes i couldn't even see it without squinting some 😭😭

[solar lark]

We should only have one button that randomly picks a dye

[lavish matrix]

I can't even see the required dye on the bar at the bottom too its so CRUNCHY

[orchid knot]

Idk I thought it made sense cause like you can see they correspond to which section you've dyed, the same as version 2 buttons but they're not numbered

[lavish matrix]

To me the numbers aren't really necessary in that case imo

[upper drift]

i mean its easy once you mess with it some to learn what it does, but v2 works fine without the numbers too

[orchid knot]

What device y'all playing on that makes everything so crunchy though like I could see stuff clearly in both versions on iPad 😭

[lavish matrix]

Yeah! Either way V1 aesthetically feels like a prototype

[upper drift]

android- snapdragon processing unit (so basically a processor known to have the crunchiest sky graphics ever)

[solar lark]

V1 feels like I'm using MSPaint

[trim coral]

i came back for dye season

[lavish matrix]

Season of MSPaints

[orchid knot]

Welcome back!

[trim coral]

bro is black and white really THAT rare?? also im sniffing for dark blue and purple for Xiao dye

[lavish matrix]

Idk why Sago has 11 jars of white

[solar lark]

Sago's been stealing it all

[orchid knot]

they clearly know the best spots

[lavish matrix]

But you can also make an alternative "white" by using Cyan as primary and Magenta secondary colour

[trim coral]

is the dyes only available just in 1 place?

[solar lark]

Mum can we have white?
We have white at home

[orchid knot]

#beta-screenshots-videos message look at this none crunchy version 1 it makes sense still

[lavish matrix]

Multiple realms! All realms except Vault and Isle

[balmy tapir]

And valley

[lavish matrix]

There's some dark plants in Valley Temple tho (or what I've heard)

[lavish matrix]

Yeah but it feels...very plain like some low effort preset custom ui

[balmy tapir]

Yes but I don't think there's color plants

[lavish matrix]

Really? I'm sure I saw people saying they can get dye in valley temple

[upper drift]

i like being able to see both primary and secondary selections at the same time with 1st version but second looks soooo nice, there's so much less visual noise and more contrast

[orchid knot]

I've also noticed, I know we can see how much dye we need in the second version too but from the layouts compared by Poison, the number of dyes needed showing before you press to "apply/unlock" is super handy, adding that to my list

[balmy tapir]

If base UI display was kinda like the second version with the dye selection like the first version I'd be fine with that

[lavish matrix]

Oh yeah it's really handy! But I think the red text against black bg is hard to see

Maybe have it blue text for the numbers like classic sky hint

[lavish matrix]

Me squinting to see the numbers on the circles:

[solar lark]

So in rows instead of a single long column?

[upper drift]

maybe a more saturated red against a higher contrast black background would make it easier bc my eyes

[balmy tapir]

My primary grief about the second version is having to choose colors separately

[trim coral]

Oh yea give me more dye locations after the other locations I could find tho I'll dye run later

[upper drift]

same i really don't like the extra button presses, everything else is nice but after being able to just scroll up or down with both main and secondary on the screen i don't wanna press the checkmark then press secondary then press color them go huh i don't like that and back out and press main color

[orchid knot]

I think red makes sense cause it signifies NO, STOP, ERROR kinda thing

[lavish matrix]

@pseudo adder I don't think we have only 72 colours from the combinations possible, because we can have make different colours from like, cyan + blue and blue + cyan each afaik

(I can't math but it feels like there's much more colours we can get from the dyes)

[orchid knot]

Basically red is just the game saying megamind voice no dye?

[lavish matrix]

Let's be real if we're allowed to make more colours from say, colour wheel, I'm sure it's gonna burn the engine

[balmy tapir]

I think the colors we got are nice + it's still a lot + they display differently if applied to different parts sometimes

[lavish matrix]

Yep!! I love the way it is now, it's nicer than going too saturated

[pseudo adder]

the only was heavy sarcasm. but i think 72 is the right math 🤔

my count for 72 incl the blue&cyan and cyan&blue swapping ^^

[lavish matrix]

The colour swapping you mean xD

[pseudo adder]

theres 8 primary-slot dye options and then 9 secondary slot dye options (including blank) so thats 72. i would have had to think way harder if the same color could be made from swapping primary-secondary

(edit: if colour mix was the same no matter if it was primary or secondary, we would still have 44 colours!!!)

