Customizable Horses

Psycher! · 07-01-2012

Ever since their release, horses have become super popular and almost essential in iClassic. However, with the releases of new horses/rideable animals, it's almost like a scam. You pay lots of money for something that does just about the same thing as the previous one, but it looks different. It would be kind of pointless to buy something like that armored panda unless you want to flaunt your virtual riches. As a solution (if you consider this a problem) would be the ability to customize your ride. The player would be able to switch between base models (horse, wolf, panda, that gargoyle thing, etc.) and add on things like armor, horns, things that look cool on pandas, and other things. The player would also be able to change the ride's colors and maybe even how the fire breathing looks.

Any thoughts?

Thank you for pointing that out, now I feel like an idiot.

Creating a horse in Paint.NET is different from buying add-ons. I like the idea, but it's not going to be easy to code

no horses should have different powers then any other mount, its strictly cosmetic, at least it was supposed to until Stefan made it so two expensive mounts can carry two people and ruined it,

I wasn't exactly suggesting they have special abilites, just that they have some method of customization to make them look more unique. I agree with you on that actually, having them have special abilities would be a little stupid, since as the armored panda has shown us, it would probably be a worthless ability and a reason to give it an absurd price.

Higbey edited the horse with red eyes and made them purple. How do you upload such a template though?

How much would it cost?

I didn't make that. That was a recolor made by someone else, A mount I made from scratch off the template was a demonic snake dragon thing with real flapping wings, I have to edit it though because I didn't shade it with enough contrast and I don't like the way I did the red eyes anymore. Maybe next holloween I could get it sold.

Now that is cool.
