Is there a trick to getting a vendor that doesnt look.. Well ugly. I have hiring 4 and ive been trying for the last 2 hours to get a decent looking vendor but they all come out old,fat and ugly.


Any suggestions?

Ugh welcome to my world. When you get a decent one, then it turns out that the facial hair doesn't match the head hair and... gah! Just keep plodding away destroying.

you know, I was doing the exact same thing a couple days ago. You know what it made me decide?

I'm going to drop merchant entirely, and pick up smuggling soon.

I'll just have one "bulky" vendor up. Instead of these random morbidly obese vendors I keep getting.

What's even worse is the fact that you cannot macro vendor creation. You *have* to actually click on each and every window that it takes to create the 40+ vendors before you even get a halfway acceptable one.

I just got Master Merchant, I want to setup my final vendors with all their clothes and stuff. I want to have one for weapons, armor, spices, foods etc etc the list goes on. But I for example the melee weapons vendor to be a big muscular bloke carrying a battle axe. I was told there was a way at macter merchant to mae you vendor look exactly how you wanted them to, almost like ID'ing them. Is that true or not? I see lots of people with vendors that are identical, so I'm sure it must be. Can anyone help please


Thank you

No we cannot ID them.


the Ones you see identical or looking great come from the time the Merchant spent creating examining deleteing creating examining deleteing creating examining deleteing creating examining deleteing creating examining deleteing creating examining deleteing ....you get the picture


ID has been a want wish list for content item for both Merchant and Image Designers for a long time, and until then {then ~ to never} we stay with creating examining deleteing creating examining deleteing creating examining deleteing creating examining deleteing

I'm about to redo 15 vendors, again. I really dread the vendor creation process. It's not that I want them all to look like super models. I just don't understand how anone could code a system where the top of the Hiring skillset produces vendors of all races that look 180 degrees wierd from their common blueprint.


I got a Twi-lek that seriously looked like someone had injected cement in her face. I got a wookie that looked like someone starved him for the past year. I got a human male that looked like he ate the wookie, but had a itty bitty skinny head. /sigh


Just keep praying for ID on vendors.
