- Do like the Ninjas, retexture old armours to fit our preferences, and spread our ninja-patch-hacks among ourselves. You may think we look silly in steppe armor, but for us we look uber-cool.
Is it possible you message me this patch? I would really love it to implement it for my own version.
As to the rest: I wasn't having an issue with the devs because i could roughly understand everything they did or did not do and think they are doing an awesome job in most things. But i simply cannot understand this. There are people in the playerbase who are interested in doing stuff and helping out.
The way i see it there are two ways to handle this:
Either
you welcome that and actually (at least try to) work together (even when its in your own time, no need to haste. Its still free work youre doing...). Which would mean in this case: When people model/texture stuff and most of the devs agree: implement it. Its purely for benefit isnt it not?
Or when you
do not welcome that: Just say so. So people wont spend time on stuff which is not wanted by the devs anyway. In this way a lot of frustration, i think from both sides, could be avoided. I think a simple (sticky-)post for that would suffice.
At the moment people just put a lot of effort into it but (i guess) get no right feedback or get simply ignored, which can be really perplexing and stop them from doing that, which would be a shame in my opinion. The work of all the people makes this mod so great.
Cheers,

tl,dr: When you(devs) want to get help for items: Try to work together and do your part, if you(devs) dont want help with items, say so and a lot of frustration is avoided.
