    I am absolutely LOVING the daily updates!!! and the new characters! Will we be able to customize our characters so they are bulkier, like the happy Avian?

    Now that would be cool, to chose your character's build. I'd love to make my Hylotl character taller. That would make every character a bit more unique.

    IT would also increase the work on armor frame animations by a ton. So doubt that's going to happen.

    Really liking how these characters are looking, very curious to know where they'll fit in n' stuff

    That avian looks like he's ready to help find the emperor's New Groove.
     
  11. You won't be able to customize your character to be bulkier, unfortunately! It'd take an enormous amount of time to implement that sort of customization. These are unique NPCs, so they don't need to be able to wear the same clothing/armor as player sprites. :)

    Books? I want books! Are we getting books? It'd be great if they came with a duration bonus with a multiplied effect based on how long they were read for, like every 3 seconds gives 10% of a boost up to 30 seconds being 100%. Lasts for 5 minutes to an hour based on effect...

    Anywho, they look great. Thanks Miss Molly

    No tears here. It's logical that was the case >_>

    Even if it means half of us Starbounders helped you do it by spriting?

    Its really amazing how much care goes into animation - where motions feel alive from the bounce in the hair to the shortening of the legs to the stretch of the dress.

    Your definition of logical isn't the same as mine, obviously. I didn't know not implementing body types/making armor sprites for those body types wasn't "logical".

    THat's because you never tried modding. Anyone who has done that at least once knows that stuff like equipment and armors are not just slap them on kind of items and that each one has its own set of animations for the character wearing them. The need for a standard then grows even more when said armor sets are meant to be worn by EVERY race in the game.
