I'm sorry. I didn't make an understandable distinction between the Enhanced distro and enhancements. The Enhanced distro is the package of OJP that includes gameplay changes. Enhancements are simply stuff that goes beyond simple bug fixes. You can...  [Read More]

So, basically like the one handed style that Dooku used or more like the one handed fighting that Vader used? Anyway, since this really affects the saber system, I suggest you take this discussion over to the saber system brainstorming thread (http:...  [Read More]

I'm against comboing in a "it's different than normal attacking" sense. It's not realistic and forces people to remember button combinations. However, I'm in favor of dynamic comboing which basically means that you pick your next saber mo...  [Read More]

Yes, I imagine that the dodge system will play a big role in all this, especially since real life players can't react with jedi-like reflexes. For those that don't know what the Dodge system does, it's basically a "n00b/fudging" meter. It...  [Read More]

Running stuff I didn't mean to imply that running should be the defualt movement mode. It shouldn't. I just feel that the penalities for running while using the saber while should be more ...err...transparent. Things like major vuneriblities to knoc...  [Read More]

Well, I was referring to the current stances/styles as well. :) Anyway, adding "stances" would be pretty difficult. You'd have to add a bunch of code and add a transition/return movement from the stance position to each saber position. I d...  [Read More]

Styles mostly. I'm debating on working on a Flamboyant style. Like Fencing. I've got a rough stance hammered out for it. where the saber flies off the belt into the already outstretched hand. I can do a quick replacement job on fast or tavion style...  [Read More]
