idk.... but where are we gonna get the meshes? because that wouldnt work!
I think I just found a mando that can be put into this mod. I'll get back to you guys on this. Just letting you know.
EDIT: Ok, I found a mando for Unreal Tournament 2004, which (if I remeber correctly) uses the same Unreal engine as SWRC.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this wouldn't be porting, because that is a mod, and not a standard game resource.
ok cool ill try to get it to work
EDIT: nope its not the right format
i need a mesh in a .psk format
Bummer. Hey, I'm trying to add in a new trooper squaddie (the kind that crashes the game). I'm using a different technique though, so I'll tell you how it went.
Edit: Yegh, didn't work. I'll try my plan B then. Will update with results.
Edit 2: ... No luck with Plan B... Plan C now... Will update...
Edit 3: Didn't work. Plan D now... update soon...
Ok, I'm momentarily abandoning plan D in favor of checking up on weather or not the script, or the Pawn is causing the crash...
Edit: Ok, so the shiney boy was causing the crash. I'm now reverting back to Plan A, but with a different Pawn.
how many plans do you have??? lol
At least 11. ^_^ Ok... Plan A WORKED! Wayii! Kandosii!
SO YOU CAN DOOR BREACH?? TELL!!!TELL!!!!:D
Yup! :D I have a fully animated, extra squad mate! All you have to do as use a clone trooper instead of a clone commando. Since Clone Troopers can't preform squad commands, there's no crash. You can edit the CT mesh into the RC mesh and you can even have your very own commando follower. Keep in mind that this means no bacta, however he'll still follow you, and you can revive him. ^_^ Also, on levels where you don't have a full squad (Raz Prosocuter/First few geonosis levels) you can use a standard squaddie with squad commands. ^_^ Yayz! :p
but he cant do anything? he cant demo or hack? but he can defend and form up?
edit:this is what i originally did, but since he didnt folow commands, i thought it didnt work....
can you try to make this for the clone trooper mod too?? how many extra squadies can u have??
as many as you like i think.....
then i would like to have ca.20 :D that would be COOL!
O_O that would take...forever (and a fps killer/lag creator)
this looks cool if it ever gets done and just to clear things up the sholder thing is called a pauldren and the belt/skirt is called a Kama
but will it just get some new skins an meches? or do you guys make new levels too??
we are trying te eventully make some new maps too, so this could take some time
I See The Mod Is Going Well? How Long Do You Figure It Will Take Until It Is Finished?
In my experience (having created my own video-games using the Beyond Virtual game engine), development takes anywhere from three weeks (provided you and an entire team have some ready-made models, and an unlimited amount of time from sun-up to sun-down) to 2 years +. It all depends on the level of work that you put into your game. If you follow the E.A. style, you can do it in one day (pirate some models from turbo-squid, and mush some levels out). Personally, I tend to churn out levels (characters, items, etc.) in about 16 hours (that's total time spent on the level. 16 hours for me generally translates into about 3-6 days).
I Can't Wait For It :D. If LA Found This On The Internet, It Would Be A 70% Chance They Would Make A Release Day For A Game :D.
What's the storyline for this thing?
basiclly so far, its arc troopers that have similar objectives of the commandos but we're planing on new missions,levels,etc.

So essentially, version 1 is just RC with ARCs instead, and version 2+ will be an all new thing?
Some can be easy to genericize, like the Acclamator Star Destroyer - instead of it being the Prosecutor, it could be the Naboo or Insurmountable...
Just a heads up after noticing the discussion in your social group -
It's doubtful that you'll be able to use the soundtracks from the Star Wars Trilogies in your mod, as that's infringing copyright law. Therefore, any mod released that contains the soundtrack from any copyrighted source would be illegal.
would modifying a song like a remix be illegal?
I'm not 100% on my copyright law, but I think yes, modifying a song would also be illegal.
There's nothing stopping you from adding the soundtrack for your own personal use, but adding it into a mod and then distributing it is definitely illegal.
would modifying a song like a remix be illegal?
I think it depends how how much/far its remixed. Something like a montage may not necessarily pass the test.

Are you sure Astor? 'Cause there's a bunch of mods that use Star Wars Music. To name a few - AEM over at EAW Files, Star Destroyer II Map over at JK Files...

I'm pretty sure, yes. And if those mods are using the Star Wars soundtrack, then they're infringing the copyright.
Now, I know what you're thinking - LucasFilm/Arts hasn't had those mods removed, so they obviously don't mind. What's more likely is that they don't know they even exist.
I'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade here, but I think it's important that you know that the inclusion of the soundtrack is on shaky legal ground at best.
What if they use Vode An? Its in RC so it should be legal right?

Of course - it's one of the game's original assets - using the soundtrack from the game itself is fine, as far as I know.

You're not "Raining on our Parade." I personally, am really glad that you brought this up, and being a composer I sympathize with the copyright issues. We really should make sure it's legal for us to use the Soundtrack Music/Remixes before we put them in. I'll to some research into this, as I have a neighbor who worked as a head-hunter for ILM. He should know.
EDIT: Ok, we now have official Main/loading screens. Comments?

Man! I was working on some stuff I was hoping to contribute, but that makes my stuff look like crap:p
Wow this stuff looks great especialy the new battle droid makes me wish I has RC for PC
Your droid commando looks fantastic are they going to be harder to kill?
probably, we may even add a shield on it ( a small one)
Here are some new enemies which you will be facing in our mod:

They are (from left to right):
B3 Ultra Battle Droid, B2 Cortosis Battle Droid, Battle Droid (no rust), Battle Droid Commander, OOM Security Droid, OOM Droid Pilot/Tech
Thanks. We still have the spider droids though. Any thoughs on other droid enemies?
Well, there's a HailFire droid in-game already... but unless we figure out how to export/import models, I'm afraid we won't be able to do those. However, you can rest assured knowing that I will try my hardest to figure out how to do that.
There's a Hailfire droid in the game! Where is it? Also will someone be able to reskin the DC-15s side arm blaster to look like the commando pistol used by Arcs and make it a new weapon?

Geonosis, I think...
Where exactly on Geonosis is it?

If I remember correctly, I think there's two spider droids on Geo... One of them is outside the entrance to the battle droid factory (I think, it may be the entrance to one of the Seperatist Core Ships).
