Is this happening to anyone else? whenever i join a game the stud texture is always too small to completely cover the brick and it leaves large empty transparent areas between textures. is this a bug? if so, how can i fix it?

The client is broken

They're working on a new client.

ah, alright. didn't know if i was the only one. thanks for the help.

I assume the character items like shirts and pants not appearing is a bug as well?

Yes, and that will be fixed in the new client.
