El Sitherino Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 yeah well lucky me you already had most of the stuff set at excellent settings . I'm not sure about the shader tuts. Can't wait to see this finished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan_10158 Posted October 7, 2003 Author Share Posted October 7, 2003 InsaneSith, i just tried your settings, but i cant see any difference. what should mouseYaw and turnWhenStopped change? Hi t3rr0r, nice to see you again. good idea with the flying STAP, i gone have a try if it works. i will set gravity to 0 and see what happens.

Tesla Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 InsaneSith, how did you get the Anakin Skywalker saber to work with it's textures normal, because i have got it in game, just it's textures are messed up, the same goes for the Dooku saber ?? Sorry to go off topic, nice vehicles BTW can't wait to use them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi t3rr0r, nice to see you again. good idea with the flying STAP, i gone have a try if it works. i will set gravity to 0 and see what happens. it makes for a much eaiser turn where as you just had it set with a faster turn. oh i also went and rasied the armor. i forgot to mention that, orginally you had it at 800 instead of the normal 2000. . and remember the smallest, least notable changes, are always the most effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan_10158 Posted October 7, 2003 Author Share Posted October 7, 2003 ok, i see its not only faster turning, it has also a better tracking, good. about the Armor, in my original i have a armor of 80, not 800. so to set it to 2000 make it 50 times longer to destroy? and what mean malfunctionArmorLevel? you set it form 20 to 2000 too. i think 5 times tougher should be good, isnt it? i also fixed the bug with the STAP, while turning the driver had a slitly different center of inclination so that his feet were not always in the right place. now its correct and Tesla, i am not one of those >this belongs there, not here<, so every question is welcome. but i have no idea how InsaneSith made that so InsaneSith i would like to know that too.

mace_sundancer Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 speeder bike looks hella cool, STAP looks a tad naff tho, mebbe you should use the tauntaun posture instead, they just look way funny with their butts sticking out so far...

Duncan_10158 Posted October 7, 2003 Author Share Posted October 7, 2003 so i made a partly new skin for the speeder_bike, brown like requested. added also engine glow shaders. but i have no idea how to make the shader for a metalic or rusty look. if somebody knows about that, could you give me some hint. i havent found no helping tutorial on that, does somebody know one? one problem when driving a stap, the laser is shoting strait so the chance to hit someone is zero, cause its shoting much to high. if we make the aiming like it is in a ATST, strait horizontaly but you can aim in the vertical a bit. that would make much more sence. i havent found the parameter for that to enable. does somebody know it? and nearly forgot it, should i sent the new version to you testers again, so we are all on the same again?

El Sitherino Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 i know the parameter lemme dig it up. also uhmm how do you make a shader i could make a rust look i just don't know how to make shaders >_<~ ATST_vehicle { name ATST_vehicle type VH_WALKER numHands 2 hideRider 1 killRiderOnDeath 1 lookYaw 45 lookPitch 45 .... .... .... mouseYaw 0.05 mousePitch 0.01 the pitch is the up and down. so naturally we need to set that. my main concern is people crashing into the ground. now I'd like to keep it easy to look around and aim but also if it is too easy then it'd make crashing more likely. I'd like it to stay rather easy to do things.... maybe I'll find more while digging through settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraZy_B Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 That's a good idea Duncan. An up-to-date file would be appreciated. I've been tinkling in the .veh files. IMO The center of gravity is good as it is. I agree with the reverse part. (I changed that for the swoop as well some time ago) I don't know how to fix the firing angle. This way lasers are purely for looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan_10158 Posted October 8, 2003 Author Share Posted October 8, 2003 i just sent the newest versions to the testers, you should have it in your mailbox now i think its pritty close to release version. the lookPitch and mousePitch does not affect firing direction, at least not in my changed version. does it work in someones game? and it is also not the sence that you can fly up in the are with a swoop or a bike or crash on the other side. so we need to let that idea fall, what you think? one more point, what about additional skins? should these two vehicles have more the one skin? and waht skins would look good? if we dont have any new revolutionary ideas or we strongly disagree to some leatest changes, i think we are ready to release it.

