Allow users to customize hair color to their liking

Hmmn, you would have to convert the images to greyscale so the textures still remain when applying the color filter (Not like terrain colors where they just apply a tint to the textures).

I’m all up for more customization, but what would happen to these?

Theoretically the color (or texture) could be the cost, even going as far as having a limitedU color.

What if you just bought a regular black hair, then changed the hue to bright pink? Would extra colours have to be locked behind a paywall, and if so, then wouldn’t they have to apply that paywall to every single roblox item, and configure each one manually?

They could have a “Vintage” tag applied to them. Vintage items would only be tradeable.

Yeah, but that doesn’t stop someone buying a beautiful hair for 95 robux and changing the hue to bright pink.

The limited hairs should be turned into different shapes, and the other non-limited color variants should be refunded.

As far as I understand it, I think the idea is the mesh itself costs and then you pay for a color to be changed/added to it, users can not freely do that unless they would own the color.

But then what would happen to the owners of Fuchsia Fantastique? Would they be compensated?

That’s a limited item, so it would just change shape to be unique as I said.

That still applies though, I could just spent under 100 robux to make my own fuchsia fantastique

Change shape, as in mesh?

Yeah.

I’m 100% positive that people who own that item would not be happy. I owned fuchsia last month before I traded it up, I would be outraged if they changed it.

But you would not own the fuchsia color and thus can not change it to pink; the existing fuchsia item would become a color variation item of a hairstyle mesh. Only if you own the pink color can you apply it to that mesh.

Then that becomes, as I said, a paywall. Roblox would have to manually update all 5000+ items that they’ve made to exclude some colours, colours that are close to it (for example, if they block off pink, i can just get the nearest rgb value to the value blocked, and it’ll still look very similar, probably would blend in)

Unless they regulate what colors you can pick as items instead of giving total freedom to users in RGB values with a blacklist.

Roblox could grant those who owned one of the limited hairs before the change the beautiful hair, same for all other hairs so that they could color that pink and keep their appearance.

If we’re talking about compensation, so that there’s only one beautiful hair mesh, roblox would lose over $402,438.02 alone on a single beautiful hair, to pay back in robux to the community. Surely thats a bad idea?

I don’t think that is the case, some of those who own the limited hair could also already own the default hair and if they didn’t do any compensation then they might not ever end up buying the default in the first place anyway.
