Show Helm Reset on Zone
The bug: Show my helm resets upon zoning, forcing the player to re-click it every time they zone.
The Fix: Below
So I did a quick search and found the code to fix this. I am going to link it here in case you would like to see what the changes are. It can probably done for P99 and R99 codebase.
Check it out =)

***Note its the second submission that is the patch that works.
I would very much appreciate this fix. I play a class/race that I like but do not enjoy the helm graphics on. Little and generally (I'm assuming) easy to fix details like this go a long way towards player immersion. In my perspective its a priority issue that affects red and blue equally.
Thanks. |
