Korblox Lord of Death's Cape's Texture is significantly lower quality in r6 compared to r15

Hello,

As the title suggests, the package Korblox Lord of Death’s Cape (Specifically this) has a massive quality downgrade in r6. Image 1 (Top) is r6, image 2 (bottom) is r15. Both screenshots were taken within the avatar editor, however this bug can be seen in game.

Expected behavior

I feel the texture should remain consistent between r6 and r15, like all other accessories.

This is unfortunately got to do with how R6 avatars are rendered.

Meanwhile, updating the rendering pipeline for SpecialMesh is probably a massive task in itself. This is technically ‘solveable’, albeit it is presumably nowhere near an easy fix unfortunately, especially given the fact that I can only assume some games are possibl…
