    First time post, long time onlooker. Sorry if location is incorrect.

    I would like to begin by thanking all of those who have worked so hard to make this game great. I have enjoyed hrs. and hrs. of play, so you have my gratitude.

    I also know its kinda lame to ask someone else to do work for me, considering I have contributed nothing. If these requests are too frivilous (since I know more important matters are being worked on) just disregard.

    1. Could somebody make me some loose flowing white pants for my monk. I like my monk bare-chested (uh...we're just friends) but would like some pants.

    2. I noticed that the adamantium breastplate was plate armor, just purple. I was wondering if any of the basic armors and mwk armors could come in diffrent colors too for customization. (I was thinking of the basic crayola 8 colors)

    Thanks
    The Big Bruiser

    Well, they could come in different colours, but that's too much work
    if you ask me. Having to do every type of armour and changing its
    appearance does not only involve simple colour swapping but also a
    lot of text editing, fiddling in the protos, .mes files etc. It's just not
    worth the effort. Furthermore, different colour versions of the armours
    would take up a massive amount of proto numbers which are limited
    (if I am not mistaken). Now, making new cloaks, hats and robes is not that
    bad, as it involves much less work, takes up less proto numbers and
    looks much more realistic than a yellow breastplate, for instance . Trust
    me, I did a few types of armour, and it can be really frustrating if you
    make one typo and the whole game crashes because of it. I'll say yes to:
    new types of armour, some unique items AND clothing, the rest would be
    too tedious, a process.

    Now, don't take this too serious. It's just my opinion as a modder. Making
    those pants, is a good idea. I will certainly look into it... Hmm I think we
    have a few models which are topless. Try talking to the woman in the
    labourers' camp. She'll make you a tattoo (ask for the celtic one, for some
    reason the other option does not change anything in your appearance).

    Thanks for the reply.

    Sorry, I didn't know how much work the different color armor would be.

    As for topless monks, I was thinking more of bruce lee in "enter the dragon", than a weekend at the playboy mansion, but whats good for the gander is good for the goose. Topless Female Monks would be formitable.

    Thanks for considering the monk pants.

    Don't be. ;) There's nothing to be sorry for. I was
    just explaining how tedious the process was. Apparently
    the emotions that follow while doing so have influenced
    my previous post. xD

    Bruce Lee you say? That can be arranged. Not sure when
    though...

    maggit - IIRC there are actually only two tga's for the adamantium - if its the fullplate armour he's taking about, it does look more purpleish than the breastplate os the breastplate is just new proto entry for an armour that was already in the game.

    RE: the flowing pants; can't be done, don't have a flowing pants model of any colour to work with.

    Look at the cloaks & see what animates them, perhaps. We could have pants flapping everywhere!

    its not quite as simple as that, they would need their own mesh. I tryed using the robes skirt but it didn't work properly.

    Cujo, even if you can't do flowing baggy director's pants, some new trousers for the afore-mentioned barechested look would indeed be good.

    Starting with a certain half-orc monk who is crying out for a pair...

    O yeah, I did that already...

    I guess it would be ludicrously awkward to combine the two?
