Change the scale of the enki model

Physical Traits
Humanoids with feline features, the Enkidukai are smaller than humans... They are from 1.60 m to 1.70 m tall.

It is rather disconcerting to see enkis and especially fenkis in relationship to the other races. I really think the models should be scaled down to more closely match the description on the races page. Afterall the the Kran and Ynnwn seem to be the only races taller than the Enki.   :lol:

Very easy to change - a matter of switching a number in their .cal3d files. As soon as our Settings team nods in approval, it can be considered done.

I see no reason it should not be so.  Go for it Karyuu.

I do await the "hey my character looks wimpy" complaint.

I rechecked the files, and the Enkidukai male is already smaller than the Ylian. Perhaps you were comparing it to the Dermorian model? Just to make sure, open up the Ylian cal3d, and at the very bottom make sure that the <scale value="1.05"/>. For the Enki male, it should be 0.98. The female is at 1.14 by default, which I agree is rather high - change it to 1.07 and see if you like that better.

Demorian: 1.05

Enki female: 1.07
Enki male: 0.98

Klyros Male: 1

Kran: 0.024

Dwarf Female: 1
Dwarf Male: 0.92

Ylian Male: 1.05

Ynnwn Male: 1
Ynnwn Female: 1

Now, I'm not sure if your can compare the scales. Because the Kran is defiantly not a midget in the game.

The scaling is done on the model that is exported from the 3D application it was made in. If an artist created a model that's too big, we scale it down in the final .cal3d file. It's not a means of comparing the actual height of the models.

 *gasp* I'll be... petit! Oh well, it makes the settings correct, that's what matters (and it does look cuter...), as long as no one starts "dwarf jumping" with fenkis instead...

There's no way it could have - such a thing can only occur in updates, as it's not a server-side change.

Wont be able to change the height in character creation anyway? In which case it doesn't REALLY matter what height the characters are for testing purposes.
Hide where they expect you to... Its what they least expect.
