Boba Fet, Obi Wan, Darth maul, Samuel Jackson- Can we PUH-LEASE for the love of god get some decent downloadable skins for this game? Look, I have no artistic ability, so I know i couldnt do a better job than the skins that have been released so far- but the fact is I had star wars skins for quake 3 arena that were 100 times better than anything released for this game. All I've seen is, frankly, lame reskins that are not up to par. I know there is some talented moders out there that could do some good work if they put their mind to it!

You won't see any really cool things until the dev tools are released. You can't make Vader or Fett for crap with skins only because the helmet texture would be mapped to a human head shape. Be patient, this game has a lot of buzz, and it's freaking Star Wars. There's gonna be a ton of stuff in the weeks/months to come.

The game has been out for two weeks and you want people to produce high quality skins with unsupported tools? You sir, are a troll because this thread is not even thought out from a skinners point of view.

:biggs:

 

what about Valk? that skin is amazing IMO, and very underappreciated

apparently all my skins are crap then lol. you guys that complain are retarded. no matter how many times we skinners tell you that we cant make new models yet, it just doesnt seem to sink in. "lame reskins"? wtf else do we have to work with? we're the ones that are devoting our time to expanding this gaming community. we're the ones contributing, you're the ones sitting on your ass saying 'gimme gimme'. im geting pretty sick of this lack of appreciation for what we're doing. there have been some excellent skins released.

Thanks for clearing that up Absath. I decided to give up skinning. I was liking my classic Jedi skin, but I really see no reason to continue. There really are already so many skins out there and I'm satisfied for now just using the default skins. I have the skills but no motivation to make skins anymore. It was cool at first. Anyways, if somebody desperately wanted a skin I suppose I could make it for them...but otherwise don't look for any more skins from me.

Ya know what gets my goat, is that every where I go I see people talking about this or that skin which only has some small changes to them, borrowing of textures, or looks like they skined it in painbrush or paintshop pro. But no one talks about my skin ;)!!

 

 

*crawls in into a dark corner*

 

I just want to be loved :D!

You know who's skins are really great? That Graphicsgod's. Those Luke Skywalker skins he did were great.

 

 

Oh! I didn't even see your post, Graphicsgod... uh... :)

 

In all seriousness, all the skins I've seen have been great. Asbath, Graphicsgod, Foxbatkllr, everybody's skins have been great.icon14.gif

 

I don't understand how someone who admits they have no skill in skinning, can demand that others produce what they consider to be high quality skins. If I had anyway of doing it, they would be prohibitted from ever downloading skins again. Just my opinion, though].

Lol, my post was ment mainly as a joke. So don't take anything I say seriously.

 

So far I've only seen a few good skins. I like the Rodan skin, the maul skin aint bad, and I think theres one more. But don't let anyone stop you from skinning, if you have an idea for a skin, by all means go for it! The more the better, I always say.

 

Currently working on some more Luke skins. Also thought about doing a DF Kyle skin.
