Default F everything about this. (Brown Skeletons)

I got them to work, but here's a rant on this.

Some person (read: asshole) at SOE decided this section of code would be funny: (warning, nerd talk)
Code:
  if ( *(_DWORD *)(this + 608) == 60 ) // race offset of eqplayer
  {
    if ( v4 > 0 ) // check to see if the texture passed to change the texture is above 0
      *(_BYTE *)(this + 596) = 0; //assign offset in eqplayer for texture to 0
  }
Brown skeletons were race #60, texture #1. Guess what SOE did? They cockblocked me, and made it so race 60 always is texture 0.

Coming to a P1999 near you as soon as I write a program to sort out this mess of a code SOE wrote. >________>

that is kind of a weird, are there certain locks on textures for other races or is this an anomaly? Seems like one since you can get all the textures for golems and shit

It is a deliberate cockblocking for whatever reason. It only happens with race 60, and only with race 60 textures. It is on the client, not the server (note we don't control anything about the client aside from text files.)

that is pretty cockblocky. I was only wondering in case there were like other secret hidden textures that were never released into the world that could also be unlocked.

Go to Kaesora and ask if anybody knows where the invisible kitty wall is.

no way! I'm color blind and the shading may be off, but I remember on live the red skele was like bright yet dark and was a level ~75 necro spell of some sort.
