donation mask

[Saminella]

just a suggestion, maybe you can change the issusion for the mask for donating every month or so, just to mix things up. I am planning on donating for my monk, and awsome to see a scarecrow to attack other mobs, but maybe we can have some new looks just to mess with.

I believe that they don't change this due to:

It being "icing on the cake" and for making sure there aren't any unbalancing things involved (such as faction abuse).

Does it have to be an illusion spell duplicated from EQLive? Couldn't you have, say, Illusion: Land Shark?

 

[Saminella]

yea, that would be awsome, a land shark monk, lol. as far as the faction abuse, i can understand, maybe we can find some other illusions that are already in the game that dont give any bonus faction. maybe like a van shire (kitty) illusion. since their not in the game, would be fun for the donaters. also their not in the game, so it can maybe be set up that they dont give any bonus or negative faction.

There is a very limited amount of global models, and seeing as a lot are PC races, covered by other illusion items, Enchanter illusions et cetera, probably not D:

What's the definition of a global model? I've never really looked into how EQ spells function, but wouldn't it just be possible to change an existing, un-used illusion spell to change player to model X where X is any model in the game(ban faru, gnoll, gryphon, shark). If I were a floating shark, I wouldn't really care that much if I didn't have a kick animation or visible weapons.

Global models are models that are available in all zones. Non-global models used in a zone they don't exist in will result in spread-eagle naked human model.

Male or Female ?

err never mind ...

 

[fendermallot]

there's a belt out there that is Illusion: Gender... i saw it while checking out some high lvl's wanelo account.

It's not possible to make a model a global model?

I would think that is defined as part of the client (could be wrong) and if it were - that would mean that no - its not possible to do so...


and something not right about that sig...

It is, but it's a big fucking hassle like you wouldn't imagine (it involves individually editting a file for each zone).

With a good perl script, that could take all of a minute! The hassle would probably come more from making everyone redownload all the zones or trying to make sure every single player acquired and ran the aforementioned script.

I think I understand how that works now. Every time a person zones, the Everquest client loads models into the cache that it would need to render while in that zone. It loads the global models because there's always a possibility of that model showing up, and it loads the zone models for any creature that may exist specifically in that zone, even if there are none of that particular mob up. I always wondered why we didn't have more obscure illusion forms in EQLive, would probably be a pretty inefficient use of system memory.

Isn't that Stu Ungar? (I guess you are referring to the poker picture). Only wrong thing, he's dead.

It's Lou Diamond Phillips, actually, but I think he was referring to the disturbing sexual connotation of my sig(the thing underneath my post).

Lou is a little freaky there too - looks a little constipated or something (I guess that is a good card face).
