Yeah, that'd be a nice extra skin to have - especially for something like the Battle of Geonosis say. But I think it's also worth keeping the 'clean' version too. Check out the droidekas at the beginning of Ep.I - their immaculate......  [Read More]

Would also be worth waiting for the new droideka skin that's in the works. Looks like good progress is being made though, so shouldn't be too long... Droideka skin (http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=1416988#post1416988)...  [Read More]

As far as the concept of basing a mod off of OJP code, you do have two options. One is to start basing the code off it now, and keep getting updates from the repository. This is not as bad as it sounds! Once you've got the hang of using the CVS syst...  [Read More]

Well, before I talk about sprint, it's worth saying that I'm not sure whether I will be including the sprint button into MB II anymore. I'm thinking about it at the moment. But anyway, yes - the sprint button allows you to defend and run (slower tha...  [Read More]

If the attacker is allowed to run and the defender isn't.. then you got an almost stationary target with a hammering oppoenent straf running around in and out of it. If you've played Movie Battles recently, you'd know this isn't the case. With bloc...  [Read More]

And how so? If the defender even moves slightly slower than the attacker, the attacker will be able to have a clear advantage at footwork manveoring and the attacks will still come at the exact same speed. Are you sure you don't mean making the attac...  [Read More]

I don't think that's a good idea. Slowing down defender while he is blocking is only going to cause him to get overrun/trapped by an attacker. I don't know where you are coming from with this at all. I think you are creating a problem where there i...  [Read More]

I've tried the new saber system. It's definetly worth keeping it in a seperate branch - for now... It's looking good so far. The first thing I'm gonna do though is slow down movement while holding down block. Not only does it look a bit silly imo at...  [Read More]

Ahh - k. Sorry, I did misunderstand you - I apologise. But I don't think the anim slowdowns were meant to combat lag, I think it was simply because - for example - blue attacks would simply be too quick to manually defend - unless you had literally...  [Read More]

I don't take offense, and thanks for your input. I understand your viewpoint, but I disagree. Concerning the lag issue, I'll quote what I posted in the brainstorming thread: The other main arguments I hear against a block button are: "It wil...  [Read More]

but i think we have a minor problem with the turning when standing, the rpoblem is every time you move the cursor the shield starts to pop down and pop up, this make the hole movement kind of lagy. I've changed that already. From what I saw in the...  [Read More]

Ahh -I think I know what the problem is... ...isn't OmniMod a server-side only mod? THe MAX_VEHICLES define is in bg_vehicles.h, which means I don't think it will work for just server-side mods. I think you need a client download to fix this......  [Read More]
