Chest Emblems on capes

I have been playing COH since Jan 2006 & one thing I have always wanted was to be able to put my Chest Emblem on the back of my toons capes. Just curious or am I the only one who would like to see this happen. Think how nice your cape would look if you could do this. Imagine Supes red cape with out his yellow Chest Emblem on the back. Again just curious why after 7 years it's not been added to the costumes options.

Awesome idea!


The City of Heroes Community is a special one and I will always look fondly on my times arguing, discussing and playing with you all. Thanks and thanks to the developers for a special experience.

/signed, I don't see how this would take much work either, just a matter of adding a detail slot to capes.

back of cape, back of character, back and front of head. and on the hands.
Along with the ability to select them on all the above listed. Would go well with magic based concepts.

SIGNED! and lets include all the available SG logos in that as well or is that included in what you mean. I have always wondered why I can add my SG logo to my characters chest and even to a shield but not on the capes.

Always supported. I would like to be able to scale and move them as well. Make it smaller and move it to one side of the chest or even a shoulder like a patch.

While I agree that it would be a great addition to the costume designer, I don't think it will be implemented that easily, unless you want your cape to become completely stiff (or the symbol constantly detaching from your cape).

All the emblems in the game currently are fixed in form. In order to follow the movement of your cape, the emblem would have to bend and wave along with it. This is certainly possible, of course, but it will probably require some effort.

While all of these options would be astonishingly awesome, I'd consider "just the cape" to be a great start.

Well, the majority of the chest emblems are basically just a 2D texture over the main chest piece so it should be perfectly feasible to port them over to the capes (Capes already get the option to have a static pattern on them). Obviously the various 3D chest emblems (such as Bandoliers or the Ascension chest piece) couldn't be ported over but I would think the 2D ones would work out.

The simplest way of doing it would be to just add a new pattern for each emblem, which would work fine as it'd just use the existing system. But it wouldn't allow you to use the emblems with any of the existing patterns and I'd bet people want to do that, so yeah.

Just because I want the option, doesn't mean I would use all of them at once ... just those that apply.

it would be cool to add a barcode to the back of a bald head. or to hand signifying the magics power.


OOH OOH OOH ... add a glow affect to them ... YAY

I'm happy that I'm not alone in this wish. Of course not all of the emblems will work but a few like all of the star patterns, spiderwebs, snakes, eagle/hawk, skulls etc etc etc. Ty for your support.
