Trust me, of ALL the issues we have as image designers, this is not one of them. I also happen to disagree, but that's just me. Rodians and Bothans can be REALLY tiny; Wookiees and Trandos can be VERY tall. I think the height thing is just fine.

Thank God we're getting haircuts and hats straightened out!


The next time that I notice how bad combat, etcis (that'll be later tonight), I'll at least be glad that there's some good haircuts on the way in this game... really makes me proud of this dev team!


What a shame!

Whoopty-doo! Your profession is borked too, just like every other one in the game! At least you have a steady, secure source of income in the form of missions. An Image Designer has a very forlorn place in the player economy, I made more on a Nuna mission two nights ago than I've made on ID since.


You've fallen into the common fallacy that combat professions are more important than non-combat professions. The fact is that all professions in this game are equally important (save Jedi, but we'll not go there) and should be treated with even concern. In that matter most of the combat professions are FAR less borked than the Image Designer profession. You know they just 'fixed' a valuable work around we had for a commonly asked for skill? It was like an accidental nerf. Quite honestly, I think that the ID enhancements are a good sign, as it shows that the Dev's are equally concerned over the viability of both combat and non-combat professions.


Not that a Troll would come back and read this anyway.


P.S. ) Thunderheart: I'm sure we all appreciate the effort you've put towards the attention ID's are now getting. We know that the boys with the big guns can be intimidating some times.Thank the rest of the Dev team for us, and tell them that $30,000 is on it's way....







Who will you perform ID on when all of the "combat types" are gone? Not that I don't see your point... I do... but your profession is based on everyone elses... don't you see the point in fixing the ones you're dependent upon first?

Kaptain, if all you care about in a game is combat, what the heck are you doing here? Some of us have an appreciation for aesthetics, and a need to feel as if there is depth and complexity in our environment.

I guess we know who not to look to for depth or complexity...

Even as a TKM/Master Doc I see the need for ID to get the attention it deserves, along with Chef, DE, and Tailor. These are some of the professions that give the game a sense of community and richness that wouldn't exist if people like you got their way. Keep playing the game, by all means Kaptain, in whatever fashion floats your boat, but keep your assenine opinions to yourself (or at least well away from the ID boards). The grown-ups are trying to talk here.

wow lots of trolls on this post



image designer content is as important as combat content


you guys get stuff all the time we get one mini publish and your up in arms?


be grown ups play the game let others get what they need too



if you want a game tailored around yourself go for a non mmo


once you get into mmos good devs will give attention to all classes/races/profs/subgroups


it is as bad if all the entertainers quit because we havent gotten good stuff as it is if all combat people quit for the same reason


they still lose cash per month and players

Allright, I am speaking as a non ID here Kaptain. There are 11 or so out of 32 professions in this game devoted to combat. And I would say that that group (a minority I might add) gets teh bulk of the Dev time. For you to begrudge the IDs some Dev love is childish and has no place here. I for one would LOVE to have the IDs get more options like hair styles, tattoes, piercings. I'm not a 1337 PvP type so combat does not dominate my playtime. I instead like to rp a bit and a good look is important to that. Ignore all theflamers you ID folks, most of us combat types luuuuuv yall *starts humming 'Hairdresser on Fire" by the Smiths

the particle effect generation for windblowing hair would have to be customised to Certain detail levels. For one....it should not appear on Low detail models wich are used for models in the further reaches of the camera. It would enhance the quality of the image from close up...but still reduces the lag issues created in places like coronet since not everyones hair is show in full detail, depending on the range to the camera.

None of those are in the works for the mini publish coming up. New hairstyles are one of our top wish list items though and hopefully we'll get some additions to existing art one day

I know I shouldn't respond to trolling, but anyways... I'm primarily an artisan and I use image designers quite a bit and I'm fairly certain entertainers do too. Combat proffesions are only a part of the whole, and not the cornerstone of the economy. In fact I don't really think there is a cornerstone group. (I'm sureviews on this vary widely, but anyway) I can say that I use entertainers, doctors, and image designers and I'm not combat oriented. In fact I have decent weapon sales to non combat classes or those just starting to climb combat skill trees. What I'm getting at is thatmany of us non-combat classes will be using image designers services and I'm excited about the image designer enhancements, especially the new hair styles and colors, and this will add a lot to my in game enjoyment. To me its the little things like customization that enhance peoples involvement in their avatar and the game, which in turn helps people to keep playing. Anyways, good luck image designers, I look forward to doing buisness with yall!

The man took all my proffesions away. I ain't jack no more.
