DayZ Virtual Paper Doll - Community Clothing Suggestions (v1.30)

[Evil Minion 943]

There are plenty of clothing suggestions floating around so I decided to collect some of them (most of them I hope) and related ideas and put them here. I would also like to get some community feedback on those suggestions to categorize/rank suggested items.
 

* cleanup

* headwear poll results

* added PASGT helmet

* added Baja Hoodie, Lennon Sunglasses

* added Yukon Pack, Leather Gaiters and Leather Reinforcements

* removed implemented items

Slots

Different slots would increase realism and options (being able to wear a coat above a shirt) but are by no means required - all items on the list (save attachments) should still work with the existing slots. Newly suggested slots have their poll results (votes +/-) written behind them. 2 users voted against new clothing slots.

• Feet (boots etc.)
• Socks (socks/rags etc.) - 10/16

Actions

• wear in a different fashion (e.g. turning around a baseball cap, rolling sleeves) - techncally implemented with craftable Bandanas

• add duct tapeor hide to increase protection but lower flexibility

Other Thoughts

Getting Dirty
When worn and especially when worn under certain conditions (e.g. outer layer when prone) clothes become dirty. This might change their appearance (obviously) and also impair their performance in some cases. Maybe dirty clothes also come with a higher risk of infection or degrade faster than clean clothes.
 
Layered Inventory:
Some clothes might restrict access to clothes worn below them masking the inventory space or increasing access speed. So wearing a long skirt above your cargo pants requires you to get below the skirt first (either by taking it off or in a similar way you access first aid kits) unless you slit it which damages the skirt slightly reducing its protection value.
 
Pocket System:
The inventory space of a piece of clothing is divided into several pockets of different size making it harder to store big items. When hit pockets should count separately so a hit might damage you backpack and items inside a certain pocket while others stay unharmed.

=> 33 users voted and 12 wanted a complex pocket system, 8 wanted a simple pocket system and 7 wanted to keep the current system

 

Finer Grid Inventory:

The current item slots are divided into 4 or even 16 smaller slots. This allows for more diversity in item size and reduces the instances where small items take up a lot of space. On the other side it allows for some smaller fluctuations in similar sized items without having them to be unrealistically big. This allows for a better item balance by inventory slots used (e.g. the Magnum being bigger than the Makarov).
 
Wetness:
Every piece of clothing has a certain amount of water it can soak up. The more it has stored the heavier it gets and the slower it becomes dry. The values of all worn clothing (as well as the value of the survivors body) will be added up and becoming dry happens at a fixed rate depending on your temperature (the higher the faster given you do not sweat) - this means getting rid of wet clothes helps becoming dry much faster. The doffed clothes keep the same relative amount of water (e.g. your overall value is 50/100 and you take off a shirt that can store 20 its value will be 10/20 while your value changes to 40/80) but become dry separately (which is much faster). Protective clothing (Raincoats, Dry Suits) would divide this into multiple "layers" (the dividing piece of clothing would belong to the outer layer) that store water separately. Only the innermost layer applies to your survivor (in terms of a higher infection risk etc.) but all add weight or might destroy items stored within this layer. Furthemore for a layer to become dry all layers above have to be dry first (so you become dry from the outside).

 

The effects of headwear/facial wear (27 voters):

• 8 voted for purely costmetic effect
• 13 voted for protection against attacks (significant)
• 16 voted for protection against weather (significant)
• 13 vote for identification denial
• 16 voted for vision obstruction
• 16 voted for vision alteration (blur, color etc.)

thanks for creating one central post, maybe this could become something like this:

[alexeistukov 272]

Well done evil! Glad that we can now organize another major section of the forum. Thank you and God bless!

[Redstar Payne 54]

this makes sense for the most part as long as we dont see too much unneeded stuff but things like holsters, face covers, pads, plating for vests, new packs, and some accessories would be a nice touch i just dont see a use for the baby mask and spikes or even the ninja outfit as well as the jewelry are just majorly pointless to me because one ninjas are just an over used game items that really never fits and jewelry you would never really see. All in all good go man i like the post and really like how it adds all posts to one.   

[Chaingunfighter 917]

The underwear area entirely relies on the fact that the devs will add nudity (which may or may not happen, although they probably would've modeled the characters nude already if they really wanted it) unless you just propose swappable clothing in said region.

