Manquesa Posted April 25, 2005 Author Share Posted April 25, 2005 Just to show that i'm still working on this I am still working on the skin for the cockpit, as soon as that's done I can work on rigging it to get it ingame. Oh, and yes I am still doing the yellow anakin starfighter but I switched to the obi wan version because I like the looks of that one better. But it'll be released with both skins, plus as soon as I get a glm made of this and my base skins are done, i'm gonna allow a few people to make skins for it as well and i'll release it with all of the skins everone makes for it. Hopefully soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsoontide Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Just in the unlikely case you hadn't noticed, Plo Koon is using the older (Ep2) version of the Jedi Starfighter. BTW: Looks nice. (CHeck out the first level of the ROTS from the Lego Star Wars game for some really cool Jedi Starfighter Space Battle stuff) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa_0 Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Awesome, I cant wait for these! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. I'll have to check out that Lego Star Wars game on of these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa_0 Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Yea seems like the only ppl with new ships are: Mace Anakin (2 versions) Obi-Wan (2 Versions) Saesee Tiin And thats all that I know of, Yoda might have one but thats not know yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 If you mean if he will fly one in RotS? No, you can see that in the comic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa_0 Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 well i havent really looked over the comic, I wish to stay almost spoiler free until the 19th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Also, in the comic you see that obi has a r2-d2 in red, you know round and red, not the droid sith-j was gonna add to his map Anakin just use r2d2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manquesa Posted April 27, 2005 Author Share Posted April 27, 2005 Okay, small update just for updates sake I imported the r2d2 droid from the game into Max and applied the skin made by aron smith for the ep 2 jedi starfighter to make it red. Did this just to fit it to the size of the ingame droid, it won't be part of the actual model, I still plan on using the droid tag to attatch to the droid to the ship ingame. I also worked more on the cockpit today, still need to do the underside of the cockpit though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manquesa Posted April 27, 2005 Author Share Posted April 27, 2005 I went ahead and took what I got done so far and put it ingame as an Md3 to see how it'd look, plus because i'm giving Sith J Cull Md3's of this ship to use in his map. Not too shabby huh Also, for those that wanted to skin it, here's a link to download the MD3, however my skin isn't entirely done and the bottom half of the cockpit isn't correctly uv mapped at the moment. But I figured i'd give ya something to get started on. Post here, or PM me whatever anyone does please so I can use check em out and eventually include them with the release of the vehicle. Thanks. http://www.gb-bass.com/e3sf/temp-e3sf-md3.zip Oh, if you don't have Md3view for whater reason, you can get that here: http://www.gb-bass.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Sitherino Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 R4's dome should be copper instead of white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manquesa Posted April 28, 2005 Author Share Posted April 28, 2005 Ok cool, but ...... Originally posted by Zappa_0 Obi-Wans was red in the begining of ep3 but was destroyed and then he used a blue version. I'm basing this off Obi's Red ship which I have the Hasbro toy of and that comes with the red colored droid. So, if Zappa's statement is true, then is the bronze/copper colored droid used on the Blue version of the Jedi Starfighter (which i'd really be interested in seeing pics of as well)?

Zappa_0 Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 *holding my OBi-Wan JSF Toy in my hand* OK the r2 in it is red dome with grey top, looking at you in game pic you have the colors mixed up. Just switch the red with the grey and grey with the red and it will be fine. The blue one uses the chrome color top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manquesa Posted May 15, 2005 Author Share Posted May 15, 2005 Well, I finally got it ingame as a vehicle. There's still a bit of work left to do though. I'm about to start working on the animation of the wing foils but I have a question. In the majority of the video i've seen of these ships flying around, they always have the foils closed. So, when should the foils be open? I can either just have them open up at take off and leave em that way during flight, or I can have them open up at take off and then close again so they'll stay in the closed position while flying. Those are the only 2 possible options. What should I do? Also, I know that the engine exhaust and primary weapon fire should be basically the same as a tie fighter, but what should I use for the secondary weapon fire? Any feedback is welcome. Thanks.

Zappa_0 Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 Well the EP3 JSF has the two main guns, and two on the sides. Aswell missile launchers. And yea your right those are not always up, so I guess they only go up when they speed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsoontide Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 In the lego game version of the opening space battle, the foils are open - presumably supply the extra power for the weapons. Most of the film footage I've seen so far seems to be from the start of the space battle - while Obi Wan and Anakin are flying into the battle... (Have to wait til thursday to find out for sure though!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa_0 Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 Well ive got the xbox game footage and it only shows the opening sequance with them down. So I was just giving a good guess. We will have to wait til thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manquesa Posted May 15, 2005 Author Share Posted May 15, 2005 I'm thinking they may only be used for long distance flights. I'm pretty sure when Obi Wan flys to Utapua (or however that's spelled) that they showed his ship with the foils open. And that would have been a long distance flight, as opposed to the short distance of the opening scene battle. Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manquesa Posted May 16, 2005 Author Share Posted May 16, 2005 Not much of an update, but I animated the foils to open and I put a new skin on the animated droid npc to better match with obi's vehicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadCow1989 Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 Originally posted by Manquesa Well, I finally got it ingame as a vehicle. if you look closely you can see that the engine exhausts are off place theyr a little too the right not on the JSF engine locations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manquesa Posted May 18, 2005 Author Share Posted May 18, 2005 Okay, both the Anakin and Obi-Wan skins are done! It's ingame as a vehicle and I got the shield display and reticles done and all the .veh files and weapons are finished as well. All that's left to do is put in all the damage tags on the ship so it'll spark and smoke when hit instead of showing no damage and make the explosion effects, and make a shader for it, nothing too glossy though, I hate that look. I purposely left out the landing gear because I wanted to give people the option of flying with the wings open or closed. If you take off like normal and let the animation complete you'll be flying with wings open. If you take off just a little bit then push forward and start flying before the animation gets going, then you'll be flying with the wings closed and in this case if there were landing gear the gear would be down as well which is why it's left out. This vehicle also does a pretty sweet barrel roll, this thing is so fun to fly around in. Make sure your using strafe left and strafe right (which I suggest reversing) to take advantage of the barrel roll feature, the best part IMO. Hopefully, as soon as I get the other skins from the 2 people I know of that are making extra skins for it, i'll release it within the next day or 2. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Manquesa Posted May 20, 2005 Author Share Posted May 20, 2005 I'm done! All i'm waiting on now is for those who have made skins for it to send em to me. As soon as I get em, i'll officially release this thing on pcgamemods. Until then, here's a link to download the latest beta which is basically the final version. Please post any comment and/or bug reports here.
