Hello, all!

Over the past 6-12 months, we have been working on redoing basically every single Hair for our Avatar system. In total, we currently have 153 different Hairs. As you can imagine, it took quite a lot of time to complete this project.

But alas, we have completed it and basically everything is now live and in game! There are still ~4 more Hairs that need some last minute layering edits (#81, #89, #92, and #121), which will be put in ASAP, but basically everything is completely wrapped up now.



Below is a short list of what we did:

-Redid all linearts to make sure every Hair looked of the same style.

-Redid all shading and highlights to improve their look and to make sure every Hair looked of the same style.

-Redid layering for all applicable Hairs to improve layering with other Styles (such as Ears and Beards), and items.

-Hairs with accessory items now all have the ability to have those accessories colored.

-Hairs #58-62 are now all unique.



If you are still seeing the old Hairs on your Avatar, it is because the image is cached. Most likely, it is cached on the server side of things. Unfortunately, the only real solution to this is to ever so slightly change your Avatar to have the server compile a new image. You can simply do this by changing any one hex code by a single value (such as making the Red hex 151 instead of 150).

I'll throw in some examples of the new Hairs down below. =)

I just put on hair 50, and found a layering issue - the braid goes over the shirt of my outfit, but under the shorts.
Edit: unless it is supposed to end abruptly like it does. but i thought there was a little tuft on the end.

That is how that Hair is designed. The tie at the end is the end of the hair.
