Eldritch Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Originally posted by inbredyokel You know...as long as you've got the body, texture, and the robe, it wouldn't be too difficult to modify this model to make a Coleman Trebor or Sasaee Tiin(difficult being a relative term of course). That certainly would beat doing another episode 1 obi or ep II anakin. You'd have to modify it QUITE a bit to get it to look like Anakin. He's much skinnier and has a unique getup - plus his robe isn't really a robe... it's more like a cape. I get your point, but just sticking different heads on the same body robs the characters of their individuality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inbredyokel Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 I understand that, and I'm not suggesting just switching heads. I'm just saying that there's a base there that could be modified to suite many different jedi. Of course the bodies and textures would have to be altered, but it wouldn't be quite as much work as someone starting from scratch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Chrono_MOT- Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 What we need are Generic Jedi, Generic Padawans, and Generic Jedi trainers to replace the crappy flat ones in-game. That would rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inbredyokel Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Yes, it would. I keep lobbying for generic male and female jedi with multiple toggleable surfaces but no one has taken up the project yet(can't say I blame them). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PalnGipanji Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Hmm... maybe a "workfile" of several different surfaces would work. However... I think it might take away from the originality of a character to have premade pieces fit to a certain character scheme. I think the main goal is probably to get out the heroes/villians... all the recognizable people in the kind of detail that makes you recognize them in-game. I don't see how anyone could go "ooh, I should model Generic Jedi!... wow, looks just like him!" It would be a great idea, for sure... even to have a base for those who would like to have skin variants. But I don't see that happening for quite a while. Not until these big projects are complete. Arco... how do you sleep at night? Very intimidating skin! I agree with Anakin_S that it feels wrong, but not sure why. I guess it's because we're all used to the good, strong, firm Mace, and not the painless psychotic killer Mace. I think it's great to have such different and creative interpretations of a character representation. Got any pics of the entire body? Also, Toonces, did you try anything else with the robe yet? Just wondering, since I haven't noticed any updates about that lately. Great work, everyone!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eklin Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 I had my doubts when I heard that this model was being made. I was a big fan of Klorel's Mace Windu (still am. I just wish it'd get done). I didn't think that anybody could come as close. But I have to admit that I'm impressed. I mean, this screenshot http://www.planetquake.com/polycount/cottages/genq3/mace-newtorso.jpg looks spectacular! Just wondering, though. What are those little colored bars on his belt for? hehe. whenever I look at them I hear a long *beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep* in my head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're supposed to be silver and bronze/gold hues, but Arco just decided to make them in a variety of colors for whatever reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysticSpade Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 http://www.planetquake.com/polycount/cottages/genq3/mace-newtorso.jpg i think this pic is pretty done looking to me. is there anyway you can post a screenie of the robed version of him. or will it take some time. i don't need to see it i just want to. cuz i like the robed models more. it gives them more of a jedi feel to 'em. but the robeless mace is dead on in my eyes.

Mex Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 That red one looks evil, If only i knew how to model I would make flanders, (That WOULD be fun) I'm going to use the ghost one, and I think this model is spot on, ive never seen mace look so good, (in a game) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonces Posted October 29, 2002 Author Share Posted October 29, 2002 Originally posted by Hellfire Jedi I would guess this awesome model would be out wensday heh, I wish, I gotta fix the robe still, I'm not sure how long that will take me, hopefully not too long. I have been insanely busy over the last couple days so I haven't had any real time to invest in the models, I have some time to work today though so we'll see what all I can do I really love the red skin, it looks awesome in game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellfire Jedi Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 im such a dip i guessed that because arco said it will be out this week hehe to many awesome models people are lettting me beta test i get to happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonces Posted October 29, 2002 Author Share Posted October 29, 2002 Could be this week, depends on how much time I have to finish up the rigging, just definatly not tommorow, not a chance I'm not going to rush him like I did Palp or Kit though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteShdw Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 I love the default skin. The likeness is awesome. Could you give us some in game screenies Toonces? Maybe some using cutscenes, like you did with your Kit model. I can't remember if this has been discussed but who is doing the sounds on this one? Are they gonna be strictly Star Wars quotes or are you guys gonna use some lines from other movies? Keep up the good work, guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Loki Posted October 29, 2002 Share Posted October 29, 2002 Hmmm. you rushed Kit and Palp? If that's your rushed work, I can't wait to see the work you did on modles you took your time on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonces Posted October 29, 2002 Author Share Posted October 29, 2002 heh, by rushed I meant bugs and stuff. Palp wasn't really as much as a rush job as Kit was, with Kit when I got near the end I wanted to remodel parts of his body and make a bunch of changes, but I guess when I say I rushed it I just mean I didn't take as much time as I should have to identify all the problems, I missed a few little ones WhiteShdw, I'll get ya some cutscene pics, I have only tried him once in single player but all looks good now so I'll go ahead and get some for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
