Renix Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 I know a lot of you want new models for Darth Maul but I made a skin anyway. Let me know what you think. Level/Patch Type: JK2:JO Level/Patch Name: Darth Maul Skin Author: Jonathan O'Dell Email: renix1138@aol.com Description: This is a Darth Maul skin. I made the face from a real picture. It has a custome icon and taunt as well as full bot support. NOTE: This is only the default skin. There is no red or blue skin. Download it here If you are having problems with the link just go to http://www.jediknightii.net and get it.
Delmar Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 you may want to "re-release" this skin with a different .pk3 filename since there is already a popular "darthmaul.pk3" skin that is being used on servers. UNLESS- how does the q3 engine work with these files? does it load all .pk3 files found in the base dir into cache and disregard filenames or does it match up filename to filename for the server/client connect?
Evan Nash Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 Considering how good this skin is, I think people would rather have this one over the other one. Also, the horns showup REALLY good in the game. The screenshot doesn't do it justice. One thing I would suggest tho...in game, call the skin "Darth Maul", not "Darth_Maul" Best skin out so far.
Renix Posted April 9, 2002 Author Posted April 9, 2002 I didn't know that. But I'll look into to changing the name. I wonder if I will need to put it under a different directory name too... Thanks, Jonathan
Delmar Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 or better yet: "renix_darthmaul.pk3" - something that identifies you as the author and will save you the guaranteed future hassle of it being bumped by someone else's model. i agree with evan, it's a sharp skin- but most people would rather have a choice than be forced to choose a specific skin.
Evan Nash Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 I don't think a lot of people like their files named after the models. Think about it tho.. Once the new tools come out, others will make new Maul skins...Expect a dozen new ones.. But this is definately the best skin out there.
Renix Posted April 9, 2002 Author Posted April 9, 2002 Great point. I think I start calling them something unique. Thanks, Jonathan
Tems Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 in quake it takes the pk3 files alphabetically and whichever occurs later in the alphabet gets used. so if you have darthmaul.pk3 and maul.pk3, the maul.pk3 one will be used. -Tems
Evan Nash Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 He's right. Calling it after your name would be a better idea. renix_darth_maul.pk3
The8thSamurai Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 For red/blue support just make his face blue, if thats enough.
Evan Nash Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 Good idea.. For RED TEAM: Same face. For BLUE TEAM: Blue Face Easy.
Absath Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 a blue faced darth maul is gonna look pretty funky. personally i feel that red and blue tinted robes would look cooler. you can tint the robes yet still keep them looking dark. besides, it would be cool to have darth maul in crimson dress as well as his black standard.
rancid Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 I think its really cool. Its on my harddrive ! 1 thinkk, I think the red is to bright. if you toned down the ultra violet red the yellow eyes would come out better. Randy
INFERNO2K Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 Question: Why the hell is the back of his head black? It should be red all around. The red is too bright tone it down one notch. Overall great mod.
Evan Nash Posted April 9, 2002 Posted April 9, 2002 It's not supposed to be red all the way around you moron. He has it right. Get a clue.

Take a look at the movie or any picture of him on the net that shows the back or the side of his head.
Evan Nash Posted April 10, 2002 Posted April 10, 2002 Exactly. I love it when people say things when they have no idea what they're talking about. I don't know what movie HE was watching.
INFERNO2K Posted April 10, 2002 Posted April 10, 2002 Aha never knew that. Did my research and found success. Thanks.
