Saber/Sword weapon request thread


Recommended Posts

@ and @@Bishwhe today it's turn for the both of you. Just to let you know! @@Darth Reborn and @@Nikomaru14, the both KotOR Mods have been uploaded already, just wait for them to get approved. (Take a look at my first post, I will always update it with mods I've already done.) I'd like to say at this point i'm very busy and I complicated some things for myself, so the Melee Bundle isn't as perfect yet as it schould be, but I'll work on fixing it before anything else. Final version will be done VERY soon.

Everyone else, as I seem to be picking up the pace, you may go ahead with filing your requests. Pause is officially over. :P Oh, and some think I overlooked posts. Well, I tend to think of myself as one of the most fair guys around. Don't worry, a request is a request and I go in the order you've posted them. ALL will be done, just please understand that in due time. :)

I see. Awesome. I have somewhat of a "specific" request.

---I request a Katana with the following pictures, and specifications :P.

 

 

http://www.coldsteel.com/Product/88DK/KATANA%2c_DRAGON_FLY_SERIES.aspx

 

 

This Katana, detailed, with the following adjustments and or my suggested nitpicking's:

*Blade is as long as a regular saber blade, though it is fine if it is a bit longer or a tiny bit shorter. "Preferred: As long."

 

 

If at all possible a well, could you make a second version of the sword, but with it in the hilt? Of course, that may look a bit weird swinging around, but that would just be the nice added bonus. Anything at all, even considering this, or reading this request, I thank you for it.

 

 

 

 

I thank you very much for your time.

Sure, no problem. Just one thing; I don't really understand what you mean in the before-last line. Could you explain a bit differently, please?

I never realized you were on a pause @@Rooxon, lol. Can't wait to see the sabers in game!

 

Quick question, will you make the curved lightsaber along with the additional saber I requested or is that for another time?

Well, I asked of you to stop filing in requests so I could catch up a bit :P Will do all three versions, I thought I told you that that is a matter of playing around once I've got the model ready. It's just that it's one helluva detailed model and what's more, I needed to reinstall windows, so I have to create it from scratch again.

 

 

Thanks for kotor melee pack, but i have question about gammorian axe. Is there an mistake or it's by design so small and have absolytely another design& Cause in kotor it looks like that

Uhh I googled for the gamorrean axe. I found like 3-4 versions of it and I just decided to go with the one, that's easy and fitting enough. Wanna rather see this version? I mean, because the KotOR bundle is yet still incomplete, it could be done.

Actually yes, I've got trouble even with going in-game. It's just too much of a low resolution everywhere, if only I could find a real-life replica or something of the likes it would make my job a LOT easier. I already thought about getting my KotOR run, but I've got the antic 4-CD version, which I got as a birthday gift when I was younger. It probably won't work right away and even if I install it, windows8 might be a problem for that version. I need to get my hands on the newer one, which was optimized for the new windows systems. Also, if I get KOTOR up and running, I'll probably download the kotor weapons improvement mod (dunno how exactly it's called, sorry) and hope that those swords look better or at least, good enough for me to make replicas later on.

sorry, things don't look as magical right now as they did those days when I started this thread. As you know, various carnevals are coming ever closer and we're working non-stop (in real life), almost day and night. That's where my low activity here comes from, but today I've found a few hours of time; At least one saber will be done.

