A little more Weapon Customization

So currently you can make a weapon using different racial styles to change its look, and it also changes depending on the material of the ingots used to make the weapon (although I'm sure dwarven and above have the same model). So when you reach dwarven quality gear your weapons will look the same for essentially the rest of the game so far, if you craft them. Instead of asking to make new weapon models for each quality level (could be done eventually in the future I guess) I was thinking about being able to craft higher quality weapons with previous models.

So basically iron weapons will have one model per racial style available to them, but steel can have the same weapon model iron has and also the default steel look. orichalcum can have its default model, along with the previous steel and iron models as well. dwarven would have its own, along with the previous three.

So with this theres still a sense of progression when you use higher quality materials as theres more available models to choose from. Also, say you like the look of the ancient elf orichalcum sword compared to its dwarven model and above, you would still be able to make it have the orichalcum model at higher material levels if thats the model you prefer, although the new model is available to make as well.

Some of you may think that having two to four weapon models that could share the same name could be confusing to the code (maybe it is, i'm not 100% sure), but I think it could work since already we have weapons the share the same name and model but have a different value; think weapons you loot from npc's compared to looting from weapon racks and containers.

Not a bad idea, but no one but you is ever going to see the weapon you created unless it's on your back in a bank and you are just standing around hoping people will look at it, or you place it in a display case in your house which is a loooooooong way from happening.

Well, I think the point of making weapons the way you want them to look is mostly what you want it to look like, not so much what other people would think of them, thats how I think of it anyways.
