How Outfitted Mules could look like

[data2008]

If you look at the original cover, a mule could really be equipped with anything:



In-game, originally the mule simply changed its color to show it has been equipped.

In Planet M.U.L.E. we attach a package on his back, containing some sort of equippment to be installed on the plots.

What is your visualization of an equipped M.U.L.E.?

I think the package should also have items hanging out/off of it to further represent what its for, really just for looks.

Oh, and maybe it could glow

I like the current art for the Mules, I can't imagine how they could be improved.

[MrBrown]

I really like the whole design and graphics of planet mule, especially the mule himself.
I cannot think of any better way to make modern versions of the old 8-bit sprites.
They look really nice, but old MULE players can still easily identify each single species.

While the boxes are good, they could be more indicative of what they are; wheat on the food one, or things like that.

[Cyclone]

the graphics are perfect

maybe it can be made as skinnable, or is everything unofficially skinnable already?  I would definitely make a new design :>

[Chuckie Chuck]

Yes, everything is "unofficially" skinable, even the parts that were not intended to be skinable in the skins folder.  Just a matter of editing images and even sound files in the data.jar file.
