  1. Nobody is going to show interest in something unless they know what it is. Any mapper interested in working on a project is already working on one of their own, most likely.
  2. Since it doesn't have an NPC file, you can still make it work without knowing any modding. Noodle was kind enough to provide the model folder and skin names in his file page description so you can use those to follow this tutorial: The model names are: /model female_trando/scarf /model female_trando/skirt /model female_trando/tech So if you follow the tutorial above knowing this info, an example of the command you'll want is this: playermodel female_trando model_default model_default model_default Or if you want one of the skins above you could replace the model_default with model_scarf or model_skirt, etc.
  3. Wow, that is impressive. More impressive that he got permission from Lucasflim.
  4. Alien: Isolation + DLC is free on Epic right now: https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/p/alien-isolation
  5. It can be done via entity modding and the music entry is in the first couple lines. Here's how to do the basics of decompiling a bsp to edit some limited info like that:
  6. Well LucasArts hasn’t existed since 2014, so it makes sense they’d use LucasFilm for the branding. All of this stuff was licensed from LF. I’m keeping the blister pack mint since I don’t need to use it. Not only because of the digital copy on the drive, but I still have my old discs as well.
  7. Moved request to the request forum. Also removed the 10 post restriction since it clearly didn't work.
  8. I don’t really think that’s the case. The forum has been losing activity slowly for years. I don’t think Discord is the cause of that, I think it’s just how the community has shrunk over the years. Sure people are still modding and you might see those conversations on Discord, more than here, but I think it’s more of a difference in quality of content. Getting instant help in a live chat is a valuable resource, but so is showcasing your content on a forum or writing a tutorial. I personally would rather see a thread with meaningful posts rather than a 80 page thread of posts that just say “cool!” or “lol” or other meaningless things like that. Though I have nostalgia for using forums that way, I prefer to use them to their strength in this day and age. You make all good points though and it’s all something I’ve been considering. I’ll have to discuss it further with the staff and JKC admins soon and see what we can do.
  9. None of us are admins on the JKCommunity server, so we really have no control over any of that. And making a new server would kind of defeat the purpose of JKC. I also don’t see how integration would be all that beneficial. Discord and forums are very different things and have their own strengths, weaknesses, and purposes. I love Discord but I don’t really think merging it into the forum would do anything other than clutter it with features that most people would probably not bother to use. It’s a good suggestion though, and I’m not dismissing it completely.
  10. Moved thread to requests forum. You can only have one mod show up in the saber menu, so you'll have to edit the menu to include all of the ones you have in one file via the tutorial above. That's just how the menus work, unfortunately. Some that I recommend for this list are: Galactic Warriors Saber Pack - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Kahn D'halaine's Lightsaber - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Stormtrooper Hilt + NPC - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Aegis - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Demp2 Lightsaber Hilt - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Scout Blaster Lightsaber Hilt - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub FC1 Flechette Lightsaber Hilt - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub E-11 Blaster Lightsaber Hilt - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Heavy Repeater Lightsaber Hilt - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Bryar Pistol Lightsaber Hilt - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHu Broken staff sabers for SP - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub The High Republic Inspired Lightsaber Hilt - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub JSS Curved Sith Lightsaber Hilt - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Naruto X Star Wars sabers - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Ralph McQuarrie's concept sabers (Luke and Vader) - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Black Saber (Baal saber) - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub WeaponsHD - The Sith Pack - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Tutorial Lightsaber - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Kyrios hilt - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Evil Genius hilt - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Z3-Filus / The Zefilus mini-pack - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Wookiee Lightsaber Hilts - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Jaden Korr's Lightsaber - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Raven's Saber - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Kane's Lightsaber - Lightsabers & Melee - JKHub Obviously there's probably more but those are the ones I found that are unique designs not tied to a canon/legends character and fit decently well with the other JKA sabers and not too over the top designs. This actually got me kind of wanting to do this.
  11. @Apprentice @Teancum your OCD has been saved, it's back. To be clear, I never removed it intentionally, I'm not sure how it disappeared honestly.
  12. Yep! I did not open mine, I want to keep it pristine, but I imagine it either has the same installer as the thumb drive or just the traditional disc version. I’m no youtuber but if people want to see me show off this stuff I could! Yeah, I don’t think they stated anything about the installer or the thumb drive at all other than it just being a thumb drive. I was pleasantly surprised. I do wish they had the JKA logo instead of the LF one but they are still cool.
  13. There are no physical manuals, everything I pictured is what is included. I do wish they had them. The PDF versions on the thumb drives are the same as the ones here and here.
