I believe my avatar (which was bought for me by Digitz), Paladin, is mainly a recolor of another one I've seen in-game that doesn't have to be bought. Now i don't feel special :(

But still, the concept is awesome.
My avatar wont change either and i would be happy just to see others with it. :abject:

What i meant was that some avy's (including mine) that are buyable may not be needed, since the player could now just change color to make it look like that.

When egg made lycanthropy re-activatable, everyone with an IQ less then 80 was teasing me with it, saying "Look LC, I've got your avvy!" :roll:

You're 100% absolutely positive on that Rufio? I suppose there might be some supernatural beings or aliens around. It is possible.

Did you custom draw each item or are you using some special way via grayscale that I think I recall you mentioning in another thread? Quite impressive either way. I think the armours really outshine the weapons IMHO; at least those that I see here.

EDIT -
I couldn't find kodiak's old post as I got bored going through posts so I finally found some of his edited weapons and then my lazy attempt to continue his work. I never finished and so you don't have anything really extra here. I just thought I'd repost some of this idea from way back. As you will plainly be able to see, I never did much of anything besides think of categories based on other games.

there aren't any new pngs added - all that happens is that on a pixel level, if the rgb components are equal (ie that pixel is pure grey) then that pixel can be tinted - so the greyscale pixels also act as a mask so you don't tint the whole thing. the tint values are in either the item code for avs or in the materials.txt file for items

Ah, gotcha. Now I know why the handles all look the same. That's a pretty neat method.

5 feb moa 0.96h
* added Chronicles of Kurzmord'ar, Necromancer (thx oze) book texts, renamed Chronicles of Ncheuleft to Chronicles of Kurzmord'ar
* chg'd all refs from kazadoom to Kurzmord'ar
* add visible tint colouring to tools and bone items
* to bind item to number key you now have to hold CTRL .. this is because
* you can now type 123..0 in when / searching for items in your inv
* when readying, space is disabled when / searching (use enter to toggle readiness)
* can now fish and chat - press TAB to reel in instead of space.
* IVPY, FG now pvp
* INH, IZH, IFH now pvp
* IZH & INH have flat 50% success rate - but the time asleep/poisoned is scaled to mr-int difference (in a similar fashion to magic damage in general - ie it uses the new formula)

4 feb
* finished client support for visibly tinted objects and player avs
* added support for mobs with long item codes (eg statues)
* toned down the new tint colour values for materials
* ensured all weapons and armour were desaturated so that they tinted properly

2 feb
* book on bookstand - you can put any book you like on a blank bookstand and read it!
* workshopped tinted avatars with good progress
* tinted weapons engine done but some weapons need to be desaturated, also doesnt work with 16x16 tileset, and maybe not with shaded lighting & large

* added a Lord Broden npc that disappears when Broden the player logs in! (as they are meant to be the same character!)
* added pkt grouping and compression to buy from merch
* when you use a tile scroll, the old tile is now saved as a tile scroll in your inv (so you no longer need to use a renovation wand first to save the old tile)
* added /send command for dms that works for mobs - as req by dm beavis
* did some groundwork to allow custom avs for player containers and better saving in general
