Weapon Dying

Kitty_mode - Heavens Tear

How cool would it be if you could dye your everyday weapons any color you want XD I know theres weapon skins but im talking bout dying your weapons just like you do fashion..Orange peaks of clouds, purple netherworld guidance and so on b:chuckle would be something neat added to the game

Man, more lag to game? Nope thanks... They are preparing an upgraded version of PWI, using some sort of adapted technology (said by a moderator in response of one thread of mine), so maybe when that upgrade comes out i'll agree with you, but for now it's very risky...

Does fashion that got dyed make you lag? I'm pretty sure that if I dye my dress blue beside orange it would not make you lag more, it's a color, so even if the weapon could be change of colors that wouldn't create more lag, he ask for an option to dye the weapon to change the color, he isn't asking for a glowing effect on the weapon.

You make me laugh ''Colors make me lag'' lol... what's next, .ini edit make you crash?

With the fashion weapons im not sure how much this feature would get used. For now im not going to Log this as im not sure this would be an added bonus to the game that people would really use. Ill note tho its an interesting idea that could be worked with.

Thanks,

I'd use it, and I'm sure others would too.

Not all classes get a nice fashion weapon in each set. Or they get boring after a while. I'd love to be able to change the color of my weapon.

Weapon fashion is nice, but it need to be bought back every month (3 months for the bite of Arch ones), some weapons looks nice, but just doesn't have a color that fit with people's fash and as stupid as it sound a lot of people like to have a weapon that match with their fash, in my case I'm a mystic and my weapon is blue, it's not ugly, but I personally did prefer the basic pink R9 look of the wand, heck they should almost have made a female version and a male version of all weapons for the color (or at least for R9) cause yea some male clerics doesn't like to have a pink/red weapon.

I like the idea but I also kinda just want more weapon fashion that lasts longer and is priced reasonably. 3 gold for 1 month, no thanks! Still it would be nice to be able to dye it to match my fashion.

Ok so if I where to log this do we want the whole weapon to be able to be died or just Dynamic Design of the weapon IE parts of it where the blade ETC would stay the same just like a neat paint job really. Was this the original idea? TBH i read it as turning the whole weapon say orange... Well...

oVenusArmanio a good Question for Sparkie may be. What new fashion weapons would you like to see? ( Just I don't know if this has been asked before? )

Thanks,

The way I was thinking of the way some other games to it (mods, can I post a link to an example or would that be violating ToS abotu discussing other games?), not the whole weapon would be one color, but parts of it would dye. If a weapon has a default glow (like r8 glaive), perhaps dye that, but not the soulgem glow.

Ok Ive logged that, A point well made sometimes I can be wrong but I will take all into account.

Just at this point im going to remind the community that I do not make decisions on what gets added to the game and what does not. I log all suggestions that are within the limitations and are reasonable. The Log files are shared with Everyone who needs to be able to view them. The feedback is of my own opinion and does not reflect that of PWE opinions.

Thanks,

Do you even lift bro? Color is a property provided by the engine while adapted to the GPU... If glowing effects are a bundle of properties that provide lag to the user, then a simple color property provide lag aswell, as do other "simple" stuff as height, mouth width and other stuff. If all character had the same face, same clothes and same general properties all those variables would be static, therefore it wouldn't be necessary to load them since they were imbued within the game staticaly. Got it or need a more simple explanation?

I thought that was globaly known, that a set of properties that can be altered by the user will make the load more inefficient, providing more lag. Well, some people are rude without thinking properly, so thanks for explaining Xx_BeLLa_xX some of the programming basics.

Not all of us are familiarized with some of these basics, so it's ok to be wrong about this stuff. What's not ok is treating your argument as invalid as possible, which clearly is not and makes sense. Wait for the next game upgrade, and maybe we will see better programmed interface and serialization.
