<JOTD>Jedi Hunter Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 It's all well and good that you did that already but try not to let your head get too big. Afterall, it doesn't take that much to edit wavs. Just keep that in mind before you get all high and mighty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deetox187 Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 What? holy crap i am not trying to be "high and mighty", editing sounds IS easy but since they are already done i don't see the point in someone wasting their time doing the same ones, do you? You guys can go ahead and make all the sounds you want i could care less, but you should at least try to find some that haven't been done yet thats all i'm saying.

-Tercero- Posted August 21, 2002 Author Share Posted August 21, 2002 Please stop fighting. The way that I see it, everyone has a different take on everything. Let me tell you a little story... Two artists were sat down a table and an apple was placed between them. Each artist was told to draw what the other one saw. When they finished their pictures they were instructed to show eachother what they had drawn. When the pictures were revealed, both artists looked at eachother in bewilderment. One had drawn a ripe, appetizing apple, and the other had drawn a rotten, disgusting one. What the artists didn't realize was that each one was looking at a different side of the same apple. Half of the apple was rotted away, but the other side was shiny and new. Both had drawn what they thought that the other was seeing based on their own perceptions, not realizing that they weren't seeing the same thing at all. You see, no two works are the same. Each has it's own merits and downfalls. Before you criticize the work, or merit thereof, of another, try to learn from it - draw from their strengths. I started my Anakin model while I knew there was another work in progress. I didn't start it because I thought mine would be better - I started it because I thought it would be different. I would have a different take on it than everyone else, so while an Anakin model was being made, my Anakin wasn't. Likewise, I am very anxious to see the model that Vahl is working on released. I guess I'm just saying that we shouldn't cause a fuss over someone doing what has been done before. In a way, that's exactly what this model is. It's not the first of it's kind, and I definitley hope that it will not be the last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deetox187 Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Alright then i respect your opinion Tercero, post up as many sounds as you want guys i won't say anything more about it. Maybe they will sound better/different than mine even if they are the same clips, though i still highly doubt that since we all appear to have the same audio sources in the first place. but by all means, knock your socks off.

I was wrong to think nobody could do any better than me because i don't know that for sure, afterall we want this model to sound as good as possible.

§ith Lord Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 First off let me say kudos to Toonces for getting this sucker weighed down properly (btw Toonces if you want to send me the new palp model with sounds and new shader, I would love to see him ingame) Now as for the Taunts....JediMod allows you to create many taunts. why not have everyone who wants to create a bunch of high quality taunts and and contribute to this awesome project and Tercero....what can I say. You're good at what you do and you seem to love what you do... keep up the great work..maybe Raven could use a good modeller/skinner like you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anakin doesn't have too many lines in the movie that are suitable for taunts (i listened to all his lines carefully). BUT that doesn't mean someone else couldn't come up with something i missed or didn't think of. Or howbout this? maybe someone could rent Hayden Christensens other movies and see if they could pull some useful lines from those? not sure if his voice sounds the same or not but could be worth a try.

Lord Tnuc Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Here it is...boomspeed finally let me log in and I got the pic posted. Here's your friendly neighborhood homemade(by who? I can't remember) sith Anakin. (with a lightsaber blade which I just had to edit over...i edited over every lightsaber blade which I had a pic of...I got sick of seeing standard solid colored ones.) http://www.boomspeed.com/lordtnuc/SithAnakin.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReIIiK Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 I was thinking of the Anakin model when I realised is it possible to model his lightsaber on his belt, and then have it 'Disapear' when you activate it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Tercero- Posted August 21, 2002 Author Share Posted August 21, 2002 That sith anakin does look pretty cool - I could probably make it without too much difficulty with the cloak that I'm going to make and a bit of reskinning. As far as the disappearing lightsaber model - that would be really sweet, but I don't know if it could be done within the game's engine. Oh, Toonces - I couldn't get the .glm to load, but I'm almost certain that it's something on my end... I'll try and figure it out sometime today.

