Drewton Posted March 25, 2009 Author Share Posted March 25, 2009 Maybe you could change the buttons from the blue to silver, then show us a pic to compare to the blue one, cause its seems with the menu it's focused mainly on silver, so I figure why not more? Err, I think you just saw the first version of the menu I posted. The v2, with silver buttons, is a few posts below that. PS-how are u so good are you a game designer or something? Heh heh, I wish. 1) Okay, that new menus is beyond amazing. Not sure the background fits (unless you're changing the music). 2) Question: Will character reskins be optional (as in will you have them in separate folders from the overall install)? I may be changing the music; not sure yet. If I find another track that better fits it I'll definitely use that. I'll be using the TSL Patcher for this mod, which I have absolutely no experience with so I don't know if I'd be able to keep them as optional in the installation...but if not, I'll state which textures the character skins are in the readme so you can delete them if you like. Another update: I've never liked the blurry grey-purple Force lightning, so I've replaced it. It now looks much sharper and almost like the Force lightning in TFU. I'm also hoping to remove the flare that's on the user's hand when it happens, but I haven't been able to find the texture. Again, thank you all for the encouragement!

Ghost Down Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 I'm not sure, but I think that the flare is removed by altering a .2da file. There's also a mod somewhere that removes most of the effects, but I can't remember what it is called. Try asking around for it, maybe it can help you in removing the flare effect.

DarthParametric Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 That would be Shem's Realistic Visual Effects mod - http://knightsoftheoldrepublic.filefront.com/file/Realistic_Visual_Effects;90383 Better get it quick - apparently FileFront is shutting down on the 30th.

jrrtoken Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 If you wish, you have my consent to include both my Music and Ambiance Improvement Mods within this. Either way, it looks very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthDementous Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Looks beautiful so far! I'd like to see you also include better terrain textures. THAT would be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just found it; it's fx_conjure.tga. After removing it from the lightning though I think it's actually better with, because the placement of the lightning to the hands is incorrect and it looks awkward. If you wish, you have my consent to include both my Music and Ambiance Improvement Mods within this. Either way, it looks very nice. Alright, thanks a lot . I will indeed include them, they're excellent mods. I've now done two textures for the main menu and I'm not sure which is better. Here's Option 1, which was posted above: And Option 2. The launcher uses a similar background. Or should I do something completely different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canderis Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I think I like the first one better, but the 2nd one is amazing too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriggerGod Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Wow, Option 2 looks a lot better then just plain old space. If you can fix it, I'd say make it so that you can't see the stars from the ship hull. (see right hand side) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chevron 7 locke Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 After some serious thinking...I'd have to say option 2, Option 1 looks great though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yatsookey Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 i like option 2 it seems to make the menu feel more detailed than just a starfield great job so far cant wait, just hope you have a place to host it once your done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW01 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I'd say Option 2 as well - it seems more 'complete'. As always, I look forward to seeing your completed work! Good luck with the project! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HK-42 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Wow. I like 2, but the words are kindof hard to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sith Holocron Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 The second one was from the TFU website, was it not? I'll put my vote with number one (the starfield). If only you could animate the stars behind him too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Payne Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Option 2 is better. VERY nice work Drewton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Down Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Yeah, I also like option 2 more.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zbyl2 Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Would be possible to include both option in mod so you can chose one of them? I personally prefer first menu, (I think it fit to TSL better) but it looks like lot of people like second one more. Anyway - amazing work Drewton looking forward to any future updates.

memarik Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 nice work but i like the first one more the other is kinda like some halo stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedge Suron Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Would be possible to include both option in mod so you can chose one of them? I was about to suggest the same. How about 2 different mod links, with different launchers being the only difference. My suggestion, some help possibly with some of them. All Lightsaber and Force forms learnable. - Which I'm asking a friend to allow his which does this, into this. - Darth Nihilus has more hitpoints, it's been done before but not with this kind of content. Visas into a Jedi Guardian or Sith Assassin. - She'd be more logical as a supossedly assassin as one than a Jedi Sentinel. - Atton to a Soldier and into a Jedi Guardian. - Something that's been bugging me recently, he'd be better as a Soldier given his history. - More Jedi and Dark Jedi robes spread throughout the game. Visas no longer wearing Clothes but Dark Jedi Knight Robes which would be more appropriate for someone of her place as Nihilus's apprentice.

The_Dark_Jedi_Malaka Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I'm torn.....option one is easier toread, but the starry background just doesn't quite do it for me... Option two is the one I'm gunning for, but the text should be darker though. =] Some of use like staring into the sun, and are going to be bling by age 35, so darker fonts are good. But I'm sticking with option 2!! But, incase you tweak them both then I'd like to have the option of using either one, cause my ADD gets the best of me most days.... But anyhow, you are doing an amzing job, my friend....keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Dark_Jedi_Malaka Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Blue lightning.....love it! I myself would go for purple for my character, and orange for my boyfriends, but I'm sure I can edit that =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dholm Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I'm certain the font color in "option two" is simply the original font. I seriously doubt Drewton would use that font in the actual mod. I'd vote for the first, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will O' The Wisq Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 I would go for the second... Just looks more right in some sort of weird way :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Down Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Idea! What if you made the background look like the bridge of Ravager? That way it's like Nihilus is standing on the Ravager's bridge.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
