Choices of Id - Another idea to consider.

Post by Simonic Jace »

Believe me, I LOVE Illarion and I was just wondering if it was possible to include a system in an upcoming client where we can choose our own hair and clothes colour.
It would add some individuality to the characters and it would make it easier for us to tell friend and foe apart.

yes but probably in a very different way than the one you had in mind.
there will be *no* change in graphics. but i can imagine a text-based system where you can add such character-descriptions (e.g. color of hair etc.)

@Clothing:  this changes a bit too often, but if it can be done, do it.

@Race:  I think someone can tell this just by looking at what grapics are there.

Yes, words are better than nothing, but what keys are you going to use to trigger all this?

@wearing..

I think that this has been suggested by me before, but its time to bring it up along this other conversation.
How about "using" other players to see what they are currently wearing?
Like..
(shift+ player = pop up like under, close when you move or either click the little yellow "X".)

How about this?

Err, Caranthir, the image path is a bit wacky.... I have seen many links turn out like this and I wonder how it happens.  Why does it happen?!  This is confusing me!  Oh well, I saw the image anyways ;).  Nice amulet :biggrin:
