Dark Forces 2 Mod Discussion

[DeadYorick]

I have a question. When you get around to doing Boc how are you going to have him have 2 lightsabers?

[M@RS]

hmm, that's a good point...I don't know.

[Agent_Katarn00]

That is actually a great question.

We'll have to figure out that problem later in the later releases.

Damn jedi outcast with the single blades

[Agent_Katarn00]

I'm going to post some more screens soon

[DarthPhae]

Why don't you just do this mod for JA? It would solve your problem with Boc, and you would also have a lot more models to work with.

[Agent_Katarn00]

We cant do it for JA.

For one thing i dont have JA,

and also i dont know all about editing ja.

Also,just one problem that could effect the mod so much i will have to do it for another game is too much for

just a mod.

[DarthPhae]

Editing JA is pretty much the same as editing JO. Of course it doesn't help much if you don't have the game...

[Agent_Katarn00]

I'm almost done with my kyle skin

[Inyri]

You don't need to keep posting updates every ten minutes unless you actually have something to show. Wait to post an update until you have some kind of visual update, or at least include some information.

[Agent_Katarn00]

Okay...

Thanks for the advice.

But here's the kyle skin i think i'm done

[Inyri]

My advice: lighten his hair color (it was much browner in DF2 than in JO) and also he really needs to look younger. He's losing more than a handful of years between JO and DF2. This is actually a very good reference for the Dark Forces 2 era Kyle.

[Agent_Katarn00]

Thanks,Inyri!

I will be updating it time by time,but i have no intention on changing the model in the 1st release.Just to let you know.

Once my computer is cleaned up i will be able to do more...

[DarthPhae]

He's not bad. There are a few things that should be fixed. First off his shirt needs to be brighted up a bit, along with his hair like Inyri said. Also his shoulder pad could use some changes, it's a little too dark for one thing. Overall though it's pretty nice Katarn00. Good job.

[Agent_Katarn00]

Well i'm trying to make kyle from the cut-scenes so i think the shirt is fine in my opinion.

[M@RS]

I think you did a good job, just lighten the hair up just a tad bit. And, personally I think you should lighten up his eye color too.

[Agent_Katarn00]

Thanks for all your help guys:D

Glad you are helping me out with this kind of stuff so i can get it as good i can get.

I start school tommorrow:firemad: so progress will be a tad slower but i will be doing as much as i can with free time.

[DarthPhae]

Well i'm trying to make kyle from the cut-scenes so i think the shirt is fine in my opinion.

No trust me, the shirt is a bit lighter in the cut-scenes then the one we see in JO and JA.

[M@RS]

I'm currently uploading my trando skin to JK3files I'll give you a link as soon as possible

[Agent_Katarn00]

Cool.

Good luck,hope you get a good review.

[M@RS]

Me too.

 

okay it's up to the staff at JK3files *crosses fingers nervously*

[Agent_Katarn00]

Here's the HUD i'll be using for the mod.

Please note that i will be changing the force bar to a different color soon

[M@RS]

So what will this mod do exactly? Will it completely convert the game, or just change the hud, character, ect.?

[Agent_Katarn00]

Well it is planned and semi-official total conversion.

New,levels,skins,models,etc will be included in the mod or something really big comes up during progress that could change that.

But i'm planning to officialy make it a total conversion

[Inyri]

New,levels,skins,models,etc

Oh? Who's your mapper and modeler, or are you learning these skills?

[Agent_Katarn00]

Well i'm learning it along the way,i'm kind of testing my skills in this mod and gaining experience with modding.I know a bit about mapping and texturing.

The problem is that my computer is not letting any of the editing tools run.

It started just now.But hopefully it will work when my computer is cleaned up.

I am not planning on making any new models in the first version.

If anything i will be borrowing models from people.
