Character editor (CJ Kucera) and robes?

Post by Tauschitz »

**Small SPOILER**

BasiliskWrangler or anyone who might know the answer to this,

BasiliskWrangler wrote last year, "As I said, Book II doesn't have robes so most Magic Users will want some type of armor."

I noticed last night, after having found the Guild of Crivus Vindica, that inside the underground area is the character of Erubor and that he is wearing robes. Now, I know that you earlier held that robes were out as they were too difficult to animate, but his robes look great to me. In fact, they look so good that I would like to use the model for my wizard.

I see that CJ Kucera has released a character editor, and it has several settings that might (I am not really able to tell) permit one to change the graphic model for an item that one is wearing. I think that the setting is called "Picture ID" but I am not sure if this just refers to the picture in the inventory or whether it referrers to the in-game figure.

SO my questions here are two-fold:

1). Is there any way to edit one's character (using CJ Kucera's editor) to make one wear the robes that are currently being worn by Erubor?

2). BasiliskWrangler: if not, is there any way that a future patch or the expansion can make the set of robes worn by Erubor available to the PC character? As I said, I think that Erubor's robe model looks great and I would love to be able to actually use it - I also like his Wizard's Hat better than the one available to the PC! :wink:

Thanks and the game is fantastic!

Hey - the editor's not able to do anything like that... Erubor (or anyone else wearing a robe) is a completely separate model, whereas your player character starts out with a base model, and then has its equipment layered on top. There's no separate "robe" layer available to be added.

The "Picture ID" from the character editor basically just changes the picture that shows up in your inventory.

OK, understood. That is rather disappointing.

BasiliskWrangler, I don't suppose robes might make it i for Eschalon III?
