HK-47? or any hk?

[Guest Lordniti2]

I have always wondered why no one ever made a hk model for jedi academy, i know kotor model got ported over but why is it no one ever made their own model?

 

Main reason I am asking this because it would be pretty neat for hk-47 or any hk to be officially put into mb2 (yes I am well aware of the peneke pack)

@@Jeff has an HK-55 in one of his packs, but I also haven't seen a HK-47.

It's hard sometimes to find the will to want to make a model of something that has already been ported. You have to 1 up the original which can be tough since it has to be more than just accurate but more detailed. You may spend all that time making it for no one to even want to download it.

or we could just retexture Jeff's Hk-55...

I have the textures for HK-47 and HK-51, if anyone wants em.

If someone here has KotOR 1 and 2 I'd consider porting things over since Disney says it's pretty much OK.

Have fun.

I'm sure 90% of people here have the KOTOR games at least in their Steam library. They've been on sale for like $3 multiple times in recent years.

I don't have Blender anymore and I refuse to reinstall it, the software's UI is the worst I've ever seen.

didn't someone already port HK-47 from Kotor?

[Xioth]

I have an HK-47 model, as well as a collection of TONS of KOTOR Models.

I figured, but was posting for others to take a look at. I know that you already know what you're doing.

Yes, multiple times. But they're rigged really badly. The hands don't move, the hips are rigged too low somehow and some of the models' faces aren't rigged at all.

 

If you want the ported models badly enough, you can easily find them. Hint: ModDB.

I actually have it from there

Jeff updated that pack?

can I have a link??

There have been models for all the HK droids for years, I believe they are in the kotor pack.

@@Circa I don't want the terribly done ports, I want the bare models from the games assets so that I could properly put them in JA complete with LOD's and caps.

I know, like I said, was mentioning for others. Don't you have the games though? Just need to use KOTOR Tool to extract them.

as he said, only some of the ports are his, not every model in the zip is ported by him, in fact, thank @@DarthStiv for alot of them

Maybe they can work together to import a lot of KOTOR stuff.

Got hold of an extracted HK-47 from KOTOR, but the model seems messed up - parts missing, etc.

 

I did, however, find what might be a better alternative. A guy called 'cirre992' made HD remakes of several KOTOR characters and offered them for free distribution with the original intention of someone porting them to the source engine for Garry's Mod:

 

 

 

 

The HK model in particular looks pretty good - to the point that I wasn't going to share it here as I thought it was just a port of the SWTOR model. However I've extracted the TOR model and compared the two and it does indeed appear to be an original, free-to-use creation by the above user. It's also well within normal JKA model limits at ~2615 vertices across the whole model.

 

If it's of any use to anyone for getting into JKA, the pack can be found here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/ks6nwgc3s1bb4cr/kotor+source+files.rar

[Penekowski]

That's prety cool, i'd love if someoone could port Mission Vao from that pack as well. The actual functional jka port is pretty bad

[minilogoguy18]

I have the games but I can't for the life of me figure out what files I need nor does Softimage import MDL files. I think there is a 3DS Max importer for KotOR models.

 

I downloaded that pack.
