Runes of Magic US / AU

Sounds similar to what I get in siege when characters don't load. If I have too many background processes rom fails to load some characters and I can only see name tags. Try restarting client from there.

While I don't think it's all that common, I can say that I've seen the same, or a similar effect in siege a couple of times. I do not know for certain what might cause it. It could be one or more combinations of server, system, or client lag, or connection issue (slower connection for the other player, or for you), or even the speed (or lack of it) that your computer draws the object.

I've also seen it in the regular game world, mainly in Varanas, after I've ported around a bit. It doesn't seem to affect every other toon, but with some I just seem to see the names, but not the toons themselves. Relogging usually fixes it, but that's not necessarily practical during siege.

You might want to send a ticket to Support about this, at least to inform them about the issue, and give as complete a description as you can. If you have screenshots available, please do include them as attachments to your ticket.

For about the 3-4 weeks, we have had a same issue, and not just in siege. The only thing you can see is the name tag and life bar. It got better with the maintenance about 2 weeks ago, but it still happens.

Yeah, the invisible toon syndrome is fairly common. Be sure to restart your client (and/or pc) before siege to reduce the chances of this happening

I've had this happen quite often in siege. Everyone turns invisible, but you can still see their pets, mounts, name, or whatever. I don't know what causes it really, and usually logging on to siege is the first and only thing I do in the game. On the plus side, it does help with lag since there are fewer things to render...so there's that

Add me to this list of people who experience this bug. It seems to happen most often in highly populated areas, and yes the occasional highly populated siege.

To add to this though, there are even some times where this bug will correct itself mid-gameplay as well, and people begin to reappear one by one till its as if they were never gone.

happens to me pretty much every siege at low detail.

you can't click them anymore but tab still works, restarting client fixes and sometime just re-entering the battlefield is good enough

I get the same thing all over the place in-game as well as in siege. It's a client-side graphics issue. You basically just need to reload your client. It was funny the other day when I was walking about aotulio volcano helping someone quest, I couldn't see any of the mobs. All I saw was their weapon walking along the ground and their name above it.

I have seen floating heads. Now that was funny.

I noticed a few sieges ago, 2 players of the same guild would get hit by my thunderstorm and not come out of hide. Wasn't a problem with them though. Easy 2 shot with TS, they were. Problem disappeared though once they attacked, also.

I started having this problem a couple of months ago, one thing that seemed to work so you can see the actual toon is to lower the view distance. I would have my view distance at max and halfway through siege toons would start to dissappear and the only thing I saw were name tags, turned the distance to about halfway and it would be good for the rest of siege.

This is due to terrible terrible lag, and the characters not loading. Its actually usually a problem on your end, and is usually an indicator you are going to crash soon. It happens out of siege a lot too. Usually doing a client restart fixes it. The characters are not in hide of anykind, its just that your client dident load any textures for them due to some error or glitch on your end.

I had a panic moment in siege last night. On my screen, after going past an invis tower, I did not come out of invis. I'm walking around at full speed, in silhouette. I asked my guildies if they could see me, and they all said it was fine, I was visible. After about 45 sec it fixed itself, but the last thing you want is to be Jenny Giant running across the battle field with everyone yelling hax.

afaik it wouldnt matter so much logging in. the arena/siege is actually a slightly different graphics engine and has its own set of glitches. that being why wardens didnt crash people except in siege and arena.

but relogging before after playing a lot definitely helps with position lag which seem to double going into siege. ive havent seen this invis thing but since my internet is 2 cups and a super long piece of string...i see things that happened like 4 hours ago. nothing like taking Hilot when i'm in tosh.
