Hiya, Not Used: Wands, wands, wands ... and rods! 787378!

I know you're a busy dragon and all, but i was getting ready for work this morning and I remembered this idea from the Vault years ago (I don't remem if it was this particular hak, but it's just an example). Whaddya think? More a flavor piece than anything, but if someone wants to use a wand with frequency, shouldn't we see it in their hands?

That would work, but not with custom Aenea wand parts, which don't have 3D models associated with them.

This is true, The Amethyst Dragon, but haven't you been giving the gmax a go? I know it's a lot of work, but ...

There are waaaay to many new wand parts for me to attempt making 3D models for them. Smile

Um ... outsourcing? I know this very industrious little village just outside of Mountainholm Castle ...

In all seriousness, I'm gonna have a quick-see at your wand package on the vault ... just out of curiosity.

Um ... what about a general, glowy placeholder type of wand? And rod? Could it be fenangled that no matter what wand or rod a PC equipped, the PC graphic would be a fixed one?

Not going to use this one, for a couple of reasons.

1st, the previously mentioned need to make a model for every wand and rod part (so they don't look like brown bags).

2nd, making this change would mean everyone would have to equip each wand or rod before being able to activate it (like the magical staves work now).
