LINK TO THREAD

someone necroed that thread, so please dont post there.

on the topic:

apparently all the presets we use are made by players
which begs the question, how they get multi-hued/colored hair?
cause last i checked, you cant do that thru the editor

i put forth this question for the players to discuss

    When you choose the hair type (not style) there are three shown. Scroll down to see the 4th one (rainbow).

    There is one setting that gives you a kinda streak/highlight looking hair. That's not it?

    the highlight is only red, and you cant alter the color of it :(

    also: the "fiery" BM preset, among a few others... how did they get those off-shades of colors O_o

    Yeah, the no scroll bar is why most people don't know it's there. I think it's click on one and press the down arrow or use the mouse wheel, it's been a while since I was in the character creation window to get there. (and I don't have access to the game right now)

    Now those I agree are questionable edits.

    Everything has its beginnings, but it doesn't start at one. It starts long before that... The world is born From zero. The moment zero becomes one is the moment the world springs to life. One becomes 2. 2 becomes 10. 10 becomes 100. taking it all back to one solves nothing. so long as zero remains... One.. Will eventually grow to 100 again.

    oh frelling awesome, found it b:victory

    there's two secret styles, the rainbow one and one that makes like textured braids

    screenies posted below, for the rainbow one. to make the off-shade hairs (like the BM "Fiery" preset with it's dark red) you just use the rainbow hair style, then change the color. this is shown below with red and yellow

    Scroll bar would be nice. I would never have known without reading the forums before.

    Are you allowed to hijack your own thread? :o I'll go look now. b:cute

    This thread should become a petition for a scrollbar. Honestly, how hard could that be?

    To me it seems like more of a bugfix (scrollbar for that selection not present like the others are) than a suggestion unless we are suggesting that bugs get fixed.

    I don't think it would hurt to send a ticket under the "gameplay" category, but I'll mention it as well.

    Thanks Spoons, I was mostly kidding around, we know you can't do anything to fix these things we find so please don't think we're actually holding you accountable.
