Razor, Do you actually properly read anything I post? I said that's what you might accuse me of!! And are you saying that when Vader threw his saber at Luke, he was actually attempting a saber throw, but it went wrong or something? he didn't pull i...  [Read More]

Alesh, I'm not trying to be an arse - honestly I'm not - but you are totally missing my point... I didn't suggest the phantom saber thing because I thought it was a great gameplay idea. I NEVER want to see that - in my game, in MotF, or in any othe...  [Read More]

Razor, I know Alesh and Littleman have valid points about the nature of the force. As do you... But only Kray has given me any credit for the point I'M trying to make - which is that analysing the inner workings of the force doesn't nessesarily hel...  [Read More]

A saber hilt is not heavy!! I'd would rate it at - let's say - Apple-type weight!! Pick up a banana, hold it like a lightsaber hilt and wave it. How complicated was that? Even monkey's can manage it... Bah - I'm giving up. Kray may disagree with me...  [Read More]

Anakin managed to smoothly pass whatever fruit that was to Padme in a nice, clean controlled way in AotC. He didn't just launch it at her full-force! (I don't think flinging something full-pelt at the face of your would-be lover is considered too ro...  [Read More]

Weheey! Feeling the love...! ;) Yes Razor, the LMS thing was one of the main things that stood in the way of the merge - I agree. But it wasn't the only thing. If LMS turn out to be literally the ONLY thing we had an option for, I did say I could ha...  [Read More]

Kray, I get what your saying man. Truly - I do. But look up at the title of this thread. It's 'Closer to the films if...' That's what I've been talking about. If your aim is to be authentic to the movies, that's one objective. It your aim is to s...  [Read More]

*hangover!* Sorry guys, got a bit over-excited there! Another thing to put in my list of things not to do when drunk: 'Don't post on public forums!'. That's gone in right below abseiling and above carpentry! Anyway, I wasn't trying to dis anybody...  [Read More]

OK, I'll let you off...!! I was going to send him a PM or something rather than reply in the thread - cos I thought that would be pretty bad form to link to my mod from your forums - but then when I saw that...! :eek: Sorry about that. Take it dow...  [Read More]

*sob* ...I'm not angry. Yoda told me that anger leads to the dark side (or is it hate - I can't remember)... *sob* On a serious note, I think this is a case of over-analysing something to the point where you've forgotten what the point was in the...  [Read More]

I was just trying to make a point about defining what movie realism is, and now somehow we've moved on to the meta-physics of the force!! Your blank refusal to recognise I have any kind of valid point is driving me mad!! Mad I tell you! You know, I...  [Read More]

More effective - undoubedly. Easier - probably. But safer?! Being personally in the middle of a firefight, or being hidden on the sidelines...?!! Anyway, this is getting off topic! Back to movie realism!! :)...  [Read More]

Depends who's doing the smacking, and who's being smacked! Yoda could lift an X-wing! I doubt some random joe trying to knock a saber under HIS control is gonna get very far. I would compare that to a flea trying to move my hand by head-butting it.....  [Read More]

You can - the changes will only show on your machine though. (I assume your not bothered by that...) Step 1: Extract the Mandalorian.pk3 to a temporary directory. Step 2: Delete all standard Jango Fett references. Step 3: Repack the .pk3. Step 4: Ex...  [Read More]

Yeah, would be nice to get details about the classes to come up in game. Although I am working on a proper manual... Don't you think it would be wierd to see a hero player (rebel / republic) player flying around on a jetpack? There would be no refer...  [Read More]

If your joining mid-game, and the game has progressed past the first warm-up round, I purposefully kill you as soon as you start, so that you can't join in the middle of the round. Just seemed cleaner that way... You should also die when changing te...  [Read More]

Sorry, forgot to answer the re-spawning question... I'm assuming you wanted your idea to be an option, so that you could have it as it is now, or how you described in your post -depending on the server. If not - i.e. you wanted your idea 'instead'...  [Read More]
