Actually you are partially right. When you make a model for a game like this you typically make two models. One model is high poly (which has all the details and texture info. And a low poly model which is basic planes. You then burn the texture and shadow info onto the low poly model. So indeed the tuxture is on the model and not the Dye. However that texture and reflective paints is done on a different step completely. There is no reason you cant add metallic paints or chrome to an existing model., For example here is one of my models. With a regular paint job. Here is the same model with chrome. Isuchrome

Well this is a request for more dynamic dye packs. Most of the dye packs are flat monotone colors, which look pretty good on most gear. However there are those pieces of gear that would be really cool with more dynamic colors and effects like the 505 series and others. Please consider some of these ideas. 1. Chrome. https://support.solidangle.com/displ...tudio+Lighting 2. Bright colors with some reflections. http://www.indigorenderer.com/materials/categories/13 3. Metallic colors. http://www.creativecrash.com/maya/do...metallic-paint 4. Rust. http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender...The_Rusty_Ball 5. Glass.

Oh That would be better. Thanks

For example you take a shuttle on Makeb and in route your companion falls to his death before you land.

Or you could focus on the terrible lag issues first.

Yeah this is just horrible right now. Certain planets are just terrible.

Best. Talent trees I like the changes to the talent trees and I like that my merc feels more mobile now. Worst. I would have said that the expansion was to small, but now I am completely leaning to the game being insanely laggy .

The leaders here in America have been proven to be incompetent, why do we still allow them to rule?

Fix the ability lag and my hate goes away.

Wow an original idea that I really like. I play Mercs mostly and some of my favorite guns are obnoxious sounding, the cartel market Gatling gun being a prime example. Props to the OP

Welp I am a 3d artist and I will give my view of whats wrong wit this model. I am including a picture of Lana with numbered areas that look wrong. 1. The light is coming from her upper left but the inside of her nose appears to have a strong light coming from lower left. 2. The Lips. Where the two lips meet should be darkest, yet on the model it is the lightest part of the lips. 3. The hair is really broken. They obviously made the hair separate from the face model. The hair that is next to her face acts as though is in direct light. In other words the face model is not casting a shadow on the hair. It almost appears as though her head is a lightbulb. 4. The hair is completely burned out. The hair has poor texture quality and reflects way to much light. 5. The most important part of the face is the eyes and hers are broken. The upper and lower eyelids don't seem to match up. Also the pupils and iris look flat. No detail or reflections on what should be a reflective surface. http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa329/drewdown88/374px-Lana_Beniko_zpsbdf4f46d.jpg

Only thing I hate about this game atm is Lag.

Why is this instance not a hardmode yet? I love instance and would like to see a harder version of it available.

Yeah cuz asking for less lag is an entitlement.

What crew skills do you have? For me slicing drop's many purples but it might just be your particular crew skill is bugged (which would not be a surprise)

Another victim of 12x

OK this is the scenario. I run a guild and we recently had to let an officer go. We have another officer that had been paying this guys sub. So the officer that was paying the sub asked the other guy to please delete his credit card info, and the guy said no. So after my officer went to the bank and canceled his card he logged on to the guys account and drained him of credits to the tune of 6mil. So when he told me , I wished I had not heard the story. So what would you do?

There are three on Rishi not counting the OPS and flash point. Ther are only 8 on Yavin not counting the OPS. Ok your bringing up OPS. I clearly in my post said nothing about OPS, The OPS are fine, but of course OPS do not fill up more than a small chunk of weekly game time. As a matter of fact most people will neer see the inside of those anyway.

If this is true how can you be so blind to the differences in content from Hutt expac and this one. They both cost the same but the Hutt expac has 2/3 more dailies and content. Hutt expac has what 12 heroics, this expac has none. This expac you have lost the ability to use group finder for all old content. By the way all old content has better rewards for lower risk than the new content. The Hutt expac had pvp, this expac has nothing new. I spend under an hour on new content with my 60 per day and the rest of my time is spent doing old content. The level 60 hardmodes are just old content that has be made harder, there isnt one new regular flashpoint.

Look Bio employees do make posts on the forums. True story.

With all the problems with this expansion, you biggest complaint is no 12x. Wow.

I have augmented power and I really am happy with the results. I am doing good damage and I was able to keep my acc, crit and surge in desired spots. As far as comparing it with a main stat, power is better for damage increases but if you are still low on other stats maybe the main stat would be better.

I am sure they drop 184 gear which is under the basic set, and 1 chance at a 192 piece at the last boss
