Starfall Leyline.2481 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 **First of All** - I really, really want to buy the skyscale chair. But! It doesn't match the dye (or presumably the skin, when skins are released) of my skyscale mount. Please, if at **all** possible, make the "chair" follow the player's dye/skin choice! I don't know if the "chair" in this case is a preset model, or if it's something mutable like a command where a model is just selected and animated, and a behavior applied to the player character. If it's the latter, though, please tie the model in to the player's choices! Thanks so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samnang.1879 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 i feel like in order for anet to make a chair like that they'd need to raise the price to 2000 gems or even higher... would yall be willing to pay that amount? the current cost is way too low to have that many functionality. just being real.

I disagree: the chair and the mount (presumably) both use the same skeleton rigging. Theoretically all they would need to do is tell the game to load the player's mount model rather than the default Skyscale model. That's a matter of coding in a variable. We're not adding "dye" functionality to novelties or anything like that, just using pre-existing assets. If you don't own an exotic skin, it won't use an exotic skin. It would basically just inherit whatever dye/skin the player uses for the mount. There's no need for it to cost more at all. If someone who doesn't have a skyscale purchases the chair, the game will be assuming the default model for them anyway, so it'd still work. If, however, by nature the "chair" novelties use ..."pre-baked" models with their own specific rigging/skeleton, then we won't see that option at all no matter what the cost and I'll have a sad :c I'm just hoping my request is something the devs can accommodate.

RavenRecoil.6103 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 How cool woukd it be to have all mounts as "chairs" and it loads your selected dyes and skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Changer the Elder.2948 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I'd start with the chair being actually usable on all races instead of being three sizes too small on charr (again). Loading skins/colors would be nice after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danikat.8537 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 This is why I didn't buy it. It's the first chair which has actually tempted me, but realising it would be _my_ skyscale, just a random generic one put me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regh.8649 Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 I strongly support this idea. The only chair I bought on the spot and I would welcome this change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
