Assuming this is "kosher" (and not illegal modification of game files or something), does anyone have some alternative textures for the corpses that appear in space when a pod gets blown up? I'm specifically looking for added muscular definition/vascularity.

I know this is a bit off topic, but a petpeeve of mine is that somehow the corpses cant have genitalia.

Im not bringing this up because I get off on pixelated corpses [oh god no].
I also dont feel just making genitals visible automatically has to be concidered a sexual thing is all, its part of human anatomy and to somehow *pretend it isnt there* just seems so strange in this day and age.

Another good example would be Mortal Kombat 9, lots of violence...LOTS of violence, ripping people in half and such, clearly displaying most of the internal organs while doing so, not to mention the X ray moves which show in detail what happens to the opponents internal organs and skeletal structure as you turn them to mush.
And yet none of the characters have genitals, eventhough some Xray moves focus on the groin, because THINK OF THE CHILDREN! D:
It makes no sense...

As a man of science, I just cannot ignore the fact that the corpses are anatomically incorrect, CCP is Icelandic and normally skandinavians are alot more loose on this subject because nudity is less of a taboo, yet somehow CCP leans more towards the American moral view.

I know this wont change because our western morals are still somewhat backwards on alot of topics, but I just wanted to vent for a second and your topic will have to do damnit!

That is disgusting. Why the hell would you dress them up as clowns? That is pure evil. Dress them up as something less evil.

CCP Eris Discordia promised me that back in 2008… so it's part of the shelved old bright future of WiS and will never happen.

I'm a firm believer that podders only have gender visually.

Show me on this map of the party where the clown touched you.


I had a clown come up to me when i was young and ask me all sorts of strange questions - i thought it was a bit funny

Do you assume the dead bodies to be naked?

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

CCP doesn't care about WiS anymore.

Not really that simple and definitely not worth the trouble.

Also IIRC developer posted that Art team working on new corpses (I really hope that they making corpses based on character model)

Damn it, I knew I forgot something at Fanfest. I was going to visit that penis museum.

In any case, if CCP lean towards the American view that's because a large portion of their subscribers are American, and you just KNOW that if the game contained a digital willy that it would immediately be classified Adults Only in the USA. "Contains nudity" is a death sentence on video game sales in that country.
