YASUR base color gets overridden by faction color

Post by chaospilot555 »

Good day,

I bought the Collector’s Edition specifically for the Yasur and was rather horrified to find that its original red base colour is being overwritten by my default faction paint.

This is especially surprising, as I understand this issue was already fixed in a previous update

Could this please be looked into, or could the original red Yasur livery be made available as a selectable paint option?

Kind regards,
A rather disappointed Yasur owner

The red is not the "original red base colour", that's the unpainted appearance; the undercoat if you like! Whatever paint mod you put on it will change the colour to something. There's no option to not have paint at all, and never has been, so I'm not sure what you mean about something being "fixed" as it's working as intended. All that said, there's nothing to stop you choosing a red-coloured paint mod and using that to override the faction default. :)

I dont understand. I did not put any paint mod on it, it spawned with my faction color when i "downloaded" it from the expedition inventory.
And as far as i understand there is no red paint mod like the original one

Why did other players manage to get the red version like in the post above?


EDIT:
Es wurde behoben, dass Yasur, die aus dem Online-Inventar gespawnt werden, nicht die Standard-Farbmod anwenden.

Yes, that's your default faction paint mod. It's the one that gets used if you don't install one manually on a ship, but you can override it for each individual ship.

in this case this seems to be a bug, because the changelog of 6.2 specifically says:
"Fixed Yasur spawned from online inventory not applying default paint mod."

There is no way to click the checkbox for "not override paint job if faction color changes" before it does so on the YASUR

The old claimable ships in the universe that have "no paint mod" even after you claim them have this box checked automatically and dont change their paint mod and stay gray color.

Or is the red color specifically from the ventures beta and is now unobtainable for ever? :(

No, you've misunderstood. The red colour was because it wasn't applying the default paint mod, which now that I think about it probably explains how those people got their screenshots. Now it does apply the default paint mod, as intended.
