Sorry for the lack of updates lately.

 

The reason is I honestly hadn't actually done anything for quite a while. About a month. I know it's a bad excuse, but I just didn't "feel like it", and I've been busy with several other Star Wars projects. The last skins I did were for the Starkiller mod, not for TSLMIM. But yesterday I decided to just put my focus for now on this mod and the KOTOR Revelation fanfilm.

 

Got a LOT of work done on TSLMIM yesterday. I've started retexturing alien species (new versions look MUCH better), giving some more diversity to commoners, and adding new species such as Pau'ans, Chiss, Givin, Neimoidians, and more.

 

No images on those yet, though - but for now, here is Sion.

There's some new major plans as well. I'll be having new cinematics in the game, such as for the Devastation of Katarr and Atton's past as an assassin. I'll be using a compination of differenet elements for these, not just game captures. Sort of like my upcoming Revelationfanfilm.

 

I've also set up a Livestream channel to have news/previews/live gameplay and modding for TSLMIM. Any previews and trailers will appear there for the first time.

 

Finally, I was wondering if anyone would like to help re-UV-map the models for Darth Nihilus, Atton Rand (face only), Mandalore, and the Sith trooper, so that both sides could be textured. Credit would be given.

While I'm sure everyone would like you to be working on this project like a slave :D, we all understand that you are a human being and you are doing this for free.

 

New cinematics, new aliens, improved aliens, more commoner diversity...this going to be awesome!

 

The Sion reskin looks fantastic. More zombie like for one, and he looks less like a wimp.

 

Request: more screenshots in general would be awesome. After all, the degree of detail in these skins is very...hypnotic? :D

Thanks, I appreciate it. :)

I'd rather have a new video up soon (very soon) of something never-before-seen up soon instead of having a lot of screenshots up. That doesn't mean there won't be any until then...maybe I'll show some of the new species and one world.

 

Perhaps releasing a .RAR/ZIP/7z archive with all current screenshots will be a good idea?

 

And if you renew the archive when you make some progress fans can view the screenies at any time.

 

When the mod's released, I may put a ton of behind the scenes images on a ZIP file for download on ModDB.

 

Do you have a site besides this one that has more info and all of the screenshots shown here?

Thx!

 

Yeah, I have a section on ModDB. It's sort of like an IGN page. Here's the link.

Thanks very much, all.

 

-DK-: You're right - it's just black there right now. It will be fixed in the final version.

Triple-Eight: I'm not sure whether I will or not, it might not work that well. But I'll consider it. It wouldn't be until after releasing the Malak reskin anyway.

 

Here's another WIP shot, this time of Malak/Alek/Malek. The texture's very hi-res (1536x1536), and the intent is to make him look more like his appearance in the comics. I've always thought he looked weak in the original version. The current red outfit is only a stand-in for what will be a complete redesign.

Heh, with all these Sith I've textured, I should start working on the Jedi...

Quoted For Emphasis!

 

 

Drewton, your Alek Squinq... I mean Malak is awesome. Keep it up! :thmbup1:

 

PS - I am hoping for Chantique skin in the future... Pretty please. :)

Thanks for all the comments, I really appreciate them.

Chantique will definitely be in a KotOR comic pack that I've been planning! I've already started Zayne, but I probably won't get the pack done until after TSLMIM.

 

I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to add a new texture image to the lightsaber ignition animation. I'd like to add a lens flare as it activates.
