This has now become beyond ridiculous!

The person who made that mod was on Reddit and said that all they really did was go through each piece of headgear and manually tick the box to force them to show, took them about 3 hours all in all.

There wasn't any complicated creation process to make new hat models or making them fit, just undoing the same checks client-side that SE has put in to make them invisible.

So that's what's preventing us from having hats and helmets on Viera? A damn tickbox? SE makes it sound like they would have to create a 2 year process to make hats show on Viera.
All they have to do is create a "hair-hat" model for Viera hair, which might take what? 2 weeks at the most? maybe a month? They need to stop holding Viera back just because they wanted to add a beast-like race so bad (Hrothgar) and just let Viera be. The people who wanted beast-like races knew from the get-go that creating beast-like races would have problems because of their beastial proportions; Viera on the other hand is like all other FF races, a human with an animal appendage. Hrothgar on the other hand is literally the head of a lion; try putting hats/helmets on this thing? This is what's delaying everything


Fix Hrothgar on a different timeline from Viera.

This isn't even a Hrothgar issue since people already have some of that done on them as well.

I could have gone my entire life without seeing this. You are hurting me. Hrothgar look so cute in hats and hoods! Where once was mild annoyance at not having hats is now unbridled frustration. They need them, and I need them to have them.

Yeah I have to admit they look damn cute.

There's an interview of SE talking about how hard beast-races are to model gear for, but I'll just leave this thread here which alludes to that interview and SE's view on a beast race like Hrothgar https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/...ture-expansion
