[TSL] HK-51 as he appears in SWTOR

[Kainzorus Prime]

Looks good. Further differentiation.

[Sith Holocron]

How is the DarthParametric's HK family like traditions for a Bride?

 

The "Four Somethings"

 

Something Old

Something New

Something Borrowed (or at least unchanged from the original in this case)

And Something Blue

[DarthParametric]

Interesting tangent: I just realised that the early cybernetic (Series 505, etc.) Adaptive Armours in SWTOR use HK-51's pelvis.

[DarthParametric]

So here's the "classic" HK-47 textured up and in action:

 

 

 

Still need to make a few tweaks to the texture and the envmap mask. I did switch to mycube though, as Kainzorus suggested, which is what Bioware used in K1.

[Kainzorus Prime]

Looks good, although a little dark in-game. I assume it's just because of the area lighting.

[DarthParametric]

The texture ended up a little dark with all the weathering. Still tweaking, as I said.

[Xarwarz]

I really like that light grey one with the hint of brown strips

[Zhaboka]

This is looking incredible, especially the HK-51.

[Isaac Clarke]

Wow! I didn't actually think this thread would lead anywhere, as this forum is pretty much dead. Thankfully you proved me wrong DarthParametric! Those models look great, can't wait until you release them.

[LORD SPARTAN]

This is simply art, as HK probably the most messed up model of the game. Still crossing my fingers for a K1 version.

[DarthParametric]

Yes there will be a K1 release, as I said earlier in the thread.

[Darth DeadMan]

Awesome work, DP!

Looks like it's a model issue, not texture. Have you tried fix for lighting on custom models?

[Bob Saget]

I may not like TOR but I did like their HK model, and the fact that it's being brought to TSL makes me even happier. Keep up the good work DP!

[DuckfromPortal]

No, it's a texture issue. It ended up a lot darker than the first one. Technically it's not even an "issue" as such, just a matter of personal preference.

Yes, the HK-51s only show up in the restored HK factory section of TSLRCM (and possibly the end game section, depending on your choices). If you have only played the vanilla game, you'd only have seen HK-50s.

@Darth Parametric: So since - in contrast to the Droid Foundry - the HK model seems to work fine ingame, when will be the release??

 

If the only "issue" is a too dark texture, well that wont be a problem since there are plenty good retexturers out there..

He said that he's waiting for the graphics suite he uses to have its beta updated. Let's give Parametric the chance to finish the mod on his own terms before other folks swarm to add their own touches to it.

[Kainzorus Prime]

Still hanging onto this thread like a leering vulture, waiting for updates.

[Shaggoth]

same here

[Kexikus]

I'm pretty excited for the release of this mod too even though I'd only use the HK 50 and 51 (I like HK-47s design too much to change it ).

I had seen this request quite a while ago and now I just stumbled upon this thread only to see that the model is actually really in the making. Great work

[Kainzorus Prime]

Any news?

[DarthParametric]

[Jospeh Lyons]

Please tell me this is not dead!?

[DarthParametric]

No, I just delay it by 6 months every time someone bumps the thread.
