Norin Radd Posted June 16, 2002 Share Posted June 16, 2002 Was anyone making Obi Wan's saber from Episode 2? There was one released, but it was far too big, and the blade came out of the wrong end. Is anyone else making this model? I'll provide the photos, if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Shawn Posted June 16, 2002 Share Posted June 16, 2002 I might, I am a HUGE fan of Obi-Wan and really liked it when someone made an Obi-Wan saber, might try my luck with this soon cause that one was a wee to thick. -[JO]Master Shawn Kenobi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocketman Posted June 16, 2002 Share Posted June 16, 2002 yeah i'd love to see a remake, the other was just too big and it was held weird in game. if you do make it make sure the textures look good from first person view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Shawn Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 Heres a pic from within Gmax of my WIP Obi-Wan Kenobi AOTC Lighsabre Hilt, how does it look, and the really detailed parts(like the grips grooves and so on) will be made into the texture so we dont have a polygon count over 13000 compare that with this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Shawn Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 Im still going to finish the model, I want to see how good I can make it, mabey I can get it even better than yours P.S. - Show a little respect, dont come in here and brag about your hilt pack in front of my face.

Norin Radd Posted June 18, 2002 Author Share Posted June 18, 2002 By all means Shawn, finish it. I look forward to your completed model. Couldn't hurt to have two in the community:p . Looking great so far. Keep up the good work. After all, you want to do honor to your uncle's name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norin Radd Posted June 18, 2002 Author Share Posted June 18, 2002 Power-Line, actually, the Obi-Wan Epsiode 2 saber in your pack, is the one I mention in the opening post. Thanks, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocketman Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 shawn, one thing. there seems to be this thing where when you activate custom sabers your hands slide way down the hilt, making it look like your gripping it way too far down, so maybe if you have his default unactivated grip of the saber in his hand higher on the saber it will be held right when activated. has anyone else noticed this?

UseTheForce Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 Yeah, I have. It's rather annoying to see him holding it with the top hand in the middle, leaving a bit of the saber unheld, and have half of his bottom hand holding nothing, as he is out of handle.

Master Shawn Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 I've noticed it, ill put the tag at diff levels and see which works best. just FYI I am going to start the Power Cell Reserve Cap as soon as im done eating supper, I should have a pretty well completed model by tonight, ill post multiple views so you can see it all the way around I also need some skinner and UVW Mapping volunteers because I know form experience that I cant do it at all, any and all help will be GREATLY appreciated.

I was wondering about that, Rocketman, thanks for confirming it. When I use Anakin's saber, I noticed that, but I assumed it was because Anakin's saber, as we all know, was short, compared to other sabers. Thanks for clearing that up.

Master Shawn Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 Ep I and Ep II Obi-Wan hilts are NOT the same. And, for reasons stated above, we dont like that other one because of its dimensions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtrixman Posted June 18, 2002 Share Posted June 18, 2002 thank god your remaking it. i loved the old saber but its size totally ruined it. great job man keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1mcgrady1 Posted June 19, 2002 Share Posted June 19, 2002 Master Shawn Kenobi, nice to see you here. Ur model is fantastic, please hurry and finish it, cos i can't stand the lightsaber of your cousin's being sooo THICK! Its a bit disgusting, though. Anyway, as i've told u b4, ur really gd at modelling, hope u'll find a skinner soon, ( i would like to be, but i don't noe how: can't even import kyle's saber into gmax. After finishing the model, please send it toone of the greatest fans of obi-wan kenobi like u (me,please) at mcgrady1@lycosasia.com Thanks alot, pal.

Master Shawn Posted June 19, 2002 Share Posted June 19, 2002 Sure, ill send it, stil need some help with the UVWMapping and all, I can UVWMap it myself, but after that I cant ever seem to be able to pull the shapes apart from the map to make the skin template, if someone could do that for me that i'd be pretty well set for the skin, I can attempt it using actual pics of the saber complements of Darth Odisse. Anyone thats interested in pulling apart the shapes in the map (someone with a good ammount of experience) PLZZZZ reply, I cant finish the model without this help.
