You mean what your character is wearing on the gameplay screen, as opposed to what is in the inventory grid?

You'd have to draw yourself a whole new set of animations somehow...which would be a load of work.

I never played D1, so I'm not sure how much different it looked...but you're limited in armor.txt to those body part columns and the choices of either 0, 1 or 2 for those various columns.

Perhaps you could use the new version of the CV5 program to import over some old character animations, but then you'd have to replace an existing character's animations with those ones...which could make for a hefty sized patch when you're done.

In any case, if you want to explore this more, I'd suggest heading over to the Graphics and Animation Forum. In fact, let me close off this thread and move it over to that forum right now. ....

Might be the other way around (in fact I think it is) Maybe he wants D1 inventory graphics but D2 character graphics.

I've seen your mods to armor...gorothon when I was helping you out last week. Don't you already have D1 inventory graphics? I could have sworn you did...

Still confused, gorothon.

If you simply change the inventory graphic for scale mail but change nothing else, she will still be wearing D2 style in the gameplay screen.

The body part columns in the armor.txt with the 0, 1 and 2 values are the only thing that control what body armor looks like in the game.

I know I must be misunderstanding something here. Maybe I haven't had enough sleep lately.

With Diablo 1, they didn't have on-screen GFX for ALL armor and helm types like they did in D2. For example, you could wear studded leather and a skull cap and your warrior, sorcerer, rogue, or monk (Hellfire) would still look the same until you put on something like Splint Mail, Arkaine's Valor, etc.... which would give you a helm and armor graphic as though you were wearing both helm and armor. It didn't go into such detail as D2 where ALL pieces had an on-screen graphic for when you were wearing them.

For D1, the on-screen Scale Mail GFX shared those on-screen GFX with most of the other armors, such as the Splint Mail, Chain Mail, etc......
