With Water Blast out, I'll ask one last time...

... unless this is ignored, in which case I will likely ask again.

With the release of the Water Blast power, I am sure there will be a number of characters appearing with swimsuits, or at least water-themed outfits. Something that would fit well with these costumes and which I (and others have asked for multiple times) is proper-looking bare feet. No more boots with toes, please. I have asked for better feet enough times that I feel like some sort of fetishist, but I have at least two characters (and with WB, a third on the way) that thematically should be barefoot.

I know that the work to fix them could potentially be more than what the devs consider worthwhile, but I know that I am not alone in wanting this. I have seen numerous other posts asking for the same thing.

C'mon devs... my barefoot characters are not mutants. Please don't give them mutant feet.

You can have feet with individual toes after the rest of us get hands with individual fingers.

I agree, the feet in coh are fugly.

Yeah, I agree. Just a texture to suggest toes would be fine, similar to our hand mittens having painted on fingers.

And as they said, I'm sure we'll get those right after some fingers for our mitten-hands.

this is actually not what I thoght this thread would be about lol I thought it would be a complaint about how all the newbies would be coloring thier water yellow and calling thier toons vulgar names that have something to do with urination...

ok onto your thread's topic, I agree, the CoH characters are definitely candidates for N64 appliccation with thier single facial pose 'painted' faces and ther claw hands and feet with lines painted onto them to separate the fingers and toes.

I also agree that the foot structure needs something to be desired as it does look like a boot (which they did so that the rigging of the toes will match the boot exactly)

ok, solution, add a few subdivisions to the feet and hands to make them more foot and handlike, then apply a normal map for toes and fingers.

thats what I suggest to the devs to fix this problem, though me personally, if I were on the character dev team I'd just give them separte fingers and toes and a posable face from the start (on ultra mode) usually characters with these qualities are around 4k polygons but I've seen nintendo do it with 1200 polies (which should work for basic non-ultra settings), and yes I know how they did it and how to do it on any character.

The zombie feet and the pocket D pack female boots/heels with bare feet are the best models we have right now.

Surely that can be used as some sort of template.

Yes please for real bare feet. Yes please for fingers on hands.

Didn't know COX had some many undercover toe freaks.

Well we already have individual fingers and feet that look like toes that they could use for future development and possibly changes to existing parts.

Have you ever looked at an Arachnos Soldier's hands? Even when his hands are closed into fists you can see see the knuckles as individual fingers. As for the feet, Pocket D Strapped Heels for female characters. They really did that well and I think when it first came out people complained about the toes looking too big or something and it was eventually fixed to look better.

Oh and as far as "we have hands with lines for fingers", well, have you ever looked at the Valkyrie gloves closely? No lines at all. A lot of gloves look like "mittens" and could use an overhaul if you ask me. So I'm all for making Boots>Flat look a lot better and more realistic. They've already proven it's possible with the examples I've given.
