Evan Nash Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 I should mention, if it's Jango Fett, then you need to add 2 gun holsters around each of his legs. Check out the pics link I sent you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRiot Posted April 18, 2002 Author Share Posted April 18, 2002 Nice of you to come up with that issue Evan... Im thinking wether I should put those or not... The poly count is almost at the limit.. it's about 28xx polys... and if you looks closelly...none of the original models from JO have holsters for the guns... Im trully trying to decide if I should put them or not... im scalling pros vs cons. Some opinions are welcome of course. And I might be able to reduce the poly count still. As for Absath: Dude... I'm glad you did what you did... maybe we get a better sdk now that them raven dudes are testing it on your model. The original characters part you mentioned seems mighty interesting.. I'll be looking forward to seeing them. Thx for everything guyz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acer Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 First of all, great work, the model looks great and well made. I have an idea and perhaps someone already posted this but it would be cool if you could use Boba Fetts jump rockets, not only for the coolness but it also gives some cool strategis when using the model either in MP or as a bot. You could perhaps use the rockets instead of the level 3 force jump? thist would give the model a real reality feature. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheshireKat Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 2 things Blood Riot. I finnaly looked at a bunch of Jango Fett pics. Thanks for those lind too Evan. It appears that the Gun Holstes are a big part of Jango. I think if you look real hard you can find plent of places you could optimise. I know optimising sucks, but (in my opinion) the holstered guns are a big part of his character. It's really up to you, but this model is looking great, and it looks like alot of people want it so you make the choice. But you allready have him looking like Jango, so I'll just nudge that idea along. Nudge Nudge. As far as the rocket Pack Idea Acer brought up. Wheter I'm understanding Acer or not, you really couldn't add any stratagies by making them work, need a MOD for this, you can make them appear as if they are working. But this all depends on your animation. I'm not sure if you are going to animate this yourself, or just attatch him to the original animations (which seems to be the way to go with this game) Or if we will be able to attatch these models to thier Skeleton then Edit a couple of animations of out choice (which is what I'm hoping for). but it has been done before. The Brothers Grim made a Sweet Boba Fett for Q3a, and his rockets emit a flame when he jumps. All they did was add 4 polys for this to work too. Two on each exaust port of the Jetpack. Then they made a Flame shader and animated them to come out when he jumps. Very cool. In Jedi Outcast this would be even cooler, since you actually jump great heights. Here's their Website. http://www.mindlessgrafx.com/models.html Perhaps you could contact them for some info on this. They've seemingly always been happy to help the editing community. They have even animated a few Q3 models for people. So give it some thought, and get back to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthmaul774 Posted April 18, 2002 Share Posted April 18, 2002 One sugestion Blood. Don't forget the toe spikes if your gonna make boba but if your gonna transfer it into jango don't put the spikes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master6 Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 Actually, the 'Rebel' model has gun holsters, and greenish/greyish skins for it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRiot Posted April 19, 2002 Author Share Posted April 19, 2002 OK... the majority has spoken... This is my plan... After I get the model skinmapped... I'll save it to another file and do both jango and boba. I'll have to remove armor parts on the legs and add big pant pockets and maybe a piece of cloth hanging on the left shoulder. This is for Boba. For Jango I'll just add the holsters and spike his boots as sugested. Since the SDK is not released yet I dont really have any sort of rush to post it since it's useless right now. So I can still touch up a lot of things. Once again thx for the feedback. I'll try to make as best as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Nash Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 Take your time man. Don't rush the skin. As for the polycount, well, if you are running out of polys for the holsters, then just paint them on the legs. =) Don't rush the skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRiot Posted April 19, 2002 Author Share Posted April 19, 2002 Sure thing Nash... I want this to be good! I can make the holsters... no prob... I still have to reduce the polycount anyway just to make sure it doesnt push the game's envelope... besides...adding the holsters would only add up to 60 polys by my count... I would just extrude a bit of both legs and model the rest... so the only polys to be added would be the ones of the side of the extrude... nothing else. As for the skin... well skinmapping will definetly be a problem here... cuz I never skinmapped before and this model is sure challenging... the robed model will be much easier since it's got far less polys. Anyway.. I'll see what can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShodiKGian Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 First of all, I'd like to say good work! Three things have stand out to me though, one is that the torso doesn't seem to be long enough when compared to the legs. Another is that the waist/crotch area still doesn't appear fleshy enough. The other was about the helmet, but that has already been mentioned. Keep up the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Nash Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 Yeah Shod's kinda right. His torso is kinda short compares to his legs. Maybe reduce the length of his legs. Jango and Boba aren't really tall guys. Kinda stumpy looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRiot Posted April 19, 2002 Author Share Posted April 19, 2002 Good News for everybody... Thx to MessiahErebus I can now skin map...

PS: Special thx to MessiahErebus for teaching me to prepare the models for skinning. Thx a million dude. (now this is Modders united ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luuke Posted April 20, 2002 Share Posted April 20, 2002 what's this thread doing on page 3??? well, anything new on Boba/Jango Fett?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRiot Posted April 20, 2002 Author Share Posted April 20, 2002 Thx for the bump... the trheads grow old very fast nowadays I'm currently skinmapping the model And I'll perform a few changes so I can have both Boba and Jango. While skinmapping there's no really interesting progress for you to see. But when it's done it's should be impressive.... Even I am curious on how it will end up. Stay tunned in the next couple o' days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyRaNis Posted April 20, 2002 Share Posted April 20, 2002 Cool model! Maybe you can make some difference and make it look like Jango Fett after you have finished your model! = Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRiot Posted April 20, 2002 Author Share Posted April 20, 2002 That's the plan... doing both of them... with diferences between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valdarious Posted April 20, 2002 Share Posted April 20, 2002 If Janga is alot like Boba, (Boba is supposed to be Jangas Clone Right?) No, actualy Boba is his son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkErik Posted April 20, 2002 Share Posted April 20, 2002 Well, this is, after all, a SPOILER ******* Boba IS a clone of Jango, and sort of given to Jango in a early state of clonprogress. Just LIKE a son. But tadaaa, he IS his clone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L2.0 Posted April 21, 2002 Share Posted April 21, 2002 More spoilers: Apparently Janga get's Boba as part of his contract. The Geonosians get his DNA to base their new clone army on, and in exchange he gets Boba. There's more to it than that, but I won't spoiler-***** poor Blood's thread.

BloodRiot Posted April 21, 2002 Author Share Posted April 21, 2002 News Flash: *Fett Skinmapped* Well, I'm about to start the skinjob on Fett. I'm doing the Jango skin now.