monsoontide Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 Hi Duncan, Just adding my ten cents here as well. As I mentioned in the other thread - I can post you my Stap model to see if you can get it to work properly. I suspect it's probably a part of the export process although my .glm file shows up fine in ModView. Are you using 3DSmax or Softimage at all? I think the biggest problem will be to add animations to the player characters so they sit properly on the new vehicles. Don't forget, you can add those little 'damage indicator' graphics to the HUD (Noticeable on things like the X-Wing) Monsoontide. P.S. As an aside - anyone tried spawning the yt-1300! if you do you'll get an invisible falcon (cos there's no yt-1300 vehicle model in the models/players folder) and when you get in it will crash JK:JA!)

El Sitherino Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 If you want you can send it to me. I could take a look at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan_10158 Posted October 9, 2003 Author Share Posted October 9, 2003 Originally posted by InsaneSith it seems that in order for the pitch to work the gun has to be movable like the atst's head. no its not the movable head or something like that. i tried to change the type VH_WALKER. it worked somehow. now it was possible to aim vertiacly, but the moving changed completly. the stap was bumping up and down the hole time and der driver had a wrong possition. so the aiming has something to do with the vehicle type. thats probably a coding thing. monsoontide, ok i will have a try to put your model in game. you can sent it me to this email. i am using 3ds max, so sent me your file in 3ds and glm formats. perhaps i need to reexport it. about the drivers animation, i dont think that is possible. we have to stik to the drivers possitions that are in game. i made my models so, that they fit >under< those sitting drivers. adding new driver animations would need adding it to the _humanoid.gla file and changing some code. thats not possible yet. and to add those damage indicators, that would need to change the vehicle type. i tried it just once, we still need to learn more about that.

monsoontide Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 O.K. Duncan, will send it your way this evening after I get home from work. If you can get it to work, we can go from there (Since I have at this point 6 vehicles nearly modeled(m) & textured(t): sith speeder 100% m 75% t stap 100% m 90% t speeder bike 95% m 75% t anakins speeder 30% m dewback 90% m 70% t acklay 95% m 85% t). If we can get this working together, i might do a Reek as well! Will send you: .md3 .3ds texture Anything else you need to make your life easier? .skin file .veh file .npc etc As far as the rider positions go, it reminds me of the old speeder bike toy where the scouts legs didn't bend so he wasn't really sitting on it properly. I think I will keep my models acurate and have the riders look funny ;-) Monsoontide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan_10158 Posted October 9, 2003 Author Share Posted October 9, 2003 Originally posted by monsoontide Anything else you need to make your life easier? .skin file .veh file .npc etc sure, if you already wrote them, it would make my life easier and the rider positions, i made quite a bit of changings on to models so the driver better fit in. so its a good alternativ if you keep close the originals alltough you skins look realy realistic compeard to mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoMarz1 Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 Hey Duncan, I noticed you used my "Obi Sith variant" in one of your screenshots Thanks for the publicity! Hey the reason I'm making a post here, is I need some help. I am working on putting both Zam, and Anakin's speeder in the game. I need a base file to work off (with tags, bones and whatever else). I actually have the Zam model ready, but I dont have a base file to referance. I need a 3Ds, Max file, or maybe .Xsi. I would like to get a little advice here and there, but nothing that would tie up the time you have invested in this project. Please write me... neomarz1@sbcglobal.net ( I hope I hear from you). By the way, if you need skin tweaks, I'm your man. Sincerely, Mars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan_10158 Posted October 9, 2003 Author Share Posted October 9, 2003 NeoMarz1, there is a >JA models and skinmap< pack releasd by raven, there is a swoop in XSI frmat in it, the reference you request. if you have any other questions, go ahead, we all are learning here. and about the skins, i could realy need some help, specialy about the shaders. i dont even know wahts possible, how could i let something look metalic? and so on.
