You want the awesome custom backpacks/quivers/Bazookas/whatever, but still want to wear that nice +1 cloak? Well, this will solve your problem, you can have both, YES, you CAN have both!
Just download the file I posted here, and paste it in the override folder.
They'll look like this:

yay for cool customization + use of the cloaks.
Plz to be posting file
Just did
It should be working now.
Alright, it should be working now.
<3
Thanks!
Awesome work, Raposa!
sexy!
That is pretty awesome. Is there a way to just turn off your cloak without disabling the benefit you get from the cloak. For example, the armors that have that badass shoulder graphic, in order to display it you can't be wearing a cloak.

There is. I'll see if I can work it, but, I personaly don't like that, because cloaks have IC influence, some of them have insignias, and others are part of uniform, as the stygians. I'll see if I can have it posted here, anyhow. And of course, Your cloak won't be invisible, it is only you or whoever has the override that won't see it.
Thanks, you all!

I think there is yes. Cammi has already done that. I personaly don't like that, for two reasons. First, you'll never know who is seeing your cloak and who is not. Second, IMO, cloaks play a great role on IC customization, sometimes even used as uniforms, and some others have insignias. What if someone makes a faction called 'The Orange Hoods' (Silly, I know), and their uniform is an orange cloak. Well. This is my opinion. The link follows anyhow, it is on the 'Cloak Reverter' part, of course.

This is ridiculous. You don't wear scabbards and backpacks over your cloak, that makes the cloak useless. It gets trapped beneath the things and you can't wrap it around yourself anymore, which is what it's for in the first place.
Scabbards are worn under the cloak, and backpacks combined with cloaks are an anachronism anyway.
That's my daily dose of history-nazi'ing done, guys.
Rule of Cool, Porkolt. Rule of Cool.

Cloaks in general are an anachronism. So are swords worn anywhere.
This is a fantasy game. It's not supposed to be modern.
And, honestly, I don't know where else you -would- put a cloak but under your backpack. Certainly not over it because then it would make taking the backpack off and leave the cloak suspended away from your body, thus doing nothing.

Don't worry, the override is specially made not to let it get trapped beneath the things, and you will still be able to wrap it around yourself! Try and see it for yourself, if it does not work, you may have your money returned!

Because the cloak attaches around your neck, and the backpack attaches around your shoulders, taking off either of the two is possible with the cloak on top.
However, the cloak gets trapped if the backpack is put on afterwards. As well, it won't be possible to get the cloak out from under the backpack, because it's trapped their by the straps, thus negating the reason you wear cloaks - to protect you from the elements.
It's got nothing to do with 'modern' either. I used the term anachronism because in the days that cloaks were commonplace, backpacks were not commonplace at all, and vice versa.

Well done, Gebruikers Naam, an arguement of a thousand words can't beat that image! XD

We are not playing a historically accurate game, cause well, it is a game, and therefore has no basis in reality. Glad you get to wear cool cloaks irl without strange stares though, sounds fun!
Thanks for this file, Raposa! Red looks so much cooler with the back and the cloak!

What's ridiculous is how much pedantry you managed to fit in a post in response to a community member who's trying to improve our server.
