A couple of new pages over at WCM

Unread post by Wain »

We've added a couple of new pages that might be of interest to some of you.

However they both pertain to mounts you *can't* get, so please don't be too disappointed!

The Gallery of Unimplemented Mounts lists all the older mounts that exist in Blizzard's database but for whatever reason never made it live into the game. This is different to mounts that were once available but then retired... these mounts were apparently just forgotten.

The Gallery of Unused Mount Looks lists all the alternative colours for mounts, that have never been available. This list includes ones that have no mount spells or objects in the database at all, and is much larger! It can be fun to look at it and drool over some of them, though :)

While I've listed these pages on the side menu for WCM, I haven't announced them or made a fuss over it. But if you notice any problems, please let us know!

Thanks :)

Awesome being able to browse through all the color variations. Still wish they'd make the pink-purple hippogryph a reality, ever since I spotted it in WMV *sigh*. Are there any plans to shift some of this over to the profile pages, so that we don't have to stare at a mountain of "unimplemented mounts" while updating our collections?

Thanks :) The sorting by family was implemented at the same time. We've been working on that for a couple of weeks. Actually there's sorting by "superfamily" and "subfamily" and model stuff going on in the background, though those category names have been left out so it doesn't get too cluttered. The unused looks etc. galleries had been ready for a while but not announced till we could install the new sorting :)

That was a mistake. We want people to be able to add them to their wishlists, but not to have them clutter the collection edit page. It should be fixed now. Thanks :)

Haha, finding out we can have a wishlist inspired me to actually bring my collection up-to-date. Now the collection page says I have five mounts on my wishlist, but does not show what they are.

OK, try now. I added them back but split them off into a "wish list only" section for upcoming and unimplemented mounts. Hopefully it's OK now :)

Well for one thing, I realized I had been just looking at the edit page, rather than the linked collection page. But now they are showing up on both pages, so it's all good! :)

Working on an update for the collection edit page too :) Basically it would be good to see mount images rather than those spell icons, which are sometimes ambiguous. Hopefully it'll be released soon, when we're happy with the formatting :)

You could maybe add a comment to the White Riding Yak explaining that the other yaks in game will temporarily turn white if you take them through the Yak Wash in Kun-Lai. That may give some solace to people that want that colour. :)
