Topic: Tattoo or just me.

I don't know if anyone else if having this issue but; Kinect doesn't like my tattoo'd left arm.  I'm not sure if it's just Your Shape, or whether it'll happen on other titles, but Your Shape really struggles to pick up my arm; I just have a floaty hand! Funny, but annoying, since I have to wear full length sleeved tops to work out.  It has its positives in that I sweat out more, but still it's a mite annoying.

Another quirk is it doesn't like my white/grey hair.  I have a face and no head hah.  Again could just be a Your Shape issue, but I thought I'd put this topic out there.

Any similar stories, or has my tattooist used some secret black ink that's radioactive?

I have to say I have difficulty with Your Shape in reconising my limbs all the time or even my moves! It annoyed the hell out of my when I was doing side kicks but non were showing up.

I quite the personal trainer becasue on the 2 set of moves it wasnt picking them up at all, no matter how in time I was with the trainer

When I play Your Shape I usually do it without a shirt (one of the perks of working out at home) I have both arms sleeved, a full chest piece, and my right ribs covered, yet have not had any issues with the Kinect following me.  Though I think the hair thing is just a Your Shape issue as I never have anything above my eyes.

Haha, spooky eyeheadman.

I think it's because I stand directly under the main light source of the room.  Not to worry, I don't mind sweating like a hog anyway

That would probably do it as I too stand under the main light.

I have the same problem with my sleeves and chest piece, but only during the daytime.  So, my options are work out in a sweater during the day or after dark....

I don't know if it's just Your Shape that has a problem, as I couldn't calibrate my sensor either until I put on a sweater.  Weird!

Perhaps Kinect is just trying to get you in the holiday spirit :]

My Your Shape also misses moves I'm doing, to be honest I might not be getting them all perfect but the basics are there and sometimes it means I score a big fat Zero - this used to annoy me a lot as the little green dots in that right hand corner are as addictive as achievements - however, like you I now ignore the trainer voice and just do the exercises. Thankfully the game unlocks the next levels regardless of performance.

I am having exactly the same problem as Gizmo2k. In my case the tattoo is on the right arm. At the moment I am wearing full sleeves to get rid of this problem. I also seriously feel that the ink used is radioactive. Anyway I am happy to note that I am not the only one who is having this problem.

Radioactive ink? I'm eager to know what superpowers you have, now.

Yeah, that's a problem I have. Two lights in my lounge, and one is hanging directly over my Kinect playing space. No other game has had a problem, but Your Shape seems to cut my head off every time! If I turn that light off, there's no problem at all.
