Seasonal changes to Costumes - IDEAS FOR RYZOM

#1 Added by Nubios 7 years ago [en]

I have only just started to look at the 'Ryzom Core' so i might be on the wrong track but it occurs to me that anyone with Paint.Net could change our costumes (armor) for Christmas, we would just have to reboot the server and deploy the seasonal armor.

Is it hard to deploy new .bnp files using the client updater?

Could we have modified .bnp files for (say) Xmas

Or does this already happen - I have not been here long enough to know.

Such armor should be OPTIONAL!

I, for one, while understanding the beauty of Atysmas and Anlor Winn do not want to see my armor and clothes transmogrified. I have a "look". I want to keep it.

((Coding optional armor changes would probably be undesirable in terms of the doubling of effort. ))

Is adding new crafting recipees for seasonal looking armor a big project?

That way we get to choose whether we look like a 6" tall Elf or not?

Addition of new crafting recipes would be a lot of trouble unless the results were just existing armor with new skins. I would presume that they would be forms of LA, but who sells them? How are they integrated with the existing plans, are they BQ, medQ or HQ?

Maybe just fun costumes, like that lurkin costume or what was it, with no real protections?

BQ, medQ or HQ?

I would probably make a new category "costume" but add them to basic light armor internally with almost no protections. I'm not sure, but I think recipes are hard coded and so much more is too. It is not a flexible system imho.

They could be done something like the Candy Canes that were 'released' the very first Atysmas; they were available to buy on the merchant and were just a very basic staff/mace with a skin on it. IIRC there were only a limited number and were very rare pre-merge; not sure if that would be desirable with these.

Similarly the pre-order Armlet is just a very basic q10 buckler but has a skin on it that makes it look shiny.

How hard are skins to implement?

You can't "complete" the mainland. If one thinks one has seen or done everything there, one is kidding oneself. But be prepared to "get out what you put in," because the mainland does not coddle or hold hands.

Other games - they give you a cookie whether you succeed or not, in fact you don't even have to participate. Ryzom takes your cookie, eats it in front of you, and slaps you 2 or 3 times for bringing a cookie in the first place.

umändern der existierenden Rüstungen nur durch das ändern der Texturen wäre durchaus möglich. jedoch soll das atys Weihnachtsfest nichts wirklich mit dem irdischen groß zutun haben, deswegen es auch Lichterfest oder auch atysmas heist ... ich persönlich mag nicht die irdischen dinge hier sehen, da atys eine eigene Welt mit eigenen Geschichten ist, die so vielseitig ist das man daraus etwas machen könnte.
natürlich kann man sich an die irdischen feste anlehnen. aber bitte ich will nicht als weih-nachts elf rumlaufen.

mir reichen die Weihnachtsbäume, die päckchen, die zuckerstange, die Yubos mit rentiere Geweih und Pudelmütze, das übrigens auch die Mounts dann bekommen ^^, der Lebkuchen mann, ... hab ich jetzt was vergessen? ach ja und diverse Möbelteile für das Apartment ^^ und die Laternen (Zuckerstangen-Laternen) und Ställe sehen ganz anders aus in matis zb ^^

sicher könnte man neues dazumachen ^^ extra zu weihnachten. dennoch sollte es aber ehr auf die kalte Jahreszeit und passend zu atys ausfallen ^^

man kann sehr vieles machen, das Problem dabei ist das einbinden. bis jetzt gab es jedes Jahr ein wenig neues auch zu weihnachten.

aber bitte lasst niemanden mit spitzen Ohren, Weihnachtsmütze und grünen oder weißen pelzbesetzten kleidern als elf rumlaufen -_-

am besten schickt ihr mir mal eure Idee via ingame Mail, und ich schau was ich machen kann ^^ wenn ich nichts anderes zu tun hab :)
sprich direkt jetzt zu Thema weihnachten ^^ (Nur Grafiken und 3d Objekte Ideen. Events quests ect ist nicht meine Welt ;)). aus diesen optischen Ideen kann ich etwas machen, und die dann irgendwann mal im Ryzom Forge Meeting zeigen, ob die etwas davon verwenden wollen, können oder so ^^

I think that the events that occur during national holiday seasons often bring in new players - friends of existing players that want to group up and be the first to get the latest pointy hat or gold coloured mount. I think that Attys has it's own unique lore and should have it's own unique events but they should happen at times of the year when MMORPG players have free time (holiday seasons).

Maybe one Attys holiday armor set could be based on collecting Kitin exo-skeleton components.

Maybe different tribes could have a season when they give new recipees in return for specific kitin parts or specific clues to the missing dragons?

meines Wissens sollen die marauder Rüstungen oder generell alles von denen auf kitin basieren. liegt daran wo sie herkommen ;).

im Grunde alle Waffen und Werkzeuge, die man aus op material bauen kann sind tribe items.

der effect in gelb oder blau lässt sie zu den kami und kara Equipment werden.

ich weis nicht in wie weit es möglich ist, die existierenden Pläne mit op material umzugestalten, um Pläne ohne op material und ohne effect daraus zu erhalten.
(Fact ist das noch viel Item material im Moment nicht Life benutzt wird, oder gar jemanls benutzt wurde obwohl es vorhanden ist (Daten))
