This thread is to track any gene errors that occur with the Fathom dragon breed release This thread is for the newly released Fathom genes only, and does not encompass previously released genes.
In this thread, players may report any errors they encounter with the new genes. These can be technical errors, or consistency issues. This thread is intended to focus on these potential errors so that they can be addressed swiftly
Please report any errors you encounter and we will do our best to correct them in a timely manner. This thread will close out 45 days after release, on July 29, 2024. After this time, players may report technical issues with these and other gene errors in the Modern Gene Error Backlog Thread, or the Ancient Gene Error Backlog Thread, but further consistency issues will not be accepted for review and will be considered working as intended.
Note that it may take a short while for the site's internal image cache to reflect the corrected image assets.

I will be deleting reports that are not relevant to the Fathom gene expansion new release, reports that have been corrected, reports are not considered an issue, duplicate reports, and discussion or chatter as I encounter/investigate them to keep the thread current with gene reports only.

Corrected Issues
- Eyes: Multigaze - All Fathom - The eye in the head was incorrectly colored to be earth for all elements. Fixed.
- Primary: Fade - All Fathom - The snout gradients were adjusted to better match moderns. Note that the lower jaw is considered part of the belly and is treated like the Obelisk.
- Primary: Flaunt - Fathom M, F - The jagged pattern was drawn further into the belly on M-Pose. Additional gradient color was applied to the chin on the Fathom F, M pose.
- Primary: Jaguar - Fathom H - The backs of the ears were patterned to match the adults and modern versions of the gene.
- Primary Jupiter - All Fathom - The darker gradient coverage was adjusted.
- Primary Petals - All Fathom - The markings on this gene were adjusted.
- Primary: Skink - Fathom M, H - The belly accent color gradient was extended.
- Primary: Skink- All Fathom - The highlight color across the eye was carried across the entire eye band.
- Primary: Tide - Fathom M - The basic ear fill color was present in this gene when it should not have been. Fixed.
- Secondary: Bee - The accent color of wasp was displaying on the wrists of the M & H wings was displaying on the secondary of Bee. F pose had transparent wing shadow softened. Fixed.
- Secondary: Blend - Fathom F, M - The gradient near the wing "wrist" was intensified.
- Secondary Butterfly - All Fathom - The markings on this gene were adjusted.
- Secondary: Constellation - Constellation was briefly uploaded to the incorrect directory, resulting in it not displaying. Fixed.
- Secondary: Eel - All Fathom - The pattern should be present on the chin and tail.
Secondary: Eye Spots - All Fathom - The pattern has been added to the chin and tail fins. - Secondary: Morph - All Fathom - The gradient accent color was made stronger to better match the other modern breeds.
- Secondary: Paisley - Fathom H - The arm fins of the hatchling received pattern like the adults had.
- Secondary: Paint - Fathom F - The Piebald markings on the chin and arm fins were given more variance in Piebald coverage.
- Secondary Saturn - All Fathom - The darker gradient coverage was adjusted.
- Secondary: Shimmer - Robin Fathom F - The hand-colored robin color for Fathom F had a corrupted file that resulted in it not showing up. Fixed.
- Secondary Spinner - Fathom F - Stray pattern was cleaned up near the table and the front wing gradient was adjusted.
- Tertiary: Capsule - All Fathom - The chin coverage was removed, and the doubled-up shadow layer removed. Fixed.
- Tertiary: Circuit- Fathom M - The circuit markings missing from the tail were restored.
- Tertiary: Crackle - All Fathom - The crackle markings had bleed corrected, and internal ear markings added in.
- Tertiary: Ghost - All Fathom - Fathom should had the nostril markings removed, as they have no nostrils. Fathom H pose had the gradient intensity on the head reduced.
- Tertiary: Firefly - All Fathom - The glow around the fireflies was intensified.
- Tertiary: Flecks - Fathom F, M - One of the gradients was set to an incorrect blend mode. Fixed.
- Tertiary: Koi - Fathom H - The scale highlights were made larger.
- Tertiary: Okapi - All Fathom - The Okapi markings on the tail were reduced to only cover the ending half of the tail rather than going up to the base.
- Tertiary: Peacock - Fathom F - The Eye Spots on the wings were reduced in size and increased in quantity.
- Tertiary: Polkadot - All Fathom - The polkadot markings were applied across all the arm and chin fins.
- Tertiary: Ringlets - Fathom H - The ringlets pattern bleed across the head spikes was fixed.
- Tertiary: Runes - All Fathom - The runes pattern was added to the base of the neck.
- Tertiary: Smoke - All Fathom - The smoke pattern was clipping into the ear color. Fixed.
- Tertiary: Soap - Fathom H - The ear was tinted differently than the adults. Fixed.
- Tertiary: Stained - Fathom F - Color bleed near the lower jaw of the F pose was corrected.
Known Issues
Post-Thread Issues
- Secondaries on Fathom F - Fathom F pose does not have the outside "wrist/hand" of the wing colored in the secondary colored and faded like the M and H pose do.
This issue is considered a technical issue as it is an inconsistency within the same breed, and will be actioned on shortly after this thread closes. This will be corrected last, after all consistency issues, as being able to batch action the templates to a new secondary base after all pattern issues have been corrected would be the most efficient way to handle this.
Working as intended
- Iridescent and Shimmer - These genes are hand colored and will have varying hues depending on breed. The shininess is considered working as intended.
- Wingtip Colors - The colors of the "fingers" and tips of the wing are the primary color, and will carry the corresponding primary gene pattern.
- Thylacine - The stripes following the wing segments/tips is considered working as intended and was a choice for the breed.
- Hatchling pose - The back rear leg being behind the tail is considered working as intended.
- Foam - The wing gradient on foam is considered working as intended.
- Fern - The swirl shaping is considered working as intended.
- Glimmer - The sparkles on Glimmer vary from breed to breed. The markings on Fathom are considered within the acceptable degree of variance for this rather varied gene!
- Speckle/Freckle - The spot size and groupings for this gene have always been incredibly varied from breed to breed. Like Dusthide, the smaller spots used are considered working as intended.
- Crystal/Ground - the inner ear color on this differs from the basic gene and many other patterns, but having the different inner ear color is consistent with other modern dragons with these genes, and the ear colors being what they are is considered a feature of the genes.
- Underbelly/Glimmer - This gene affecting the chin is considered correct, as Underbelly duplicates the belly area, but in a different color. Obelisks have their chins colored in fully with their belly and underbelly, and Bogsneak have a fade in their belly that is also faded in underbelly. Underbelly being faded on the chin is considered working as intended for this breed. (capsule couldn't appropriately fade on the chin. It's either there as "glass" filled with liquid or not there.)
