<p>Is there really a graphics overhaul of some sort in the works? When is it due to go live? Are there any screenshots or pictures that show what the new skeletons or whatever will look like?</p><p>How long ago was thia talked about?</p><p>Is it one of those things that was mentioned way back in the day and will probably never happen?</p>

Im gonna say expect it with ROK. During E3 this year the producer gave an interview and talked about how the graphics were turned all the way up and there was zero lag or frame rate issues. ITs just a guess but have a gut feeling we will see it with ROK.

<p>I hope they dont mess the characters up.   I would hate to log in and find the entire player base look like classic model / soga model hybreds.  </p><p>Maybe I worry too much , I hope they look nice.</p>

A few points, a skeleton system isnt "seen" so a screenshot of one would prolly not show anything at all, unless you took a screenshot of say, tokens for the bones in the system. Its basically a 3dimensional mathematical whizbang system. Like matrices and stuff being multiplied and vectors getting changed with resulting matrices. Quite interresting, but easy to get confused by. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> And the devs said that we as players shouldnt see any differens in the basic appearance of races at all. The benefits of a new system would be twofold though. Better performance, and easier to make new graphics. Probably meaning more new graphics for us players in the future. <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />
