    appearance mod won't dye, dye's don't have color samples

    https://1drv.ms/v/s!AlRMFTSTd4WMhyyaAV6hJF6XFBQJ
    So when you're selecting dyes the circle that shows you what the dye looks like they're blank for the new skins. Also the system corruption appearance mod is not taking dyes. There are others that are not working as well but the devs can figure that out I don't got the time to go through all the combinations. As a suggestion I would like to see the symbol or the name of the gear set on the appearance mods

    I'm lost here. I am using appearance mods with black dye and they dye just fine. Is there a particular set/item you are trying to dye? It might be just the pieces you are trying to dye.

    Right now most of my builds are using Hunter's Fury appearance mods, but the others are using 5.11 for the most part as I exclusively use 5.11 in real life for all of my gear needs, so I like to replicate that in game as well (I really hope the devs toss in a visual for the new 5.11 RUSH100 that the company just released IRL). So I know those work.

    If you can let us know what gear combinations you are trying to dye maybe we can help find if there is a bug or not.

    Are you having issues with all appearance mods, or just that one bag?

    I have noticed that some pieces only change minor things like straps or a small swatch of a backpack or chest piece. I have holsters that only change bounding fabric if using a pattern, but change everything, including the straps, if using a solid color.

    Huh. I have honestly never even heard of a backpack called "This Gift". Is that a DZ exclusive? I definitely do not have that one so I can't try to reproduce it for you.

    I thought the video showed everything but I guess not I put it up at like 2:00 in the morning I was tired. It's Providence gear the appearance mod is system corruption set, and the dye is a full gear dye and I also select multiple dyes and the backpack doesn't change at all. It's not just the backpack it's all of the set. And the other part of it as you can see in the video the actual die tile does not have the representation of what it's supposed to look like , the round circles that shows a sample of the color they're just white they don't show the actual color those two are the new dyes you get for completing the summit

    I just started playing around with it it was late so I didn't make a list of what wasn't working. The backpack does come from the DZ it might be open world now I'm not sure. I would also suggest to the devs to put the names of the gear sets or the symbols on the appearance mods cuz I don't have those individual piece names memorized

    The only dyes the System Corruption set displays are the camouflage/solid colour dyes from open world crates and from apparel boxes. I wonder whether this is intentional or bugged. Images included for reference.

    I don't think so because I believe I tried the full teal which is a solid color and it didn't work but I'll check it again when I get home

    Some gear just don't change when a dye is applied to them.

    It's either a bug or intended.
