Suggestion: Character overhaul
Posted: Sun Sep 26, 2021 4:50 pm
I'd like to suggest a kind of a community open source project on the actual PC-NPC visual appearance
1. Player character
-Skin colour - dark/light/in between
-Vault suit always on with armor underneath at all times - since altering the head with different skin colours and hairstyles would be much easier to do on an actual vault jumpsuit model with armor overlaid over the jumpsuit
-Perhaps even a body size corelating with small frame/large frame perks having a visual presence on the character sprites:
small frame=images narrowed by a small % , scaled down a small %, no perks resulting in default sprite
Would be amazing to see body size narrowing/widening and rescaling for the NPC character as well depending on their description
as well as models they use (Reno bosses looking like bums in rags rather than scaled down and narrowed down tuxedo model? )
Is this sort of thing possible with the modern tools at our disposal today? I am aware the haircut mode is a thing and an amazing mod at that, restoration pack made armors visible on companions as overlay - why not do the same for Player's ancestral vault jumpsuit? We know lore wise it never comes off the tribal - eg. showing it in Vault City
