Hello everyone
So I have been tossing an idea around for a bit. I am thinking of writing some code that checks when a player zones and checks the zone table for the expansion #. If the zone is pre-Luclin then the player models will be the old models and if it is a zone Luclin and after it will show the new player models.
Now I haven't started looking at the code yet as I was working on something else, but it doesn't seem like it would be impossible. If I am not mistaken the client loads the old models and new models when set to load new models. I am getting this impression from the variable in the client options to load Velious armor textures (IIRC).
Does this seem reasonable?
I'll actually start digging in the code this weekend. As I have a new baby I find I can scroll and use one hand on my laptop while he sleeps in my arms, but it is very hard to play :)
