The Official "Add new armours" thread. UPDATED, please check!

[Tydeus]

Those are not "Waiting to get implemented", they should pass stylistic test, quality test, they should have a decent polycount and adequate texture resolution, then the author should give his permission to use them in mod and only after that they are "waiting to get implemented" which is not one button task either. The ones Sagar mentioned here are way closer to a "Waiting to get implemented" state.

How many of the proposals actually pass these tests?

does anyone know how I can make the custom items that I added , show up on the cheat menu??

[Zlisch_The_Butcher]

Panos, you don't need to do that at all to test the stuff ingame, the simplest way to test this is just by replacing shit in the brf files, I've taken the liberty of making a very detailed tutorial of 3 pictures for you.

(click to show/hide)

Open the two different brf files, select the item you wish to test and click copy,

then go over to the openbrf window of the file you wish to temporarely/permanently replace for testing purposes and press ctrl+v or paste.

Rightclick on the two armors (and later do the same for all lods), name the original one something random, and name the replacement what the original one was named.

Then you save the brf file and the items should be replaced anywhere they're used.

this is how we roll in HellaSS baby 

[Nordwolf]

You didn't put the textures in the folder or didn't assign a material in BRF editor.

devz, why say that armor must be decent quality to be in crpg while keeping this armor still ingame?!?

You have to do something similar to what I've done with the winged great helmet issue. Link to the topic -> http://forum.meleegaming.com/general-discussion/fair-not-fair-genius/msg709457/#msg709457 . You can skip the combining part of the model construction etc. but you have to focus on adding the model to the group of models and rename some shit. With bigger patch my helmet thingy got cleared but due to this small instruction "how to..." I reinded myself how to do it so I could do that again. I hope you will get some info from that topic. It's a lot of work if you want to check every armour so it'll take you quite some time.

Good luck and keep it going. I'd offer my help with checking stuff&shiet but I'll be pretty busy soon so no chance I guess

Fucking awesome stuffs on the list.

Removing things is a big no-no(people will lose looms?), replacing them on the other hand is a possibility. Of course, we'd need an appropriate replacement to begin with.

[Panos_]

there is no need to remove nothing from the game, just add something new, I believe that with a playerbase that big, we need a lot of armours.

I`m really hoping that dev`s will recruit a couple of new item balancers to help them a bit , like they did with Fips, who is doing a fantastic job so far.

If they've loomed any of these awful armors, then they deserve to be punished for their poor judgement...

Just kidding. Perhaps a loom refund can be offered, or some other compensation. If it's difficult to judge what can go, we may as well hold a poll to see what armors the community wants to remove together.

Yeah, I think the problem comes down to balance. While having all of these armors would be absurd, most of them would make great additions to the variety and replacements for some of the old and unused armors in the mod.

Again, I must suggest adding the items into the game with stats of already existing items that are similar,  Just giving players more cosmetic options. I feel as if only a select few would have a problem with this.

We'll likely be doing this in the future for certain things, been doing it with helmets for a long time now.
