i thougth it would be cool that every body that would like to give out any ideas for modelers, to look at everyone elses ideas. maybe people are stumped on really making an awsome model but cant just think of one. i would like to also add that these might be good for more up-comming games such as JK3. well here goes i'll start it off.

anyone ever see that movie from the 80's called "big trouble in little china"? the guy that throws out electricity would make a cool jk2 model. if you dont know then the guy kinda looks like raiden from mortal kombat.
hey @ nookie do a search on samurai spawn. those toys are way cool. scorpion assassin and jackal assassin are the cool ones. they would make great if not fantastic models.

My friend wants one of the long neck cloning guys from AotC.
Someone else requested Hotsuma(The main character of Shinobi)
I would also like to see Hotsuma
Or any of the Oboro Clan ninjas.
Hotsuma or Moritsune mostly.

Yes, I'd really like to see a Kaminoan model appear somewhere, they're just such a mysterious race. And a model of the Ewok which befriends Leia WOULD be awesome... I hope someone makes one of these... :D :ewok:

I've been messing around in max and made something that looks like a Kaminoan, but that would require a new skeleton for JK2.

I've found reference pics but not enough to have all the details i need, especially the backside.

Here's a nice overview of the front of the Kaminoans that are shown in Episode two. Here are some following images for anyone trying.

wicket!
I have a friend who has a friend who is wiccan, so when thinking of his name, all I could get was wiccan. . . I have a couple of tapes from the Ewoks miniseries type cartoon thing. At least I don't think it was a full series.
I vaguely remember seeing a live action movie or two about them when I was younger. . .

yeah lol i remember that movie. it was about a alliance family or something crash landing on a planet. and they as well as the ewoks battle huge spiders as well as other monsters. a giant monster.

Cant you make something what has four legs
 Psyk0Sith
02-04-2003, 2:30 PM

The JK2 skeleton has a normal human being structure...a custom skeleton wouldnt even work...the extra legs wouldnt have any animations.

The only way it could work would be to weight the extra legs to the same bones or opposite bones so they dont move in the same manner...even then some tearing would occur.

Maybe when a custom skeleton is created and we are finally able to modify the GLA file, we'll see freaky creatures, until then, i doubt it's possible.

yeah too bad you can only make 2 legged characters, but oh well thats just the way things go i guess.

what about pre- existing models from quake 3? any of you modelers out there that have made quake 3 models? i had mentioned this before, and i got mixed answers, some positive and some negitive. and i think if i remember correctly, quake 3 and jedi outcast use the same engine right?
 Psyk0Sith
02-14-2003, 1:13 AM
#45
Yes, they both use the same engine, there are small differences.

Basically you take the Quake 3 model, segment it, create the caps and attach it to the skeleton. The model and uvw mapping are already done. You'd also have to fit the mesh around the skeleton. Create fingers for the hands if you want details.

The mesh could even be "improved"...if im correct, Q3 models have around 1000 polys, and JK2 around 3000 (a bit more for some).

I created Q3 models when i was learning low poly tools...so it doesnt look too good :o.

I've started a Dexter head, i've made it moderately detailed and the polycount is 1000+ for the head alone!. So i doubt he will end up in JK2...unless i can optimize it well enough.

I thought he would be a fun character to make, even if not for JK2.
