bpc3617 Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 I've read a lot about this, but haven't found a good answer yet. Can someone give a concise answer about how to create custom saber colors? ie: which files to manipulate, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital_Ronin Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 Read my post "Yesss! A cyan lightsaber" http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=40568 I list the way it's done there... if that isn't enough for you, drop me a line.

obijonkenobi Posted April 9, 2002 Share Posted April 9, 2002 That takes a lot of effort to do. Perhaps you could make a quick(ish) dollar from die-hard idiots and charge people to make them customised sabres to their exact desires? I am sure some people would as their are stupid idiots buying diablo 2 items on ebay. One of the many certaincies in life is no matter how stupid an idea is - someone will pay for it. You can be the very first real-life lightsabre dealer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital_Ronin Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 first real-life lightsaber dealer... I wish I was... But I wouldn't even be close to being the first... http://www.parksabers.com/ http://www.lightsaberreplicas.com/Purchasing.html and so on... *g* Digital_Ronin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n0th1ng Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 what about a.....BLACK sabre? anyone who's made that yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S!TH!NAT0R Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 I'm sure a Saber-Mod(loads of colors,duel-saber,curved-saber,wielding 2 sabers) will be coming out very shortly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waar Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 I was hoping there would be a feature to make your own custom saber color in-game and others will also see it, sort of like banner in subspace and infantry. I personally see no point in custom models and saber colors if others can't see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 I personally see no point in custom models and saber colors if others can't see them. Which is why we have the "allow downloading" option on servers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital_Ronin Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 @Kurgan : Agreed and @ sithinator: I wouldn't be too sure about that saber-mod arriving anytime soon. I really dug into the workings of the engine around the lightsabers and this is one hell of a mess. If it was thoroughly sufficient to just replace some textures like I did, then it would be quite easy to make a mod, but the mean thing is that there are more aspects - I didn't choose 'cyan' out of pure whim... there is practically NO way of controlling a saber's trail color and floor glow. The default trail of the blue saber that I replaced hides this pretty good and matches the cyan, but for any other color... hard try. The engine mechanics that are steering this are so well-hidden in one of the several game-dlls that I doubt anyone finding them by chance. I didn't as well, but there is simply no other spot they can be, they MUST be somewhere in there. I'd LOVE to see such a mod, but I sure haven't got the slightest idea how that should work.

jedialphaknight Posted April 10, 2002 Share Posted April 10, 2002 yeah hey guys...........a BLACK saber is impossible since its a LIGHT saber...LIGHT black is the ABSENCE of light...it would NOT work out y0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will others be able to see it in multiplayer? please answer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The closest to a black lightsabre you could get would be a blacklight I guess... But that is not really black... more of an extreamly dark purple...