[balmy tapir]

72 is 8*8+8

[lavish matrix]

Ohh thanks for the math! It's been a while since I mathed

I didn't realise we can include blank for the secondary option too

[fervent crest]

Dye collection is too slow. It was sped up in the beta but still full. It's hard to imagine how much slower it will be in the live version.🤣

[clever quiver]

question!

the black pants from rainbow do they can dye it?

[cloud ocean]

You can dye some of the colors on the belt and collar area. I think the blue part is the exception tho :/

[clever quiver]

aww man, i thought you can dye all

[cloud ocean]

Oh neat. Valley temple has also been the only place with darkness to burn in the realm. (If you’re not counting the dark plants around spirits)
#beta-screenshots-videos message

[humble crown]

Silly thing, but I like the differences between the symbols for black and white dye. Black dye is missing the core of the white dye symbol, like a light that went out.

[lavish matrix]

Ohh that's an interesting detail!!

[limpid whale]

Can you dye the Journey cape?

[cosmic vine]

no, collab items aren't dyable

[limpid whale]

Aw okay, thanks!

[trim coral]

It's would be amazing if we could dye aurora wings but I don't think that ever come true lol

[high atlas]

That would be nice though. I could make purple sparkly wings

[cosmic vine]

oh my god, I just realized I never feedbacked my idea about the base shade of an item being adjustable to make them fit with different color temperatures
my dislike towards several different hues of black we have in the game has been so quiet in my brain since I fell in love with other colors

I'm fine with keeping some options limited for lore/cultural/etc reasons, but it's not like any of that would change if we could make them, uh, more pastel, for example

[ember hull]

#beta-screenshots-videos message isn't it because it's metallic?

It's not metallic

[orchid knot]

It's cause of the original muzzle colour yeah, it's dark so the white applies differently to the eye section

[marsh orbit]

THIS!!! more pastel colors/cream colors too

[echo warren]

Man, I was sad we can't get to the nesting roof anymore 😭 I can't place decorations up there now without being sent down to village

[lone adder]

Hi

How can I enter beta?

[rare seal]

everything is explained in #beta-faq but you need to wait for invitations to enter, there are no official dates for this, just be patient

[lone adder]

Thanks, I already read the information 🤗

[limpid arch]

Do plants respawn? Can we collect them multiple times per day? (Please reply, do not emoji react)

[spark glade]

are we getting an elk call?

[boreal grove]

Well no, but yes
No because once you finished the realm that has a dye plants and come back again, it will turn fully black and it will not release colored butterflies

Yes if you do the trick of restart game, that might restart some plants and have a colored butterflies on it.

[cosmic vine]

they seem to reset hourly as of now
in my personal experience though, subsequent runs won't give you as much dye as the first one did

[limpid arch]

ooh I see.. thank you guys!

[ember hull]

The gradient on the scarf cape is so good

[high atlas]

Oh my goodness now people are posting more banger dyes in the screenshot channel

[icy isle]

i just realized, did they add more locations for colored plants?

[lavish matrix]

I'm taking notes of the dye combos as we speak

[slate valve]

Season of Color Theory

[tulip veldt]

@forest glen i think there's never any there because it's still kind of a moth zone

[forest glen]

Hm.. 🤔

[forest glen]

Another question...

If plants already burnt..... And you have a piggy friend on shoulder.. And you flying trough the butterflies with honk. Did just you got the color or the piggy friend too? I can't test because I havnt piggy friend online.

[spiral needle]

[tidal sentinel]

@somber oyster I'm not a beta tester...
... Who renamed me the terrible?

[lavish matrix]

It still counts as making guides for the beta testers

Things are bound to change when it comes to live so definitely keep the guides for yourself and update it when the season is live

skybot

[cloud ocean]

It was skybot during days of mischief

[chilly turtle]

Can you mix brown colors? So far I have seen people do different colorful variations, but not really browns or very muted colors. I'd like to be able to add more earthy tones to my cosmetics

[high atlas]

Yeah, you gotta kinda mess around with colors, but you can get quite a nice range of browns, golds, and cream colors!

