About This File
Sometime around 2012, I saw a photo on DeviantArt from a guy recreating Kyle Katarn from Star Wars Tales #21 "Equals and Opposites" comic book for Jedi Academy, and I was really inspired. I wanted to create the model myself, but unfortunately I didn't have the skills, so I only dreamed of ever playing with it. Although I found a few similar solutions, unfortunately I missed Kyle's original head from Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy.
Then, by 2023, I worked up the courage to learn JK modelling and skinning at least enough to make the Kyle Katarn I had dreamed of. And since I read on a few forums that other people like this model, I'm sharing it with you.
The model has icons, but if they don't appear in the game, they can be accessed with the following commands in the console:
model kyle/jacket
model kyle/jacket_blue
model kyle/jacket_red
LODs: Yes
Team Support: Yes
Bot: No
NPC: No
Single Player: Yes
Special thanks to:
Infinity Blade, because without him and the jacket and holster of his Mercenary Kyle model, my dream would never have come true.
Noodle, who introduced me to Blender and guided me through the maze of model making.
