[IDEA] cape/cloack vanity

[zejak]

So,I have an idea. Idea is new vanity- cape/cloack to go on your back.It would either be plain or with pattern like RE logo.

[SniperGoth]

What a curious timing and coincidence.
I started making one some days ago

Mhmmm, wouldn't that be very difficult to animate? I guess it will look very odd and static, or require considerable work on the engine side.

I think it would be perfect to have cape in RE.

[freezurbern]

if it can be animated to flutter in the wind only while the player is moving, that'd be neato.

I can already see this flapping through people's legs and geometry.

Looks a bit short for a cape, though.

[IQrate]

It could be red with some simbols on it, probably RE icon.

hmmm I think its not a good idea, some points:
- it will be static as hell, even if you add animations only when player is moving, this will be still static as hell when player died and fly a little, or when you doing parkour, this always will be positioned in relativity to player so this not be a cape, rather iron material attached to player - rotating as player without any normal physics 'feel and look'
- this now overlaps other vanities on shoulder and some on torso (badge etc), Ill managing vanities in one blend file, and by just looking at that I think "omg another overlaping hard to-or impossible to manage thingy"

[Dziq]

still, please make this not overlapping with shoulder vanities and these on torso. . please if you can. I working on vanities to make them better and all of them can be combined without ugly overlapping, and this cape, judging from images in first post, its only one vanity that is impossible to manage this way. I know players can choose only vanities which dont overlap but this is not very pro if you ask me this should be "moron proof" based from beginning
