Modding (even just replacing 3D visuals of gear / weapons) would undermine GGG's income source, so ofc it will never be allowed or made possible.
Again, not modding.
Access to the models, to use to publish mockup armors, which could be sent to GGG, or better yet, put on a voting forum for which skins we want next in the game.
This wouldn't allow us to USE our created models in game. Just to create them on the base characters.
Ok, I see. Still the process of creating models is highly tied to existing animation rigs (which are different for each class), this is especially important for body armor. GGG would need to correct / adapt user submitted models and sometimes its easier / cheaper to create from scratch, than correct other people's work.
I just dont see GGG giving us all this data / opening their production specs to the public.
True on that, that's why I'm thinking just sketchups. I'm not positive on how the community made uniques are submitted now, but having access to models to make a sketchup of what you are thinking could potentially be useful for the ones who are able to use 3d modelling programs.
So yes GGG would still need to remake the models for the most part, but it would reduce back and forths between the community item maker and the GGG modeller. Less of "is this good? how about this?"
