Not attemtping to thread hijack here...(gets out crowbar) but if you're really desperate for voice actors and DAK isn't avaliable I know quite a few good voice actors due to my SP mapping, I could give them all your email and tell them if they are interested they should email you some samples or soemthing if you want, keen?

DAK has already done most of the voices. There's no way someone's going to replace him after all the work he's done. Not when it's that good.

That's not what Kengo meant, he was talking about the Jedi Oucast movies. Speaking of which, DAK (or Antizac as he's been calling himself here) has been monitoring this thread, so if he's interested I'm sure he'll say so.

AK, if you're still watching this thread, I really would not object at all if PC was released just with subtitles...it looks too amazing for a few voice actors to cancel the whole project, there was too much good work put into this. And hey, if your original voice actors aren't delivering...time to find substitutes, eh?

Any way you do this I bet this will be one of the most-played JO levels for a while.

I don't want to bug you AK but it would be a shame for this project to go down the crapper. I followed your work for quite some time as I played JK and all your stuff and also I edited myself in TPMTC for MotS and now I am working in AOTCTC fo JO .Anyway to get to the point I just want to know the whats the word on your project here? Just so you can keep fans happy.

Don't bitch at Anthony, you should be giving me schitt for not finishing the voices he needs...

Guys guys get a life and do something else for a change rather than camping in the forums and posting pointless posts that just upset people and cause problems. Don't complain he will finish it when he does. I can't wait to try it out myself but for now lets wait patiently and keep things cool, we wouldn't want this to turn into another forum thread like WIP: Tercero-Anakin Model. LOL lets keep it cool.

I believe KaiaSowapit is releasing his new Yoda (http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=95241) soon, which includes facial bones.

I've seen Toonces around, but he's so busy with real life affairs he hasn't spent much time here.

I dont think the new Yoda will be comming out for awhile. I work with him at AOTCTC and I talked to him recently and he still has quite a bit to go yet.

Why not release what is completed, then perhaps if you feel the need to later, given the resources you originally wanted, make a "special edition" version.

From what I gather, it's all aesthetic concerns right now, don't let sad circumstances concerning aesthetics kill this project!

Please, for the love of god, this map has to be released! It would be the first time in three months that I would fire up JK2!

I've decided I'm not going to release this level. Simply because I am not happy with the quality of it. There are too many unrecoverable technical problems with it and I'm not willing to release something like that. I've also lost a lot of interest in the game as well. However, maybe I'll start working on something new when JA comes out.

I really feel for you Ant, I've come close to projects dying on me a few times, but nothing like this. Just nearly losing a map caused a near full day of deep depression, this is something else - as dissapointed as everyone is that this level won't be coming out, I'm sure you must be feeling a lot worse, you put in a lot of time and effort, and I'm sure everyone will appreciate that after the dissapointment wears of a little. I'd like to offer to try to finish this off for you, for what its worth, although I don't really think I'm good enough to have a right to offer...I thought I would all the same, even thought I'm sure you'll want to lay it to rest. Anyway, I totally respect your judgement on this as I think everyone else should, as far as I'm concerned you're the man when it comes to SP map editing and quite simply the person most qualified in the whole community to make the decision!

As much as it sucks, I have to agree with AK. I think that he doesn't want to put something half-assed out for the public, and that's his right to do as the creator.

If it's ever done one day, that'd be great. But in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't really matter that much.

If all that was left was a few lines for Mace and a Yoda model with a face, why not just live with a Yoda that can't move its mouth (really, no one would complain), and fudge the Mace dialogue, or cut it, or whatever? Really, that's all I heard was left, and that's no reason not to trash such great work just like that...

What exactly are these "unrecoverable technical problems"? I'm sure whatever it is can't be that bad for the level and nobody wants to see all this hard work go to waste. Even if you don't think it's good enough to release, it'll still probably be awesome.
Releasing a great level with some problems is a lot better than letting all that time and effort go down the drain and not releasing it at all.

Please, seriously reconsider this AK.

KaiaSowapit needs help with his yoda in order to finish it. I talked to him and he told me he wants to finish it but cant find anyone to help him. I forggot exactly what he needs but everyone at AOTCTC is to busy or cant help. and as far as voices so what who cares about them.

I don't look at this as a waste at all. I've learnt an awful lot about JO mapping making this level.

I'm not willing to release this level without the voices either, that will make it unfinished. I'm not interested in releasing unfinished projects.

Some of the testers with the very best machines suffered considerably with the technical framerate drops. It would be unwise for me to release this level when even the very best computers can't enjoy this level to the potential of which I designed it. The bottom line is that some areas were built quite sloppily, I didn't fully understand caulking and area portals and everything else so I simply didn't implement them. I've tried adding all that stuff in to make a difference and it makes a minute one at best.

I don't expect all of you to understand my attitude in this. Bottom line is I've been making SP levels for years now and it's inexcusable of me to release anything of any low standard, technically or from a design point of view.

Maybe I will work on a smaller scale project as a filler for when JA comes out.