monsoontide Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 There's a really cool Sith Anakin in the Art Of Ep2 Book where he's Sooooo evil that he wear an all white outfit (Inspired by Laurence of Arabia the caption said). I think there were some other interesting variations in there - possible skin pack? Monsoontide. On a side note SunBurN is working on a map of the 'Last Duel' area between Obi and Ani for Ep3 - Lots of Lava and stuff - inspired by Ralph McQuarries original artwork for the Emperor's throne room - Might be a suitable place for the Anakin model to battle... Now if only there was a decent Obi model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Tnuc Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Perhaps this one is going to be much like the Battle Of Geonosis Padme? The one with cape...no tear on her shirt...and then the other with the tear, and no cape? When I say this, I mean will the black clad Anakin be a seperate model or will it be something like the Cheshire_Vader, where you type something in and boom.

<JOTD>Jedi Hunter Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Yeah Monsoontide. That actually sounds like a good skinpack. Maybe include some screens of the picture. So we can get an idea of what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Tnuc Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Hmm..Jessman, you talked about your DC sounds...I'm very interested in those. If you have AIM, gimme an IM, or just e-mail me at theoddbaldguy@aol.com and I'll get in touch. I'm really curious as to what ya have. Anyway..on topic...I think this model and what comes from this model is turning out to be very...very kickass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsoontide Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 I would post some example pix, only I don't have the book (Waiting til a softcover version comes out) Monsoontide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
<JOTD>Jedi Hunter Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Yeah, you'll have to let me prepare a few sound clips. But I'll get a few to ya asap. And I agree, the model is very sweet. Just imagine the piles of skins that will be created with this one model. Should make the modeler get a feeling of satisfaction. I myself might make a few skins with this model.

-Tercero- Posted August 21, 2002 Author Share Posted August 21, 2002 Anakin should have more costumes than any character to date. So far in the plans are: Default - as seen for most of Episode II Robed - same as default, but wearing a robe Jedi Vestments - same as default, minus the leather tabbards Jedi Vestments Robed - same as above, but wearing a robe Thousand Moons - in his garb from the arrival on Tatooine Thousand Moons Robed - with the white poncho Black - same as the default, but with black robes instead of brown Black Robed - same as above, but wearing a black robe. Padawan - wearing colors similar to those worn at the end of Ep I *Tunic - wearing his tunic, like in the scene from Ep II with Padme *the tunic skin might take some extra modeling, so it'll probably be released at a later date. I plan to release the default the moment that it is finished, and then put everything else into a huge update when I finish all the additional skins. The initial release should still include the Black, Padawan, and Jedi Vestments skins, though! The rest will be released later, because I can't see people waiting on additional skins when the model's ready to print, but the three I just listed above are pretty much palette conversions, so they should go quickly.

-Tercero- Posted August 21, 2002 Author Share Posted August 21, 2002 Oh, almost forgot to mention (Jessman reminded me with his post) - I'll be releasing the work files when I get the model finalized so that people can start skinning before it's released. As far as his robes, I'm planning on including the skins that I'm doing the palette conversions from to help speed along the process. There'll also probably be flags in the finished product to turn the braid and tail on and off, so he should be pretty easy to work with! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy867 Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 what's weird is in SP you are able to make the saber "disappear" by clipping it to the belt py pushing - so I don't know if maybe you could talk to a coder to do that. because it is possible in-game in SP... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Tercero- Posted August 21, 2002 Author Share Posted August 21, 2002 That would be pretty cool... Would the saber on the belt match the one in hand if he had one besides his normal saber? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy867 Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 not sure, I am no coder myself, but you could talk to like NickR, he might be able to do it for ya (write the code to get the clipping saber code) for ya. Cause DEST is away at school, so he probably won't be able to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
<JOTD>Jedi Hunter Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 I wouldn't see why not. If it's the same directory it should be the same picture. Although it could just be a default model. But I doubt that. I believe it would be the same thing as changing your hilt. But that's just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
<JOTD>Jedi Hunter Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 Like when you change and then turn off your hilt. That would be what it would look like hitched at the waist. So I think it would be very possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
