Rich! Hi, and welcome! :) I had emailed you previously about how much I enjoyed, and benefited from your tutorials. jnday@prodigy.net. Thanks for contributing here. LucasForums was down last night when I tried to post an update, so here it is! I'm h...  [Read More]

Ok, I have the Padme action figure. So if her pillar is accurate, I'll go from that. Thanks for the pic. Rich is a good guy for help, too, thanks. His tutorials inspired me to start this project. Well, I'm going to go get some junk food for inspirat...  [Read More]

The lighting was really screwed up in those last screenshots, Elkin. Nothing was as it is supposed to be. HOWEVER, I have just about completed the entry room using a lot of patches and curves. It looks a million times better, and the frame rate is s...  [Read More]

Sorry, no updates tonight. I'm away from home, but I am taking the suggestions that were made to heart. And I AM learning! :) I think the driod factory and the arena were separate areas, but I could be wrong. Also, this map is going to be HUGE as it...  [Read More]

Winner_rex, As always, your suggestions are helpful. I did agree with you about the blades that ran along the walls. They did need to be more "embossed" into the wall, rather than act as a ledge to stand on. For scale, I guess I can't rel...  [Read More]

Hi all! I'm going to post a few new screenshots here. I'm having some major problems, though, and I'm hoping a few of you might be able to help me out. One thing I'm sure you'll agree on in these next photos is that the textures are better. But light...  [Read More]

Don't get too excited, though. I just sealed up one of the many duplicate entry point rooms on the ground level (minus the columns that will cover the seams where the curves meet the solid wall). Lighting is really killing me. I would like to simulat...  [Read More]

I'm here...trying to stay awake...LOL. I think I'm getting my second wind now. Here's the scoop. I'm still building the ground level of the map, but I think I have started too many areas down there, making it difficult to reach a stopping point so I...  [Read More]

Interesting thread you have going there, studman. And sorry to hear about your brother commandeering your computer! Well, you're alright in my book. I'll be looking forward to your tutorial. Can't wait to spawn a few npcs that actually look like Sith...  [Read More]

Ok, well I'm not really upset or anything. I'm just yelling because this thread is on page 2 and there is no real game footage yet. I had planned on making a significant update tonight but it just isn't ready. Sorry, guys! Well, I guess the worst you...  [Read More]

Studman, maybe. But there's not much on my end yet, so we'll get to questions like yous later on. I hope to post an update tonight...well..um...this morning. Hehe. But no promises just yet. Also, I noticed you made a similar offer about making non-r...  [Read More]

Winner_rex, Neat idea! I just visited your thread, and you're doing a nice job. However, the LAAT does need a little bit more realistic detail. The pictures that were supplied by the person who replied to you should help you out greatly! Goodness, th...  [Read More]

I'm not too worried about the arena floor elevation. (The only concern I have with that is actually making the sound of crunching/shifting sand as Kyle or another character runs on it, rather than the standard "clop clop" of boots on stone...  [Read More]

Uggh...back in school again. My school goes year round, and I have a few night classes this quarter. I may not be able to post many updates for the next 11 weeks, but I'll keep checking here to see what you have to say. See you all soon....  [Read More]

Ok, I better get my butt out of Bryce and into Radiant. I think I have what I need to get some textures on the models. To answer some of your questions: [list=1] Getting the arena from Bryce to Radiant may not be easy at all. GtkRadiant (not JKRadia...  [Read More]

Thanks, Kranckor! Bryce is pretty powerful, but I still have trouble with the positive/negative thing that allows models to be cut into. I'll need to figure it out for this map, though. Hey, everyone. I didn't get to the part I wanted to get to tod...  [Read More]

Wes, what isn't working? To all of you, let me know if you have any problems. Brinkster is a pretty good service, but I'll have to move my updates to another server if I start hitting the bandwidth limit. I'll work more on this project tonight (EST)...  [Read More]

Ok. 4 pillars it is. :) How about I give you all some eye candy? I've decided to maintain a project web site, though I will post a few screens in here as construction gets under way. But for now, please check out http://www24.brinkster.com/jnday. N...  [Read More]

I see the four pillars in one image, but only three in another. Was one of them removed before the execution set-up? Thanks for those pics, OCH...they are a helpful start. I saw a couple of those on Starwars.com last night but I didn't get to all of...  [Read More]

Well, I've finally decided to begin a map building project. A word of warning, however! This project will be tackled little by little alongside my other work and activities, so you may not see a final release for a while. But yes, this is the Geonosi...  [Read More]

Klorel, Awesome! You fixed the eyelids so i'm not making a suggestion here, but let me explain why the eyes needed to be fixed, and why the community was going nuts about it. When Mace, or any person for that matter, tilts his head down and looks up,...  [Read More]

Darth Torgo, I agree with what you said about searching other films for good taunt lines. I actually think that the best one you mentioned was "Oh, I'm sorry. Did I break your concentration?" The others have cursing you won't find in the S...  [Read More]

Sorry... wasn't suggesting any kind of team thing happen here. I was just passing along a recommendation for all of us to download the Obi Wan and Qui Gon from TEX/Mark_Li (once released), along with the Mace Windu from Klorel to make a nice prequel...  [Read More]
