transmog/wardrobe/UI add on, recently posted a fun little trick that allows you to use two macros to see what your character would look like if their hair did not vanish when they donned a hat.
Trivial, you say? No sir! I have long bemoaned the amazing collection of chapeaux that I cannot wear due to the automatic hair cut. I even went so far as to ask a developer about it one BlizzCon - perhaps you were there? Perhaps you saw the video? "When," I asked, "would I be able to wear a hat without getting a haircut?" The response to my plea was was pretty much "...um, never." It was explained that doing this seemingly simple task would require touching every hat asset in the game - and there are a lot of hats. The workload would make this a task worthy of its own expansion. A Hat expansion. I resigned myself to pretty much never wearing a hat.
And then Peter Yu came along and I had to give it a try. Hope was rekindled!
Here is how you do it:
Open the Dressing Room - Ctrl+click on an item in your wardrobe
Use Macro #1:
/script local m=DressUpFrame.ModelScene;local a1,a2=m:GetPlayerActor(),m:CreateActor();a2:SetModelByUnit("player", true, true);local x,y,z=a1:IsUsingCenterForOrigin();a2:SetUseCenterForOrigin(x,y,z);TEMP_ACTORS={a1,a2};
Use Macro #2:
/script TEMP_ACTORS:SetScale(TEMP_ACTORS:GetScale());for _, a in pairs(TEMP_ACTORS) do a:SetPosition(0, 0, 0);a:SetAnimation(618, 0, 1, 0);a:SetYaw(-1.57);a:UndressSlot(16);a:UndressSlot(17);end
Now just Ctrl+click on items in your wardrobe to see how they look without removing your hair
As you can see, I have lovely flowing locks. It upsets me when I have hats - and let's face it, it's most of my hats - that give me a short back and sides. Now I look very dapper in a nice trim cut, but it's not who I am. I gotta let the hair flow, so I was most excited by this idea and gave it a whirl.
Before and After....Looking Good
Nope, nope, nope....
There are some that are amazing! ...and some that are...well...amazing? Ironically, the big issue is clipping. The idea certainly works better on a super low profile cut. Love the braid!
Before and After....
But for anything with vertical substance? Er, no.
Well...actually...Yes! Very Yes!
The upshot: this is a super fun little trick and a gas to play about with, but it also really demonstrates exactly why making this change will be such a big job. Every hat would have to be adjusted for every hairstyle for every race. And that, my friends, is no small task.
I'm still eagerly awaiting the Hat Expansion.
