At 1:17 of this Beth video highlighting animation, the person on the left appears to be wearing a cape. This gives me hope for cloaks, regardless of the absence of cloth physics.

Probably a static piece of the armor mesh. Certainly not a proper "Cloak" equipment slot.

It looks like one of the Dark Brotherhood outfits....

yep, that pretty much looks like a cape.. though, capes are nothing compared to cloaks

COULD IT BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

:shocking:

If you mean no cloth physics, then you would be correct.

Morrowind did have one piece of equipment with a cape too. The Expensive shirt from Tribunal if I remember correctly. That's what I'm expecting (At best). Not saying it couldn't be a lot better, but sometimes these things get blown out of proportion.

I was planning on using the cloth map as a cape, but since its not really cloth...

I don't care if they don't have physics. I'll take whatever they can give. I agree that they're nothing compared to cloaks, but this gives me a sliver of hope.

I'm not too bothered about capes, but having them would make some armour look better.

At 1.03 where that same character is creeping towards the you, you can see the extra fabric of the cape draqed over his shoulders.

What kind of a vid was that?
Never seen it.

Man, this game is going to be so brutal, love the sheer ruthlessness of it.

It might come with the hood, I wonder if you can customize it.

But it would be weird to have a faction called the Stormcloaks without any cloaks in the game.

Cloaks are not in. I know this for a fact. But cloaks that stick to the armor is fully possible, I don't know specifically if that's in. But no separate cloaks (it's a physics issue).

It's the new video to go along with the newest developer diary.

Right. I'm fairly certain it's been confirmed that the game will NOT feature cloth physics. As others have said, if cloaks and other capes are in, they will be static. Good enough for me.

I'd rather have my hopes up for cloaks rather than capes.

But capes are nice too.

doesn't have to be static though, could be simply animated. The game does feature a certain number of animations, in theory it's not entirely impossible simply pre-animated cloaks using physics and then just importing them as regular animations

wow the magic in the video made me ...........

exited....... lets leave it at that :spotted owl:

My fingers are crossed...

Omg, it's Darth Revan

» Tue May 08, 2012 12:58 am

Just a piece that is apart of the Armor, it is static, probably with a slight animation to it, to keep it from looking idiotic.

Don't get your hopes up though ^^ I just said it was possible, it's very unlikely
