Morninglord Robe Feedback

From in game


From the toolset

Well... perhaps a bit more like a Sunmaster robe

Priestly Vestments: Priests of Lathander dress in bright long-sleeved robes of yellow, red, and pink. These are often called "sun robes." Those priests with their own temples have their robes trimmed with ornately crafted gold ribbons.

This colour combination can't be achieved in the Toolset simply by tinting these robes. Some things don't tint, and some things you simply don't want to tint. And, you can't get these sunny suns! This one has the normal maps edited as well on the suns.

-At first I thought the normal maps for the suns were a bit too drastic so I lowered them but may have to increase them a slight bit.
-The neckpiece with the pattern: need to change tone to slightly more golden.
-Sleeves ends are very bright, might be cause of the normal maps or the lightning.
-Pink colour tone not the one I was going for, the tone in the Toolset is closer to it.
-The leather belt across the shoulder shares textures with the inside of the collar and can't be changed too much.

Should be tested in other lightning conditions but I didn't feel like making a module with outside lights, indoor lights and whatnot at the moment.

I didn't look too much in to the tint file. When I change something there, other areas show up black. Am I doing something wrong or do I have to add all the tint layers myself? I didn't make a complete tint map as this is the only colour that I wanted but I suppose I could make one if its a must.


What's the opinion? Could this go in to the game? Or are your eyes bleeding from the view...

I like it - definately "game worthy".

[LISA100595]

I Like it.. and Sion the Pink wizard would Love it too .. FABULOUS

[Elthan]

Eh no pink please.

The colors of lathanderite shiz is : red , golden , white with golden hue.

I would go for white if you can make a white one

Thanks for the comments!

I'm in the process of changing the things I wasn't too happy with. I also made a tint map which seems to be working!

Elthan I chose pink after that source, not sure where they got their sources from but if you know where the clergy of Lathander is written in the lorebooks, please share. Pink was the image I got in my head when thinking of a Lathanderite priest, I understand not everyone shares the same image... I can def make a white one, and other colour combinations as well now with the tint map.

Priestly Vestments: Priests of Lathander dress in bright long-sleeved robes of yellow, red, and pink. These are often called "sun robes." Those priests with their own temples have their robes trimmed with ornately crafted gold ribbons. A sunburst headpiece, worn toward the back of the head to emulate a rising sun or radiant sunpeacock, completes the ceremonial garb. The ritual robes used at many rural shrines are simple cassocks with a color scheme by rank. Novices and postulants wear brown; adepts and underpriests wear russet and crimson. Senior priests wear scarlet, and subpriors and those of higher rank wear rose-red. The leader of the temple or shrine wears white. Holy symbols of Lathander are often made of painted wood, cut from rose quartz or similar minerals, or enchanted to radiate a dim, pink glow.

Adventuring Garb: Adventuring clerics usually wear more utilitarian garb, but prefer reds and yellows, to the point of tinting their armor those shades. Most priests of Lathander favor chain mail, and often the only obvious mark of Lathander they bear is a rose-red circle on their shields and helm brows.

Welp i guess on the robes pink is alright though it isn't the dominant color.
Pink light enchants is lore friendly as well.

But the dominant color in TLDR:

Robes : brown , crimson and russet , white (rank)
Armor: Shiny steel with red ,yellow ,golden overtones on shield , helm and chest armor.

(confirmed from faithes and avatars)


TLDR of my post : More colors other than fabulous please.

[scriver]

If it's lore correct, definitely keep the pink.

Love how you worded it. I didn't look in Faiths & Avatars, somehow overlooked it, so thank you!







I created a tint map! This means that the robe can easily be recoloured. I think the white one looks quite epic - can't really mess up with white. Thing is when you view these in the Toolset and then view them in the game the colours are not the same. Getting an exact tone is frustrating. Still not happy with the pink tone... Unsure about the red & yellow. What do you think? This is a speciality robe so it wouldn't make sense to add a ton of colours but I tried to show what it can look like with the other colours.




For comparison; in the Toolset you can change the colour of two areas; green and blue - these are the tints. In the original... if you wanted to change the colour of the shoulder thingies to green, all the leather things would turn green as well. The rims, sleeve ends etc, are not changeable at all. I pretty much moved around all that and added colour for the dull parts. The suns could easily be removed and the re-mapped version replace the original one if anyone would want that.

Not sure why it shines so much on that comparison. I'll have to check IG if its only a Toolset thing. IG the robe actually shines less than in the first image in the first post.

Elthan, that's not trolling. That's an opinion. And really, if you actually thought I was one, I don't see what point posting a picture calling me one could possibly have. If I was a troll, it would just serve to gratify me, and if I'm not - which is the case (and I haven't "trolled" anyone in any single one if my 400 posts) - it just makes me feel offended and dissed. So really, tell me, what were you hoping to achieve?

And finally. There is nothing wrong with the colour pink. It's not "fabulous" or "gay" unless you (general "you", as in everbody as a whole) make it so. I don't know if that is the problem, but if it is, just remember that this is a game where every other character is running around and sticking oversized phallic symbols into others

The color is halfly mentioned in one sentence and then not at all when in particularly regarding the clothings it was not. i'd actually say it's not lore accurate..

But hey go for it bro - Pink hat , pink robes and pink shoes.

I really love the crimson one in the middle.

That is awesome work i must say - it definitely needs a spot on the server (all tints for all people fabulous or not)

[DM_Xzar]

Nicely done! The robe looks really nice, Nomster.

[gjallahorn]

Looks great

*ponders* is it possible to..make something with the robe-look from belt down...and breastplate look from belt up?..would be a pretty awesome cleric-suit.

[Azmodeth]

Impressive, Im game to see them IG..
