Does anybody know if you will be able to add more models to JK3? Just for the MP player selection. In JK2 there are only a limited number of models/icons shown in the selection menu. If you have more models you have to use the console. This is not re...  [Read More]

Since I've read every Star Wars book out there I grew to love the Solo kids. Especially Anakin was always my favourite. But now that I've seen your skins... it's hard to decide which one is the best. Really great work, I'm glad you painted them. Kee...  [Read More]

I fixed the hair and some bug with the read teamskin, so I hope now it is the final version. The filename is the same, but at my website it is now the new skin....  [Read More]

You're right with the hair. It looks different on a monitor with other brightness and contrast settings, and that's what I had when I made this skin. Now I'm back home and have MY monitor, and I agree, the hair needs some tweaking. I will edit that a...  [Read More]

I've finished my skin of the young Palpatine from the Dark Empire comics. It's is based on the Ep1 Obi-Wan model by Toonces and team, but I think it is nearly perfect as the Emperor's clone. http://www.uwg-oer-erkenschwick.de/SWJK2/bilder/young_empe...  [Read More]

I like your MOD. But I prefer the green shield energy, the blue is too dark. And Star Wars games have always the colors red and green, it was in X-Wing, Tie-Fighter, Rebellion.... And is it possible to make the new "invisble duel" option...  [Read More]
Ok, I did it like you said, I must say it looks really good now. What do all you others think? Here's my Robed_Icon. http://www.uwg-oer-erkenschwick.de/SWJK2/bilder/young_emperor.jpg...  [Read More]
Well, it's impossible to darken just the parts under his chin, because of the model. If you make some parts dark you get some form like moons and triangles. So I think I'm gonna keep it the way it is. I redid the hairpart, not as shiny as you did, b...  [Read More]
Originally posted by boinga1 ...and just for the record, despite what comics show, I really don't think Palpatine :lightning would be a blonde. Could be, but remember, that's just a clone with palpatines spirit. Maybe it isn't a clone of himself, o...  [Read More]
Ok, the hair is the most tricky part, and I'm not pleased with it until you are. ;) So I'm still tweaking it, and I hope I will get some real not too yellow blonde hair. Here's my next try, opinions please :) http://home.t-online.de/home/0236859584...  [Read More]
I think now I got it. But since you are more experienced with this I would like to hear your opinion. And if there is something not right you can tell me, even if it's the thousondth time. :) I want to make this hair perfect. :p http://home.t-onlin...  [Read More]

Originally posted by Grafox Garik, pppplleeeeeease add some shading to his hair, it looks so monochromatic as it is now. Otherwise, superb skin. Hm, you could be right. I've made it on another computer, but now that I'm home again I see that my m...  [Read More]
Naah, noone would kill you. At least I don't think so :p The skin is ready for download, I posted a link and a new thread in the skinning forum, but since noone seems to look there I thought I post it here as well. http://www.lucasforums.com/showt...  [Read More]

To everyone who worked on this great model: I've written this into the forum some time ago. I wanted to make a Young emperor clone (the one from Dark Empire) skin for your Ep1 Obi-Wan model. Now I have finished some parts, and I want to know if I am...  [Read More]

Originally posted by Luuke well, it's just a wild guess, but model_red2.skin might not work because it has 9 letters, a lot of games... for example "elite force" only support names with 8 or less letters. maybe that's not the reason... b...  [Read More]

This was the same in JO, and this is nothing that can be changed, even if you had the SDK. This is hardcoded in the Q3 Engine, so we have to live with it and choose the characters, that are not shown, by consel or write a script....  [Read More]
