How do you feel about Luclin Graphics?

I have male hfl\eru\iks\barb\de\cat\elf models on for the horse + illusions. I'd probably turn them all on if they didn't use so much memory.

I build computers to handle all models on, and play with them on. Game is flat boring and dated looking with them off.

i like some aspects of the models better. standing still i think i look better (WE male) than old models.

but the animations (running, melee) suck compared to their precursors.

i run with all models on except humans. mostly cause i never got around to switching it back when their used to be that GD bug w/ human models :P or something else who fucking knows.

old human models are way better than the new ones anyways.

I use 'em all.

I am so seriously thinking about petitioning to getmy custom helm made non custom tho. I mean, for the longest time I wanted a snake helm for my paladin. Then I get one. Then the next week I get Luclin, and go bald... but I'm stuck with the blue wingtip helm.

Bites. :(

I'm still mixed on em.

Some models, I like, some I don't. I think trolls, dark elves and ughres look cool. I don't mind halflings and humans. Think the barbarian posture is stupid (always slouching/crouching), don't like dorfs (they supposed to be stout, not freaking bow-legged!) or the iksars (plus I think the iskar bubble gum hat is too funny to change off). Love the fact that we can customize to the degree that we can, just wish the racial base face models had a little more variety: they all look very close to each other. I also agree with Voro on the animations: definate failing grade.

I keep half of the old models on for aesthetic reasons, not due to performance. The new Iksar model looks so incredibly bad to me. Thess looks like she's knocked up all the time. I'll take the old beady-eyed Iksar look anyday.

The new female gnomes all look like grannys...maybe that's what gnomes are supposed to look like but I prefer the old gnomes.

I would have preferred a new rendition of the old models with the same look and more detail. Most races look like they have broken hips in combat.

The way EQ is now, you never know how your character is being viewed. You can look semi sylish in with one model and have a clown hat with the other models. It should be all or none next time SOE decides to upgrade a games models.

I have all models turned on on one computer, just female DE and WE on the other. I hate the "buttocks-view" of the chain pants on DEs :)

My warrior looks really nice with the new models, and pretty dorky with the old.

The limp wristed combat animations are not worth the 3 minute load time. I keep them all off, and enjoy the 1 minute load with 30 second zones. =)
