I dont get why the devs cant just turn them on. If it makes the game harder to code that is one reason, but to preserve the classic feel? Models are from what I understand client side; if someone doesnt want to see them, they dont see them.

Aside from the animations, I kind of like the luclin models, espeially Iksar.
This one has been beat to death. It's not as simple as "flipping a switch." In order to get this working the right way, the devs would need to enable the Luclin expansion. Enabling Luclin on the server would also enable a lot of other things from the expansion such as zones and AA's. Those things would then have to either be disabled or coded out.

There is a way to do it, Combine and Sleeper were examples as the Luclin models were available from the beginning. However, I'd much rather the Devs spend their limited time fixing quests, Kunark, PvP, or other server related things, rather than enabling a superficial item. Hence, the work I did researching and testing this myself.
