Luclin models are allowed right now because they're a legacy feature but iirc something is being done to eliminate them soon and that could result in punishment if you bypass them. Much like external /loc maps are frowned upon. Ingame maps were removed for a reason.

UI XML Files and textures contained within the uifiles folder (anything inside the uifiles folder that is) is fair game, aside from specific approved mods by the server staff. Telin's sky changes are awaiting approval iirc. He's an example of a saint following the rules.

Side note I don't see anything enforcing this yet, but sound asset files and such (removing thunderbooms, bag opening sounds) are likely off limits, though a GM can confirm that, not me.
Completely understandable. I always did like the idea of trying to upscale all the textures (more or less what Chebby was doing) but I guess I shouldn't mess around with it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

There have certainly been threads about changing sounds, am curious as to what the verdict on that would be!
