Customisations are looking good and detailed. Lots of extra options, good job so far. Hope it’s not over for anyone. But why no new faces though and so few body changes options for most races? We could really use things like
- Age slider (young/old would do)
- Expression slider (serene/snarly/arrogant) - this also alters idle pose [each race can have slight variations)
- Body size: e.g. ripped/normal/skinny -(night elves can have this because of DH and Nightborne models]
Trolls already have a bulkier model version used for Amani and Drakkari, humans do have a thin model - although that uses the forsaken skeleton instead - trimming down the musculature should be possible, although that might mean some serious gear adjustments.
Night elves can afford this because the Nightborne model has the thin versions of everything. However I was just imagining more ripped muscle definition and a slimmer trim down that might not require much gear reehashing. Or they can do it properly like they did for Night elves and trolls (via Nightborne and Amani/Drakkari) and just add them over time.
Face Overhaul:
Careful here, complete new faces are a lot of work, and while that’d be really appreciated I think it might be too much for laucnh.
However there are other things you can do with the current faces to give more variation that don’t require the extensive work of new faces
- Shape changes i.e. cheekbone (humans already get this)
- Age sliders - adds/removes wrinkles (same face just less/more wrinkled)
- Expression changes - content, serene, aggressive, arrogant smirk (should alter body idle pose too) - all faces already have expressions in animation.
- Eyebrow changes (Nelves have this already)
- Nose changes - many faces have noses you just can’t pick
Ofc there are many more things that can be added, like chin, forehead etc.
Regarding expression: Would be nice to be able to change your expression with a ‘/’ command and the changed expression alters the pose too or the pose alterantion can be exclusive to Character Creation/Barbershop
Specific Race Requests
Also I noticed we haven’t seen any sign of serious Highborne or Farstrider options
Night Elves:
Highborne arcane effects slider:
- Glowy hands
- Arcane glow tattoos
- Star decoration/glitter in hair as alternative to vines.
- Trim /neat options for eyebrows and beards (not sure why groomed beard disappeared, would like it back in addition to the trim version)
Blood Elves:
Farstrisder effects slider
- Body Tattoos with colours (like Alleria’s)
- Messier/wilder hair styles and beards (like Nelf new ones but their own versions)
- Scars (they added Lor’themar scars to night elves, but what about Belves?)
Trolls
Now not all the major troll options are in yet, so it’s hard to comment, I would however like
- More dreads and rasta styles
- Ear variations (like NElves got, make even more sense on trolls)
- Bone colour options
- Troll body size option (like the amani)
