Why is there no 'Sleek' Option for skirts? Large Picture Attached


Blood Red Arachnid

Okay, I've been playing this game for nearly 5 years. And for those 5 years, I've always wondered why there was no 'Sleek' option for the skirts (mini, flared, or pencil) like there is for the tights option throughout the rest of the editor.



I remember thinking, at one point, maybe it was a bug that would 'eventually' get fixed. But, again, that thought is probably around 4 years old, and I never thought to address the question until now.

Has there ever been an official red named reason why there's no sleek option for skirts? And if not, can we get that option put in? Because, let's be honest, sleek tights with a non-sleek skirt looks pretty silly.

I wonder the same thing. So many options that needs a sleek option. :/

And how about adjusting the white tights so the skin color doesn't bleed through?

There's no sleek option for gloves or boots either.

Not for anything other than Smooth/Bare there isn't. No sleek option for Large and Banded (no Animal Fur option for them, either), for example.

Along with that...

The sleeves. On my phone, so no pic, but the one that slightly hangs down... can we get patterns, including sleek attached?

And the bridal top texture with matching skirt? Would like to use a different skirt, or gloves, with that, but the colors are more of a deep matte than anything else.

If you're talking about the ones I think you are, then no, we can't, because they've got bare hands. We can only have two colors (not counting pre-tinted parts, like the yellow band on the Praetorian Police Chest Detail): Either Color 1 and Color 2, or Color 1 and Skin. Until the system is changed to allow 3 colors per costume part (which I'm not going to hold my breath for, no matter how much I'd like to see it), it just isn't possible.

There are a few pieces (like certain jackets) that have three player-selected colors, but the third color is a blend of Color 1 and Color 2, not an actual third color.

I always have to go with the Leather skirt if I'm trying to match to Sleek costume pieces. It's close, but it would be ideal to have a Sleek Skirt category.

True, but there's also an option with a glove instead of bare skin, so on /that/ it should be possible.
