You need entity modding for that, which involves working with already compiled map, just start on your own map and learn from there. There are some great tutorials here on JKHub, check out MUG's series.

Yeah, and one of these day's I'll write a good SP scripting tut for you. While it is not very difficult, some aspects can get a little bit tricky. But, dude, modding SP is so awesome. You can bring your story to life with SP.

@therfiles I really want to. My forte when I modded was mainly just mini mods and animation stuff, all for SP. But I always wanted to make a story mod.

Mapping is where I don't want to step into. I attempted that as well and I just didn't understand it at all.

PNG stuff is double-compressed when put into a PK3, and as a result the load times are doubled since it needs to decompress it twice. You do not need a shader with either TGA or PNG though.

I did though. Transparency didn't work without a shader.

The alpha channel stuff isn't complicated! Black --opacity--- white. You can set it up with almost two keypresses. Proof:

Saw it only once, without choice of "classic" on the "Grand Large" of the Rex. It wasn't really nice, maybe I'll watch it in a smaller cinema but with normal screen

Same in the States, DT. Another reason I don't like 3D. The glasses darken, it gives me a headache, and is distracting. I will never see a movie as important to me as SW in 3D first. 4th time is a good time to do that. lol

I saw it once and that was enough for me

Circa Does my Zombie Stormtrooper is in the contest list? I must upload it first right?

You need to submit it as an actual file in the contest category for it to be in the contest.

It must be a new file, made for the contest.

Are you saying that if I split up every NPC in it's own file, it won't crash?

No. I'm saying that it doesn't matter how much you split up the files/how many NPCs you add, it's the combined characters of all the files that goes towards the limit.

You can eliminate some very basic fields from the files in order to cut this limit. For instance, "aggression", "intelligence", "evasion" etc all have a default value of 3, so if you see any "evasion 3", you can delete that. That might help you squeeze a few extra NPCs out.

Ah okay. Thanks for the tip.

lol..should of said "If I wanted my comeback i wiped it off ur moms face" but that just me

@revian

Lol, my friends say that all the time

That's quite disturbing!

I don't know, I only overheard them in the other room.

Teach them, then ask for a bonus.

You should totally teach them. Ten you will become GOD TO THEM and rule with an iron fist.

*Looks at desktop ram* Oh dear... that low eh?

But all jokes aside, nice take!

well remember its a laptop not a tower.

Still going strong with 2GB of Ram! WhOoP wHOoP!

THE JEDI ARE TAKING OVAH

THE EXECUTIVES ARE TAKING OVAH!

was on there a day before it crashed reliving the memories of the old days

but I went around these problems the last time I edited it simply by not using any tags at all.

It was updated like 10 seconds before writing this status.

oh then I can't help you as I've written that one before that... I'll report next time I do.

Apology not accepted! Inconceivable!!!

(Thanks Circa. )

Dropbox can surely do bettah.

Unless it's taking ovah.

oh snap

Good to hear ^^

they look nothing like ewoks..lol

I'm referring to their pointless role in the movie not their design

Their role in the movie is most likely selling toys

Oh, I'm afraid episode 7 will be quite operational when 2015 arrives...

*evildisneysmirk*

Haha okay I take back my promise.

"I reject your reality and substitute my own"

fascinating

I don't seem to see the XFire field anywhere, otherwise I'd fill it out.

Would it be too much to ask for custom background images/styles on our profile pages? I want to give mine a little flair.

Sorry eez, it's fixed now. Should be right under Steam. As for backgrounds, I'll discuss it with the other staff. I think that would be cool.

Finally! JKA is usefull for something.

Tempting to map something, but too much on the go, lol

jawaween anyone

I told you it would come to this!

Looks like jkgalaxies site went down with it. Still hasn't come back up.

^ The jedi failed to take Coruscant, so now they're trying to take ovah Tatooine!

I see. I may have to get that as well then.

Bioshock 1 turned me off the rest. Just totally lame.

Stick to Bio1, it's a classic; Bio2 isn't so good in comparison, but infinite is definitely worth a play.

Merry Christmas! UNLIMITED POWAAAAAH!!!

@Onysfx you are in need of saber dismemberment.

@Circa, Christmas sucked because I hate my life.

maybe people could do some articles about mods : their development, their team, the features of the mod, the good and bad points.

There are japlus and mbii, but there is a lot of mods (realJedi mod, ForceMod, DarkForceMod, ...)

I was planning a series of articles a long time ago before Mog ended up being a massive, inconsiderate dick and deleting my first few ones. I might revisit this idea, now that you mention it.

Do some clan/community spot lights o.o

Pure realism has been attempted by some games, yeah. There's a point where it just takes away from the fun factor. I'm thinking of survival games where you have to literally find food and water and sleep regularly or else you become sick and die, PLUS trying to progress in the game's story. There are only a few games like that and it's usually a bonus option rather than default.

As far as lightsabers go, I think JKA and JK2 are the only games to get it close. Turning on dismemberment helps with that, but that fact that you can take out a stormtrooper with one swing is pretty accurate, and is why I love SP as much as I do. I shouldn't need to spend a good 5 minutes button mashing the attack button to kill one person.

I was about to say that JK2 had a good explanation for taking long to kill enemies: The sith in the dark armor wear an anti-lightsaber alloy or whatever it was. But then again, reborns fight in robes and take a while, as do all the bosses. Bushido Blade is good, but wouldn't work in a JKA setting. Also, survival games are fantastic (arma), but again, they're more of a simulation than an action game and wouldn't work very well with SW.

This is actually an interesting thought, another case scenario is they just might be collectors.

Or simply because it's fun to speak and share their ideas -- without ever seriously taking into account how much time and work it would take to actually make something like what they are requesting...

I don't understand requests anyway.

2sad4me

Do you think that updated files could also go in whats new?

dope

If only I didn't get a really horrible Error 522 when trying to download them.

All of them?

Yep. Looked around the Internet and there are some suggested solutions around that I'll try.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Maybe someone stole Circa's bagel and this ststus update was a plea for help.

Bagel begone... but where has it gone? What a conundrum.