 

Some of the clothes seem a bit over the top or unnecessary (like the Ninja Suit, I mean wtf?) but a lot of them would be nice aesthetics. Also, the fur hats and clothes could be crafted and provide a lot of extra warmth when (hopefully) temperatures have a bigger effect on the environment and the player.

[Evil Minion 943]

Yes - underwear could work as swappable as well. Its just to provide more variety (and gamplay options) and some of the other suggestions might look pretty silly with the current set.

 

There are some joke items on the list as well - though we also got clown masks ingame. As long as they are implemented in a realistic and believable fashion they would make the game more diverse. And maybe some creative players will put them to good use.

[Evil Minion 943]

Updated

[AnyoneInCherno? 187]

I do appreciate that you added credits, thank you :)

 

And yes, these are pretty good ideas. Good post.

[w1lg5r 70]

In addition to wetness we should get dirty and bloody as should our clothes.

 

Also, what about British MTP: http://www.springfields.co.uk/media/catalog/category/prod_6406.jpg

British DPM: http://www.armynnavy.com/catalog/catalog/images/soldier95.jpg

French CE: http://thumbs2.ebaystatic.com/d/l225/m/m5Qkqx25trCyCYyZCGY632Q.jpg

Russian digital flora: http://www.rusmilitary.com/images/digital_flora.jpg

Russian beryozka: http://www.sovietarmystuff.com/images/products/201107272019410.200902071250370.klmk31.jpg

Russian SMK (SF): http://i933.photobucket.com/albums/ad178/escammo/smk_jacket.jpg  http://www.tridentmilitary.com/new-photos10/r13jb.jpg

I'd also like to see MARPAT http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:MARPAT_woodland_pattern.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:MARPAT_desert_pattern.jpg

because people are gonna steer towards wearing military clothing and the more variety we can get in that the better.

[theevancat 94]

Ah, a thread for clothes. It's good that we're consolidating because it's a more reasonable place to look for ideas than a thousand different places.

 

And so on the subject of rolling sleeves, I wrote a thread that explains that this could probably be easily done by the devs:

 

http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/196475-rolling-your-sleeves-and-why-i-think-it-can-be-done-easily/?hl=%2Bcan+%2Bbe+%2Bdone+%2Beasily

[irishroy 1347]

I suggest some pictures:

Leather pants / Chaps

 

 

Poncho made out of cloth

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dunno, maybe different holsters.

Beltholster

 

 

Revolver-belt (all pistols, Longhorn excluded)

 

 

Leg-holster (for sawn off shotgun, Longhorn)

 

 

Chest-holsters:

[Redstar Payne 54]

just for the hell of it i want a drill Sargent hat so i can truely be Major Payne lol 

[Evil Minion 943]

Updated - added a poll to get some community feedback.

[Evil Minion 943]

Bumping this because people are starting to suggest the same stuff again.

[alexeistukov 272]

Could use some military officer caps in the game.. so I could look like Alexei Stukov :)

[w1lg5r 70]

perhaps clothes that if you found them all would make you look like one of the original survivors from the mod

[Evil Minion 943]

Added those items though many of the mod survivor clothes are already ingame (Baseball Cap, Tactical Vest) or on the list (Dress Shirt, Gun Holster). Also added the Military Officer Cap even though we will get a (similar) Police Officer Cap soon.

[degude 133]

A leg holster could be nice

This could be some combination of belt and leg-pocket

[irishroy 1347]

Some gloves:

 

• Leather gloves
• leather driving gloves and finger-cut-gloves #1  #2

[Evil Minion 943]

Updated. Added a Gag as a acoustic version of the Burlap Sack and Rubber Gloves that might prevent you from getting an infection. I also included the latest pictures for gloves and the dyeing action.

Edited July 5, 2014 by Evil Minion

[Evil Minion 943]

Lets bump this before people start opening new clothing suggestion topics again. :)

[theevancat 94]

Camo variety could be achieved through different Eastern bloc camouflages. I know Armenia has a kickass digital scheme. Georgia uses MARPAT and Multicam. Everyone else pretty much uses a whole variety of stuff. With the Soviet Union, there arelots of old utilities kicking around.

[Evil Minion 943]

The Police Uniform is implemented now. I decided to keep it on the list but crossed out the line.

 

Poll might stay up a little longer to give people a chance to cast their votes.

[irishroy 1347]

Hunting Jackets to match the Hunting Pants
