Title: New ears, also idea to add items
Post by: Filougon on March 02, 2011, 02:10:54 pm

Well first start with that ear idea.
I really would love to see jackal ears in FH. But not that realistic ones, more these Anubis-like ears.

Like that.

Or that.

Also I've got that item idea.
What about adding items in FH, but not like in IT, I think, it should be like adding spikes on a chara in it's create/edit-mode.
There could be a list of items, like that lists of mesh in MM, u could select an item and place it on a various part of the chara's body.

Well, hard to describe, my english is gone, too, today.
I hope u can understand.

I think the item-in-map-maker-idea could be worked out, but I don't think it could be worked out where you can just put it on any part of the body.

When you make items for a character, you match the item to one of the character's bones, which you made when animating the character. This is so that the item looks as if it's "fitted" on the character when it moves, but really, the animations are just the same. Do you understand what i'm saying? lol..


I think certain things should be added in MM that could be considered 'items'. For example, I think different kinds of horns should be added, as well as different variations of teeth.. claws.. etc etc.

I hadn't thought about that animation problem. It really is a problem, if u put items like ropes, it would look pretty awful if these ropes only "hang down" while running.

I think if items were added at all, the only proper way to go about it would to be give everyone the same selection of items to pick from the character edit screen. I, II, III, IV, V
I is the name/proportions, II is the meshes (ears, manes, etc), III is markings, IV is preset, colors, etc, and also the current end/create point. If items were added, V would be a list of items. Each character would only get up to four items to wear at once, with no 'repeating items' (a character wearing the same item twice).

This eliminates pesky in game "WANT TO TRADE ITEMS?" and "ANYONE HAVE _____ ITEM???" Which happened a lot in IT and was rather annoying.

Also, no personal items. Maybe for staff, because they helped /MAKE/ the game and deserve that little special thing, but no special items for random members asking for one or for friends of staff. :B

 The ears... I'm fine with the current ear selection ingame. The items... I like the way Kah is thinking of it. The "HAY WHO HAZ THIS ITEM?" was really annoying in IT. But think about the personal item issue, there will always be beggars who want personal items. The fact that only the Staff gets them wouldn't stop that. (If they didn't that'd be a different story, but they do deserve a little something for making the game.)

Then maybe no personal items at all, nothing to complain about?

The ear idea is neat. But I think there are enough ear selections ingame. Plus, the dragon ears kind of look like the Anubis ones.
Now items, I have to agree with Kahara and Gem on this. Even though I never played IT, the 'ANYONE WANT TO TRADE ITEMS??? (:' message seems annoying. o.e I think keeping it to a 'everyone has the same items' idea would be great.

*ninja'd*

If everyone can take the same items from the create/edit-mode, that problem with these beggers would be done.

Btw, the dragon ears are Feline-only, I think. And other wolf ears are a way to sharp for me.

I agree on the ears. They look cool. And also, the canine mesh doesn't have as many ears I don't think? I can't remember.

I'm not sure about the items. We don't want it too look like FH is copying this from Arokai. But I think it would be fine if it was just things that would enhance your character's build or appearance. Such as horns, fangs, back spikes, etc.
