I've got a while to go with the architecture, so it's not urgent. I'll drop them a line later on during development. How is the AOTCTC coming along anyway?...  [Read More]

darthVADER, in your Sig, it shows you're the AOTCTC chief mapper - do you think it'd be okay to use some of the models your crew have created for use in this project?...  [Read More]

I'm glad you like. You've got to love the q3map_sunExt parameter:) It was originally going to be set on either Nar Shadaa or Coruscant, with Jaden chasing a rogue Jedi from the depths of the city to a final rooftop duel. The only problem is Nar Sh...  [Read More]

Hi all, This is the 1st time i've posted any shots of work i'm doing at the moment, so go easy on me. Following getting a copy of the Clone Wars Micro series, I have decided to set the map on Muunilinst. It will eventually end up being single pla...  [Read More]

The JA community is dwindling, as is the Q3 engined game community in general. Doom III has just been release with a spanking new engine and Half-Life 2 is round the corner with the new Source technology. Both these engines come with plenty of Bell...  [Read More]

One of the biggest sources of inspiration I found was Ralph McQuarrie's concept art. If you own the old Star Wars Multimedia CD-ROM "Behind the Magic" then you'll find concept art for the entire original trilogy, schematics for all the sh...  [Read More]

If your music is your own creation (i.e. not from any other lucasarts games or cd's) then you should be fine. And if it was a free download anyway and you're not making money off it, then I don't see the problem. Saying that though, i'm not a lawye...  [Read More]

Just keep it quiet and don't make a big deal about it. Also, if you make a really good job of the dynamic music, most people wouldn't notice that it's something you've added - they would probably think it had already been included in game. Don't...  [Read More]

Lucasfilm and Lucasarts are VERY, VERY protective of their Star Wars license. Lucasarts would have had to go through a ton of legality to get the tracks they wanted and so I wouldn't really chance it. If you are going to though, make sure there is a...  [Read More]

Don't get my panties in a twist? I'm not the one going off on one. All I asked was a simple question - I don't understand why only Anakin and not Obi-Wan? I'm not having a go at GL or anything and reading all the other changes, I think they'd be...  [Read More]

If they replaced Sebastian Shaw with Haydn Christensen, why didn't they replace Alec Guinness with Ewan Macgregor? If they are going to make gimmicky changes, they should at least be consistent - that's my only problem. The rest of the changes are p...  [Read More]

it doesn't really matter whether KOTOR is canon or not - it's set 4000 years before the films, it doesn't contradict anything in the Tales of the Jedi comic books and it is highly unlikely that George Lucas will do anything set in this era. It doesn...  [Read More]
