Custom Weapon Skin
A Custom Weapon Skin cosmetic lets you get your very own hat made by one of our professional artists. It'll then be implemented into our resource pack (for everyone to see) without you having to do anything allowing it to be equipped like any other cosmetic using /custom. It's as simple as that, no faffing about!
Upon purchasing, you’ll be given a Redeemable in /redeem for your ordered custom cosmetic. Clicking on the Redeemable will create a ticket on our Discord where you’ll enter information on what you want your custom cosmetic to look like. Once that’s done, our Customs Art Coordinator will assign an artist to your ticket which may take up to 24-48 hours after you’ve provided the description. When the artist is added, they’ll communicate the progress on your custom directly in the ticket. Once the custom cosmetic is completed, it’ll be implemented into our official TallTalesRP resource pack and a member of our team will add the cosmetic itself in-game, where you will be able to type /custom to equip.
You cannot ask for a specific artist to make your custom, or ask to change artists. Each of our artists are assigned by our Customs Art Coordinator based on availability and the best match for your custom, and artists may already be busy with another order.
It may take up to 14-30 days for your custom cosmetic to be completed.
Each artist on our Customs team is a whitelisted member of the community who receives a fair portion of the revenue from each custom cosmetic they complete. As per our terms and services for all purchases made on the TallTalesRP store, we do not accept refunds for custom cosmetic orders.
GUIDELINES FOR DESCRIPTIONS
In order to ensure that the custom cosmetic you order can be completed in a reasonable amount of time and is ensuring that the custom cosmetic model and texture is not complicated to make, we have a set of clear guidelines you must adhere to when writing up the description of your model. If the custom cosmetic you’d like does not adhere to the guidelines, please do not purchase one or change the description.
- Customs must fit into the TallTalesRP Medieval Fantasy roleplay theme.
- Customs must not involve pop culture content.
- Customs must not involve NSFW or inappropriate content.
- All textures for customs are 16x16 resolution, we will not create higher resolution textures.
- Weapon Skin cosmetics cannot span larger than 2 blocks in height, 0.5 blocks in width.
- Weapon Skins can only be applied to MELEE, RANGED and MAGIC weapon types. This does not include vanilla-crafted weapons. Please specify which weapon type you intend the skin to be applied to.
- When specifying a weapon type that the skin can be applied to, you must only provide one type per skin - we do not provide the ability to apply one skin to two weapon types.
- Currently, we do not provide dyeable custom cosmetics. Only certain TallTalesRP pre-made cosmetics are dyeable.
While our artists will always try to provide the custom cosmetic based off of the description you provided, you will be asked to change the description should it include anything our artists cannot make.
Valid Weapon Types (specify a type when writing your description, only one type per weapon skin):
- MELEE
- Any Dagger, Shortsword, Claymore, Rapier, Battleaxe or Halberd
- RANGED
- Any Bow
- MAGIC
- Any Magic Staff, Magic Grimoire or Magic Wand
REQUESTING CHANGES TO CUSTOMS
If you wish to ask the artist to change the custom cosmetic design, you are free to do so once or twice throughout the duration that the ticket is open, as long as the request is reasonable*. Artists reserve the right to refuse a change you request.
*Requested changes must not stray too far from the original description, such as making the cosmetic appear entirely different. A minor addition like a leaf on a horn, or something small being removed from the cosmetic model is a reasonable change.
PURCHASING CUSTOMS ADDONS
You can optionally purchase addons for the custom cosmetic you're ordering. Addons are an additional cost on top of what you're paying for the custom cosmetic itself. When you add the custom cosmetic package to your cart on the webstore, you'll be prompted to select the addons you wish to get - you can set them to "None" if you wish to purchase no extra addons.
Current addons:
- Blockbench File Addon (additional $10)
- You will receive the .bbmodel file when the custom is completed. You are not allowed to resell the Blockbench File with real life money, cryptocurrency, in game currency or any other form of monetary value. If you break these terms, you will be permanently banned.
ADDITIONAL DISCLAIMERS
In order to ensure the size of our resource pack remains small so that lower-end computers can download it, our artists will keep the geometry and look of your model simplistic.
We also reserve the right to take other measures to reducing our resource pack size. For example, if you do not play on the server for more than 4 months (never log on in this time), we may take your cosmetic out of our resource pack and store it elsewhere. Should you return, you can open a general support ticket on our Discord and request your cosmetic to be added back in free of charge.
We do not give out the model or texture files of the custom cosmetic you order. The only way your custom is accessible is in game using /custom.
EXAMPLE WEAPON SKINS
You can view example weapon skin models our artists can make by looking at the pre-made weapon skin cosmetics we sell in our store.
Some pre-made weapon skins are dyeable, and as stated in the guidelines for descriptions, right now we do not offer dyeable custom cosmetics.
