Oy, the heads be missing
Posted: 14 Aug 2005 06:11 AM
I did not download the override, but from what I know, the override only matters on character creation--the heads are in the haks and will show no matter what. However, I'm surrounded by headless people in-game. Is the override necessary, is the head hak packaged with the override, or did I get a bad hak?

Oh, and hi. Tongue out I'll be playing a bit, hopefully, though with my own PW server to run and another character to play elsewhere, I likely won't be around all too much.

Currently, the override heads aren't in any of the haks. It was my original plan to do that for 1.66 but I thought it would make the download too big.

I'll ask Ara about having them in the next hak update.

I had that problem to, GF. Had to find the head override. Was kinda funny roleplaying with Cor and he had no head.

That explains it. Thanks. Now, to not spam I'll throw in an entirely unrelated question. Do you guys LETO characters for appearance, or anything of the sort? I'd like the pure black for my PC's hair, but it's not selectable during creation... nothing even close to black was, actually, I ended up with red. I hate that.

No. We very, very rarely modify the appearance of PCs as there's only one person who can do that and he already gets overwhelmed with various other requests (as well as juggling being an active player/dm/builder/father/person who actually works for a living).

It's only ever happened in the past for RP purposes.

I too found the heads missing. My poor character, D'Rath, has become delusional and I very disterbed by the large number of headless people running around. He has found the drinking helps a lot, or is it drinking a lot helps. Either way the lack of heads has had cause irreparable psychological damage, perhaps the large quantity of alcohol has contributed as well.

For D'Rath it has provided an interesting character flaw. That said. I couldn't install the heads override because you only have .rar and not .zip. Yes I know I can buy RAR but would you mind making a .zip version of the heads override?

WinRAR is a non-expiring trial version. Exactly the same as Winzip.

And there's a problem with redheads?

My trial version of WinRAR makes you believe it will expire after something like thirty uses. Then it tells you you have to register it, which takes you to the purchasing page. If you just bypass the Must Register window, however, you can continue to use it as before.

You can also use 7zip, which handles rar and zip files just fine

No, but when you're supposed to have black and you end up with red, it sucks. Tongue out Being colorblind RULES!11
