Harukaze has contacted me and he will no longer be working on a Jorus skin. He's been pretty busy lately and has lost his internet connection. I've been talking to adillon and he's agreed to put together some custom sounds for Joruus. I started som...  [Read More]

I started doing some weighting of my mesh and when I tried to assimilate I got this message: "Unable to find bone "l_hand" referenced in this mesh" This is pretty weird since l_hand isn't even a bone. Anybody know what I'm doing...  [Read More]

Thanks for the praise. I'm pretty happy with the way the skin has turned out so far. I worked some on the belt, and toned the abs down a little bit. About the sounds, that is a very good question. I've thought about it and really haven't come up with...  [Read More]

Thanks adillon, but this truley is my first model. About the abs, I'll tone them down but Joruus is pretty ripped. I'm going by the cover of Heir to the Empire. I'll post of pic of it as soon as I have time....  [Read More]

I did some more work on the robes, and started the hair. Don't mind the belt. I have'nt started it yet. As for the color of his chest and face, I still have more to work on there. The Pic (http://www.geocities.com/donahuepj/index9.html) I also have...  [Read More]

The chest will probably look better once I color it. As for the alpha maps, yes I'm going to try them out. However, I know on yoda they were used to make the hair thin. And Joruus's hair is pretty thick (even the beard). Can alpha maps be used withou...  [Read More]

Sorry, but Joruus isn't in-game yet. I still have to weight the mesh. I did a quick weighting before, but I had to scrap it because I ran in to some problems (which were later worked out)....  [Read More]

I got the model into ModView and it was all messed up. The torso was not even connected to the legs and alot of the body parts were floating in various places. Does anybody know what I might have done wrong? Is this just a weighting problem?...  [Read More]

Hey, thanks alot. I think it's safe to say my second model has turned out much better than my first, and I'm kind of glad I lost the first one. Right now I'm in the process of weighting, and then it's on to UVW mapping. Adillon, I looked at the alpha...  [Read More]

I made the sleeves wider, finished up the hair, and added some more details. I'm keeping the robe split down the middle. I just think it will work better that way. I think I'm pretty much finished with the actual modeling (If you think I've missed so...  [Read More]
