hi
having had quite enough of those brown, ugly cloaks. the first thing i tried was dying them and some rather strange things happened.
first i tried dying a barbarian cloak (one of those formerly white ones). when i logged in, it was visible, as were my wings, they were poking right though the cloak. i dyed it and the became invisible. the wings were still there. no matter what color i used, the cloak never changed color in my inventory, and you can't see it anymore on my char.
then i bought a cloak of protection +1, which is, i believe a bioware stock item. no problem dying it and the wings were covered by the cloak. although when i bought it, it was brown - as were all the cloaks in the shop, even though the default color of a cloak of protection +1 is supposed to be green now.
then i put both in a chest in the bank, thinking it might reset them or whatever.
when i took them back out, the barbaran cloak looked a bit different, is now dyable, ie. the color of the inventory icon changes, but still does not show up on my char.
the cloak of protection +1 has changed to the default toolset green and now looks exactly as i think it is supposed to. it still is visible and covers the wings. dying works too.
i can also make my wings disappear completely, without having to wear a cloak at all, by first equipping the protection cloak, directly switching to the barbarian cloak and then removing it.
hmm....
