Better Armor

While Wynncraft has amazing weapon models and designs. But compared to the weapons, the armor looks bland. I feel like cooler armor types and models would draw more players, aswell as make older players happier with another thing to focus on at a high level. They already have things like crate hats (Which are well made and a nice addition). But more armor, aswell as cooler armor would be nice. Another thing I'd like to see is vanity armor. I love the look of my chain armor, but gold armor is a lot better.

I'm not sure what you're suggesting for say?
Are you suggesting they make better models for the 5 basic armors, Leather, Gold, Chain, Iron, and Diamond?
That's doable, but it would affect all armors, all diamond will look the same, all gold will look the same.

If you're suggesting we give all armor unique models, that isn't currently doable, they can only do it with hats because we have the ability to force blocks on people's heads.
This used to be a thing via armor skins, but it was removed due to Mojang proclaiming it was a form of hacking.

Lastly, what do you mean by vanity armors? Do you mean they give the option to make chain look like gold, or iron look like gold?

 

There was armor skins some years back, however they were pretty buggy and didn't work very well. But if you really want armor skins there is a resource pack for armor skins anyway.

Don't think this suggestion is that needed -1

Vanity also ruins the point of gear looking that way and their uniqueness. For example, morph armor, which is unique as endgame armor that is of a variety of armor (not just diamond) So I will also disagree on this suggestion too. -1

 

Is it possible to retexture the different colors of leather armor to make the extra armor skins work? Or does it not work that way? Since I'm pretty sure that you can get wildly different textures for each type of wool, though I also know that leather armor can have many many many more colors so it probably won't have it's own skin database. Still it might be worth a try

 

Can't see how anyone could say no to having a higher variety of armour skins, even if it would be impossible.

"Vanity also ruins the point of gear looking that way and their uniqueness. For example, morph armor, which is unique as endgame armor that is of a variety of armor (not just diamond) So I will also disagree on this suggestion too. -1" - What are you on about XD

 

Exactly what I said. To clarify: the color or way the gear looks (iron, gold, diamond, leather, or any of the weapon textures) point to uniqueness of items. I mention morph because compared to most endgame armor, morph isn't just full diamond. Vanity and the ability to change armor would ruin this aspect of the game. I get that you want to add something to the convo but please don't just say "what????" and ask specifically what parts were wrong/confusing my idea apparently was.

 

Yeah, I understand what you mean. But never tell me what to do, especially if you can't even spit out a coherent sentence, that is what adds nothing to this disscusion, I honestly can't find any faults to having more types of armour cosmetics. And I'm not sure how you can possibly have any faults with it either, unless you say it can't be done, which I may understand.

This would be impossible to do because Mojang is blind towards community feedback and it would be a miracle if they added customiseable armour and mob models. If it were possible, Wynncraft would've been done a long time ago. Vanity armour in the form of coloured leather armour would be pretty cool (seeing as most high level armour are all diamond armour, and that is boring to look at), but I disagree with everything else you say. The only way I could see this being implemented is with the helmet slot, using HD heads or retextured items.

If you mean replacing the item texture (the texture that displays in your armour slots or inventory, not the model when worn), that would be possible.

Because it would be impossible. Also stop being rude.

They weren't buggy. Mojang removed setting skins to sites outside of their domains because it was a security flaw, particularly when used with heads. (you could get your IP Address fucked by a third party)
When trying to fix this they made it so that skins couldn't be set without a private key, even if somehow players could manage to set skins outside of Mojang's servers. (as is the case now with HD heads) You could do this by creating a bunch of bot Minecraft accounts to set their skins, but that would be REALLY expensive.

 

It was removed before the path due to mojang proclaiming it a form of hacking.
Specifically, they saw forcibly updating players skins as a sort of accesses to there accounts.
This was later patched of course.

 

its still possible with plugins actually, but im pretty sure they removed it because of the security flaw. here i'll show you


though the video demonstrates this with a head, its possible to do it with skins. what they blocked was not updating player skins but rather adding a variety of things to prevent a head or skin from being set to an unauthorised link, with heads, they merely block access as heads only require a base64. however with skins rendered on it is more complex, as they require a game profile signature and value, which is how SkinsRestorer does it.

 

I just don't find it plausibly needed right now. Even if we could possibly add them right now, (that wouldn't get us in trouble) it wouldn't be really something that adds something of value to gameplay.

 

While you're correct that wool does work that way, allowing for 16 different block textures, unfortunately armour does not, it just recolours one texture from the resource pack.

 

Yeah, sorry to that Razor fella, it does seem quite rude now that I read it back. I think skins were a bit buggy beforehand tho, I remember sometimes they didn't work or took ages to load in. I even heard somewhere that they caused lag, but I am not sure 'bout that.

Guys let's all be chill, nobody wants their opinion trashed and obliterated. Let's make sure we are being smart with what we post, to ensure something bad doesn't happen. Flame wars are the worst for this community, so let's try to keep them at a minimum. Thanks for listening ;)

 

That's what I meant for vanity, yes. You'd have to have the armor to make it vanity though. So you couldn't just make leather diamond. For instance, I like the look of chain and I have chain armor, but my gold is better. So, I'd like to have gold armor that looks like chain.

And for the armor styles, would it be possible for colored leather armors to have different models? Or would it just be a different color of what would be the new leather model.

 

I'm not sure about the model tag in 1.14, but that may only work for items. The other way they could go is optifine which they will never do.
There is a fan made texture pack for that.
