Suggestion: Studio Armoire (new wardrobe tab idea)

I would like to RE-SUGGEST (previous ink) a NEW way to donate articles to be shared by studio members called the Studio Armoire.  The articles can be worn and seen by your studio members during Film Shoots. Eligible items include visible articles only, namely HEAD, CHEST, BELT, LEGS, and SHOES.

 

(Details Below)

 

 

* * *

 

STUDIO ARMOIRE ELIGIBILITY AT LEVEL 40 > PLAYER SIDE

The new tab for studio donations unlocks at Level 40 and is represented by a  [SA] Studio Armoire icon.  It becomes the 3rd panel of icons on the left side of YOUR STAR player screen allowing for one additional 3 x 2 panel (maximum 6 extra slots).

 

Note: Level 40 is also when the first of the extra Storage Tabs slots becomes available.

 

The [SA icon] is inserted to the right of the existing panels, and instead of looking like the [1] [2] [3] buttons as we know it, future game builds using Studio Armoire will look like this example:  [1] [2] [SA icon] buttons... this also means, [SA icon] replaces all other instances of the [3] button on other game screens (like within Storage Tab).

 

Players can freely move any items in and out of these 6 new [SA] slots including non-visible items, but only Head, Chest, Belt, Legs, and Shoe articles placed here will show up in the Studio Armoire during Film Shoots.

 

A tool tip tag is provided when hovering over the [SA icon] that reads: "Place Head, Chest, Belt, Legs, or Shoe items here to show-up in the Studio Wardrobe during Film Shoots."

 

 

STUDIO ARMOIRE > DURING FILM SHOOTS

Articles previously donated to the studio by members are available for same-gender studio members to try on during Film Shoots.  No stats are carried over except for the article name and body type.

 

Note: If your studio has only one male or one female character, Studio Armoire will not grant anything new to that player.

 

 

FILM SHOOT > ACCESSIBILITY

The [SA] Studio Armoire icon will be accessible near the cover image and unlocks after the 2-Star level is achieved during a Film Shoot.

 

Clicking the [SA] Studio Armoire icon displays a pop-up screen with your player character on the left. To the right of that are 5 boxes aligned vertically, one for each article type (Head, Chest, Belt, Legs, and Shoes). Inside each of the 5 boxes are icons of the current items being worn from your Personal Wardrobe.

 

To the right of that is a massive sort-able window of icons (maximum 180 articles) of all the "donated articles" with tabs at the top for filtering the 5 body parts (Head, Chest, Belt, Legs, and Shoes) plus a 6th tab that defaults to "ALL".

 

The massive scroll-able window looks and works similar to the whip-stitch / sewing machine.

 

Each article of clothing icon is shown once regardless of how many times it was donated in duplicate.

 

In the upper right of each article icon is a badge icon that shows the number of times an article was donated.  Hovering over the badge icon will reveal a pop-up window of the all the names of the studio members that donated the article. 

 

 

EQUIPPING YOUR PLAYER CHARACTER

When hovering over an item, your character is shown wearing the article in preview mode.  If you like the item, click it and it will replace the appropriate one of 5 boxes it belongs to (example: HEAD, CHEST, BELT, etc.) and the article stays on your character.
 
To remove an article, click & drag it away from the box it was in and it will be replaced by the original article your character was wearing from your Personal Wardrobe.  Mix and match all 5 articles until done.
 
Note: It is possible to mix and match Personal Wardrobe items with Studio Wardrobe articles through this method.

 

Exit the Studio Wardrobe screen by clicking KEEP or CANCEL.

 

Exiting by means of KEEP will reveal your character in the cover as you last dressed them from the Wardrobe.  Exiting via CANCEL will return the character to the look prior to going into Wardrobe.

 

 

 

* * *

 

There are probably other ways to implement this idea and some questions not answered include:

 

1. When a member leaves the studio - where do their maximum 6 donated articles go?  Stay with the player?  Stay with the studio?  Or forfeited from both?

 

2. How does the studio manager curate the wardrobe if at all?

ALSO forgot to mention... when a Head, Chest, Belt, Legs, or Shoes item is placed in your personal SA slots, a BADGE ICON shows the number of times this item was donated.

 

If you are the only person donating the item then the badge icon will read 1 and hovering over the badge icon the tool tip will indicate: "You are sharing this item in the Studio Wardrobe."

 

If another person or person is donating the same item, the tool tip will say, "You are sharing this item in the Studio Wardrobe, along with... " and a list of players currently donating the item is shown.

 

Badge icons are not shown for non-visible articles; like Necklaces, Gadgets, etc.
