Title: Cloack?
Post by: Napalmi on February 12, 2007, 04:25:01 am
Eh...this is kinda little issue, but how bout adding some more gosteks? like a cloack? or...backpack? just to make ur soldat look more "stylish" think it wouldn need more coding...and the cloack thiny could use similar "graphic laws" as the flag.

some more add-ons..
Cloack
Backbag
Shades

I remember someone saying about something badly coded or something esle...

But yeah I support this idea.

Not going to happen because messing with the gostek coding in any way is extremely costly. The sort of thing has been suggested more than once before.

If you want custom gosteks, you can just modify them yourself or use any of the several mods out there already. Also, I doubt there will be an ability to choose a skin, so just stick to mods.

This probably wouldn't work (although if done it would look weird, which is still good, right?  ;D), but you could try to modify the dreadlock image so it's thicker and a bit lower down, and it would still wave. Although then you'd have like 6 minicloaks that would be attached to your head by some invisible force...Nah, that definitely wouldn't work...

I think there should be 4 or 5 selectable gosteks in the player customization window. That'd be awesome; as you could have different gostek types for bots, and it would really open up doors for modding.

Making your own shades shouldn't be all that hard if you'd bother giving it a try, edit the Mr.T hairstyle or something like that...

A rucksack might be a bit harder to make, but the cape has already been made, as you can see in this post. (http://forums.soldat.pl/old/topic.php?topic_id=33511) I never tried it out myself, and getting hold of it again might be a problem though, with which I am not able to help with right now at least.
Good luck with that.

I think the beta-testing team is pestering Michal to add more gostek features. :P For now, to simulate a cloak (only one c) you might be able to modify the dogtags or gold graphic, both of which swing around in the air freely as the soldat runs...

Been suggested before, was dumped into the "Cool but unneeded when there are so many bugs that need fixing and more balances to be crapped out" bin. F12.