[lavish matrix]

Here's an example! It's a nicely muted gold

#beta-screenshots-videos message

[tulip veldt]

you can get browns with complimentary color mixing so like, yellow/purple, red/green, blue/orange

[lavish matrix]

Takes notes

[golden ore]

we better be getting a color mixing guide when radiance starts in live

[rich silo]

but it varies depending on the outfit cuz some of them just do a totally different tint
esp comparing the DoC mask vs pants

[blissful grove]

Can we dye spinning mentors cape? If not, then I won't buy from the TS

[high atlas]

Yes all the dreams capes are dyable

[spring ibex]

the new season would be perfect if the main colours of clothing items were dyeable

[rich silo]

the seasonal ones do let you change that significantly, for radiance

[upper drift]

a friend showed up talking about radiance and a new "elk call" but i opened beta and its not there?

is this simply fake news, or am i missing smth lol

[lavish matrix]

I can assume it's just some fake news

[cloud ocean]

Fake news. There are no new calls in beta

[upper drift]

okay i thought I might've been missing smth but like I didn't have it at all, nor a WIP in that section whatsoever so

[devout venture]

iirc the rumour started because of a youtube vid that was of an edit. afaik TGC hasnt used realistic animal sounds for any of their calls really and the edited video is far too realistic. /gen info

[upper drift]

i figured it was very likely misinfo since in my time playing radiance so far i never saw it lol but i was like maybe? it was apparently a convincing video

[pseudo adder]

yeah i saw the video. its an edited call n fake ^^ but the poster of the video doesnt really clarify that at all // is misleading ppl for views

[calm garnet]

Does anyone get constant crashes when you are wearing any cosmetics that are dyed even if you choose default?

[upper drift]

i don't but i crash wearing the season mask

[calm garnet]

Is your mask dyed before? No matter you have selected or nah

[upper drift]

not dyed nog, it was the only season item i wore too and i stopped crashing between reload points after taking it off

i wear dyed cape & pants (performance ult and fire prophet pants) with no crashing issues though

[calm garnet]

Interesting
I am fully regretted for wearing my cat scarf cape atm since I have 2 sets of dyes, previously I was fine before changing the cosmetics (Alice dress+ flight cape)

[upper drift]

oohh

[calm garnet]

I would like to know what causes crashing for us:
🖌️- dyed cosmetics
✨- new season cosmetics
🎮- device
❓- random
If there are more additions please feel free to add

[pale yew]

Did some beta stuff actually leak into the live servers? I've seen multiple people angry because their capes look less shiny or more greyish now...

[solar patio]

In crash log, looks like (on Android devices) a bug in the sound updating system causes this crash. It happens randomly depends on devices
you can google "signal 7 SIGBUS" for details

[solar patio]

#beta-season-test-chat message

[pale yew]

thanks

well, that does not really answer my question, I think

I was mostly curious about people talking about how some capes have changed on live and look different now as in very recently. More greyish or less shiny... with the upcoming beta content about colouring I was just curious if this change somehow made it to live unknowingly when the recent hotfix was applied for the wax refresh

[cosmic vine]

the dyes don't affect the main coloring of the cape
what people are most likely experiencing are lighting bugs

[rocky linden]

hello not a usual here i was curious do we have spirits for this season or just mannequins so far?

[golden ore]

There are 3 spirits so far

[still raven]

Unlimited daily light refresh starts in beta 😂 if you fix one thing another one will break.

[spiral sphinx]

Mine's fixed after staying in prairie for a few minutes, and then next up in the list is the server error

[golden ore]

Daily light refresh stopped after i collect enough wax to forge a candle. Crashing also reduced a lot after i reinstall beta. Still crashes but it's significantly better.

[hybrid crown]

Wait where?

[still raven]

Here I can't go into any realm. Daily come online get 1 seasonal candle from the statue. Get candle wax from home.

Try to go to any realm and crash 🤣

[surreal cradle]

Whats steam link happened ? I cant join 😭😭😭

[somber oyster]

The PC beta was only briefly available, and only a select few members were able to get a key!

But for the live game, anyone can play by downloading it on Steam

[craggy bobcat]

Does anyone know how often dyes reset in Sky???

[high atlas]

They seem to be resetting every hour

[craggy bobcat]

Thank youuu!! Means I can come at whatever time of day and collect

[high atlas]

Yeah! It is helpful to do some, and then come back and get more!

