i expect this would be incredibly hard to do, if even possible... but still it would be really cool!!! :toot:
hmmm probally adding the models for the armors and emotes would be hard.... i want to see gnoll dance though :dance:
 
The models would never show the armor because the game model has no options to do that. So there's be only 5 different looks for players to choose from (if I recall from running a server a while back there's only about 5 or 6 different "skins" for gnolls).

Would be neat, but I don't think this is the server for it...plus it would need to be done after character creation, because the client can't be modded to allow for gnolls to be selected at startup.

And no emotes either....
 
Pretty sure admins have already said this cannot be done, and that they are unwilling to do a hack job to add more races.
 
Even if it were possible, gnolls are some of the last creatures I'd like to see as a playable race.
 
I want to start a Gnoll character, and name it "Quiche Lorraine." (Obscure 80s music reference inc!)

That being said, I voted no.
 
I always thought orcs would eb a a nice addition to the game (in general , not specially SoD) , since trolls and ogres are in already...and there could ahve been many starting cities (Fearstone ftw !)
But that's just not doable, let's handle it.
 
This isn't possible for a lot of reasons, namely, there's about 3 textures for gnolls, and they all look awful.

Even if it were possible, we wouldn't do it.

OK, now Half-Orcs, that I'd vote for.

A more pertinent point is that if you aren't one of the player races (as a base race, not an illusion) you can't wear any equipment whatsoever.

Awful look? i think they look like EQ does and if we are playing SoD is because we love EQ as a game and as a grafic style.

I am sure that one of the main reasons you will not do it is the texture issue.

Honestly, I just hate anthropomorphic animal races. Iksar are cool though.

I never understood where this comes from. I think frogloks are gay because of how they act, not how they look; if you switched the lore for, say, the trolls and the frogloks, I wouldn't like the trolls but I'd be ok with the frogloks. I don't get how people can look at like iksar and be fine with lizard people but look at gnolls and go "augh no hyena people killed my father!".

I'm not trying to pick on Liam specifically or anything, I just think it's weird that it comes up so often. My money's on the fur--nobody seems to have a problem with orcs, and they're pig people.
 
I don't like any of the anthropomorphized races. Iksar have just as terrible of animations as the races after them. Check out the iksar 2hb swing. It's like a retard trying to hit a pinata. They sit awkwardly (and every race after them sits equally awkwardly) and that bugs the shit out of me. It is a sit command, not kneel. Go ask someone to sit down, and they will sit down with their legs crossed and their ass on the floor, they won't get on their haunches. It bugs me. Also, you really can't meditate in that position, but eh...
 
Animations in EQ sorta went to hell right after it started. Anything that wasnt in the game originally has horrible animations
