No, that was just a bit of code to help out psynex. I might use that, if I have time.

I did however talk Toonces into helping me out with getting her in game.

Didn't mean to confuse the others in this thread. Thank you Kman for posting that info there for me. I did end up coming across a small tut on that by pure coincidence about an hour after I posted that question. Your approach is sliiiiiiiightly different so I'll have to experiment. Thanks again.

The model is looking great. I'm a fan of Metriod but can't buy it when Prime comes out, simply because I have been converted to the side of the Xbox, but yeah, model looks great. Can't wait till it's out.

Im not a fan of game cube..
Or nintendo as a whole for that matter..
I'm not buying a gamecube just for one game
(which would be metroid prime XD)

IMHO MEtroid and Zelda are the only on-going reasons nintendo still makes any money.. The majority of their other games can be bought on other systems or are just plain childish..

Sorry a little off topic on my part there Kman.

Another update as the deadline approaches:
Toonces has gotten a working version of her in-game, and I have gotten the shaders all set up. I just need to finish the skins, get the sounds in there, and set up the bots, and she'll be out the door (unless I forgot about something).

Thanks for the update.

Nintendo makes just as much as the rest of the companies. Though Metroid and Zelda are some of their bigger sellers. One thing is also Nintendo bought out the rights for the next 5 Resident Evil games from Capcom I think. Anyways we should get back on topic.

Actually, you should have stayed on topic, and not replied to his out of topic comment. If you want to talk about Nintendo start a thread in the General forums, or better yet, browse through the ign forums and if you think what they are all talking about is rational, and has any sort of semblance to being serious, by all means commit yourself to a sanitarium.

That was pretty incoherent. I don't understand at all what you were trying to say.

KMan, are you going to have that slashing-type sound when she jumps? Is that even a possibility? I'm not sure which events have sound, so...

Also, try emptying your sent messages, and any of your other boxes you may have.

The sounds aren't going to have much in the way of a voice talking, more like sounds and fx.

What about the taunt?
Wouldn't it sound a bit wonky if it was just a sound effect?
There must be somethin you could use for the taunt.

The shoulder deformations I'm getting now arn't pretty, better than the other day, but still a little strange. I'm going to keep tweaking though. It's a very sweet model folks, all you Metroid nuts out there are really going to love it :D

It will be released the week of November 18th, 2002. Is that good enough? Heh.

On a side note, (I can actually talk about this, now) Jedi Outcast for the XBox and Gamecube will be featuring extra MP models that can be unlocked. One of them is going to be Count Dooku/Darth Tyrannus, which I had a great time working on. Just wanted to 'pimp' that out as well. There are some other good community models that are going to be in there as well.

heh, I'm actually going to put a little news announcement on JKII.net the day the game comes out. In addition to KMan, there is work from many others like Arco, spacemonkey, sithlord-II, and even myself :D There are a few more people as well

Anyway, I gotta get back to rigging so you can get out this great model :)

I take it Yoda won't be included? also it's a pity they'll miss out on Anakin, Mace, Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon as well.

Well... I'm AT work right now. But I wouldn't call it hard work. Heh. Don't worry though, as soon as she's done, she's going straight up for download.

Stealth Armour

Here is one of the color variants. Depending on how long it takes to get her done, I may get around to doing some others, but no promises.
