Sharing Custom Alien Design with friends

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
I don't think I am suffering from Alzheimer's (yet), but I seem to remember reading way back before the game released that we would be able to share our custom alien character race designs with friends. Anyone else heard of this?

    I thought I read this too a while back. This would be a nice implimentation, along with a way to change the name 'alien' under species to something that the user names him or herself.

    They mentioned it yes.

    They never came through though.

    Much like politicians.

    But thats alright... they took the shield rings off. All is right in the world now.

    It's saved in some picture file thingy on your PC.
    Mail that to your friend, and have them load it.
    Instant clone.
    Edit: by mail I mean outside the game. Send it to them. Email works.

    There should be Save and Load buttons in the costume editor interface. Save produces an image file in the screenshots folder you can send to someone (make sure they don't change the filename though). Load shows any images in the screenshots folder that can be read in. \o/

    Weren't there privacy concerns with the Champions Online costumes saved screenshots? I thought I remembered back last year that we were told that wasn't a very good way of sharing costumes because of the data embedded into the screenshots. Has this been remedied? :)

    That'd be awesome if someone only read the first part of your comment and snail mailed a printed copy to a friend. Instant clone!

    I would like this feature as well, instead of just a generic 'Alien' it would be nice to name the species you created.
