*edit*
Also, again: Thank you! This is bigger than you suspect, I'd wager. Fixing Celestial after we made such furore about it and got nowhere before is big, don't get me wrong. It's an awesome change. But fixing a long-standing problem by player request is arguably even bigger, because it gives me and others the feeling that we actually ARE being heard and that we actually CAN appeal to the development team. It reminds us that you guys care, and that's BIG.

It's the end. But the moment has been prepared for ...

And thus ends your peace of mind, Dink.

Is this...is this real life? Are you sure I'm not dreaming this?

Issue 16 made me feel like this.

Time
Increase Work Division
Universal Dev Enhancement

This enhancement can only be slotted once per Dev and provides a potential infinite amount of increased effect.

You cannot use this enhancement until of Clockwork 01 says so

If you could manage to see if there is :

A) a way to also keep the current look (maybe like how skulls, etc have "bone" and "metallic" tinting/textures)

B) Restore the classic "metallic" and such costumes alongside their updated reflective selves?

Orc&Pie No.53230 There is an orc, and somehow, he got a pie. And you are hungry.

It's in the same vien.

A) really wouldn't require that much extra time as far as I know (basically copy/paste of the current one, then only modify one copy)

and b) - well, they might still have the old set somewhere and not have to reverse engineer it.

Having non reflective versions of all the old pieces that got the super gloss effect, like Armor Plate, Metallic, etc., was something quite a few of us asked for back when Ultra Mode was on beta and hit live. Now'd be the best time to at least make it known we still would like that option, if time ever permits. Noble Savage just shot it down due to time constraints and "it didn't fit in his vision of the pieces."

Personally, I'd like to see Celestial fixed first since that's already on the table, and if that works fine, then we'll campaign for more. I have a sneaking suspicion this is being done at least semi on the down-low as a good gesture from our kind character artist and I'd rather we, as a community, didn't come off as always asking more but rather as appreciative. We can always ask for more later, but for now that ought to be enough. And I DO want the old pieces back, bind you.

As far as Celestial - I'd imagine the non-pretinted ones would come as alternate variants. I can't imagine replacing the pieces being a good idea. Even if I don't like them, I'm sure there are many who do like them pretinted and it makes no sense to steal from Jack to pay Jill, as it were. Add them in as options instead of replacements. It makes sense.

Whoa, I had actually given up on this thread recently, and here I find that they ARE fixing it? YAY!

Its a pity that we cant have the same reflective texture for all the metallic pieces. Along with a non reflective version.
All metallic pieces would work better together if we had a standar texture for metallic.
The problem is every costume piece has its own texture, so we have like 5 leather texture, 8 metallic textures, 14 clothes textures and that make it complicated for them to blend and work well.

Anyways, thank you so much Dink as always for beign awesome.
Best red name ever (Specially now DN is not with us anymore)