[trail notch]

So it means we can collect more than once in every location if an hour had passed? I just didn't have the time to check this out myself but I think I noticed this while running for dyes. Came back to one of the locations and there were new collectible plants

[lofty spade]

Im seeing some people liking so much the new mask, and i say this for everyone: wait until the final version, remember what happen to the passage mask

[craggy bobcat]

I hope they don’t change too much, I like the way it is

[cosmic vine]

on the contrary, yk what barely changed through its original testing period? the anoob mask

[balmy tapir]

I have 20 jars of blue

[cosmic vine]

I have 27, the black dye hunt is hell

[slate valve]

Don't forget to drop feedback about the stuff one likes, not only of what one wishes to get changed

[tulip veldt]

always important when giving critique to start with something you like 🙂

[solar lark]

20 jars in just 2 weeks seems good. Even if Live had half the rate it would still be somewhat decent

[somber oyster]

Interesting! The “going home” aspect is super bugged out - the game warps me in & out of the areas constantly.

But just now I was in GW collecting dyes, merged with someone in the server who had the same rotation as I had and when I wanted to go home, I went home to old home… with them, but my home is aviary!!

Probably a bug but it would be so cool if that was an actual feature (returning to the home of the “uber”)

[balmy tapir]

2.7 jars of black in two weeks then

[hollow spade]

Helloo...shall someone tell me how much will be the invisible pants?

[high atlas]

We don't know until it's announced in #news

[high atlas]

Ohh so I'm wondering if this is why if I go home, I'll suddenly teleport back to the same place I was if someone was with me. I didn't even consider same plant cycles as the issue too.

[solar lark]

Yeah black dye definitely needs to be adjusted, 5 jars per week should be the minimum for every dye

[high atlas]

5 jars per color sounds like a decent amount yeah

[solar lark]

Cause you're really not going to be dyeing every cosmetic you have immediately, also not like new players have much to dye in the first palce

[somber oyster]

Oh that’s maybe why I kept going back to my friend who was afk with no ability to escape😭

[high atlas]

There were a few times I was in gw with a stranger and I'd go home. Then suddenly I'm back in gw with the stranger lmaooo

[somber oyster]

I have mixed opinions on the amount of dye we need / want per week. I don’t mind it being a longer term goal, but I also want enough dye to have fun with the combinations

[high atlas]

But I'll test and see if it's a plant cycle causing it cuz that's an interesting observation

And yes agree with that too! I want to play with the dye but still want to have something to do too

[solar lark]

More is definitely nicer but 5 should be the absolute minimum

Also 5 jars of 8 dyes is 40 to play with

Haven't been on since the crashing but you can combine every dye with each other besides 2 of the same right?

[high atlas]

You can combine two of the same dye! It makes the color more vibrant if you do

[tulip veldt]

i think burning a big plant is the most satisfying thing i've done in ages

also, hi beta! sorry I've been busy in the days now to say hi over my coffee!

[hollow spade]

Ooh so it's not known even in beta?

[high atlas]

Nope. We weren't given a price cuz everything costed one seasonal And even if we were given a proper price, it still isn't for sure since prices change all the time in beta.

[hollow spade]

Ooh I knew it could be changed between beta and live but didn't think they didn't even tell the price in the beta
Thank you for telling me Luci

[untold junco]

Aw the group playtest is at 2am for me😭 well have fun for whoever is joining

Idk why i thought the playtest was relevant to this chat

[thin summit]

Are we supposed to wait until we get a personal invite saying that beta version of Sky is available n that we have to download it

[slate valve]

What happened in previous invite waves is a ping letting everyone know with the beta role that invites are open

From there is a first come first serve with the iOS and Android invite links, you gotta be quick

A dev won't personally dm you with the invite, basically

[chilly turtle]

It's been over a year since the last iOS beta invites. I really hope a new wave would come soon

[forest glen]

1 jar per day is good.

Really do they think, that all players would stay hours? For searching for dye? It should be more of the amount. Otherwise it would take years to play with color mixes. 🤔🙄 People's have real life. They don't want spend the whole day in searching for dye.

[solar lark]

please delete, that is hacked

[broken zinc]

Ah it is? Okay

[rich silo]

unless it’s an email with a steam key

[pastel rover]

crashes...crashes... crashes... again, again, again...(to be continued.... again...)🤐game crash

[frail tundra]

Hehee can't wait for the season to come to live so i can cosplay as forehead queen from Splatoon

[rare seal]

doot!

[hybrid crown]

What the heck they’ve reduced the max amount of outfit colour variants to 2!

[lavish matrix]

I thought it's already 2

[vale temple]

Only two outfit varieties is insane work

Oh I read it as we can only have two other dyed outfit sets in closet for an outfit ? Is that wrong?

[rich silo]

maybe it caused server issues

[lavish matrix]

I think it's probably due to crash issues caused by too many variants available so they have to reduce it

[silent dirge]

Noooooo it was 8 different variants and now 2?

[rich silo]

don't know cuz it's kinda vague wording, have to see

[cloud ocean]

Oh hm. I thought they weren’t adding tassels to the scarf cape?

[rich silo]

oh it got added in
my beta is still updating

[ember ingot]

Will we be able to delete a variant? I didn't understand that
My beta crashes when i enter Aviary

[orchid burrow]

Scarf cape decides when it wants go be worn or not in this update

[cunning hearth]

they aren't suppose to fly on their own either

[lavish matrix]

Yeah it's unfortunate but if that was causing the issues before it's fine to make the game playable I guess

[orchid burrow]

I wouldn't mind it just as long as getting the ingredients isn't a grind

[ember ingot]

I wanted to test if deleting a variant would give back the ink i used
But its crashing not a good day for my beta kid

[high atlas]

Oo I like this UI for the dye

[silent dirge]

There's still no new music sheets for this season?

[rich silo]

game is halfway through doot let me in

[pseudo adder]

max amount of outfit variants updated to 2

will this be in live too? or only in beta to reduce crashing?

[orchid knot]

awwww only two :(

[ember ingot]

Its more likely to go to live as well because of the massive number of players on live version
If on beta is giving problems, imagine on live

[hushed charm]

I wonder if it is even related because i have 0 colored things and crashing was still frequent

[solar lark]

#beta-screenshots-videos message anyone else get this?

[vapid fossil]

@ivory vortex tagging here but i could've sworn devs said the tassels weren't intentional and will update the cape icon in future build. now the icon is updated but the tassels on the scarf cape is here

no wonder the devs removed it in the first place, it has a mind of its own /j

[ember ingot]

This is happening to me on live XD

[high atlas]

Interesting. The music stops playing when you are dyeing a cosmetic

[cunning hearth]

empty cafe can be caused by server issues

[ivory vortex]

Thanks ♡

[pseudo adder]

the tassels on the scarf cape look like the tassely cape model just got merged onto it, incl the other tassels cape’s neckpiece

[vale temple]

Ah I really don't like the little tassel things added to the ult cape.... It makes something that was simple and nice cluttered imo

[solar lark]

I just found it really weird that a handful of people in Live got it at athe exact same time as the doot. Like 5 people at once

[slate valve]

it was stated to have been discarded, it came back for revenge

[pseudo adder]

@copper yacht is that a terraria reference? i love terraprisma [from sc channel]

[lavish matrix]

I personally like it! It gives more charm than /just/ a scarf cape

[cunning hearth]

maybe some backend changes were applied similarly

[copper yacht]

It is haha, at least it's floating like this!

[tulip veldt]

omg sit down underneath the scarf

[silent dirge]

I really hope TGC finds another solution for the variants, because only two with how rare the dyes are it's gonna feel very restricted in my opinion

[topaz gyro]

The scarf wanted to walk alone

[ember ingot]

I really want the previous version for the scarf
It was simple yet elegant
Simple yet enough
Those little things will just ruin the vibe for me... we have other items that already gives the voice of nobility or something like this

[cunning hearth]

tassels could be an accessory tbh

[iron island]

I agree with you !

[ember ingot]

I cant test right now, but if when we delete a variant it gives the colors back to the inventory, then it will be no issue for me at least

[topaz gyro]

They could be like the Moomin tail, so we combine them with any cape

[hushed charm]

That would be neat

[silent dirge]

Yeah 100% agree, that would be really nice

[solar lark]

Yeah the tassles make it too much going on

[upper drift]

i think the end of the scarf could have a couple of the levitating gem thingies, and maybe the front count have a small tassle but i do dislike the shoulder tassles

[copper yacht]

I can say they are good actually, but only if they would be a decorative separate thing

[pseudo adder]

idk if its too early / not enough are in game but could anyone show the dye shop UI updates? i wanna see the verdict from all our feedback

[tulip veldt]

where does the guide want me to go

[orchid knot]

the scarf cape shenanigans in screenshots is making me laugh so much

[somber oyster]

Just a general reminder that while it’s still a beta environment, everything can change.

