JediF model

[Danica]

i've heard some people mention this model, but I can't seem to find it in the pk3 files...anyone help??

[Danica]

please someone help

[JediMouse]

I've been wondering about this, too. I think this is a good model, and would be great for MP, and it also has great editing potential (thinking Mara in an all-black jumpsuit).

 

I've searched both .pk3 files, and I can't find anything anywhere. Having successfully spawned her in SP, this really puzzles me.

Just looked, cant see it either

[Absath]

along this same sort of topic, has anyone figured out how to activate the second head polygons for some of these characters? if you like into the prisoner model, for example, you'll see that there is a head 1 and head 2 file, along with face 1 and face 2. now head one and face one are the bearded face and head with the puffy hair. face 2 and head two however, show a clean shaven face and what looks to be a buzzed or bald head. the problem is when you apply the second head skin, it doesnt fit around the puffy hair...it ends up looking wierd. does this second head image go under the first or something? or is there a second head model without the puffy hair?

[Sturmgewehr]

I might be wrong. But I belive the JediF model is the same model and textures as the regular Jan. The goggles and jacket are seperate things added to the base JediF model to create the Jan model.

 

Just as in Medal of Honor, where the helmet or hat and vests can be seperate models from the rest of the character's model.

[JediMouse]

Then there would be files for the JediF in Jan's folder. There aren't.

I am wondering how the single play NPC's, such as the JediF model or even the Jedi2 model can be extracted for multiplayer as well. I can't seem to locate the Jedi2 graphic files, though I have found the hair to the model. The reason I wish to use the Jedi2 model is due to the fact I wish to use the head for a bald character.

[Danica]

actually I think they're seperate models, as the goggles/vest/chaps seem to be built into the jan model because you can't remove them in the default.skin file or skin over them...

[Jackar]

I was curious about it too, so I took a look at the NPCS.CFG file and noticed that it is the "Jan" model that has parts removed. Is there a way to duplicate this in MP? Maybe thru the one of the animation.cfg or model files?

 

See below...

I glanced at the animation file and it doesn't seem like it can go there. Probably the only way to duplicate it in MP would be to edit the model directly. Obivously, that is not possible at this point. Hopefully someone will figure another way to do it.

[Twinstar02]

Sorry to take this slightly off topic, but in that snippet from the npcs.cfg file, If i change the dismemberProbHead/leg/waist values from 0 to say 5 or probably any non zero value that I can start chopping my enemies in half etc?

 

Im sick of just arms and hands flying off! lol

 

cheers,

You probably could do that if you wanted. Or you could download the Dismemberment mod. But back on topic, I will do my best to try to find a way to get the JediF into MP.

[Sturmgewehr]

I've been trying, but I just can't get anything to work. I didn't think it would work, but I tried puting the surfoff stuff in the .skins, that made Jedi Knight II real mad. Everything else I've tried just didn't have any effect.

 

We probably do have to edit the model directly. Though it would be nice if we didn't have to.

[Kageboushi_Gen:]

How favorable do you think Raven would be to releasing some of the npc's (like JediF and Jedi2) for Multiplayer?

[Jackar]

I tried the surfoff and surfon in the .skin file aswell and it worked for the .tga files. The model was the same, but the texture was omitted. If there was only a way to do that with the model parts instead!

 

ie...

 

surfOff head_goggles,models/players/jan/accesories.tga

[Arco]

try adding "nodraw" in the .skin file for the mp version of the skin... just extract the files you need (textures) make it into a new character and type in "nodraw" next to the bits you don't the game to draw. For example in quake 3 doom has 2 arms... and in the .skin you can write nodraw instead of doom.tga or whatever and then you have a doom with only one arm. I think it might work like that in jk2 as well.

[AgentAdam002]

I tried sending a pm to one of the guys at Raven, but his pm box was full and it wouldn't send

Don't ask me why but I tried putting the surfOff stuff in my skin's .bot file...needless to say, it didn't work.

 

 

Edit:

Great idea Arco. I'll go try that.

[AgentAdam002]

It works! Typing nodraw instead of the filename works! Example:

 

change this:

head_face,models/players/Mara/face.tga

 

to this:

head_face,nodraw

 

Not that I took the face away or anything....although it would be interesting

 

Thanks Arco for solving the problem.

[Danica]

omg!! I can do so many cool skins now!! THANK YOUU!!!!!!!

[Jackar]

Fantastic, thank you!

[AgentAdam002]

I found a slight problem with this, though. Try removing the belt and chaps from Jan....It creates a big, gapping whole at her hips. Oh well. Guess you can't have it all.

 

 

Edit:

 

Removing Jan's vest creates the same effect, only it's her chest that's removed.

[Arco]

yes but it works for some things, just like in q3. Simple and easy... ey ey!
