do you apply a hue changer to some items (shields and armour), or are they individually textured?
Hey dude,
we actually use a hue changer for many assets ingame. On top of that we also change saturation and brightness on a lot of assets: Vegetation, skin color, hair color, armor and weapons used by wiedergangers (so they look older) etc.
In general the changes have to be subtle though, otherwise it looks very artificial and “colored”.At the beginning of the project we used the hue changer for hoods and hats, but it just looked bad to be honest.
Heres an example of what happens when you try to really change the color on an item by just pulling some sliders or putting a layer on top. These examples could be more refined, but basically this is what you get.
Another issue can be the inventory spam if you have each item in 10+ color variations. There would probably be a solution to this, but this would take time again.Cheers!
will it be lootable ?
The hats/helmets without faction colors will be obtainable from some blacksmiths.
The according versions with faction colors will only be lootable in battle :) KIll some noble troops if you want them!
May be such thing like cloaks can br added to sergant slot?
Would theoretically be possible. We started concepting a feature like that (vanity item slot), but it wasnt possible to properly execute it with the little time we have.
We’ll see if we get back to that…these greatsword-weilders must be either too brave or insane.
There will be two variants:
Any new items you can share with us?
No, I am completely occupied with the event pictures at the moment.
Have some more!
The next few days I will spend on making some more noble head gear and tunics, we will see if they’ll also be obtainable for your mercs one way or another.
Cheers!
