Anyway to make the smaller races, actually appear smaller?

[154684321654951 73]

In Lord of the craft it is relatively easy to distinguish the four races, and their sub-races, from each other.

Orcs: Green Skin

-Shaman: Clothing

-Nomads: The stereotypical Orc

-Goblins: Shorter than Orcs

Elves: Pointed Ears

-Dark: Darker skin

-Wood: Armour/clothing resembles the forest.

-High: Bright clothing, fair skin.

Dwarfs: Beards, shorter than humans

-Mountain: Generic Dwarf

-Cave: Perhaps lighter skin or eyes.

-Forest: Armour camouflages with forest

Humans: If they aren't any of the above they're likely a human.

-Northerner: No defining physical features really.

-Southeron: Same issue as the Northerners.

-Halfling: Smaller than dwarfs and humans

What I wanted to ask was, is it possible to edit height/width of a certain subrace. For example when a new player choses to become a goblin their 'avatar' is say a head shorter than a human character. I'm only asking this because it is hard to display height with a skin, dwarfs don't have as much a problem because, a) their height difference isn't as great as goblins and halflings, and B) they can be recognized by their beards.

Anyway let me know what you think.

Already been suggested before http://www.lordofthecraft.net/forum/index.php?/topic/25055-actual-appearence-could-use-spoutcraft/page__p__118522__hl__height__fromsearch__1#entry118522

but i think it could defiantly add to the game

You can add your height to your character's description.

I'm a half-orc with a height of 6'8". Most orcs/nomad orcs are 6'11"-8'

I'd suspect elves range from 6'-8', both extremes being pretty uncommon; and most falling between them.

I'm not really going to comment on dwarves and halflings, because I have no idea.

This is a cool idea, but to change the size of a character, you would have to edit skins to fit that new size, it would end up being a con of choosing one of the fictitious races.

^ It depends on if it is coded to do the squash before or after texture addition, and sense people have to log to change skins it would probably have to be squashed after, meaning the skins would be squashed automatically.