  14. Limited Run editions arrive As most people around here know, the third party company dedicated to making limited collector’s editions of retro video games, Limited Run Games, did a run of Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy, back in April. Obviously orders were limited for these, but they have finally begun to arrive at peoples’ homes over the last few weeks. I personally ordered the PC version of both JO and JA, and thought people might be interested in details of these editions. First off, these come with a lot of stuff. I’ll be posting pictures of all of it, and go into a little detail on each thing. Jedi Outcast (Overview) Jedi Academy (Overview) Jedi Outcast Concept Art The concept art post cards are really cool. I’m sure these were somewhere on the internet before, but this was the first time I had seen them. One looks like the howler NPC that we didn’t end up seeing until JKA. Another is showing the Doomgiver’s underbelly, and the last is the outside of Kejim Outpost. Jedi Academy Concept Art I love saber hilt concept art and these are pretty darn close to what they look like in-game. The Yavin Runner shuttle design is pretty cool and I always thought it looked like something you’d see zooming around Coruscant. The other cards just basically show shots from random levels, which isn’t nearly as cool. Retrospectives Each come with a small booklet that has a little statement from Edwin Evans-Thirwell and Ed Smith, who I believe are gaming journalists. I feel this was a huge missed opportunity to have retrospectives from the developers themselves. These are very wordy and one talks mostly about Movie Battles, which I won’t deny is the most popular mode these days, but is odd to mention in a retrospective meant to talk about the game’s history itself, not a fan made mod. Nonetheless, still cool. Thumb drive installers One of the interesting parts of these bundles is the thumb drive. Both include an .exe installer for the game, and a PDF of the original guide that was included with the game back in the day. The installers seem to be brand new, and allow you to install each game without a disc at all. I verified that you can copy the installer, remove the drive, and install it from anywhere. Each is the latest version of the game (JK2 SP 1.03, MP 1.04 | JKA 1.01) and don’t need the disc to run. I was glad for this because I didn’t want to ever have to open the CD packaging (not that I’d need the installers anyway, but if Steam or GOG ever magically disappear, I’m still safe. It’s just nice that they actually are useful. I wasn’t expecting anything on these 2GB drives, but when I saw installers, I half expected them to just be disc dumps. Thoughts? Overall these are awesome collector’s editions. Huge thanks to Limited Run Games for making these and still giving so much love to games considered to be dead. These games will always live on here on JKHub, on the servers, in the communities, and now on our shelves and walls. I will be hanging at least one of the posters at my place, and the pins are going on my car sun visor, for sure. Anyone else get theirs? Any non-PC editions to share? View full article

  16. This is a bit late, but voting did automatically close at the right time. We didn't have a ton of entries, but those that did enter, really brought their A-game, so I'm really glad for that! The votes are in, and our winner is... Din Djarin by @Doughnuts Some people may not be surprised, because this model is outstanding and of course is the main character of the show itself. We had a couple decent models before, but this one really takes the cake. Doughnuts has really come into his own skin with his models over the last couple years, and this is really something to be proud of. Nice work, mate. The other entries were awesome. Loved the Ice Spider, Boba, and Calodan. Nice work to @ChalklYne, @bigphil2695, and @biggs.
  17. For the King and Metro: Last Light Redux are free on Epic for a few days. https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/free-games
  18. Moved topic to modding assistance.
  19. @Aldro Koon all fair points. I should clarify not all servers are like what I or Bubbles described. I haven’t played on JoF in years so can’t really vouch for that but I have definitely been kicked or banned in the past on other serves for even just a mistaken saber hit on AFK people. It’s kind of ridiculous how some admins can be about it. Pretty sure one of my names is permabanned on KR for something like that.
  20. This is one of my biggest peeves as well, that "laming" is even a thing. Every server and clan I had power in always made it a point to let people do whatever they wanted, as long as it didn't go too far and actually began to cause major problems. The big issue is that most servers treat JKA as a chat room, so standing still for hours chatting is the default mode for most players, despite the game having a spectator mode built exactly for people like that. Makes no sense. Unfortunately a lot of big clan servers have had these strict rules for so many years now that they don't really understand what it looks like from an outside perspective, especially when some of them don't venture out to play other games. Or they joined these clans at a very young age and just grew up knowing it to be a rule for JKA and that everyone should abide by it. In the past I would just tell people to avoid servers like that, but since those are now the only active servers these days, I can't really say that. It's definitely something that should change, but at this point, the people still hosting big servers probably aren't open to changing such a thing, because they are still successful and probably assume their strict rules are the reason for that. In some ways that could be true, some people require strict rules to enjoy their time, but most people just want to play. This has made my consider having official JKHub servers for casuals to play on without risking banning and more focus on playing, but that's still a big can of worms I'm not sure I want to fully open again.
  21. Including Lucasfilm should be enough, they are the licensors. I don't think you'd need to add every single name of every single mod author, but maybe just the main ones you see and then just say that there are other mods that you didn't create that are seen. I think that would be enough.
  22. I'm not sure where it originated, but I do know it started being required on readme files back in the early JK3Files days. I simply copied it from one, and updated it slightly. I'm not sure if it was written by a staff member or if they were contacted by Raven Software to include it. Maybe someone who was more involved back in the day would know. It's for the opposite: to say that none of those entities made or distributed the file, and that we are legally allowed to host them without permission. We have it built into every file page, which technically shouldn't be on the official Raven Software files, but it won't hurt anything. So for a YouTube video that includes mods and JKA content, having that somewhere wouldn't hurt. Replace "file" with "video" would be fine. Of course, if you are using JKA footage, credit Raven Software, LucasArts, and Lucasfilm for their game assets. And if you are using mods, credit those mod creators as well.
  23. Voting is open! Be sure to take a look at each and I recommend actually trying them out in-game before voting.
  24. Submissions are closed and we’ve got a total of 4 submissions to the Mandalorian contest. The winner will be decided by your votes, so get them in. All votes will be visible, so keep that in mind before any attempts to fake votes.
  25. This is epic looking. Can’t wait!
