delquar Posted June 11, 2002 Share Posted June 11, 2002 well. ya think you could do a small mod of it for me? i am having fun and turning the sabers into swords. only thing i can't get rid of, is the glow on the ground, i cant figure out how to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth-Nasty Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 I also noticed that the bots double sabers dont work when the map switches after a vote or a reached limit. As you did such a fine job with this mod i was wondering if you could answer a question of mine. At the moment it is not possible to have different saber models running in the same game however would it be possible to create an in game menu (simmilar to the one for your mod) which would allow you to select your model out of ones you have in a "saber model" folder, then have your selected model pk3 file moved into the "base" folder? Next time you select a different model the mod will remove your previous saber pk3 file from the base folder, put it back in the "saber model" folder and replace it with your new choice. I think this would be a great mod and it seems like quite a simple idea but i dont have a clue about how to go about making it. I dont spose you could tell me how or better still make it yourself and incorporate it into your next version of your mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tchouky Posted June 13, 2002 Author Share Posted June 13, 2002 i m trying to change the saber handles in game but it s realy hard cause it s the server which set the models to display .... btw that's strange for the map change or vote . Are you sure ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth-Nasty Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 I'm positive about the map change: just tried ffa on bespinstreets (doublesabersok) and then voted to change the map to the death star and after the change desann had decided not no utilise the full power of his dual lightsaber About the mod idea I was thinking more of a file moving system for people who play offline against bots or maybe those who play on a LAN with people who have access to the same files rather than a mod to send the models to a server. Is this possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delquar Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 someone else has started making a hilt mod to let you choose your hilt, but it will be allot slower cause there isn't already a selection, saber colors were easier, cause there was the ability to cange them already. just have some patience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(no offense) the selection of the saber or the hilt is done in the user interface and the menu are very easy to create you can really easily create a hilt selector ! (the menus are done with scripting open a .menu file for example...not with the code) the problem is not here at all ! the problem is deeper in the code , being able to select wich saber is being drawn for each clients! you must comunicate the hilt model between the server and the client . you must check if the client has the model and if not change it to the default one ..... etc there are many things to change ! btw can you give me the mail adress or the nick name of that guy trying to make a hilt mod ! thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only want to make an offline model selecter to avoid the "server/client communication problems" So how would i make a in game menu which can move files between the base folder and another folder? are there any programs or anything which can help make menus?

k3po Posted June 15, 2002 Share Posted June 15, 2002 AWESOME!!! just how do i enable double blades on my own sabre? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[FF]Icewalker Posted June 16, 2002 Share Posted June 16, 2002 THIS IS WHY I HATE USING MODS !!!!!!!!!! I was on my server with the mod on and i was fighting some bots and when i tryed to spin when i did backslash i couldnt !!! now before i thought this was only in some saber mods because the creator thought that the move was cheap so he stoped it but now i realize its not some mods its all of em !!! now if its just me and no one else plz stop me from going on.....but if it isnt then plz make the mod without this "problem", other than that i LOVE your mod. I think its the best saber mod out there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tchouky Posted June 17, 2002 Author Share Posted June 17, 2002 new version here Nothing really new : bug correction : bots have their double saber after a map change or in duel after the first round .... addition : New extendable blade like corran horn's or gantorris' ones. new cvar : g_enableextended 1 or 0 . if you want an extended blade then bind a key to tck_dualphase like this : bind h tck_dualphase by default it s bound to k. dezip it in the gamedata folder as usual. i ll update the source code tomorrow .... have fun! btw if you have the new maul model you might want to download this and extract it in your tck directory.

delquar Posted June 17, 2002 Share Posted June 17, 2002 the guy who is working on it mentioned it earlier in this, page 1, i forget the name right now. and it is a bit more complicated than the saber blades cause the game was setup already to handle different ones of them, the hilts were in the code as all the same file. i just wored it wrong, what i ment is it would be a bit harder for the guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth-Nasty Posted June 17, 2002 Share Posted June 17, 2002 As youve managed to unlock the dual saber in MP without cheats could you try and get the 2 hidden stances into multiplayer without cheats as well?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garik Loran Posted June 17, 2002 Share Posted June 17, 2002 Tchouky, you are a genious. For those of you who don't know what I am talking about, look at this: The expandable blade is superb. I wrote a script that changes the white blade to purple when the second phase is activated. Like Corran's saber. But I need the source code, so I can add my white saber or add your work to my small mod. Hope you still make this open source. Thanx for this amazing mod.

striderx2048 Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 bug, the jedi option for jedivmerc isnt show up in player menu and your readme left all the commmands and cvar info out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tchouky Posted June 18, 2002 Author Share Posted June 18, 2002 that s done . you only need to redownload the game.zip and the cgame.zip cause the ui didn't change. i ll add the extended button in the menu next time for all of you who can't bind a key i ll check for the jedi vers mercs bug. and i l create a small file with the console commands and cvar. here it is : tck_saberred x tck_sabergreen x tck_saberblue x rgb values of you saber. (you can use the menu). tck_dualphase is a command to toggle your extended blade. so you must bind it to a key. like this bind g tck_dualphase tck_saber 1 or 0 controls if you want or no to display the custom sabers. and server variables g_enableextended 1 or 0 => enables extended sabers. g_enabledoublesaber 1 or 0 => enables the double bladed sabers to clients. g_botdoublesaber 1 or 0 => double saber for the bots. AND DON'T USE THESE CVARS ui_saberred ui_sabergreen ui_saberblue. if you do it will just change the color in the menu and will not be updated until you gi inside the menu. tck_extended is used by the game and automatically set by the tck_dualphase command.

Darth-Nasty Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 are the extra stances with no cheats a possibility then???? it would be great if the one handed stance was avialable for when the new dooku model is released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tchouky Posted June 18, 2002 Author Share Posted June 18, 2002 wel you can edit the bots.txt or the scripts/name_of_the_bot.bot can't you ?? you can add tck_doublesaber 1 or tck_extended 1 in the bot definition. what you want is a cvar like bot_spawns_with_db_saber 1 or 0 ? so the next bot will automaticaly have a double bladed saber ? well that's really easy to do.... i ll probably do it tomorow.

Tchouky Posted June 19, 2002 Author Share Posted June 19, 2002 I ve created cvar, and communication between server and clients to add a second color. So now you can have a double bladed saber with diferent color blades and it s also the color of your extended saber (there is a fading effect....) ie if your saber n°1 color is blue and the second is red when you extended the blade of your saber,when the saber is growing it will be blue->blue purle-> purple->red purlpe -> red .. it s quite cool actually.. (you don't need any script now Garik ) i have some more things to code but everything is working i ll maybe post screenshots... and i still have to create a menu..

Garik Loran Posted June 19, 2002 Share Posted June 19, 2002 Why he can do such things and I can't??? Hey, I love all the changes you do. And that you mod is open source is the best about it. Y'know I am still learning this, and your code is a good point to start. Hope you have the time to help me when I don't get something to work (you got my e-mail ?!). I can only tell this again: Modeling and skinning is cool. Coding is even cooler. and you are the coding god. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tchouky Posted June 19, 2002 Author Share Posted June 19, 2002 i m still learning too. I started coding like 2 years ago. But i really want to do these changes so i try, i miss, and try again! and in the end you have something cool. I m far from being a coding god ! but thx ! and for the e-mail i got the one with the sabers. they are great but not perfect ! just a little short but i can manage this... i think you will like the new fading effect when you extend your blade i worked hard on it. (it match exactly the blade's expansion time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
