@@eezstreet , @@Horatio Culver,@@Raz0r Finished the rodian but I need to know how to randomize the skin a npc uses because If i make 4 npc's using the 4 skins only the default head will be used for the rodians ingame as the new npcs dont appear at the base maps so do you know how I can do this eez or Raz0r ?

yup that's my plan , we'll see how soon I can finish this though as I got a busy weekend and I might have to look for my twileks textures dunno if I still got them

I soemtimes suffer from bad wireless lan , you know I got a sepperate room under the roof ,2 stories above the router depending on weather and interference I get pretty crappy rates or can't connect at all it's done now though , so lemme fire up max EDIT : I got the feeling I downloaded the wrong plugin..... I'll check the installer for additional stuff EDIT 2 : nope nothing probably version 5.0 was the wrong one http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/item?siteID=123112&id=13525184&linkID=12544121 but I doubt it

will do , still downloading , suffering from slow internet today -.- 3 kb/s dl-rate ftw ! -.-

yep

uhm I tried that a while ago but couldnt get it to work =/ will try again in a min lemme DL that

that's actually not a bad idea.... I might infact do that sometime , I've started working at adding new heads to the merc model to add some alien mercs but pretty much stopped doing that after finishing the Devaronian I might aswell toss my twilek male heads in.....you'll hear from me so the current suggestions are : rodian mercs + rodian male heads human male + gran head & weequay head I wont touch Shiftee's trando , that's something I wont do without permission but maybe shiftee wants to join this project ? @@Darth Shiftee

I've been wondering if it was possible to add a function to the game to let it scan for updates automatically maybe we could help that by adding some sort of version-file to our pk3's which the auto updater would compare with the version up here just an idea I had recently I odnt know if that's even possibly but I thought it'd be nice to have

ah okay ,to bad

V2 is out ! https://jkhub.org/files/file/1537-emperor-doviculus/

I just stumbled across this : http://jkhub.org/tutorials/article/114-npc-classes-and-their-descriptions/ look under beast classes class_fish..... ? maybe you could test that one sometime

2010

I really hope you're going to compile the plugin for max 10 aswell

hehe I happened to have that skull model somewhere between my unfinished projects (WIP skeleton playermodel), thought I'd texture it really quick and make simple test anim for it to test your exporter

well import the original gun model and align your model with the original , that's how I do it but I really wodner if there's an easier way to do it maybe @@Inyri knows something

okay I got error 4599 with my creeper , which is most likely caused by some stupid mistake I made . I'll try soemthing else later but I'm in a hurry right now EDIT : works great !

okay then , time to tackle dat creeper once more

so I'm done with reweighting the torso and I've been experimenting with some shader stuff : I tried to utilize my "fake-bloom" shader here which went terribly wrong it's basically a slightly altered glowy specular shader I thought I'd try applieing it without altering the specular texture and well it came out very f*cked up.....

just tested the max 6 plugin : worked great for me me , I successfully exported v2 of my doviculus model using your exporter and I didn't encounter any issues yet but I doubt there are any as the model looks allright in modview is it capable of exporting animations yet ? If so I'll test that aswell

looks a little..... fat o.o sorta reminds me of but that might be the flat textures

finished the staff , and i'm absolutely gonig to reweight him as I keep noticing more and more flaws....

so I got a first uipdate to announce for v2 : I went ahead and fixed those REALLY visible seams at the shoulders and at his back , dunno yet if I'll bother with fixing the bottom side of his arms I'm also thinking of reweighting his Torso to fix a strange deformation at his shoulders EDIT : also

for sonuds check this site out : http://www.freesound.org/ you could probably mix some animal sonuds to create own sounds for your colo

looks a lot better ! , now reposition that tongue it's still comnig out of his throat cut it , and reposition it 2 quads down

yep it's a sideways eel exactly but you modeled a snake well atleast for the first half of your colo his "butt-fin" is spot on I guess EDIT : got something for ya http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/d/d9/Infantcolo.jpg that's a young colo so simply model that body and then stretch it out oh your current attempt is an improvement ,yep
