ok nice idea's but the profession is totally wrong if you want to Interior Design the profession for this is ARCHITECT, currently on the architect forum a poll has been running for many many months after a red name asked what the profession thought of increased colour options.


Similar proposals have been run through the architect profession since beta I personally feel you need to have a look at one of the architect forums largest threads with regards to furniture/interior customizations


You want to craft and Interior Design then add 4x-x-x Architect to your template I have done so on Bloodfin as Archi 4-x-x-x Master ID Master Tailor for over a year now and it has been a rewarding play experiance





Well, as I said in my post, I dont seewhy architects do INTERIOR DESIGN. Call me funny, but I know2 architects in RL, and my step father builds furniture. Builds, doesnt paint them and make them pretty. But hey thats just me, maybe the architects in your area do the painting, carpeting, and interior design as well I was just saying we design IMAGES, why do people think their image is reflected only by body modifications? My house is very much part of my image. Anyhow it was just an idea. As for me getting architect? I dont WANT to build furniture or houses. I just want to go in and be able to make the things I already own prettier colors.I dont want to build new furniture in different colors, i want like the vehiclecustomization kits, but for floors, walls, and furni. See what I'm saying? I mean obviously, the devs will give it to architects,butI had to at least try.

I like that Arch has a frilly side as well as a functional side, other than Tailor, it's pretty much the only crafting prof like that and I'd like to see them get more frills one day (colors, textures, so on).


Anyway, there was once a plan to do something sort of like this for Ents that wouldn't take anything away from Archs - party decorator. We would "spawn" decorations (everything from buffet tables to balloon arches) and people would have to give us a kind of consent to decorate their structure with these things.


They'd work like PEPs though, so they'd poof after a certain amount of time and wouldn't hone in on the Arch's static decoration territory.



I loved this plan, I hope it gets dusted off one day.

I never saw this thread about party decor but just from what you have mentioned in your reply that sounds like a wonderful ideato commplimentthe new specials and features added to the Entertainer professions in the last patch

we already have the party planners in major hotels would be logical that an ID could have options to purchase a wider range of items suitable for indoors or out

I suggest any loot or reward idea that requires a 4 tag or Master ID to apply. It could be anything that makes a unique mark on the Char. A tatoo of the Imperial or rebel logo?


The hologens are great,. If they could be made for say a Holo pet and then added to a data droid, so you could give an appearance that you are surrounded by pets, I am sure you would see people call for that.

I don't know what's coming of new abilities, but it's long overdue. CU came, no more stat migrations...Fine. Made perfect sense to me that it had to happen. Now it's time to give ID's something to do again. I'm not expecting anything as integral as stat migration again, but there have been more than enough post CU publishes to devote some time to this prof.


First and foremost, more variety in styles (tats, hair, lekku pattern). Tatoos for humans! I can't tell you how man people asked for this when I was in the tent. IDing for pets (creatures, not robots or faction pets).


Just a few right off the top.

Hi everyone im not a ID but I am some one who just spent 1 hour looking for one...my server naritus has lost almost all of its id's because they have nothing to do anymore I just read all of the ideas here and they are freakin great for a long time I always wounderd why we cant get genetic engineering or somthing like this for the ID's and hey a nice last name change would be good for some people have any of you seen any one on your server with the same first and last name? it looks dumb but some people didn't get it when the char. maker said sir name so they put the name they wanted twice...The jedi diguise thing sounds awesome to maybe instead of being able to change some ones race if you could give them a disguise kit that changed thier race for a time period like the way bike custom kits work ...dunno just backin you guys up cause until somthing gets done with your proffession Im going to be short forever or at least until my servers ID's come back

So For Example IF A Bio Engineer Is so power full with creatures i reckon it should be given the ablility to change a Toons DNA Sturctutre only once per toon on the acc.


SO For example a RODIAN wants to a Human... i think the BE should give the ability to do this and it can only happen once per toon in the acc. after that the Toons DNA is too weak to change again.


