Lack of Modder Interest in JKA?


DrakkenVII

Recommended Posts

Small question;

 

When Jedi Knight 2 came out I remember in a matter of weeks there was a tonne of cool models and skins of a whole bunch of characters. JKA has been out for quite some time and just by browsing alot of the file sites (jk2files.com jediknight.net ect ect) I dont see anything new or worthwhile popping up for jk3..

 

Is this because the old models still work with the new game?

(Causing people to not bother making new ones?)

 

OR

 

Is it because people just dont want to?

This game has so much modding potential. I'd hate to see like 80 million different saber hilts and only a handful of unique people to hold them.

1. no sourcecode yet

2. most of the models work, and people can convert maps.

 

and yes, just looking at half of the junk at jk2files.com is boring. Half of the time someone makes a huge room, puts a few md3s in it, and a rancor and everyone is amazed! Or if it has ships in it everyone is amazed and thinks that the mapper has super modding skills.... :rolleyes:

 

Ill be making maps after christmas, ill probably make a map with ships and junk, but at least ill add a lot more detail than those guys did.... it will be worth the download. ;)

Yea. That answers my question thanks guys.

I was just wonderin because its been a while and as muhcstuff as they did finish with jk2 modding they havent done EVERYTHING yet.. I'm still waiting on a male twi'lek or a DECENT Anakin Skywalker. (Best one i've seen yet was the Obi Wan reskin.

 

Back to crossing my fingers and waiting.

 

Thanks again.

Certainly all the big ticket items are already done due to the fact that most JO stuff works in JA. So the stuff that people wanted in JO, like:

 

Yoda

Mace Windi

Qui-Gon

Obi-Wan

Han Solo

Padme

Leia

Clonetroopers

Battledroids

Other Prequel Jedi

All their sabers

Duel Of Fates maps

Movie location maps

and so on...

 

is already more or less usable in JA. So a lot of people alread have what they want.

 

But that still leaves lots to do for modders (especially mappers) in JA. If maps are well done, they will be used...
