Thread: Can we have some way of changing vendor looks now? Please?

So I spent three hours today trying to create a human vendor that doesn't look insane. It wasn't as funny as it sounds.


The ID revamp introduced a myriad of new makeup and hair colors, and the randomized looks of vendors include those now, making it impossible to create a normal looking vendor.

Basically, I just want a brown haired, blue eyed vendor. Is that too much to ask? I don't want to hire people with green eyebrows, blue lipstick, or pink hair.

*sigh* Can we please have some way of controlling the looks of the vendors? Let IDs change them? Introduce a few extra parameters when selecting vendor type? Anything? Please? Please?

Yesterday, I ate the woman's precious begonia, and today I have dismembered the amaryllis in the bedroom window. She is furious over the loss of her darling house plants! I find it highly gratifying.

If you change that "or" to "AND" you've just described my day.

They need to REMOVE new Image Designer colors for sure.


Com'on DEVs is it:


* Too hard to make eyebrows same color with beards and hair?

* Too hard to make a decision box more - Thin - Medium - ObeseAND Young - Mid age - Old?

* Too hard to make vendor palette to newbie palette(Star Warsish styles) where human looks like a human, not zombies?

Check my post "Another chunk of ugly..."(currently 3 pages long) and state your concern.


Sooner or later someone HAS to see it, right?

Nah, they don't need to remove the new colors and stuff.


They just need to give a way to customize the look. Like using the recent ID interface or something.


The current method is carpal-tunnel inducing to keep re-rolling and re-rolling until you get an acceptable compromise.


Once you select Human Female or whatever, it should pop up a character design window.


Once go at it is all that should be needed, when the vendor is created.


And an option to alter the looks of existing vendors.


Cheers,

I can tolerate the neon colors, sometimes they look kind of cool... but I am so sick of wrinkled face vendors... its like all the createvendor option spits out are people that look like they were too far gone to be considered mummies....

I hate all the neon, and is it just me or do 90% of the female vendors have HUGE hips
