This used to be a thing in 1.0 but then down the line gear got more elaborate and I guess it would look silly over everything also man every belt tasasts or sash looks exactly the same.

If this was possible, I could finally do my Terra glamour.

regardless the system IS still in place even if they just simplified it. -

Pretty sure it's PS3 memory limitations on this one. 1.0 had visable belts, and 2.0 removed this feature.

I'd like it if they could be seen but I don't see it happening. -

Would be nice to have this feature back, but I really couldn't see them going back and separating all of the bodies and belts, and then making new models for belts that don't have models. It would be a monumental task.

Crystal Tools, the engine that powered 1.0, was never going to run on the PS3 to begin with. It barely ran on the average PC of the day. That said, the belt slot was a substantial headache for gear design. There were alot of unique belt models forcing designers to make a body piece for every belt, for every body piece. Some leg pieces also had variations depending on the belt, like the White Mage Culottes (on female characters, I hated that soo much). That's alot of game assets for just one gear slot.

07-31-2015, 04:23 AMSylentmanaIf that's the case, then they should just remove the belt slot and distribute the belt stats to the body and legs. As it is now, it just seems pointless.Quote:

My biggest transmog issue in wow: finding belts that don't look like ass.
Thank you, SE, for making it so I don't have to. -

07-31-2015, 07:14 AMGilraenWhile I don't doubt that, I played 1.0 and there was no way a PS3 could have handled that. My gaming laptop, an Asus g53sx could just run it at medium settings. I dare not imagine how they could have even begun that port.Quote:

Personally don't care about not being able to see belts, one less armor type to fill my retainer with for glamour, they're full enough already.

07-31-2015, 08:06 AMWhiteroomWell. No one said you have to keep them if you don't want to see them.Quote:

I'm all for this! Some of the belt icon art is pretty neat.
-
08-01-2015, 01:12 AMDoctorPepperDoesn't really matter what other people say, if they were glamour able I'd be inclined to keep some of them. Right now I don't keep any of them, that's the difference.Quote:

The thing about accessories is that if other gear covers the area it'd appear in then it just doesn't show. But then you generally don't wear accessories over clothing. A prime example is the Prototype Gordian archer arms. The only cover one hand so the ring on the other hand shows. Belts, though, are worn over clothing so to give them the same treatment as accessories will pretty much have them hidden for a good majority of body pieces given that they haven't made body pieces with belts in mind for... a long time now. So, really, we'd be back to square one on near everything save the 1.0-based armors.
