Ive read around and saw that some work was done on this. I have the OJP newest release (ok, as of a few weeks ago), but only see a RGB for the character models.

was this idea scrapped?

It's in there. I'm not sure why you haven't found it. It's just additional stuff in the saber selection menu.

hmmm. I could also be blind.

I'll check teh game and my eyes.

I also noticed that in OJP vehicles the Sith Speeder was absent, but the sap was there ( I know there was one other, im doing this from memory and cant remember the other vehicle name).

thanks for the info.

btw, could the saber color be dictated like altering the color of the clothing (skin, etc) by using the command:

sabercolor 1 255 255 255

where 255 equals some number to produce a RGB color?

Yes, it can. I think that's in the documentation somewhere.
