Misc.

Post by wolfsword »

Some many minor things would make it a bit more fun rp-ing1.First of all emotes/actions, such as waving hands or twirling around can be done by #me-ing, and having a sitting action, or sitting down (standing on a chair with your legs hanging through doesn't really look cool to the new people, scared me when i tried i thought it was a glitch)so possible actions:
#me Sits - char sits down, if theres a chair they sit on it, if not then they sit on the ground cross-legged
#me waves - char waves right hand, for a few seconds
#me drinks from goblet/beermug - char's hand rises to head, showing a cup-like object
#me claps - char's hands come together three times
and other things etc...
2.Clothing....
Ok, i think i've asked before or saw before but i'll ask again:
Can the clothes people wear be visible? Maybe when you create your char you may choose what color your shirt/tunic is, and the color of your pants/leggings, as well as choosing what color for the cloak or not having a cloak at all. This is because, too many people seem different and i kept getting two halflings mistaken about 2-3 times (sorry shingo :wink: )
and if Illarion is going to grow, it'll get a bit irritating asking people OOC or IG what their name is. And, when you do recognise people, you know exactly how they look, so you shouldn't forget how they look.
3. Misc things
I found that Illarion has cutlery pieces: forks, knives, spoons etc. If its possible, make it that if you eat a dish or soup or anything needing these tools, make the food % go up by 10% by using the cutlery (such as in DBZ: Supersaiyan warriors i think, if you used chopsticks or a drinking straw on food/drink you would get more out of it)
And having different cup, one thing:
I don't understand why beer can't be poured into a goblet and wine can't be putten into a mug?, you could if you tried today or back then.
Having a new kind of cup (note, goblets -usually made of silver back then- were used by the rich, as well as glass cups) using a wooden cup will make the price cheaper from it, but making the wooden cup it must be glazed by honey so water doesn't come through cracks.

Thats it really...say what you think

fine ideas.
they are written here about every five months.
and the answer is allways the same:

are you the one, to draw all the graphics needed for your ideas?

Yeah, thats the main problem with being able to visually equip things, the massive amounts of artwork needed.

You guys could probably post on Gamedev.net's help wanted section of the forum, you could get artists that want to work for free for their resume. Some people dedicate their time to projects which are in their infancy, and usually fail, so working for a completed project would be like gold to them. You could also get a few dedicated Lua programmers. People there LOVE working on completed games, with a goal.