It’s pretty normal that we see different iterations of… everything! So please don’t forget to send your thoughts in #beta-feedback

[ember ingot]

Oooh
Yes!!
Idk how hard or if it would be even possible, but opening more areas of the closet would be good as well for this season
I mean like
Put this and Remembrance's ultimate on a "cape acessory" section and scarfs and shoulder items at neck accessories

It's very vague the way I said, but I can't really express with words

[upper drift]

i think i would just like them more if they weren't trying to fly off my skykids shoulders lol, front tassles and tail-end tassles are nice but im not a shoulder tassles person

[copper yacht]

Yes yes yes!!!

[tulip veldt]

ok everyone, time to go out and walk our pet capes today

[silent dirge]

Same for beards, I'd love to wear certain beards on certain masks too

[topaz gyro]

I always thought that maybe we could have more sections for each item. Not exaggeratedly, but for example (just an example) we could have a section for gloves, another for shoes, and even a section for neck accessories.
I'm just saying tho, I'm still happy with what we have

[slate valve]

I crashed trying to swap the scarf cape

[upper drift]

it missed you give it attention

[lavish matrix]

Give it some love

[topaz gyro]

(By the neck I mean that it is separated from the shoulder accessories)

[ember ingot]

Mine tried to bite me, so no watching krills for it today

[high atlas]

I’m laughing so hard at this help-

[copper yacht]

Or i can say with the magic floating swords tassels

[ember ingot]

That's what I am saying!
A closet update would be very pleasant on a season that brings more functions within this part of the game

[orchid knot]

[pseudo adder]

imo a lot of sky accesory items are really hard to separate into categories in general since some items overlap (regionally on a skid body) way more than others. body-regional divisions of the closet could work, but i would also like to pitch accessory layering/caps (ex. throw all accessories into one pool and u could pick 5 of any)

[lavish matrix]

can we keep the bug as one of the toggle, like cape or make it sentient thing

[silent dirge]

Feedbacks: We want pets pls

TGC: Say no more

[orchid knot]

help I ran past the kid and parent spirits in aviary and they started laughing, is something funny about walking my cape huh

[topaz gyro]

That cape have feelings

[lavish matrix]

go ahead and walk your cape, be happy with your newfound pet

[tulip veldt]

Normalest day, really

[upper drift]

im gonna cry the pet cale discussion is too funny there aretears in my eyes

[shell fossil]

@lavish matrix I'm not entirely clear on all the factors for that change, but we're hoping to increase the number of variations you can have at once in the longer term

[high atlas]

What will you name your pet capes?

[hushed charm]

Great

[lavish matrix]

Thank you for your answer, I really appreciate it!

[silent dirge]

Take my money, take my soul, take everything you want I'm begging you

[topaz gyro]

Omelet, because I am hungry

[lavish matrix]

Hmmm

Tofu

Bc it looks like a sheet of tofu slice

[high atlas]

Y’all are so creative. Im just naming mine

Capey

[upper drift]

im gonna name it... sushi ....... its full name will be spicy crabmeat roll

[olive forum]

Noooo
TGC ruined the cape by putting these things on the cape, it was so good without those decorations, please remove it

[lavish matrix]

CAPEY

[solar lark]

I'll name it Y

[lavish matrix]

[ember ingot]

I want mine to be jelly
Can't have the jellyfish pet from days of sunlight so I get my jellycape from radiance

[silent dirge]

I will name mine Madame Rodriguez, because why not

[lavish matrix]

Oh it does kinda look like a jelly

[tulip veldt]

ok, so we're all gonna need a portait of you and your pet capes with their name in screenshots so we can make a group picture 🙂

[high atlas]

You know what I instantly thought of? Those kite spirits from Korra

[lavish matrix]

kite spirits 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Yes the vaatu and raava

[ember ingot]

"Moms of skycapes' kindergarten"

[upper drift]

this is probably the funniest bug ive ever seen

[high atlas]

Ohh big dye plants give wax too with the dye colors

[iron island]

Guide Cape

[ember ingot]

I vividly remember the weird spider limbs bug that had me laughing for days
If im not wrong it was on revival? I cant record the time

[upper drift]

lmaooo true but this one is just so entertaining 😭😭

[orchid knot]

my battery died so my cape only got to play for a little while, but what a time to be alive and awake for a doot

[lavish matrix]

It was during uhh early this year

[topaz gyro]

Oh i remember! It was so funny

[ember ingot]

Man i am really lost on time

[rich silo]

new quest radi guide wants to become trans toothy boi icic

[lavish matrix]

Huh

[ember ingot]

If i said i understood this phrase i would be lying

[lavish matrix]

Me neither 😭

[high atlas]

Idk what that means but good for them. I am supporting their transition

[ember hull]

#beta-screenshots-videos message so they removed the tassels on the icons but then gave the cape tassels? did someone put the wrong cape in the build?

