Lime-Light Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 Looks pretty cool, but its either way too fat or much too short. Either way, it wouldnt fit in the hands of a JK2 character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VampireHunterD Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 That's pretty damn cool dude. Just resize the handle a bit and you should have a great saber there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIo Koon Posted July 2, 2002 Author Share Posted July 2, 2002 heh...i know it is....i have no expereience in the JK2 modeling so gi me a break =OP...if someone wouldn't mind helping me get this in game id appreciate it...and yes i will resize the main hilt so it fits better... if someone wouldn't mind giving me a link to a Saber hilt for Gmax thats been in game and working fine so i can resize my model to fit that shape..i would GREATLY appreciate it BTW ty for the kind comments =O) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Chrono_MOT- Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 A good polycount for a saber is anywhere between 600-800 polys. The best have had low polycounts and excellent skins. The most detailed you should get is 1000. Never exceed 1000 vertices, or your saber will crash the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIo Koon Posted July 2, 2002 Author Share Posted July 2, 2002 ok..thankx Chrono =O)....i guess i should put more detail into it huh?...hmm.don't got alot to work with..lol...o well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIo Koon Posted July 2, 2002 Author Share Posted July 2, 2002 ok heres another update this pic is a polycount of 891 http://www.renegademods.info/users/SpartnII/DC891.jpg this pic is a polycount of 963 http://www.renegademods.info/users/SpartnII/DC963.jpg personally i think the 963 one looks better than 891...but i think 891 would function better in game BTW...if u don't see it..the only difference between the 2 is the amount of rings for the grip or would u like to see the one with no grip at 664 polycount http://www.renegademods.info/users/SpartnII/DC1.jpg or theres also this http://www.renegademods.info/users/SpartnII/DCindent1.jpg http://www.renegademods.info/users/SpartnII/DCindent2.jpg that adds 5 indents to the "opening" of the sabers tip PLZ post thoughts on this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SillyGoose Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 go with 891, the extra detail isnt worth the polys. Really you don't notice the difference between the 891 and 900+ unless your paying really close attention (which isn't going to happen in a duel or FFA match).

PIo Koon Posted July 2, 2002 Author Share Posted July 2, 2002 thankx sillygoose..also take a look...i added another version of it with those others since your probly right that 891 would be better...i might make the "rings" wider so it takes up more space giving it a better look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIo Koon Posted July 2, 2002 Author Share Posted July 2, 2002 ok check out 891..how does that look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIo Koon Posted July 2, 2002 Author Share Posted July 2, 2002 well i will stop posting here for a while because i feel im being annoying...and i really don't wanna do that =O\ so Chrono would u mind seeing if u could get this in game and maybe skin it?...i used Gmax though so i dunno if u can and don't worry...if u even try and get it in game and somehow fail i'll still include u in the readme =O)...so if u wouldn't mind trying to get it in game and skin it that would be greatly appreciated or if anyone else wants to skin it or get it in game i'll apreciate that to =OD...and u'll be in the readme so don't worry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
