Would be very cool if CCP opened up the Apparel to player made options.
Potentially there is a huge market to be tapped there.
A significant part of players really care about how they look in EVE, even if its just a paperdoll nobody else ever bothers to look at.
I probably wouldnt buy apparel (Im happy with my Minnie leather), but I did take time to make my avatar look like me IRL.
But its got RMT written all over it.
Maybe someone smarter than I can figure out a business model that benefits CCP, designers and players, but cuts out any possibility of RMT or other shady transfer of assets.
Here’s a stupid-er question, can some clothing items only be worn by certain factions such as the Men’s Empyrean Dragons Jacket or the Men’s Outlaw Bundle ‘Blood Raiders’, or can any clothing be worn by anybody?
Cap was with stubble texture for head, I combined the short hair model with the cap. Deleted some upper pieces and used the textures already in client. I only remodeled and repositioned cap and hair, and modified cap texture by overlaing different logos I had to recreate from fonts and vectors.
Programs used:
TriExporter with newest granny2.dll to unpack the directory with models and textures from EVE files
Granny Viever to see what there is actually in the files.
Grnreader98 with newest granny2.dll to extract models from .gr2 to .smd with submeshes.
Milkshape trial to convert .smd to .obj
Blender for remodeling and texturing.
GIMP for some texture coloring.
Inkshape to recreate logos from EVE.
Some time.
I now wonder what other crazy hats could we do if CCP would allow us to put those in the game. Like in Second Life.
Good looks are important for female awoxing characters. They have a much higher success rate for getting what they want without the victim realizing that he is being used.
the femal combat suits that are available in the ingame store are unfortunaly neither pretty nor hot. would be cool if CCP ad the drifters suits to the market. Please CCP, do it.
