Thread: Art Team: What Tailors Want (v 2)
Just my input, I'd like very much to see at least one item of wookie clothing in the full or even dress robe color pallate. I understand it might not be Star Wars appropriate for wookies to walk around in bright colors, but perhaps a hat or pair of gloves in anything besidesmuted shades of green and brown. The metal colors on the Weighted Hoods and Waist Wrap are good, but I'd like to ask for just a wee bit more color selection for my loyal wookie customers. Also an additional wookie item using RFP would be greatly appreciated as the bandolier can't be worn with a pack thus limiting its practicality.
thanks,
Excellent thread Kwee. There's a lot of excellent ideas the Devs should take notice of. I especially want a rehash to the colour selection options. Even if nothing else gets implemented for us tailors, either adding a favourites or numbering system for colours is essential.
A few other things I'm surprised haven't been touched here:
- Clothing decay, when items decay to zero they stay wearable. This is a pain for us as it limits the market. People can stay in the same clothes they love until they find some super Bio outfit.
- The progression of clothes in the skill tree that reward XP. Getting bored of ribbed shirts? Each stage up each crafting tree should provide a little more XP.
- An option to displaya favourites or most used list of clothing in the schematics list when crafting. This'll allow us to mass craft a little more smoothly.
Keep up the great ideas all.
Btw Devs, please post a response soon. Even just to say you're listening. It gets frustrating toparticipate inthese kind of debates without knowing if we're being listened to.
More gadgets/cybernetic details on clothes.
Metallic colours.
Animal patterns, maybe in exotic combinations (like green tiger stripes).
Distressed clothing (with tears and such).
Tiarras.
Belts that work on female waists.
Short skirts like tutus or minis.
Maillot style bodysuits/leotards.
Brighter wookiee pallate.
Kilts or waistcloths for the men.
Sashes or scarves in bright colours.
I absolutely agree with the list of items that are wished or desired. I have had a lot of folks asking me when will we be able to get Cowboy hats or Fedoras?
Not to mention all the gun fighters out there that would like to wear their weapon holstered. It would make for a much better effect with the kipup shot quick draw action shot.
As for colors, I have been trying to get a deeper blue or brighter green out of the smock. No luck there. I just made a dress uniform suit for an ingame wedding. Do you think I can get a bright white out of the Long Formal Jacket, NO. Come on DEVs, help us out here, we Tailors are just too limited in what we can do.
Don't make a liar out me. I've told my friends who want to play the game that you are only limited by your own imagination.
Thanks,

so my comp connection has crashed and so i've been scratching the itch that is star wars galaxies by hanging out in the forums on my bfs comp. this is by far the coolest thread i've seen- i read the whole thing tonight and saw so many great ideas!! kwee you are a bad @$$ for putting this together.
i totally agree about there being more color options for all of the clothing not just certain items. and items being labeled properly in the bazaar (ie: skirts under skirts not mis.) and i agree hat if npcs can wear it why can't i make it??? and why is it that when i'm trying to make something and i close up belts and a bunch of that other crap i never make it won't stay closed- everytime i work on my crafting tool i have to close it all everytime- big with the crappy! so those are problems w/ tailoring that are already out there that i'd like to see taken care of before introducing new items- which for the love of God i hope they come soon- i've only been tailoring for a little while but i'm already super bored with half the items we're stuck with. (ie: hoollahoop belts and unflattering dresses)
so for my wish list i'd ask for more feminine dresses and more formal attire for men- as well as more wookiee garb- but i'll leave that be as i don't want to beat a dead horse. and i want more headwear for all- one of my chars is a female zab- you name me one hat she can wear with out looking like a total jack @s$
also- theres a space on the bazaar for earings- for the love of God let me make some- even if they can't be seen- like my wedding ring- i still want to be able tomake them and know in my own head that i'm wearing them!
and theres the problem w/ the necklaces not being able to be seen- thats just annoying more than anything else-- i discribe them in detail as the item name when i make them- but good lord that makes for a long item name.
all right thats all i can think of at the moment- excellent thread! very much enjoyed reading it!
Kwee, I'd first like to thank you for posting such a time-consuming thread. It really shows you are willing to work at making suggestions that will help...
However, there are some suggestions that I feel should not be available. Most are 'real-world' items, like cowboy hats. Never, never, never in SWG, please... ![]()
One suggestion of mine would be to add saddles to the Tailor skill set. I know many riders who would like to have a nicer saddle, maybe on that would look formal?Along with the saddles, saddlebags and pack harnesses should be added. I'd love to get a mount that would be able to carry 20 or so items ina pack. I could be an actual wandering merchant! Like a Jawa with more fur!!! This could also be done with the vehicle to give them 'trunks'...
Anyway, those are just me two cents worth. Besides I am approaching the time that I will be giving up Tailor to focus on other professions... Need... more... skill...points... *gasp*
I think mannequins would be cool,...floating outfits is kind of weird,..Tailors should be able to have non-vendor npc's that they can dress up for show. ( I could spend hours just doing that.)
I also think wookies need if not more clothes then jewelry of some kind; something kind of primitive looking maybe?
-THAT WOULD ROCK!
