Tailor Archive
Thread: Need some good advice.
1, Fiberplast, polymer, hide, metal. Those are the 4 main resources but there is a list as part of the FAQ.
2, Synthetic Cloth is the most used component. Reinforced Fiber Panels are needed if you do a lot of fieldwear items, Trim if you are doing formal wear and jewellery settings if you are making jewellery (also used a lot in formal wear too). Metal Fasteners are used for lots of different things but luckily come in crates of 50. Cargo Pockets are needed for some of the backpacks and bandoliers and Shoe Soles are needed for a lot of the footwear.
Basically decide what you want to make and check the schematics for which components you will need.
And a biological component is a BE tissue. Check out the BE guides in the FAQ if you wish to work with BE clothing.

*supresses a /sigh*
I guess most of us could explain it all to you, but why don't you check out the FAQ in the stickies? Everything you want to know is there, thanks to our very own godess of HAWT and those that pre- and succeeded her.
Saves you and us a lot of time, and it's the most efficient way of knowledge transfer. Otherwise, we would be typing it all up for every newbie out there, again and again. Which is why we have the excellent FAQ. And trust me, it is all in there, that which you want to know.
I really advise you to check it out, really do
And don't forget to check out some of the other Tailor-related site swhich are linked in the FAQ. One I can recommend off the top of my hat is www.swgtailor.com.
If you have questions after that, then come back to ask them ![]()
To answeryour questions quickly (and incompletely), stock up on Fiberplast, Inert Petrochemicals and several types of hide, especially Leather and some Wooly. As quality doesn't matter, go for the cheapest ones (if you're buying them).
As for components, it really depends on what you're going to make. If you're doing mostly clothing, it will probably be Metal Fasteners, Fiberplast Panels and Synthetic Cloth. Other components are mainly for Jewelry, Shoes and other specific products.
Once again, check the FAQ, examine your schematics. There's really only one person that can determine what you'll need and that is you ![]()
EDIT: And I was thinking "First!" I guess not...![]()
