Drafus Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I'd like to see the double edged lightsaber for sp mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vong Warmaster Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I'd like to see Count Duuku's saber and any of the sabers from the "Tales Of The Jedi" comic books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernst Röhm Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I would personaly love to see a curved handled saber hilt and a black beam. This may be "impossible" right now due to the SDK not being out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Bob Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 How about the bong saber from Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. With the smoke effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eets Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 The hilts are wicked hard! The main hilt image is split up as one graphic in like 10-20 different parts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyrit Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I don't know how possible this is, and I realize it's totally out of place in Star Wars, but I'd personally think it'd be cool to see a katana-shaped lightsaber...not the handle, but the "blade" itself. Then again, it probably wouldn't look right with the animations, since there's no real distinguishable edge to the lightsaber's blade, so to speak.

hyrit Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 http://www.quanonline.com/military/military_reference/japanese/sword3.html Off hand, this is the best I can find...not the most detailed, but I'm sure I'll either find another place with a better shot, or someone else will.

hyrit Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Just to be sure, the lightsaber blade is a sprite, not a model, right? I haven't poked around those files enough to know, but I'd imagine it is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrevisX9 Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 i got a cool one. how about a lightsaber thats either white or what ever suits it better and have electrical bolts coming off it, and when you slice somebody not only does it cut them they get electricuted too. heres another idea i dont know if this is in the real but it would be cool. A baseball bat type lightsaber, now it will still look like a lightsaber but when you hit someone it makes them fly really far in what ever direction they were sliced.

Lime-Light Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 A lightsaber that makes the guy fly across the room instead of slicing him......I think thats a coding job, and on top of that a job I hope no one ever undertakes. Is there something not cool about a colored blade of pure energy that slices though pretty much anything? Why would we need to change that?

sights0d Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I didn't think that they COULD have sprites in "true 3D" Aside from that, I recall that they mentioned somewhere in the game (conversation between two stormtroopers) that there was some kind of a sith weapon that looked like an axe. I realize that that is a huge coding/mod problem, but I think it would look awesome! K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinada423 Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I personally would love to see a saber that looks very similar to a katana from ancient japan. The handle of course would feature a sleek new design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyrit Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 A katana-style lightsaber would be so pointless in the SW universe though...well, except for show of course. I mean, the entire point of a katana is that it's lightweight, has a single edge, and is used for slashing...hell, a regular lightsaber has all that, and it doesn't even use an edge so to speak... And that conversation about the vibro axe was hilarious...at least I think it was a vibro axe. Then again, the Sith don't use vibro weapons that I know of...but they don't really use axes either, huh? I barely remember any of that conversation unfortunately... Still, the line "Man, you need some new friends" was classic. I guess if nothing else, you can make a Soul Reaver, like in the Legacy of Kain series. I mean, it's sorta the same thing. Big glowing(albeit curvy) death stick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toolboi Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 This is probably completley unfesable but I would LOVE to see a Nagatana, those japanese war spears with the curved sword blade on top. Those things rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyRaNis Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 What about having to lightsabers like Boc in JK1? That would be cool.... :saberr: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize that that is a huge coding/mod problem, but I think it would look awesome! K The blades themselves are made up of only two images x_line.jpg and x_glow2.jpg as far as i can tell. It just displays the blade and then the places one large glow2 at the bottom, and lots of smalls ones for the blade glow itself. The pictures are always facing you the same direction, no matter which way you see them from. And, since they are circles it always looks the same. I know mostly because i tried making a saber out of triangles and it only half worked. The triangles would always face me in the same direction, even when the blade was extended outward. If you were talking about hilts.....sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