[lavish matrix]

I'm betting they put the wrong version 😭 but at least we got a funny bug from it

Also in the notes they didn't mention anything about updating the cape too

[pseudo adder]

also could be that they just show the different versions of the cape without chronological order so they can hear feedback on both. skids are very vocal about changes between patches

[tulip veldt]

it's pretty clear the capes have become sentient and snuck their way of their own accord into this build

[olive forum]

Is it bugged?

[orchid knot]

I love this version I hope it goes live, adding it to my favourites list with spider passage pants

[high atlas]

Okay I understand what Cy means now lmao

[lavish matrix]

[calm moss]

Even after update intro cutscene doesn't work

[rich silo]

sorry I just call greeting shaman toothy boi cuz they are one

[olive forum]

I'm sure most people will buy the Season pass through Cape and Mask, and TGC making the Cape look terrible made me hesitant to buy the Pass, I've already given my feedback about it and I hope everyone contributes.

[lavish matrix]

Personally I think I'm fine with it, the way its bugged is funny nevertheless

I don't think it's ever intended to come into this build because sago doesn't mention changing the cape or any cosmetic at all because ash clearly stated there's no intending to add tassels again imo

[olive forum]

And the cape icon is missing these details, which means it may have been a prototype.

[lavish matrix]

Maybe the reason why the tassels didn't pass the earlier tests because it became too sentient?

[lavish matrix]

Previously the cape icon had tassels and Ash did say it's an older version of the cape, so it might had been a funny case of an older ver making its way through to this build

[tulip veldt]

oh i know, its cuz capes are actually cephalopods and they have more brains in their tentacles so this cape has clearly become TOO SMART

[orchid knot]

Whether it appearing in this build is intentional or not, I don't mind cause it gives us a chance to see the iteration and feedback, since we had the icon for it in the previous build I wondered how a tasselled version would look so it's good to see nevertheless

the physics is obviously the intentional part, we've been sorely lacking sentient cosmetics /j

[lavish matrix]

More sentient cosmetics

LMAOOOO INDEED IT IS A BUGGED SENTIENT CAPE

[solar lark]

So I guess we don't need to feedback it

[lavish matrix]

But it's a funny bug nevertheless 😭

oo new hint

[golden ore]

Yeeeeee

[high atlas]

There's glowing stars now for all plants to burn omg that's helpful

[lavish matrix]

Still...can we have a second version of that cape...so we can have a sentient cape pet

[tulip veldt]

only when you have the quest on tho

[astral zealot]

@lavish matrix Yep, nat and I are trying to figure out why the cape is haunted

[orchid knot]

tassels weren't happy to be sidelined so they're coming back with vengeance

[high atlas]

I personally think it's hilarious, you should just keep it haunted

[solar lark]

Make this version the ult please

[olive forum]

But explain to me, this version of the cape is not the final version, right?

[orchid knot]

omg if only I could use external emojis here I have the best one for this scenario

[solar lark]

skybot play spook.mov

[lavish matrix]

The cape forgot Mischief had ended

[shell fossil]

I think it ate too many waffles while we weren't looking and now it has superpowers

[orchid knot]

#beta-screenshots-videos message okay I reacted to Nat's message with it, such a glorious ghost chasing blob emote to represent cape chasing sky child

[lavish matrix]

It isn't a final version! It's just haunted zombie cape

[rich silo]

tbh the new version looks like a dragonfly

[vale temple]

Oh I'm glad to see the tassels aren't meant to be there. I don't usually wear masks a lot but was ssupper hyped for the scarf cape (no tassels). I love Hathor mask a ton but it'll probably be something I admire on others more and wear every once in a while. So when I saw the cape change I was like darn...... 💀

But it's unintentional, so yay for me

[lavish matrix]

More like the old zombie version

[orchid knot]

do you ever feel like a bugged cape drifting through the wind trying to keep your tassels

[astral zealot]

Its actually an old WIP version that was changed internally before the first beta was even released so the intended version was the tassel-less version from the last build!
