The solution to this would be setting the transparency on these items’ handles to their transparency level stated on the script. (0.7 on Ghostwalker and 0.5 on Icedagger)
This can be seen working on the item Ghostfire Sword, which has a transparency level of 0.25 on it’s handle.
The gears you listed in your report have a transparency on the handle as intended, but don’t appear transparent in 3D view. The ones I’ve reported here have none at all, but are supposed to. Both about transparent items, but different issues!
Are there any updates you or @Klaugrana001 can share on this ticket? It would be great to see these items have their transparencies updated:
Current behavior (0 Transparency on website) is not the original look intended for these items.
At first glance, it seems like the fix is relatively clear and feasible (changing Transparency values in Handle)
Ghostwalker and Icedagger are expensive and iconic items, and I believe many people (owners and beyond) would appreciate the items receiving some love with this long outstanding bug fixed.
This should be a (hopefully) trivial fix for these specific items. The issue is their Transparency is only set initially once their script runs, which doesn’t actually run in the thumbnail renderer. As an example, Ghostwalker should have a transparency of ~0.7.
Even though it has been like this for several years, most owners of these items have owned it for much longer and these are meant to be catalog replicas of Shedletsky’s iconic swords from Sword Fights on the Heights. This item is not meant to be solid white.