This Wouldnt effect your Toon in anyway but just change the Toon look. and it wont give that toon the special abilities that Race gets..


For example Rodain has good weapon crafting bonus wouldnt all of a suddeon get Human Abilities it would only be the way it looked the shell of the toon..

1) Last name changes (for people getting unity)


2) Definitely gender changes (as a male player of a female toon, it get's old after awhile, and it would have been nice to have just had a gender-change, instead of having to delete my poor toon, to reroll and regrind a male one )


3) There's an Earring option on the Bazaar. I've only seen one loot earringfromGungans, and it couldn't be equipped. It would be nice if piercings were done by Image Designers, and crafted by us as well. Ears, eyebrows, nose, lip, bellybutton, etc..


4) ID'ing Vendors and city trainers would be excellent


5) Species changes would be fantastic, although I agree that they should be available only once. There were a lot post publish-9 Jedi who got stuck with their main's species, and it would be nice to fix that for them.


6) Body tattoos would be fabulous. Preferably with a decay rate similar to vehicles, so we'd have repeat business.


7) Lower cooldown timers for holo emotes. Those things are addictive, andI hate waiting 30 seconds to be able to use mine again


8) ID tents for player cities


9) Broader range of change for male lips. Give the male "Torso" option a purpose as well


10) More of everything (I won't go into details, since this has been restated a bazillion times )


That's my little wish list there. Share and enjoy

I have no idea if this idea has already been postulated. Unfortunately, I don't have time to go through 139 posts!


I've had a few people ask if I can do species/sex changes, and as we all know, the answer is no. I think that just giving that as an option is too simplistic. There are certain things that I think should stay and be difficult to change, and this is one of them. However, I think that ID should have the option of changing them, and I have an idea of how this can be implemented across multiple professions. The thing is, all other professions have what seems like a gradiant of products or abilities, but for us, ID is just one thing--changing all your looks. There's no 'easier' or 'harder' or 'gathering the best resources' or 'spending more experimentation points.' You do one thing and you're done, whether it's changing muscle or skin. But I digress; hopefully you can see where I'm going.


What I propose is that ID's have a third screen (besides the normal ID stuff and the holoemotes screens) to change a person to the gender/species of their choice.


This screen would require the input of a resource crafted by a Bio-engineer. It could be put in by either the ID or the person being ID'ed, but it has to be present for the change to work.


This biological component that I'm suggesting would have to be crafted by a BE. I'm thinking that the tree it would be granted in is the same one that the creature-making tree is. I've never been a BE and so I'm not familiar with their profession, but from what I understand, you get little animals at lower levels and big, cool animals at higher levels. So, what could happen is that the less popular species like Mon Calamari and Ithorians would be available in the first box, and the really popular species like Zabs, Twi's, and humans would be available in higher trees or at Master.


Each crafted component would be granted a male and a female, so you would have to decide ahead of time what you wanted to be. Then you'd buy, say, a male Twi'lek component, pop it into the ID box, and off you go.


Now, since I think this should be difficult to come by, the BE would have to do some DNA sampling. Again, don't know exaclty how it works, but I'm assuming when you DNA sample one animal, you can make one animal. So, the BE would go along, looking for a male Twi'lek, and then DNA sample from him.


To again make this not an easy process, the sampling could cause wounds. I propose 50% wounds (so if you already have wounds, it won't completely kill you). Also, the person would have to agree to be sampled upon. Maybe a box could pop up saying, "So and so is trying to sample your DNA. Do you wish to allow this? You will receive X wounds." As an added feature, perhaps the BE could offer some amount of money.


So the whole process for the BE would be, sample DNA, craft the item, sell to the customer/ID. Customer or ID buys it, ID changes the species/gender of the customer.


Finally, if we want to limit the amount of species/gender changes even more (because I don't know if the previous scenario would cut it), make a component of the change-item be a looted object. I would say about mid-level drops, around the 35-45 range, because it should be difficult but not impossible, and accessible but not worth 1 c on the vendor.


What does anyone think?
