I love the idea of using the BG colors for heraldic items (Just like the Final boss/Warham mod up-loader) For example: the great helm being colored yellow due to the FCC BG color is pretty neat-o when worn with plate.

Good luck with your military service, & hope you can keep the updates coming. Maybe even a mod of your own?  :wink:

I really like these, I hope most of them make it to the patch. Since you're at it maybe you could also do a few helmets? There's plenty of hats that have multiple different items just for the different colors. I think most of the players will want to pick one to match their other equipment any way. With this type of heraldic bg color type the choice would be a lot easier and I think better in most cases. Also some excess items could be then removed making more room for other items and/or reducing the stress.

Just some helmets that could fit:

I was just pointing that gradients would not be possible.

Plus, this sort of thing is being done from long ago (remember the bright pink my old friends banner?), and this would not affect it that much...
Yeap i remember them and their banner and i think they were fucking up the game's atmosphere .
we could also limit certain colors serverside if it's gonna be a problem.
That sir , would be perfect.
Please no fluo color like the current SoA background, I feel like playing Halo when I'm on siege and SoA too.
Couldn't agree more they are like these:

Actually there is already a censoring of banners and inappropriate or unfitting banners are removed by the admin/dev team.

I will give it a try. However, the texture is only 512x512 px, so it will be hard to mask this pixel porridge.
I've already thought about helmets, and agree that it should work great for some. And maybe even Wisby gauntlets could be done.

Added the other mail with surcoat.

I've also tried to colorize the native heraldic mails. Did you know that their textures are VERY sloppily done? They are a complete mess. There is no underlying cloth structure at all, just a mess of red and black. I'll probably have to copy some cloth structure over from other armors. If I can get that done, it would also make the heraldic version look much better.

More bad news: I can't get Narf's brigandine to work, because it is a multi-part model. The colorization for the torso works as usual, but then it applies this torso tableau also for the arms and legs :evil:. Why did Narf have to make this model multipart, WHY?
