Revan?

[Major_Tom]

Pardon me if someone already did it but has anyone ever made a Darth Revan model that wasn't a port?

Not a fan of this one, but it's the only one so far.

@@Almightygir_gir is making one.

That revan was a shit port of Gir's MB3 UDK version. When JKA gets moar rend2, I'll ask Gir if I can port the MB3 UDK version (with a lower quality mesh of course).

Rend2 can do that, DT!? O_O Wow!!

haven't heard the good news about rend2?

i see you haven't embraced the way of rend2. Stop and ask yourself sometime, "what can rend2 do for me?"

Bah, always hated that one.

[Circa]

It'd be nice to have one that closer resembled the KOTOR one without it being ported.

@@Circa, @@Major_Tom; i'm curious to know what you disliked so much? in what ways could i have done a better job?

[Omicron]

I think it's a good model, but the textures aren't the greatest.

I can't really pinpoint it. I feel like the "dress" things around the legs are too bulky. Not really sure how to describe it fully. Also, the NPC file still needs to be fixed. That's not a model issue, just one that I thought you should know. I'd be happy to fix it for you, but I can't do so without your permission.

 

[AshuraDX]

You guys have to know : @@Almightygir only made the model , it was put ingame by @@minilogoguy18 or @@Inyri and the npc files were made by some random dude whose name I forgot

 

so the bulkyness might have come from realigning this model to match the JA proportions

Umm...I never was able to get into modeling, Eez. :/

[eezstreet]

ah, but you don't need to be a great prophet of rend2 to reap in its many benefits

Noted.

[minilogoguy18]

You guys are smoking some serious crack if you think that Lee's KotOR Revan is inaccurate, that is easily the best Revan model for JA. I was even trying to talk him into not remaking it since IMO, it really can't be improved upon very much, it's very well made.

 

@@AshuraDX, yeah I did all other things to make it a working model, he just handed me the model and textures in the pose you see in the pic posted above and said "put it in JA if you want" so I did then asked permission to release.

 

If he doesn't come back to this model which IMO isn't necessary I'll probably add more features like LOD's and whatever else is missing.

 

@@Almightygir, you've known me for a long time and know I don't kiss ass but this model beats the shit out of every other one for JA out there, easy.

[Circa]

Don't get me wrong, it's accurate and a great model. I just think it seems slightly bottom-heavy. Perhaps it's just the default BOTH_STAND1 stance that throws it off, but the leg dresses just seem too bulky.

[Almightygir]

I should probably mention, bearing in mind my other project, it's highly unlikely i'll come back to fix any issues with this one. I was just curious as to what people thought the problems were so i could address them in my other project.

 

i'm curious as to whether you feel those problems still exist in the render i put on my portfolio (i'm aware of other issues in my portfolio version though, like the armour not matching the original):

 

[DT.]

Not sure what happened on porting it to JKA, but your portfolio one is heaps better.

[eezstreet]

With that polycount, it'll actually fit in JA just fine.

that portfolio one , is another model , gir remade his revan some time ago but the remake never got ported into JKA

[Circa]

The portfolio one is definitely better.

Is OpenJK working on improving max polycounts and stuff, or is that not planned?

rend2 will maybe have a higher max polycount, otherwise no

I can't pinpoint it it just....doesn't really look like Revan to me. Close, but not Revan. The one in the portfolio though is amazing.
