Convert normal hats into cosmetics with sketchbook

Post by Sevenless »

First thought of it when the farmer kids running around in straw hats early world, but figured it had been suggested a million times before. After a search doesn't seem so, at least not anytime recently.

Could we get the ability to make a purely cosmetic copy of a hat with a sketchbook? So we can run around in whatever ingame larper hat if we want to

pretty sure this would devalue their hats.

maybe is it just did a recolor only and not modifying the model of the original hat

It seems you aren't getting the idea. It's not about turning, f.e. straw hat into a pirate hat. It's about turning a straw hat into a straw hat (but cosmetic which you could wear over a dhelm to pretend you are just a farming alt). Or which hat value we are talking about?

If it devalues their hats (as you have more cosmetic options) just make it cost a lot of sketchbooks.

I just want to wear a sprucecap with my merch robe to fuck with people's head.

Could be another specific item for hats for that matter, or gear in general (assuming we get that kind of stuff in the future... we need more artists/modellers!)

For ease of trade-ability I think it's best to try and re-use items where it's sorta reasonable. Like recolouring buildings with sketchbooks, or that idea about verifying with sub tokens.

But sure, if it takes a new item to do it works for me too.

I can see why people want it, but presumably it's a lot of work to implement and not exactly a game critical feature. But the devs know we want it so there's not much to do about it.

idk i still think its worth the effort rn its always everyone in the same clothing and same colors everyone looks the same. hats are the only real customization rn.
