Model Viewer?Follow

Anyone know if a model viewer exists for this game yet, or if anyone is working on one?

Nope, not the same thing, but I did only find out about that feature recently, and it is definitely cool.

What I'm talking about is a program that can load any of the models in the game (this is external to lotro), and you see them on a solid-colored background. Typically, you can also run through the different animations available on that model as well. This lets you do things like create custom signatures, without having to manually cut the model out of a screenshot.

These programs exist for FFXI and WoW (and probably many others, but I know those two have them). I'm sure someone will make one eventually, or Turbine will come out with it on their own, I'm just wondering if a project is currently underway. =)

ok i see what you mean...i dont think its possible...almost all of the content in lotro (chairs to beasts) are loaded on the server...even your custom settings are saved on thier servers not your HD

Yeah, all of the models, textures, etc are stored locally. They'd have to be, or you couldn't run the game. The server just tells your PC which files to load. I'm sure someone will figure it out, I just was hoping it was already done. =)

Basically, we're less concerned about reading our own characters' data with this program. All we'd need to know is which race, facial structure, etc, we used, and the equipment we're wearing, and the program could render the same thing, without the need for looking at the LotRO servers to discover what we have on now.
