llcj Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 ok i was wondering if there were mods out there that would change the tips of lightsaers to be pointy like jka for kotortsl
tnu Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 well if you used a vibroblade model and did a reskining of it that might work
glovemaster Posted June 5, 2007 Posted June 5, 2007 if you reskinned a vibroblade you would not get the lightsaber effects, sound, or light. Mybe if you edited the lightsaber model so that the two 'planes' that mark the blade are pointed? Though you will need a modeling program, gmax is a good free program.
Master Zionosis Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 This is where i originally got Gmax from, as Autodesk no longer allow it for download on their site, Turbosquid is the only place to get it now, this page also has some tutorials on how to use the program as well. Have fun.
llcj Posted June 6, 2007 Author Posted June 6, 2007 thanks Master Edit: i can not figure out how to use gmax
Master Zionosis Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 thanks Master Edit: i can not figure out how to use gmax Well, with a bit more of a description of your problem could help us figure out what your problem is.
glovemaster Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 Maybe you could ask some one to do it for you? I'll do it if you want but if you want to then: Get NWmax, just google it. Import the model using NWmax (the model must be ASCII) and edit it. Then export from the model base. I would recommend manipulating the vertex coordinates as they are much better to change. Also you may need to slice the planes so you can keep a point. Also.. I'm not entirly sure it will work. As i said, i don't mind making you the model but im a bit busy to make the mod for it.
ChAiNz.2da Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 Not sure if it will work gang, but ny no means should I deter you (I'd be interested in knowing myself ), BUT since the blades contain animations you might not be able to properly export once you start messing around... Again though, since I've never attempted it, don't take my word "as law" hehehe. Just wanted to give you a precaution in case you run into problems. One of the many theories where I'd love to be wrong on this
llcj Posted June 6, 2007 Author Posted June 6, 2007 Okay since i dont know to do use the modding tools could somewon please make a lightsaber with a pointy tip like in jka
ChAiNz.2da Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 let's keep it to one thread per request Merged your last post/thread with your first thread (this one)
glovemaster Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 BUT since the blades contain animations you might not be able to properly export once you start messing around... Thats what i though. I think you should wait until we have learned more about the mdl/mdx format . Or of course if you still want to try, then go ahead
