Heya Rarebit, could you please have a look at this thread

http://mxoboards.station.sony.com/matrix/board/message?board.id=general&message.id=81575

Sorry bout the huge link! And tell me if it's breaking the EULA or not!

btw, whoever did that kind of music editing for the 4 seconds interlock mood changes is a master of music soundtracks for games. does it have anything to do with the 4 second interlock since technically the music can change moods in the middle of the battle?

I'm not an expert on the EULA. It just changes the picture on your own UI element, and isn't being used to gain an advantage. It also seems less iffy than passing around, say, a full pblip file, which I always thought was an exploit, but which nobody else I talked to back at Monolith seemed very much concerned about. But again, I don't really know. EULA questions should go through Customer Support or /ccrs.

Is there any way we could get or Groups back on our buddy lists? So that we could seperate factions/Organisations? Or even for the LET/LESIG to keep people organised on their list?

Oh and what' with the save .BMP screenshots? (Don't have to answer that one)

There's usually a way to do most anything in a program given enough time, but since SOE's chat system doesn't have the same kind of group support for buddy lists that the old AIM system had, as far as I know this isn't something we can do very easily.

**zeroone506**

Yea, everything seems to point to that SMILEY

Did you get your inspiration on veils rsi by niobe being the red queen and veil being the white queen from the chapter in Alice in Wonderland?

So what you're really saying is.. SMILEY

If the developers/engineer's had enough spare time, and community was out-spoken about implementing this and incredibly receptive(Read: Thankful) if/when it's implemented you could easly do it?

Still kinda qondering about those .BMP, they were just so darn good when editing screenhots and the like. SMILEY

Not consciously, but that's an interesting parallel. I was definitely going for a memorable color theme with her RSI.

Since I don't make models and textures myself, and just put characters together by picking and choosing and tinting existing art assets, a lot of the process is just playing around with the parts until I get a combination I like.

For Veil I knew a wanted a look that was glamorous, eye-catching, and exotic, while still being somewhat mysterious. The shiny white look stood out and made her look a bit ethereal; white also contrasted nicely with her skin tone, and seems to me to have a dreamlike quality--not to mention its being associated with death in many cultures. The black elements helped create a visual pattern, and emphasize the whites more (and lets not forget that vertical stripes are slimming).

Continuing the white theme to her glasses gave them a certain haunting, veiled opacity; they also remind me of the moon, and Veil seems to me very much a creature of the night, like a dream, or a nightmare.

[AvatRAMa, I'm not sure I understand what you're asking about .bmp screenshots. Shift+F12 should still save out .bmp screenshots.]
