Title: Official Item and Marking Pack
Post by: A.P.S. on May 15, 2018, 04:22:26 am

It seems nowadays, people across Feral-Heart use different item and marking packs. What if staff made an official item and marking pack that everyone used? I understand if staff is currently working on adding more of both, but I think it would be nice if players were able to submit entries or suggestions. Just a little idea for both staff and coders who would wanna help with a project like this! :3

Ooh!

I think this would be a wonderful idea. If I'm not mistaken though, I believe I saw one of the MODS say that they would have permission issues with it and etc. Though, this really would make everything so much more simple and uniformed. Great topic here!<3

It is pretty inconvenient having all these different marking packs around, especially when a person sees you as wearing something totally different from what you actually have on. Sadly when it comes to most of the item packs currently around (as Ailuska mentioned) we just don’t have the permissions to make them official to the game. Can’t say we’ve discussed adding any new items though... that might be something worth looking into soon :) Although it will probably just add to more of the item pack madness lol

I totally agree with the inconvenience part that ye mentioned, if everyone had the same one I can only imagine how much frustration it would save for future endeavors.
New items? HYPE HYPE HYPE. YES.

Yeah, that's why I thought users could submit items to be added. I didn't even know about some of the newer packs until recently. I had been using legendary for the longest time, both items and markings, and had been told several different kinds, which was annoying to a new player. Overtime, I knew more what I was doing or getting into, but I just think it'd be nice to have one official pack and players who could create these things could help. I'd love to get back into marking designs! I never could though because of the marking cap that the packs filled.

We can free up some slots in the marking capacity by removing the MP# markings, as I've never seen a character use those markings. The 'Shinx' marking appears twice, so remove the second Shinx marking and that's around 7 slots free(I can't remember how many MP# markings there are).

I think there are roughly 10? 12? Not real sure. But yeah, there are some markings that no one ever used, which is why user submitted ones have a higher chance of being used. Or it might help, unless the user creates a marking based off an OC or something.

Also things from other games or something were kinda weird. I mean, people might make pokemon so I understand some of those, but the random symbols from other things were kinda weird.

I actually may temporarily delete my current markings and see how I do at making new ones. It's been a while but I do now have a drawing tablet to work with! :D

Wouldn't an 'official' marking pack be default? And others that weren't default would be hard to say "Yeah we recommend this", you could but... might run into controversy.
Legendary would be quick to update if new markings came out. Only seen the MP# markings used a few times, most people wouldn't notice if they were swapped out...

I mean one that completes the list without downloading other packs. I'm not sure if there's a max item limit though, but there is for markings.

If FH were to do an official marking pack, it'd have to be a darn good one, because, like most people, the majority of my characters use markings from Legendary Markings. I'd like to see remakes of (at least) the most popular markings from LM, rather than something entirely different that wouldn't work as a good replacement for people who use LM.

I kinda feel weird saying this but I believe part of the reason people don't use the default markings in because they want to be original. Not exactly that the default ones are bad, but I do sometimes feel weird using them when I have so many others. Oh well.

I think, even though new items seem nice, that it would be easier to add the Legendary items & Markings to the official Feral Heart markings. I agree replacing the old MP# markings, they just seem like a waste of space and no one uses them. Some Feral Heart members the FHBR item pack which is a put-together item pack of Legendary, Girlys Item pack, and some other creators' item packs as well. Luckily the FHBR item pack does not mess with the Legendary item pack at all but if the legendary item pack became the *official* FH item pack then adding new items may mess with members who use the FHBR item pack. I'm not sure. I agree totally that we should have an official item pack but maybe not add new items. Re-textures could work though.
