Earlier today i was on TC-Bria checking out the new probot look....





This thing is so ugly and so much worse, I don't know why SOE likes to slap us in the face so much. I guess they like to remind us who's wearing the pants in this relationship.


So, to fix this, I have come up with a drawing on how to make the jolly Dz70 into the droid it should be:

Comments? Suggestions? Remember it's a work in progress

And don't forget to read Shug_nix's post that can be found on the Dev Tracker about it. Seems that someone forgot to include one or two of the texture files in the download, hence the dodgy looking skin. It wasn't meant to be that way.

Eric, you forgot to add the Pure Crafter Tissue Wipe Dispenser -- for cleaning hands before crafting, of course; useful for wiping blood off the blades for everyone else.


Also: Whining DE Loudspeaker Bullhorn, with mouthpiece in droid's rear (near Devs ears).

Holy moley, how can i be so thoughtless Sodan!?


If I work at the same rate the devs do, just give me 6 months time to change it. MS paint can be very difficult to work with you know

Hey dood, don't worry about it. Just put it out there. You can add the missing skins and animations later. Actually, why don't you start out with combat animations, then remove them.

This is what Ood_Bnar had to say about the probot:


As posted on the identical thread on the TC forum, this is a bug- we were adding some functionality to the probots and we accidentally broke two of the levels of detail. Since we are at the deadline for the publish I don't know exactly when the fix will get to test center.

Thanks for the strong concern about the probot- it will be back to normal as soon as possible.


In Drashk's thread that he locked here:


http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=droid_engineer&message.id=59583#M59583


So, even though they are locking the threads on the matter, it looks like they will probably let this thing go live.

This is great stuff..... if one of us is still around playing this game in January 2005, please remember to include this in next year's Droid Engineering Academy Awards.

All droids should have red go-faster stripes

I like to take a pick-axe to my droids. Speed holes are where it's at!
