Pseudofun Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Hi, i want to make a Mara Jade skin for the Jan model, i did read somewhere about removing certain parts of jans model (vest, goggles etc) i was just wondering if it's as simple as extracting the files, and removing the lines in the model_default.skn file, i tried this and it didn;t work, if some expeirienced modelers out there could point out the correct commands it'd be a great help io just want to get rid of the jacket/vest thing and her goggles.. ta ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudofun Posted April 16, 2002 Author Share Posted April 16, 2002 i managed to remove the gogles by pointing to a texture that isn;t there, but when i remove the vest i just get a blank area...i know the torso texture is there, it's just been masked by the invisible vest skin.. any ideas? someone must know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRiot Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I dont know cuz I havent even tryed or looked into it... but maybe the vest texture is in the same tga file as the chest, and therefore when you point to a tga that isnt really there the chest goes with the vest... maybe assigning the chest to another tga. Just a thought that occured. hope it works cuz I'd like to see a good Mara Jade skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudofun Posted April 16, 2002 Author Share Posted April 16, 2002 when you view all the texture files, there is a texture called 'torso' which is just her underclothes (same colour as her arms) you can even see the shading work for her *ahem* bosoms..so there is a texture there, i'm just wondering if this texture is drawn under the 'vest' texture? i suppose i could just point the skin file to the torso texture and let it draw that instead of the vest one, but i want to get rid of the bulky vest i'm sure theres is some kind of no draw command i can put into the skin file, i just wanna know if i'm wrong, because if you can remove the goggles surely you can remove the vest...

Absath Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 you cant remove her vest, because the game wont draw the textures underneath the removed polygon. just gonna have to wait for a custom model Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyrit Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 I still don't remember where I found it, but I have a decent skin of Mara Jade that uses the Tavion model. Just so you know, the eyes aren't actually all white...in game they do show up. I'm just too lazy to unpack the referenced eyes, blah blah...

DarkScorpinox Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 No, someone posted a pic of Jan without the vest, i think you set the vest model to "transparent", although i don't know what this means or how to do it just yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigris Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Sometimes it is, some times it isn't.... Very strange behavior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedNight Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 Until we are able to edit the settings in the glm file there's no way to remove the vest from Jan in multiplayer, though you can in singleplayer by editing the npcs.cfg file. But this is what she would look like if we remove the vest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudofun Posted April 16, 2002 Author Share Posted April 16, 2002 i managed to do it in SP by editing the npcs.cfg shame it doesn;t apply to MP too.. oh well *waits for the SDK* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octavius Posted April 16, 2002 Share Posted April 16, 2002 By the way, the Tavion model can have the feathers turned off. So your Mara Jade model would look better if in your skin file you enter nodraw instead of pointing to a texture. I would wait until after you finish the entire skin though, because the editor gets very annoyed when it refreshes the textures of it says nodraw. I am using the same Tavion model for a new female character that has not been done yet. It is an existing StarWars character, and I figured I would cater to the few female players out there since there are not really much of a variety of female characters. Especially like this one. Look for it soon =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyrit Posted April 17, 2002 Share Posted April 17, 2002 Erm, I didn't make it, so it isn't "mine" so to speak. Also it's funny...in game when viewed from behind, the feathers don't show, but from the front they do. Dunno why or how, because I didn't do it.
