t3rr0r Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 Originally posted by Archonon An Ep.3 version would be cool, but hopefully left for after the release of Ep.2, I've wanted an Ep.2 Anakin since the release of JK2. nice trick, since jo came out a couple months prior to aotc.

Archonon Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 No trick my friend, I realize the difference between the release dates but by the time JO came out there was enough reference material for Anakin. And in all honesty I love his Jedi clothes and wanted an SP replacement for Kyle who stopped being cool for me after Dark Forces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinCoyle Posted September 22, 2003 Author Share Posted September 22, 2003 Another Update, did more work on the skin Anakin3.jpg As far as an Episode III anakin goes I may go ahead and make one, since the only real difference is the hair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariners2001 Posted September 22, 2003 Share Posted September 22, 2003 that looks really amazing. do you think it'll be tough to get in-game? and do you think you'll do a similar thing with anakin that you're gonna do with obi-wan by making it customizable rather than multiple icons?

KevinCoyle Posted September 22, 2003 Author Share Posted September 22, 2003 It shouldn't be any more difficult than getting a Jk2 model in-game. I wish I had the new XSI importer for max so I could see the changes with the skeleton but the old skeleton works fine in JA also. The only problem I've noticed is while using two sabers, the taunt animations looks a little funny, everything else seems fine with Jk2 imports. As for your second question I probably will, since I'm thinking of making a Ep3 anakin as well and a robed and and unrobed version. also it will allow people to play anakin in SP without a seperate file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archonon Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 Does that mean that you are planning on packing all of the skins, EP2, Ep2-robed, Ep3, etc together as defaults in the same pk3? I ask because most modelers love to have so many variants of their models and unforunately both JO and JA have strict limits as to how many additional models/skins can be added before they start overriding in the icon list and I reached my limit in both games a long time ago. It's somewhat frustrating having to either constantly be deleting older models to make space or having to edit the new ones so only the original default skin shows up. Any hope of seeing them in separate pk3s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinCoyle Posted September 23, 2003 Author Share Posted September 23, 2003 Anakin will be released as a custom character set, so you pick which head (Ep2, Ep3). torso (robed or unrobed) you want like you were setting up a SP character since the custom sets work in MP also. The main reason I'm doing this is to avoid the problem your concerned about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archonon Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 That sounds excellent Kevin, thanks for the consideration. I just noticed that Mariners2001 asked the same thing in a different way, sorry I made you answer that twice in a row. Thanks again and the model looks great.

The Cheat Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 does anybody know if there is a limit to the number of sets of heads/torsos/legs that the game can handle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy867 Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 Well, I for one haven't heard of one, and unlike Jedi Outcast, the main feature for Academy is customization so my guess is that Raven tried out MANY combinations with concept ideas, so so they had to push the engine to allow for such features. So, I guess we'll have to see, but its too early to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miko Reglia Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 well i guess the real test will be then to use both kevin's obi wan and anakin packs and throw them in there and see if the game can take it:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinCoyle Posted September 25, 2003 Author Share Posted September 25, 2003 Another update. I've made some adjustments to the face and hair, and added more hair along the top/sides. I've also made some progress on the overall skin. Anakin4 To Quigon007, You have my permission to use the models (anakin & obi) in your mod when they finished, as long as you give credit. The same applies to those working of the AOTC Total Conversion, if you need the models your welcome to use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quigon007 Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 Kevin, you are the best modeler out there, no one can make models as accurate as you. Btw will the anakin and obiwan models have movable eyes and mouths? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinCoyle Posted September 25, 2003 Author Share Posted September 25, 2003 Another render,...I'm just about done with the skin, just need to fix some things here and there and skin the little stuff like the braid and the gear on his belt. Anyone have any good reference pictures of the gear on his belt from the back, I'm not sure even what's on the back, the only picture i've found doesn't help much. anakin5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
