Setup a collection for programmers to work on Viera Hair and Helmets

[Nikito]

Hello Square Enix,

Can you please setup a collection for donations so you can allocate a team to work on Viera Hair Modern Aesthetics and Helmet compatibility?

I'm sure the donations would reach $300,000 USD pretty easy and will probably go a lot higher from just the US a lone, That's not even counting the other countries.

I'm no longer a Project Manager but I would assume $300,000 - $500,000 would be more then enough to put a team together to do this in a reasonable time. Realistically globally you'll probably end up with $2 mil USD from donations.

this is laughable at best. They're not going to accept money like this.

[Shadygrove]

I wonder if you could set up a go fund me for this.

It might embarrass them enough to actually do it.

[SirBrighton]

Money isn't the issue, it's available time and manpower.

[Floortank]

Money isn't the issue, it's available time and manpower.

Yes.

Notably, they can't just hire more people either, because more oversight = more time that comes out of the patch cycle overhead.

[ItMe]

So you want to fund raise for them so they can outsource this?

modders are doing this stuff in a day.

Let them already catch up for the next extension and its pre-patch.

Giant rabbits can wait, quite frankly.

I mean, that's what indie developers do. /chuckle

modders are replacing the already existing hair slots viera have with different hair models, iirc? they can’t add entire new hair slots to them.

the issue here is that, unlike when Au ra were implemented in HW, both Hrothgar and Viera were implented in what really feels like a half-finished state. and have pretty much remained that way since then. hell, to change your hair as a Hroth i hear you need to use a fantasia. compared to the other races they feel very limited and lacking, and have been that way since 5.0.
