Neat! Very looking forward to the new armor design!
Thanks, Red! I won't give away too much, but the first design will be something like a long leather coat. Most of the armor Geralt has in TW2 is pretty short, so I want to make something that looks a little more stylish and menacing. Actually, I've begun modeling work on it already, so we'll see when I can post up some test screens.
Looks and sounds great! Being able to change armor pieces as you please would be like a dream come true for me. The armors in this game always looked great and every time I played I wished Geralt could put on more armor. I know it's really early to request, but can the feet be armored too? I like the look of those armored legs and some sabatons(foot armor) would complete the look.
Anyway, great work! I think this is a brilliant idea.
Thanks very much for your interest.
It's nice to hear from someone who knows the correct names of armor parts, as well. Yes, I do have some greaves with sabatons in the works right now. My aim with this mod is and will always be to allow complete customization based on how the player wants Geralt to look and perform. The devs at CDPR have done an excellent job at allowing us to make choices that help define his personality, but I think allowing a few extra appearance choices can take that process even further.
A huge part of RPGs for me has always been to have the ability to make my character look and feel the way I think best reflects his/her personality and skills. That's really what I want to do here -- to provide a bunch of options to make
your Geralt into who you want him to be. So, for instance, if you choose to spec into alchemy, you might as well look like an alchemist, etc.
There's much more content on the way. I can't promise any dates right now, but stay tuned!
