I know it's not a traditional Amazon look, but for some reason the name just seemed to fit well.

She's really nice !! Great work again Arkeyla. I like her light skin tone !

And I just completed a bottle for her, so she will be in the Allskins mod as well!

And yes, the mod does allow for more skins to be added, I have 16 empty bottles (placeholder bottles) that you can associate with new skins (at least that's how I assume it will work). Lufe will have to give more details as to how to actually do that.... I'm sure it will be in the readme files included with the mod, which will be released tomorrow - bar lighting strikes, torrential downpours, or other divine interventions...

And Arkeyla, after having looked extensively at all the skins that are out there, it would be really nice if there were some more quality male skins available - In essence, there are probably only a dozen or so distinctive male skins available... which is a lot fewer than what is available for female toons...

[lufe]

If Arkeyla manages to have her last skin done until tomorrow, we'll still add it to the standard skins of the AllSkins pack

But let's say she doesn't make it, all you have to do is:
Get the skin out of her zip file (the femalepc01_<color>.tex), then rename it to femalepc01_Nyours_Placeholder<Color>.tex and copy it to
C:\Program Files\THQ\Titan Quest Immortal Throne\Database\Creatures\pc\female (after having the mod installed, of course).

<Color> is one of the 16 available colors:
Black, Brown, Burgendy, Crimson, Gray, Hunter, LightBlue, Olive, Orange, Purple, Rose, RoyalBlue, Slate, Tan, White.

So, basically, even after the mod installed, you can add up to 16 additional skins of your choice to:
femalepc01_Nyours_PlaceholderBlack
femalepc01_Nyours_PlaceholderBrown
femalepc01_Nyours_PlaceholderBurgendy
femalepc01_Nyours_PlaceholderCrimson ... etc

same procedure can be done for males, of course.

C:\Program Files\THQ\Titan Quest Immortal Throne\Database\Creatures\pc\male is the directory, and

malepc01_Nyours_PlaceholderBlack ... etc are the names of the skins.

Once the file is copied, you access the skin with the respective color you copied on the standard trader. He has all the 16 "placeholder" skins.

Is it understandable, what I've just explained, or not? I'd really want to know it.

It makes sense to me, lufe, and it sounds great!

[Arkeyla]

Oooh, random sense making! Unfortunately, no chance of getting it done that quickly. Stupid getting up a t stupid hours of the stupid morning to stupid get me and daughter stupid ready for stupid schooling and stupid bleeping weather report says we might have stupid rain and I hate stupid lugging around stupid umbrella...

Right. That's out of my system now... yes, I will eventually give a male skin or two a go as well. Mainly cause I'm itching to do something odd to amuse myself and make a drag queen male skin.... of course, I'll do Mr Studly Hero as well.

Glad to see you can do it so well in writing form, Arky

That would be funny to see (the drag queen, I mean )

But may I ask you, whenever you have more free time, would you consider making DiabloII's Amazon and Sorceress too? If you say yes, I'll post their pics for you here. It's just that I would like to have them, sometime, again on the game I play. They've been my player companions for a long time while I played DII

[Arkeyla]

That would be interesting to do, though from what I recall about those two characters there would have to be some artistic license involved, as the Sorceress has some for of long skirt thingy... though I could be getting my games confused!

[Arkeyla]

Have actually made a start on the drag skin... running out of free time at a fantastic rate so will hopefully manage to get it done, but don't hold your breath yet...
