Have you ever wanted to use the Skyshadow's vampire face on its own? Or wanted to use the demon face without the hell's point hairdo?

So how about adding a face slot for these types of cosmetics?

Face customisations were mentioned as a Player modle rework as part of the survey options for 2017! ^_^

Would this be easier?

Some time ago I suggested a face slot, it went as follows:

Have you ever wanted to use the Skyshadow's vampire face on its own? Or wanted to use the demon face without the hell's point hairdo?

Technical difficulties must be the reason that it has not been added, As I thought I heard they would give it another try, It even garnered some support over time. So I have an alterative method to approach the same problem. A simpler method than a cut/paste for just a face, Not asking for a whole body design, or for racial characteristics/chanages, this is just a work around for the face problem, for the time being. Here goes...

Would it be easier to swap out the whole body, (or full reskin) rather that just a face?


Thinking on it, something like that might work for disguises, quest related and such, where needed instead of outfits.


Comments, ideas and feedback welcome!

After I posted this I saw some rage bout having to wear the hood to get the face for Skyshadow. So people out there must have a comment or 2 on this idea lol?

Perhaps make it a whole skin slot instead, for different skin models, like we have the green skin one ;) . Warlord bodypaint, scar marks, mahjarrat-pattern bodypaint [would be excellent for roleplayers], skeletal bodypaint, etc. Roawr.

I would have to agree with Dark Dragon, this could easily be added to skins, and perhaps a few extra ones as well. Also I think I read somewhere that they were looking into adding more skins or something along those lines.

With face cosmetics I think they are currently part of the helmet and sit over the avatar's face hiding it, that is a guess by the way. Trying to separate the front of a helmet to use it for the face and the rest for a helmet would be a cumbersome way to go forward, when it's the base avatar's face that should be the target.

Or a transparent mask that sits just over the face but under helmets then everything is added to that?

Obviously I don't know enough about the ways they have thought of so far or how they would go about it, but I am good at thinking up workarounds if I know what the problem is in layman's term, I've done it a few times already :P
