Greetings all! This thread is where I will be posting information concerning projects I am currently working on. Due to a UV mapping problem, my Mandilorian KoBra Assult Cannon, is currently on hold, however, I have another project, which is almost ready to release.

It's not as clusmy or random as a blaster, but more of an elegant weapon :D


How's it look? (http://gallery51159.fotopic.net/p9336298.html)

Nice, I wish I could manipulate models that well. Heck I wish I was better at texture recoloring.:rolleyes:

it wasnt manipulated, i modeled a new hilt with the new mdlops, it also does not overwrite existing models

Very nice! Kinda looks Obi-wan inspired.
Is that a little window to view the blade inside of the hilt?
I'll definately have to add it to the collection:)

I use the all generic term of manipulate as well as many other all encompassing words for working within any program wether building from scratch a new model or taking any existing model and making changes to it. The same with any texture maping or any form of program development.(the problem with being an old school net-head/hacker/programmer/geek is using old school terms.)

Heh, W.I.P = Back for good eh Sep? Well i get bored easy and a man has to fill his time somehow :D

Very nice! Kinda looks Obi-wan inspired. Good eye, i liked the bottom of his saber but hated the top, and yes that is what the "window" is for, but for the crystals not the blade

here are two more hilts i am working on i'll let you guess which one is darkside (http://gallery51159.fotopic.net/p9339295.html) ;) Feedback is welcome/needed, also i want to make my new stuff acessable without cheats, so anybody have any suggestion\request for placement\scripting?

ok people, i need some advice, i have another hilt done, but i need to know what everone thinks (http://gallery51159.fotopic.net/p9383222.html) see the top pic is using the games shader, and the bottom is using self lumination, so it will glow in the dark, like svцsh's uzi clips, so what does everyone think, which one looks better?
 90SK
11-23-2004, 11:43 AM

I like the one on the bottom, but thats just my opinion. Either way, they both look great. Keep up the good work!:)

I like the one on the bottom with self illume more, But the The shader Gives the red tube a glass look that is also appealing. IF I had to choose between then I would definately say the one with self illume, it gives the saber a look like its coursing with power and matches the blade color perfectly.
 Seprithro
11-23-2004, 1:58 PM
#23
i like the sound of that! "coursing with power" :D ok folks i got another question, set stats, or make these things upgradable?
 stingerhs
11-23-2004, 4:34 PM
#24
sounds like a personal choice if you ask me. ;)

but since you asked, i think it would be cool if the upgrade crystals granted different properties than the normal ones for the lightsaber. :D

excellent work thus far. :D

11-23-2004, 5:22 PM

Wow Sep... just WOW!!! :D

:drop2:

I say use the bottom one with the glow effect.

I like that evil saber, very visious looking and T7's "coursing with power" works with the handheld technical terror you have constructed too! :D

Greetings all! Time for another update, I have another new hilt model that i need some feedback on. This time i went kinda old school. Older members may remember this (http://gallery51159.fotopic.net/p3957538.html) While it was fairly good I was never happy with the way it turned out, at the time, the was only so much you could do to for a custom saber. So i decided to go back and re-work it a bit ;) This (http://gallery51159.fotopic.net/p9409454.html) is my new version. Like it? also i need some feedback on something else, this will be the third hilt i've made, but i have not release any yet, So my question, should i release them all at once as complete scripted/obtainable items, or release what i have now and cheat to get it?

It depends, you seem to be on a roll. If you know how many you initially plan to make, wait and release them as a pack. If it's a case of constant flowing ideas, maybe do a mini-pack of what you have finished now.

Releasing them asap is what I would do but try to do the scripting for them as cheating for items is kills the joy of finding them.

By the by, I love your latest work and it's revision I might mention it would be totally nifty if in the middle where you have the yellow rod if you can make a version that has the lightsabers glow when it powers on. I don't know how feasible that would be but it would be neat.

ok as requested, i will be releasing a beta version of my weapon pack. none of the weapons in this pack are finished, but all can be used ;) since i refuse to use pcgamemods and since i am "currently" without my own site, anyone wishing to be a "beta tester" please pm me and i will send you the files.

Things to note:

1.currently, some of the weapons will over-ride some of my old ones
2.the sith saber should be full upgradable(but not the color)
3.the texutre of the Kobra Assult Cannon is extremly generic
4.the poly count on the sith saber is a little high and may cause problems on low end machines, on certin stages(star forge) if this is very bad please let me know
5.the cannon is EXTRMELY powerfull and probly needs tone down
6.at the prensent time these are unfinished, so please do-not include these new models in any mods of your own for now
7. the texutre file CM_ManUN is a custom shader made by Svцsh, I was given permission a long time ago to use this, if you wish to use it, ask the owner


anyone who wants to test can, but i ask you give feedback on areas that need improved if you do thanks

Where do you want to place them? I'd gladly do this for you if you want :) Takes a few minutes! Just PM me.

...aas for hosting, I redrafted the "Where can I host my mod" sticky yesterday and added new options ;)

Well, that depends on the new model format, I know nothing about it, but if we can hex edit it, then Sep should be able to remake it, I don't know if he will, but... he might. :D

What I like about the aforementioned lightsaber :
1. Everything...except.. it isn't out yet it seems...

But really, the hilt looks really cool, and the outer glow to the defined thin blade is a really nice effect.


Edit:

Ahhh.. I see!

Dude that is totally cool. It looks much better skinned and textured than before. But I gotta know Is that a custom armor because I don't recognize it. If it is a custom you should try to release it as well man.
