    No offense intended, since it's what I assume booster pack should mean too. But
    the announcement is also carefully worded, and looks to me like it may be more of a
    temporarily-available unlock and a booster in name only.

    I'm cool with it either way. I'd just like some clarity.
    You should just send a tell to Aveata if you need that much proof. Out of curiosity why do you think this loyalty program will only offer limited time rewards when the last one applies to every new character you make?

    already have, and new ones made after the anniversery, will have to earn them as normal?
    You'll never ever have to grind out merits for Vanguard costume pieces again. It just like every other booster.
  3. Poor Mod5, he has so many posts to delete in this thread.

    If he is a he. I suspect Mod5 is just Aveata's covertsupercodename.
  4. the costume is okay, it's just the suede cowboy boots don't go with the rest of the outfit.

    I think a pair of open toe sandals could really help to kick that outfit from meh to WOW!

    I owned the Marvel version of that crossover, the one on the right. I don't know if it was the same story in both books. I read it once and never read it again. The story has great potential but the writers blew it.

    The cover has a hole cut out in the middle, Archie's face is actually on the first page of the comic. I'm not a big fan of doing that with comic books.

    Seems that the creation for Pisces my hubby came up with would have water typed powers as well, perhaps more blaster type. I took a peek at the arc and love everyone's designs so much ! I must say I enjoy having a chance to be a part of this !
    I got tons of ideas for water based powersets. Capricorn, Pisces, Aquarius and Cancer are all water signs. (I think)

    Also I'm so happy that you're so happy.
  7. I hadn't even considered that the wings would be something else besides wings. Not having to expand the wings makes working with those wings so much easier.

    More of a blaster, I'm gonna borrow my Nephew's Last Airbender and check out how Katara did water blast. I'm sure there is some awesome animation in Kin Melee for a water blaster to use.
  8. The Dungeons and Dragons cartoon from the 80s had a spaceship in atleast one episode.

  9. Here's my first mockup for Aquarius and my interpretation of Water Control's AOE hold.

    I'm gonna have to go find a photoshop tutorial that deals with water since I'm hoping to work a couple more water control/blast powers into this project.
  10. I'm so excited, I come back from a little road trip and there are all these new contributions.

    I have wiped together an AE arc, well I wouldn't even call it an arc, in order to get Demo info for all these great ideas

    #480908

    I need a costume file from Opedius for Aires, I haven't used Shadow States idea for Cancer, nor PowerStreams idea for Pices. ChristopherRobin has dibs on Sagittarius.

    So if my math is right we have two spots still open
    Cancer
    Pices

    If no one new wants to tackle these two I am more then happy to use SS and PS's ideas.

    Somehow I screwed up the copy and paste on Shadowstates Coustumes. I'll have to fix that.

    They works way better then using he and his all the time. If I'm having a email conversation with someone about a third party and that someone is throwing he and his all over the place, I make then assumption the 3rd party is a man. If they were being used instead, it would be easier to tell the person I'm communicating with doesn't know the gender of the third party.

    They works great for phone calls, "Excuse me, I'm looking for the owner, can you tell me if they are in" works way better then "Excuse me, I'm looking for the owner can you tell me if he is in?". If the buisness owner is a woman and you are looking to sell something or apply for a job, getting the gender wrong starts the whole process off on the wrong foot.
  13. That unleashed chart is hilarious but I don't understand why you have 24 signs. If that catches on with the general public you all will have to write twice as many horoscopes each day.

    There aren't many manufacturers left in the US that cast pewter, but I wonder if any of them are considering doing a run of this new sign. If you own a bead store and you carry pewter or sterling silver charms you'd be an idiot not to stock both the Chinese and western zodiac.

    I could see an online store making their money back from buying a run of the new sign, a brick and mortar store on the other hand has more important things to spend their money on.

    Personally I hope this story just fads away. Astrology fans are worse then Scifi fans, they rank up there with hardcore football and MMA fans for being able to carry on idiotic conversations.
  14. Cool, look how many people are participating. I'm going go back and edit the second post in the thread to show who is talking on which character.

    I wanna thank each of you for playing.

  18. Code:
    This is a repost of information in the (re)design help thread.

    I was thinking it might be fun for a lot of people to work on one project. As long as there is enough room for everyone to participate. I want to ask you guys to help build a supergroup that doesn't exist in the game. Outside of this subforum of this board nobody will ever even know it exists.

    For this supergroup I'm using the theme Zodiac. Now I'm pretty sure we don't have Zodiac chest symbols in the game. Hopefully this will be a theme that most of you haven't already built costumes around before.



    This is a cheat sheet for a family of fonts, the font in the brown row is obviously zodiac, at work they say the green row is zodiac also but it looks like some weird witchcraft stuff. Everytime I see P-Green printed out I think its some text book diagram of a uterus.

    What I plan to do...if I can get some people particapate is take the coustume file you come up with and then run them through demorecord. Get some action shots and use photoshop in order to show the costumes in a more dynamic fashion.

    I'm hoping to see a wide range of themes, if anyone of you read old Marvel the Zodiac was a group that had a theme but there looks were all totally different. None of them shared the same origin. They just couldn't hack it as solo villains so they came together and changed their names into Zodiac signs.

    I would like to say the costume file is the all you need to participate but if you bring more, like a bio or descriptive text it'd be nice. I don't want to have to make any of the characters and a little information about who they are might help in further steps down the line.

    Since demorecord is being used we can do some powerset combinations that don't exist in the game. Pistol/Katana, Shields/Claws, Rikti Assualt Rifle. There are some easy powersets that can be mocked up in photoshop as well, Whips, Chains, Bo Staff.

    Huge models are pretty hard for me to work with in Demorecord so we need to avoid them, maxing out the male model is perfectly fine, and I'll be turning off any auras.

    It shouldn't be too hard to use the zodiac fonts as a chest piece. If you make the design decision to do so just put the correct letter in the chest spot.

    I'll be using NPC models from the game in this project, those NPCS will be somewhere in the level range of Independence Port. Not the mobs only found in IP but this project isn't going to involve the more powerful factions in the game.

    We'll have to go through a round of posting screenshots before we get to the file passing part. There are some costume parts that is colored a certain way cause problems.

    I should also let you know a few of them will die. Hopefully noble deaths in the name of a great cause. Just letting you know some of them won't be making it back alive.

    I hope I wake up tomorrow and a lot of people are interested in playing.
  19. Are these pronouns used in RL at all? I had never seen them used.

    I agree the English language needs some genderless pronouns.

  21. I have been informed that unforeseen problems arose with that map so it had to be removed.