EDIT: Oh, I could explain a bit further if I already mentioned it... in Slovenia, around Christ's birth, every year we've got a carneval called "Fashang" or "Fashing" if you want, i'm just helping you with the pronounciation here; It's actually Mardi Gras in french; a carnval, similiar to Haloween; people dress up as whatever they fancy, on the contrary to haloween, where people dress into scary, dark things. Mostly like clowns, power rangers, ninjas and whatnot. As we're the owners of the bakery, around this time of year EACH year, we run a special treat for our customers; Donuts, which are pretty popular in our country, but they're not those with the hole in them; they look more like this:

I'll be baking between 500-1000 of these each night AND working during the day, whereas next tuesday, I'll be making between 3000-5000 of these per night.. That's where my inactivity comes from; I literary don't have time even to sit down and watch porn. Honestly. I'm not motivated enough to sit down and do something relaxing not even for a minute, most of the time I only look forward to lying down somewhere and catching a bit of sleep. I promise I'll pick up my pace soon, but the work has just started; I think I'll be done with those few hilts all of you requested as of this moment in a week's time, hopefully. If not, you've already been informed as to why that will be; I just won't be able to find the motivation or time.

hahaha I'm like Naruto; I'll never burn out ;D Don't worry, it's just depressing I had to reinstall windows as well and lost all my .max files... on the other hand, my modding base folder is safe so I still have pretty much all I need, I'll recreate the max files with importing the md3s, becuse I've never done LODs for my hilts and I have to, in order for them to work as they schould. Also well it's not just one sided like you said; I actually need variable weapon ideas to create, to hone my skills. Like I stated in the first post, I could be deciding on those myself or kill two flies with one stone, let you post your ideas and I'll create them. If nothing else, they're at least a challenge this way.

Ahh, now it's just a few I think. But enough to keep me busy, still.. 

EDIT: I counted them, it's 8 more requests, the last being the Dragonfly Katana for @@Artorias and the one I'm working on right now is the beautiful hilt for @ , also Dusty22 will get the stinger/guardian colab staff since I offered to him to create one a long time ago but forgot haha, so I'll make the stinger staff a priority! Also I could mention that I'll probably do 4 of those requests, then tackle my Single Sabers pack and finalize it also. Which is hopefully going to be after the work rush I have in real life right now and I'll be making 15 completely remade single hilts, 9 of them being the original ones. If you look at the quality of my mods when I joined and compare it to right now, you're gonna understand why I'm gonna recreate them all once more. :D

You're exceptional too Langerd and actually I see that many follow in my footsteps, one way or another. Well I don't wanna offend anyone, it might also be that people simply share my view. But thank you for your kind words, such things really do mean a lot more to me then I'm usually letting people know... that's the reason I always return here, check at least once a day what's new. Because I love JKA, JKHub, lots of people here and last but not least, creating mods for everyone's joy. But to be perfectly fair, there's lots of people that changed my view on things here and are exceptionall people, going from AngelSoul, AshuraDX, Bek (who's hidden the Hidden :D), Zefilus, Circa and many many others, I think you all know who you are for sure! 

Your ideas + my work = Very good training, win-win situation. :D I think the only difference between me and most people is that I don't like unneeded, offensive behaviour. Actually I like what's completely contrary, colaboration, friendships, doing favors and asking for NOTHING in return, and so on. That's it, in short. :)

@ I'm learning the same process AshuraDX uses; first a highpoly model, then baking the textures for the lowpoly one, this is the current result but this lowpoly model is still too high poly for JKA, so I'll make another one with around 1000 faces. But I managed to get the bakes together without any horrible artifacts this time, which is progress in itself since I'm doing this by myself for the first time. If I manage to master this somewhat soon, I'll do all my models like this from now on - just imagine the base hilts looking as good as this. :P

Also, since the previous hilt was Evil Genius, I decided to call this one the Good Vigilante :P It was a saber used by some Turanis in some fan art, as AshuraDX found out... but there's no name, so I decided to give it this one. :P

I really love your work, seriously, basically everything you do ends up in my base folder :D. Keep it up!

 

I've just got a question about that student version od 3DS Studio Max... seriously, what's the real deal about it? I mean, they couldn't verify if you were a student really so it should have some tricky licence about it. I would love to try software myself since I'm a student but it just feels... too good?

there is no catch - you just can't do any commercial work using the student version

but it has all features and allows you to use pretty much all plugins you are just restricted from selling your assets
