morphius_doh Posted September 6, 2002 Posted September 6, 2002 My vote is for tga. Looking forward to seeing those screenies tonight, Terc!
-Tercero- Posted September 6, 2002 Author Posted September 6, 2002 I think that I'm going to just go with .tga files. It would be a shame to lose some of the detail that I'm putting into this skin. The shaders will be .jpegs, though, because they won't need to be as sharp. I hesitate to release a .tga and a .jpg version because I don't want to cause compatibility issues when playing online... I learned that lesson when I released three different versions of my sabers within a month. Speaking of my sabers, I'm going to release a final version along with Anakin - they'll have some new features when used with Tchouky's saber mod - it should make customization even easier.
fat_101 Posted September 6, 2002 Posted September 6, 2002 wow fantastic model and now we get a saber with it , aswell as it being easier to customize.. -tercero- just keeps on giving any thought on the taunts u r going to use (sorry if i missed it) FATTEH
Andy867 Posted September 6, 2002 Posted September 6, 2002 Isn't Deetox or someone like that taking care of the taunts and misc sounds? cuz i know one guy said he got a bootlegg copy of the movie, and it had perfect sound rips or something like that. Keep up the good work Tercero, and Toonces, and sound person:)
-Tercero- Posted September 7, 2002 Author Posted September 7, 2002 It is Deetox187 who did the soundpack - he just sent me an updated pack last night - I'm going to try and clean it up a bit more, but it already sounds spectacular - he has a ton of taunts - you will be very pleased...
Deetox187 Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 Yeah i went kinda nuts with the taunts, like i told Tercero i don't know what got into me but after watching the movie again i came up with a bunch more useful taunt lines that i hadn't thought of before. The dvd even has a couple new lines in the "i killed the tuskens" scene which was a pleasant suprise. Anyway i sent Tercero a total of 14 taunts, 12 of which can be used because thats the Jedimod limit. Tercero i am curious what program do you use to clean up the background noise? i use Cooledit and it seems to do a piss poor job of that, either that or i'm doing something wrong. I hear good things about Soundforge, is that what you use?
-Tercero- Posted September 7, 2002 Author Posted September 7, 2002 I have access to a computer at a television studio with a linear editing machine - I might be able to do something with that...
-Tercero- Posted September 7, 2002 Author Posted September 7, 2002 Woohoo - after many agonizing hours of lining up UV's and repainting my texture, I finally have the hair bearing some resemblence to, well... hair! Take a look! http://www.geocities.com/tercero_bootleg/Anakin-Hair1.txt or, if geocities is being lame again, try this one... http://www.geocities.com/anakin_tercero/Anakin-Hair1.txt I still have to do the braid and tail - I know the braid looks funky too - I have to realign it... I'm also going to rework the textures for the robes - they look a little to cartoony for me - I think that I can get them looking a bit more realistic... Tell me what you think!

Wow thats pretty cool.. i bet they got some real high tech equipment there, screw soundforge lol. About your sabers, are you still trying to make them look more like the sabers from Ep2? i'd be happy to take some high quality screenshots from this dvdrip if you want, they might serve as better ref pics then whats available to you now. I'm sure i could also get some good screens of the V shaped saberswing trails if you want to make those more accurate. let me know if that interests you or not. nice new screen btw, the hair looks fabulous.
icepool Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 I think that hair looks perfect now! Great Job!!! Cant wait to see some more.
-Tercero- Posted September 7, 2002 Author Posted September 7, 2002 Deetox, anything that you can give me to make anything look better is greatly appreciated - send the screenies over! Thanks!
Deetox187 Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 Sure thing, for some reason the capture frame button isn't working on powerdvd so i'll have to find another program to use, but i'll have some for you soon.
-Tercero- Posted September 7, 2002 Author Posted September 7, 2002 Okies - I retouched taunt2 - got most of the static out and managed to cut the volume on the instrumentals in the background by a hair as well... wound up with a pretty clean sound... EDIT: LINKS DOWN damn geocities...
Grafox Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 Some little crits: -The head is to fat -The neck is to fat, make it slimmer.
Darth Vader III Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 -Tercero-! I think you've done a very good job. By the way, will you add Anakin's saber to the model? Keep up the good work Anakin and Darth Vader rock!
morphius_doh Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 Kick ass job! As far as the face being too fat: I've looked at the head shots from padawan.com and the head looks fine to me. Keep up the great work.

I saw that it was to fat because I was watching the coughdvdripcough of the movie at the same time.
<JOTD>Jedi Hunter Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 Hey Terc when our Forums get their Photo album up you're free to post your pictures(screenshots)there.
Eldritch Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 -Tercero-, I think the head/neck could use just a little minor adjusting. They are just a tad too thick. Here's a link to a picture that shows what I mean. http://cgi.theforce.net/theforce/multimedia/imageFolio.cgi?action=view&link=Images/Episode_2/Characters/Anakin_Skywalker&image=aotc-anakin_c3po.jpg&img=&tt= Keep up the good work.
keo718 Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 Yes, that is true. I didn't say anything because thats the best face you've made. But those adjustments wouldn't hurt.
FutureTrunks766 Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 Looking Great. Can't wait to get this one! the best i've seen.
niko9enzo Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 great work!! looking awesome!! still, i belive that the hair is too dark but its great anyway
JEDI_Nova Posted September 7, 2002 Posted September 7, 2002 I agree with JEDI_Anakin_S, the neck is a little too thick but otherwise its looking great!
