Definitive edition clothes bugging out

[Rembhorn]

Look,Larian,it's great that you tried to make clothes have actual physics rather than have them be simply animated,but it just doesn't work. There was nothing wrong with capes,skirts and robes in the classic version,so why mess with them to the point of making this otherwise almost flawless game look like a mess in this one aspect.
Here's a quick collage that shows just how broken it is with skirts and some basic clipping with a lot of clothes

Yeah, i have the same issue. Either fix the physics or make it an option in the menu, so everyone can be happy.

Huh, it sounds like DE added alot of new bugs and problems to the game along with old ones but didn't add as much content as it was hyped up to do.

Agreed,I was looking through the options menu for a way to turn physics off.

I think that regardless of the new bugs DE is still the better way of the two to experience original sin 2. I just hope they patch this stuff out sooner rather than later since having more visual glitches does make the definitive edition seem a bit less definitive

I am facing this issue as well. I have stopped my playthrough until they fix this. This physics and consequent clipping of armors in really annoying.

[Rembhorn]

It might take a while to fix,however the clipping and glitching isn't as prevalent in later game,so if you haven't played original sin 2 before I'd recommend to just push through it or play the classic version.

So, the glitchy physics is caused by the change to a new physics engine. The clothes were never animated in any version of the game. I've heard on the grapevine that the physics will be fixed on the next patch.

There is no fallback for the clothing without physics; just turning it off would look even worse than it already is, developing animations for the clothing against the movement animations is a non-starter, and switching back to the old physics engine would take too much work.

I haven't heard of any problems with the console versions, so the PC version of the physics engine they're using now is probably just broken. They are aware of the problem, and they will fix it. It's just not as urgent because there it is not game breaking, and players can fall back on classic.

Sorry to bring this topic up again, but apparently this hasn't been fixed yet! I've started to play the game recently and I'm having these visual glitches with armors and clothes.

Right there with others, got myself a new rig to experience Divinity 2 in all its glory, now I'm just looking at ladybits with skirts flowing upwards.

Yeah, it's annoying me a lot as well. Noticed it from the very moment I was creating my character, cycling through different class presets, and once I saw the capes falling through the character models it's hard not to notice again.

Just looks like such an obvious and jarring visual glitch, it's especially bad to see it since character creation itself and I have to say it left me feeling really disappointed considering I waited very long to finally play it with a friend of mine.

I really hope they fix it soon, if they even plan on it.

There's still no fix for this. Doesn't look like there will be one, since it's mid-2019 and the problem is still there.

[Sparrow]

Still no fix in 2020, I don't think it will ever be looked into. It's a shame, it looks terrible.
