Title: Armor/Weapon - Engravings.
Post by: Birds on April 09, 2011, 06:38:29 pm
Maybe for retirement, to know that the weapon may belong to someone, you get an emblem put on your weapon/armor to make it unique. I think this would be cool to show certain details about a member of the community. I think it would promote the reitrement system and make it more wanted, for lack of a better word, so people have that desire to build up. I think at retirement, you could pay some gold and make the engraving on the item of your choice. Just so people with gold flowing threw their teeth can spend it maybe.. Just an Idea.. (:

It would essentially require a new and retextured item for every single heirloom currently existing in the game.  See you next year.

a unique texture on each item..... think about how that would bog down the server every time you loaded a new map.  lagggggg
I do think a different texture overall for all the masterworked weapons would be nice....  just not a unique one for every single person

Undoable and everybody already finds heirlooms interesting enough.

It's actually perfectly possible, but it would take a lot of work. We do NOT want the devs to add a new item for every mw item in the game. It'd take a lot of time away from the work they are already doing, both to make the items, AND to write a script that would force switch your item for the "ornate one", which is what the game would have to do everytime you logged in with that weapon. Meow came up with the idea of making a separate "Ornate items" texture pack, kind of like the banner pack. You can put it in, and have all the ornate items you want. Drawback is that all items with the same model would be made ornate, but maybe someone else can take the idea and come up with a solution.
