I wish there was a way to make the lions not puke green. That **** looks like they are diseased or something.

I seriously wish there was too. I've tried to get that off with no success. The lions would look 100x better if they were a natural yellow golden color, not green. ._.
It would be cool to have brown wolves too, not just the grey.
And white tigers. =P
They should give barbs an option for fur colors. It's only fair since every other race can pick skin color.

I keep seeing more and more people with edited eyes. xD And lots of fishes with the ini **** red hair codes for some reason o_o

A simple change like letting barbs pick fur color would probably make many many people happy.

Is it just Sanctuary or are we having such rather new edits on the other servers too? o_o

People are simply becoming bold. All too easy when no one cares.


Dearest PWE: Are your fingers too broken to fix this little statement in the ToS? To even give us a >PROPER< response as to why this isn't allowed? Putting in pack sales giving you a little carpel tunnel?

At this point, a HUGE chunk of the playerbase is doing/has done this already. I, myself, have not figured out how to do this properly, or I would have done it a long time ago. PWE could just say yes to this, or sift through the hundreds of players to find the edited ones and ban them. At least then, we'll know where their priorities are.

"Because I said so", is a cool excuse parents give their children. We aren't your children, we are paying customers. Stop ignoring this and treat us as so. It's not right that all the other versions/servers of this game are allowed to do this, save for the US servers.

Is it Possible to edit the .INI file to alter the body of a Barb to give it more a female appearance?

It should be... You can make 'm look like sticks so I guess you could give 'm some curves too...

Mimiroppu: I'm pretty sure lot's of ppl are willing to help you with that depending on what you want... Just PM someone that seems to know much about it and looks friendly to you (you'll find plenty in the screenshot forums)... Just remember no one other then you is responsible for the risk of getting banned (though I heard it rarely happens)... b:cute

Is there a thread of .INI edits anywhere? I did a brief look but didn't find any.. I'm curious if maybe showing the posative .INI edits and how awesome they can be would be a convincing point? I don't mean the big heads or fat bodys or things that are horribly out of place but actual well designed .INI edits.

I can understand the desire to not want a bunch of big headed, out of place Chars running around, but if maybe the Devs were given Screenshots of things like Female barbs or something a bit more complicated like that, that flow seemlessly into the game and does not distrubt the game. if maybe they would start seeing the value of allowing it. I mean to be honest if it was my choice and as liberal as I am with things like this (I voted yes) I would never allow something that is going to do nothing but make my game ugly and somewhat cartoonish(Altho I do love the big eyes on Female chars)

There is this thread called "Rate a character, hot or not" in the screenshot forums... Search long enough there and you'll find nicely .ini-edited characters...

So a little over 700 people have voted on this, a bit over 600 want this rule to change, yet this thread is still here and PWE simply don't care because it's their "rule" which has no meaning behind it, my guess is they won't change it because then less people will buy hair fashions from the cash shop.

Well you have to understand it's not as easy as just saying, "Ok have at it." In my opinion you have a lot of people abusing the ability with Huge heads and super fat bodys, etc. A suggestion would be to allow these changes to be made through the Make over scrolls which are basicly .ini edits which might also be a way to control the .ini edits.

I would imagine they have to figure out how to incorporate this into the game. I think the fact that they are not Banning left and right for these edits is a sign that they do understand the players want this but to keep the game the way it's suppose to be and continues to follow the storyline/culture of the game they can't just say it's ok and let it get out of hand and run wild.

Non of us know if the "Powers that be" are actually talking about this subject for all we know they could be and are just trying to figure out how to allow us to do it.

They could just create presets themselves and put them into the right folders with a patch...

This requires work though, and we know how long it takes to get work in CN done. b:surrender

Just let the players do it themselves...

This doesn't actualy have to be done by CN... Staff could also make like you know, downloadable allowed presets... But I wouldn't even dare to ask even that little amount of work to them... b:surrender

But since noone will start over from a preset when making over an old character... We'd be ini editing directly again b:laugh
The dog chasing his own tail kinda. lol

*sigh*I don't even get these strict rules on here annyway... And it it realy that hard to put "with the exeption of small .ini edits" in their ToS? Sites I hang out on also change their ToS every once in a while... I don't see the big deal... They could even post guides to allowed edits on the site... Meh must be just me... b:surrender

I'll tell you that it is very difficult to edit a barb to have female curves. The body structure is very male looking with the broad shoulders, muscular arms/legs, and the head is male looking (lion barb for example with its mane). It isn't hard to just increase the head size or make a dwarf barb, but trying to curve the barb to give it **** and thinner arms that don't look freaky is difficult.

Wow so I just realized something.

To everyone mentioning abuse of char sizes: Every other server can do this but the US ones. Why do we have to get treated so differently?

@Frankieraye: WTF? Are you scared of us? Posting in other threads about .ini edits and ignoring this one. Typical. There is no real reason not to allow this. I feel like the most broken record on the planet at the moment. Couldn't you even take the time out to talk to us and explain? Or even set some ground rules and work with us. Hell, ANY GM could take the time out from their "busy" schedule. genotypist seems like a friendly person, why not him? I try to have the utmost respect for Admins and their rules, but this is simply a stupid, half-assedly enforced rule. A rule against people's vanity and creativity.

We should start spamming General Discussions to get a response or something. Those people get answered the fastest, lol.

JK.

He already responded to this thread a long time ago, and I doubt that he intends to respond just to say the exact same thing all over again.b:surrender

Go ahead and try, I already have. It isn't possible. You also can't shrink the hands or feet, so even if you could get the body remotely correct, the hands and feet would still be huge. I've managed to get close with the arms, legs, and thin upper body, but it just doesn't look good at all.

Pls, pls, pls share!

I totally agree with this post. I just learned about it and I must say that my wizard looks way better. I think it should be okay for a user to make them have red hair or so. There isnt even a TRUE red color on the swatch thingy. And its whatever if people make ugly characters. I have seen some ugly characters and just laugh it off. It gets pretty funny if they wanna deal with a char for that long more power to them

Idk I just think it is silly. I play in other servers for a long time and come to pwi because of cash shop reasons. Almost a third of the my en server and a majority of the cn have edited characters. I regret transferring to pwi now. It only means the pwi GMs are not checking their player reports often enough. I doubt a character with a slightly edited face and hair is a problem, but one with lines as a body is, obviously. Why can't we just have a little more freedom? Atleast give us an advanced trans scroll...
