For a pic of the Biker Scout, check out page 2 of the JKA: Vehicles WIP - Speeder Bike, STAP & Dewback Pix thread. I don't think a shader will do for the spines as although doing thaat way would save on polygons, the main problems are that it's...  [Read More]

Of course, it all comes down to what you the artist do with the tools. Did I mention Keshire now has my Biker Scout model for processing? Should get to do some more work on the Nexu this weekend....  [Read More]

Lightwave 7.5. But I would suggest going with GMAX (free cut down version of 3DS max) or downloading the demo of MAX 6 if you intend to model for Jedi Knight. Although I personally feel Lightwave has the better modeler, 3DSMAX is more compatile with...  [Read More]

"Sigh!" "He will LEARN patience." The one you can ride and the one you can't are the same thing - just one is the npc version and the other the vehicle version. Changed the pic at the top of this thread to show the model with a...  [Read More]

The other alternative is to CODE a NEW VEHICLE CLASS - that is a cross between the swoop (visable rider) and spaceship (flying) and allows for different sections of the player animation to be used. Unfortunately I have NO IDEA how to do this & th...  [Read More]
