Let us use Odin's armor for glamour

[Bayohne]

Greetings,

We understand that players have a strong desire to see gear that occupies multiple slots added to the Glamours system (like Odin's Herklaedi armor and Chocobo Suit).

The dev. team is looking into ways to make it possible, but it's currently very difficult to implement because of how the system is designed. With that said, we'll continue to investigate the matter and will follow up should we receive more information.

At least with the Odin's armor you could maybe break it into pieces. Yeah, it would take up more room but I think people would be willing to make this sacrifice just to glamour it.

In truth it isn't that simple. Although the art asset is complete, they would actually have to design and program the 4 new pieces. They went into more detail a long time ago when people were complaining about the look of the tin can tank armor (Darklight especially). They have stated that they feel their time is better spent designing new gear than going back to fix old gear.

On the plus side, at least they have learned from the past and the new gear (such as the heavy Wolfram gear) is not done as multiple slot gear.

You guys can do it! I believe in you!! Please just keep trying. Thank you so much for looking into this, we really appreciate you guys.

While you're at it, would you guys mind hiring a team of people for QA on gear visuals?

This game has more clipping gear pieces than I've ever seen, in any game, ever before it seems.

It'd be nice if you guys created a better standard for gear-rigging.

For example, a person pointed out how their nose clips through the Evenstar Coat's frilly collar.

I understand this is often inevitable and hard to prevent at times, but I think it's pretty epidemic in a lot of gear.

Just task ONE person with going through different gear combinations & devising a standard, then proposing ways to 'tilt' certain rigs to fix the clipping epidemic.

It has been way too long since I've played it, but Lord of the Rings online has a "costume" system which functions identically to the standard equipment menu. You put the item you want to display on your character model in the Costume Equipment section, and it overwrites anything you're currently wearing without affecting stats in any way. You can actually have two costume sets you can switch to *at any time* with the press of a button. I don't even think there was a class restriction on it. You could wear whatever you wanted.

I rather much doubt it, given that I understand how the Glamour system works, but if it's possible, the Glamour system should have a redesign going on in the background while we are able to use this one. It's, for lack of a better term, inelegant.

I'm also rather inclined to agree with Gesser here, as there were a couple dev posts *adamantly* refusing to make certain gear display (belts/sashes) because of clipping issues they would cause, and that the devs wanted to avoid that at all costs. Well now they're all over the place. No one expects perfection, it's impossible in huge scale games. But with all the little attention to details this game has, it's jarring to see this.

ummm... so why would they bother just recently offering dye options for Darklight gear? Darklight was ugly and barely used anyway, now it's just gc seal fodder. Seems like a huge waste of time, yet they did it anyway.

Elezen long hair clips through literally every single piece of gear in this game... Okay, slight exaggeration, but seriously, it's pretty ridiculous.

I'm no expert, but wouldn't you just program the glamour system to take note of additional slots and overwrite them where applicable?

Once this gets put in 9/10 tanks will be wearing it :P
