Clothing and dying

[o0AzureWolf0o]

there should be an option for a secondary dye for all outfits to go along side main dye to make us all more even more individual. Example ilvl90 Whm top is white with red flame looking accents at the bottom so to be able to dye the white one color well dying the red another

SWTOR did this well. you could also get "primary" or "secondary" colors alone that would only change their respective parts.



since i love playing dress up the amount of choices were mind boggling lol

EDIT: and another amazing thing they did was if you dyed just your chest piece you could "match" the rest of your armor to that dye config. (that way you dont need to buy a piece of color for each piece of armor cuz some got CRAZY expensive like black on black)

They already said they won't do this because it would increase the amount of data storage needed for each item model (all the second dye color weights). I wish they WOULD include it, but have the display of the secondary color turned off by default for the people whose computers/consoles can't handle the size of the models. Then, they can only support it for a small number of newer/more prominent outfits so they don't have to waste too much time redesigning old content.

That would make me so happy.

You can blame Ps3 for why this isn't possible.

seriously... serves cant handle this, serves cant handle that... wtf you are sitting on possible the next greatest mmo and your KILLING your expansion. I would correct this soon SE or else your gonna be your own worse enemy.

Seriously, its nothing to do with servers, holding the value for something to be a seperate colour isn't even a byte in size, its all to do with the PS3 and its memory limits and SE just didn't want to state the obvious.

[Nyalia]

I'm quite sure it isn't holding the color of the secondary dye that's the problem. It's holding all the color weights of the secondary dye color on the models themselves. It would essentially double the size of the color data in an object, making that object take significantly more memory to display. I'm sure it isn't just the PS3 that would have trouble with this higher memory requirement for the game's models.

Still wish they would do it... I've stated ideas on how it can be done anyway, but they're not likely going to spend the time redesigning all of their models when they can be creating new ones instead.

Calm down guys, with 3.0 we could have it, and blaming PS3 SMH, you should be ashamed of your self. We need to be more ambition. for 4.0 and 5.0, if this is the wall of FFXIV, then hope is forsaken. For crafter, any I100+ can be added to the game to replace these styles with custom dye option.

It won't happen because of the servers. They can't handle more information.

Unless you actually understand the limitations of the architecture, don't be SYH at anything.

the PS3 is the reason for alot of the games resource compression and eradication.
