    rant: well, see windcontrol *is* still possible for homecoming. the powerset is already complete and just needs fx to be made more appropriate. and there are plenty of existing assets that can be swapped out, in the same way other sets were completed, i.e. sentinel sets that differ, and some of the radiation sets. [see here: ] oddly, coxg released their wind control right after i suggested this. i doubt there is a direct correlation but it's super coincidental lol.

     

    and lots of those npc costumes parts, as you mentioned, from the -n tailor work just fine within the homecoming parameters. including the lamashtu skull bra parts, and the banshee dress, and the cimeroran sandals, and the AE skin, etc. those can be unlocked with the un-tagging just fine. 

     

    its only the parts on those other servers that theyve created themselves by taking and dividing up NPC's that were whole baked, like freaks and ppd. those parts we wont get, but the other things we still could... if the devs of homecoming cared to unlock it. but yeah homecoming is starting to lag behind 😮

    Do you happen to know how to get the "-n" thing to work on Mac??

    It's used for literally one NPC and nowhere else but both parts of her outfit is colourable and in the right categories in the NPC version of costume editor on the launcher.

    Unfortunately those above pics in Kismettes post are either from Rebirth or CoXG which has a large group of artists and coders working on converting a lot of NPC parts into player parts. They also have the Freakshow stuff available. However the problem is because it was developed for an Issue 23 server and not the unique coding of Homecoming, those parts cannot be translated to Homecoming with ease and, due to the animosity shared between the SCORE crew and those running the Issue 23 servers, we're unlikely to get all the massive costume updates they made even if they COULD be easily translated over. 

     

    Sadly it's also the reason that while we get a new, rather lackluster if I'm honest, AT in Sentinels we don't get things like wind control, water control or the Guardian AT since they were developed for those servers as well, with the Guardian AT not being liked by the HC devs and the creator of it wishing for it to remain exclusive to Rebirth for a period of time (meaning not even CoXG gets it).

     

    It does seem that our devs are focusing on power balancing, which is great and all but currently those issue 23 servers have waaaaayyyy more costume content especially since they've massively lifted the unique NPC only restrictions( if its used by a signature villain/hero it usually doesn't get transfered across) which the HC team seem very reluctant to do even if the costume parts wouldn't require work to have it done so.

     

    This is what you can do in the current Titan Icon with the -n command

    OMG! this costume is amazing! WOw wow wow! so on other servers they are making costumes available? I may have to make the jump! I hope Homecoming dives in and just makes the easy fixes to make these available. There's so much untapped content! .. I've never even seen this one before. 

     

    Yeah I love that HC has done a lot of power balancing but I hope they can do something for us who love character creation and customization because having these extra NPC costume options would really reinvigorate my drive to create new ALTs in the game. I hope they come through.

    i mean, sure but let each individual player decide what to use and not use? *shrug* xD RELEASE THE KRACKEN [*npcCreator*]!

    Yeah release it all! Let us use all the content available in the game. Seems like such a simple thing to do. I hope they can make it all available in next patch. We need Desdemona and Ghost widow hair please!!!!! and belladona vetrano!

    You're a G** D*** PB Guide

    Yo this guide helped me immensely! My PB is now Level 50+ with Perma Light Form Fully IO'd heals and attack powers and just got her Musculature for more damage. I don't know how I'll go back to playing other Archetypes after this. I feel like a very strong Blapper with high defenses. I can run into any mob, then build up, then Nuke, heal if needed and keep going. It's amazing! My next goal is to get enough Influence to slot my stealth, combat jump, and manuevers with luck of the gambler.

    theres a ton of npc parts that are useable by players. you can see then in Icon by a simple "-n" addition in one of the file locations. forget where exactly but im sure you can find it in the forums.  you can play with and use a ton of parts and new combinations, and even save the costumes that will load in game just fine, but the server wont let you use them because theyre tagged as -npc and forces you to fix them. but they DO load just fine and work with powers and everything. its not a model issue. its an "unclicking of that tag" issue somewhere.

     

    its totally possible, and im not sure  why it hasnt been done already, unlocking the npc creator for all. clipping is not a valid reason, things have always clipped and no reason the players cant decide. and 'taking away from NPC's' isnt a reason, because theres plenty of NPCs with all pieces already available to players, and having more variety to mix and match, ESPECIALLY as we are now playing a game from a bygone age is also not a great reason. everything should be unlocked [costume wise] in the character creator. theres tons of cimeroran parts, armors, sandals, sashes, that theres no reason to limit.

     

    now, mind you, it does not include things like snake tails or some arachnos spider-people or coralax things and such, as many NPCs were written as one solid piece, but that's what those costume change halloween powers were for [and should be brought back!]. but perhaps in the future, someone might be able to hack up those solid piece NPC models and make them separate pieces, but im sure thats more complicated.

     

    anyway, FREE THE NPC PARTS! im all for it. especially ghose widows hair. [belladonna vetranos from praetoria is the best hair in game IMO.]

    So you are saying that these hairs are accessible in icon?
