When I started this game it was on a whim I half assed my avatar and have always disliked it, but when walking in stations is released will we get a redoo for our Avatars , cause that lone would be simply fantastic.
So any ideas ?

I think I read that because of the new way the face is modeled it is not possible to convert the current portraits into 3D avatars, so when the expansion finally arrives we all will have a chance to redesign our avatar faces.

I haven't actually seen it, but I believe the character system would mean you don't simply design your avatar, you have to design your whole body too, which would mean everyone will get to design their own body, and with that their face too...

Yes but this expansion is at least a couple years away. 2 at least i would say.
As for the no credit card. you can get one anywhere, and it's a good way to improve your credit rating if you don't have one _________________________________________________________ My Second EvE Video Club Seals Not Sandwichs

WTB option to use existing avatar as the base for the new full-body one instead of trying to remember all the settings and spending an hour cursign at the screen because I can't get the face to look anything like my original avatar

Absolutely. I recently changed my avatar and i would hate to have to go through that again. 5-6 times i got it the way I wanted it, only to get a "disconnected from server" once I klicked the "create" button. Bugged the hell out of me.

Please please please can we have an option to keep our current heads. Last time I did a 'portrait swap' (because I wanted a different background) it took me almost an hour to get a new portrait that matched (facially) my original...
While I love the whole walking in station thing please dont force us to have to redesign our faces if we are happy with the ones we already have.

Atleast you got a hood to hide that face, I dont... There is no way to make a male Achura look natural, they simply look crap, especially the nose. Needless to say I picked the char for the stats and if it was possible I would gladly hide him under a hood!

Dude, it's not going to be possible... The whole creation mechanism will be different... Different underlying model, different morphing, different lighting...
You can't keep the old one, nor will you be able to get it to look exactly the same...
It's like trying to make a Quake 4 model identical to an old Quake 2 model in facial structure, just not possible from looking at that vid...
Some ppl might be able to get close, but everyone will look different, it's inevitable...

In theory I would like to keep my current look, however the fact that practically every other Intaki in existence looks to be my brother (or a close cousin at least) kinda screws it up.
CCP please make everyone else's Intakis look different from mine in the new character design wotsit? -
If you go into your options menu, there's a difficulty slider. Put that all the way over to the easiest setting and you'll be fine. |

I created a female character in another game once, and ended up with some 14 year old running after me asking if I wanted to be his girlfriend. Didn't matter that I said I was a guy, this kid still followed me like a damn puppy and wanted to cyber and whatnot. Eventually I had to go somewhere else and block him, but it did give me some insight into what some female gamers must feel. And I'm just never creating a female character ever again.

in EVE, we're just lucky to have an average player age of 27, well past the "OMG A GURL?!!1 U WANT 2 CYBER/? A/S/L??!!!?!!?!1/? WIAT, URE A 24 YR OLD MALE STRIPPER FROM MANCHESTER?.... REAL A/S/L PLZ." phase ***

Well, then there's of course the fact internet anonymity lets out the immature side of people, but female players does get a lot more attention than a male player does. Even if it's not always in the most immature ways as you describe.

I think you got unlucky with that kid Wrangler. I've never had a problem that bad in EVE, or even in other games. Well, yet...

I made a cute character for the ASL? defense at Gatecamps. It dosen't work BTW 
I suppose it would be diff with a fullbody avatar, having all those sad single mom's basement types hitting on a virtual character for a surrogate sex life. But that's what the ignore function is for!
Besides, if I have to look at a char's ass as I'm walking through a station, it might as well be a cute one, I'm a manly man too

I think it has been stated somewhere that since the system will be different, you will have to redesign your avatar from the ground up, including the face, since the current values and variables aren't compatible with the new ones.

I am special.
I choose my character cause I have Charisma and Social skills. My CHA is 25 and INT 25.
Whats yours?
Pictures never show the actual presentation of any RL person. Why would we not have a different Avatar and keep our forum and chat channel portrait the same. My drivers license is 10 years old. In RL I look much different now. Clankiller |
