White Dye - Please Fix!

[martin93]

Floon, since you've already posted on the thread, my chances are greater of you answering this question.

Why do the gold dyes all look like piss on almost any item >.>

White looks good on 75% of stuff.

Good enough for me.

same... i think its a higher % for me...

White dye has made this game significantly more enjoyable for me. No, it's not blazing white in a few cases, but the ones where it looks good, it looks GREAT. And in all other cases, it's another option that lets us view the game in our own way.

White Dye, so far, looks great whenever i tested it. Keep up the good job.

Poor Floon.

Everyone annoyed about White dye should really just stop talking. Asking for it to do what you want it to do is akin to asking the federal government to turn the sky neon green. It can't happen.

Pretty much this. They did their best with a product they knew would be problematic. More folks complaining should be happy Turbine blew the time/resources on this change to begin with.

It has been looked into, and really won't change. ...(clipped for space)

Outstanding explanation Floon, I really enjoyed reading that, the technical info is so much better than a "it just doesn't work very well" type statment.

Also I remember quite well the early discussions on the forum as to why white dyes would be a bad idea and not shade well. They really haven't turned out badly at all, meaning you have done a nice job making them work. I'm wondering if you have anyplace left to go with dyes now, it seems like the color wheel ha been spun pretty much full circle.

How about the blending of dyes to get the desired colors you want? blend a green with a white and get a light mint green, yellow and green to get a golder looking green. Not unlike a couple of your multiple character names in your sig.

I would be for that, but I also seem to recall that this would require a major re-write rather than just be a simple fix.

Would that mean we could see late 80's/early 90's clothing? Hot pink pants with lime green tops?
