Separate Au Ra horns from Face

[Graeham]

New graphic update in patch 70 does it give more face choice? Like Highland with eyebrow and Mildland with male face and Roedyne with Garlemalding Third Eye. Floating horn aura it is good idea.

Nowhere have they said they'd be adding more customization options. Should just be a literal graphical update and nothing else beyond that. They always make it seem like their servers start self destructing at the mere mention of adding more character customization options. So I'm definitely not expecting more, though especially in this day and age the character creator we have is pitiful.

It won't give us more face choices unless Yoshi-P has said so specifically.
Currently, I can't find anything of him mentioning an updated character creator & only a graphical upgrade that will be limited to PS5 users at 1st.
They won't be adding new customization options unless we ask for them. This is why people use mods because everyone has asked for updates to their characters for years & nothing has happened.

Yep, Yugiri's model was a Miqo first before the Auri were finished (which is why she wasn't unmasked until 2.5 or whatever). iirc the horns being baked into faces was limitations on going hogwild with character creation and strains on systems loading everyone's character, but that was likely a ps3 limitation if I'm remembering. Especially in crowded areas, I can imagine some older systems or a ps3 really chugging along trying to load stuff, but with updated systems and such, it shouldn't be as big of a problem now.. hopefully if/when they upgrade character creation this can be addressed. I don't expect kmmo in-depth character creation, but I'd like more colours to play with, more face options, stuff like that. Maybe even the ability to have face makeup AND tattoos instead of choosing one or the other.

This is on point
I also don't expect like black deserts model of character creator but they keep releasing & adding new things to NPCs & where are player characters updates?
I'm not going to "Hope" Yoshi-P gets a wild hair up his butt & just starts adding stuff we have asked for for years, unless he says so specifically- we have to keep threads like this updated & relevant

i would love if au ra would be able to change horns, was thinking about fantaing to an au ra but felt like they lacked customization.. im attached to my character but i dont like her default resting pose! wish she could stand like an au ra. T_T

I'd love if Au Ra could get to cover their full body (except face, maybe face too for people who want it?) with the scales.

We're talking chest, arms, and legs, basically up to neck. Maybe make it a toggle for each body part like Arm 1/2, Leg 1/2, Chest (current)/Full.

I support this. When I made my Mari alt I made an Au Ra since I didn't have one yet. I found something that worked but I really wanted the horns that go back. Would be very nice to be able to put those two pieces together the way you prefer. I imagine it probably is baked into the model, though.

Considering the limits of the system I'd say they could possibly add this in a way that allows for 4 options with 1 being the current default pattern. Other races could have a tattoo option implimented instead so they're not left out.

Personally Id like an option that gives more scale coverage to the limbs and back area, the current default scale pattern is at least to me very hit and miss, theres some mods out there that are quite impressive, would be nice if the devs yoinked them for themselves!

Just gonna come and revive this thread since I wanted to make one myself on this! I would LOVE if this was a consideration while they were working on the model updates, or even if it was just a consideration in the future.

I adore my Au Ra, I will keep her forever, but I wish we could customise the faces and horns separately. I love the fish-fin horns but by now I'm so attached to face 1 that I couldn't change her horns, since it would change her whole face. It would make Au Ra in general look a lot less unrealistic with more variety being available (Au Ra seem to feel same-face more than other races when they're together).

I love what we've seen of the new Au Ra in the graphic update - the scales and horns look SO much better - and being able to have that little more customisation would be the icing on the cake.

Yes please. Really nothing more to add.
