[dev1124] Hiding Main Hand Arm & Tool Graphics

Question:

With the mentioned changes incoming, will animations be adjusted for any class that can cast spells / use abilities while in passive mode? Will we have an improper animation effect such as we currently do with running while active/passive?

Edit: I am aware active/passive weapon sheathing animation is being adjusted already.

I remember being impressed by the animations in this game but now it has a few dodgy animations that look awful and need sorting out.

They do as some guys here requested.

And then again... some guys here complaining

hooo... maybe if we ask something like "/display underwear on/off", devs add and this also? =) this so need for us, really. %)
/display underwear on– Display underwear at all times.
/display underwear off – Hide underwear while in passive (and active maybe too?) mode.

One of the many good minor addition, now to wait if people can actually complain from this patch notes.

who actually asked to hide weapons? I guess if you REALLY want to try and up your FPS a bit you will do this....but i dont know anyone who would hide it in the first place.

I do enjoy the cosmetic updates to certain features such as head gear and soon to be main hand. I agree with the above post by akira_tenshi that a few animations have become dodgy. I do like that the Dev's are turning out features. I do like that they modify and improve on them as well. If i remember correctly they are working on improving the effect of drawing your weapon while moving instead of sliding, but that takes alot of work so i understand with some of these animations the need for them to rework animations and that takes a while. I really hope they get the chocobo system down, Anima just dont cut it

I knew it!!!! someone would complain regardless... It is for the festival costumes, some people prefer to not have to carry a lance while wearing bikinis or santa's suit.

Chardrizard is correct on this. I like to take a lot of pics in this game. Something I was not motivated at all in XI. However, how the armoury system is set up, we can not remove weapons at all, a hide feature for the weapons is necessary seeing costumes, season event items and who know what else are going to be implemented, and having a weapon would not look good at all =p

There is nothing to complain about this.

Definitely not something we need, but I remember hearing of this a while ago (and it was a minority group). Nice to see that the dev team isn't stepping on the little guy.
