I'll take your reply the same way as a request from my recent saber request thread - It's just beyond the kotor bundle pack on my to-do list. Or no... langred or someone requested a bundle of melee weapons, including a new noghri staff and rifle. It'll be done in a week and a half, hopefully.

Haha now that you mention it yes, if I'd work only on your hilts up until now, I'd be done in... a week, maybe. Given the pack and everything, huh. I'm doing what I can when I'm free. @@MagSul, once again, here you go: LINK (wait for the approval) I hope you're satisfied! A message to everyone; If I spend a whole day on one hilt, the outcome is like the last two hilts I've created. somewhat everything is okay... i'll try to take my time, which means I'll probably do a hilt a day. But It'll be just as i mean them to be; HD. The main goal of all my mods is to bring you graphics fit for year 2015.

@@Nikomaru14 thank you for your input! I see the force pike is made well, though maybe I could do my own mid-poly version. All of my mods are HD if you noticed, and this one looks just like it was taken straight out of kotor. Don't like it. @@Darth Reborn, I think I've decided. I'll make sure you see the KOTOR weapons done in the future, but as MagSul's second hilt, Nikomaru14 and Langred have priority because they wrote before you, I ask you to wait for a week or so before that happens. Good?

@@Nikomaru14 We've had contact already in my requests thread, but nevertheless, WELCOME! I also made a release on JK3files, when someone recommended me this site there under the comments, saying everyone moved here. So without any extra thought, I visited the Hub, registered and started being creative here. That's my story, in short And I plan on staying as long as the community will live, I kinda feel I owe this to the one game that changed everything for me. If it wasn't for JKA, I would never be anything more than a simple player.

A warm welcome from me, too. Glad to see you around!

Hello SiLink! I'm glad I see people returning here, there was a time when I thought the community is dying. Now thanks to you and many others that are joining, I don't feel like that anymore. I'm one of the new faces around, but I was very active around the years of 2003-2006 on JK3files under various different names... but oh well.

No worries, I'm speaking english since I was 8 years old. I'm 21 now and still need a bit more of an explanation sometimes.. Anyway, we're happy to have you here, especially me! I look forward to your translations, I've learned french for 4 years in middle school, might be interesting to go through your mods.

Oh! Well just a second, I'm quite sure I've seen all of these done for JKA before! Even played SP with stormtroopers having vibroswords or other simple weapons from the KOTOR bundle, I'm SURE of it! Though I don't remember how the mod was called or where I downloaded it, it was back in the days of JKA's max popularity. Try to search for it or maybe someone else that watches over this topic can help out.. if we won't find it, I'll make sure to add this weapon bundle to my to-do list. Allright?

@@Darth Reborn you mean the vanilla saber model that was in KOTOR? It's a really simple hilt with practically no details on it. I might create it, but surely not a copy, I'd remaster the design which means concept it realistically and from scratch, but keeping it's original shape. You know, I'd add a holster, buttons and maybe some control boxes with light buttons and so on. Other than that, if you were kind enough to provide some pictures so I can know what exactly you want to see done, I'll get to it but in a few days. I am very happy that you all want me to do so many sabers, I didn't think you'll like my idea this much, on the other hand, quite a list came together already. For now I'm devoted to draw concepts for The Dark Pastime and at the same time, I'll be creating all the hilts you request here AND my own hilts for my packs... But I very much like the Idea that I don't need to think anymore about what I schould create I'd much rather make your wishes come true instead, but as I said, I ask only of you to understand that It'll be done all in due time.

@@MagSul here you go, first one finished, gladius soon to come: LINK Though it needs to be approved before it's availible. I had no clue about what to name the hilt, so I simply used the name from the website, I hope you don't mind. If you want to change these things, I can send you the md3 and skin files, just say the word! If you want anything drastically changed, make a small list and I'll get to it once I find the time, then update it once I finish. What's more, I added a small holstering button and tag at the bottom on the ring so it schould be compatible with redsaurus's SP customization mod! Here's a picture of the Gladius, I need to ask you something; is it okay if I don't model in the spiral at the bottom, where the leather is? It just seems pointless, but oh well. I can do it, no problems regarding that. Also, for the sake of funcionality, I've placed the holster button at the back of the saber instead of 30° to the left, hope you don't mind. @@Nikomaru14 don't worry, I'll do all of them. DT85 sure did a fantastic job, I gotta say! And the textures he did look great, too. Though I'm going to the max regarding cylinder sides (I use 16 or 12) and high-res textures (at least 1024x1024), not to mention I've got my very own style and create everything from scratch with mouse and keyboard, no texture baking or whatnot. It'll look quite different and it might suit you better.

It's the same width as the bottom part is, (I've modeled this AROUND the original model, so the proportions are also the same... it's wierd it looks wierd, but I'll fix it if you want me to). I'll be using Sketchfab instead of screenshots from now on: The Outcast - Lowpoly by Rooxon

@@Langerd I'll do them, but one after another. I'm just about done modeling the first of MagSul's hilts.

Allright, here it is. I'll do luke's sometime during the weekend and I hope It'll be release ready by then, but there's still a lot of other things to do for the mod before that. The Outcast (Kyle's hilt):

I'm making the staffs throwable in my packs and in addition to that, giving all sabers return damage. In all Star Wars games I've had the chance to witness saber throws, the saber was also spinning when returning, that's why I decided to do so for JKA too. Regarding the switch to the saber when you want to throw it, i wouldn't really change it. It's logical and it's realistic like that... but that's just my 5 cents worth of oppinion. @@redsaurus, I know how to make the noghri staff useable and I could do the gun in theory too. Schould I do it for you?

Allright now it loads fine, thank you very much! And I'm just about done with the Outcast too, which means I'll most certainly start on MagSul's hilts today, and tomorrow it's your turn @@Nikomaru14 , at least it schould be. But I might take longer, as I'll do the hilts rather slowly and in good quality rather than in a quick job.

Allright, I've got only two opinions, but the ring really does look better. I think I'll go with the ring version, then. This is where I left off earlier today, I've finished working and now it's time to get back to modding. I'm just starting to do the color map, later only realism filters/brush work remain. The Outcast: I'm trying really hard to stay realistic, not to do any mistakes and so on. This is one of my favorite hilts from the game and JKA's trademark, kind off so the work has to be befitting of that.

Can't decide which holstering mechanism to use on the outcast, which looks better?

Only the top picture won't load for me...if it does for you, could you help me out?

I partly understand exactly what you mean. I'm in the process of building my own house, though for now there's just the walls and the asphalt to the house done. Might take two or three more years before I save up enough money to complete it. I'm gonna have a recording studio in my own house, too as I'm a singer and guitarist. Probably merged with the computer room. Also, I'm playing the accordion and a little bit of the piano. Just love making music that can be played and sung real-time.

@@Circa, what was wrong with JKHub earlier today, giving an error instead of loading the website? Oh and other than that, I tried out both the button mechanism and the ring... I couldn't decide at first which to use on the outcast (kyle's hilt) but I decided to go with the ring rather then the button. I can post both pictures if you want, in one I replaced one of the bottom boxes on the hilt with the holster button, in the other I installed the holstering ring I created for use with all my hilts (I'm sure you know which I mean, it's on alora's and tavion's hilts, also the updated zayne carrick's hilt). And one other thing, buddy... I downloaded your fix for the hilts and I want to apply the same for all of my models. Regarding just the dual sabers and the upcoming finalized misc. sabers pack, would you mind helping me position and resize all of the hilts right? Either with positioning/resizing them yourself if I send you the max files or just telling me for how much I schould move the hilt and where. Either would work for me.

@@Nikomaru14, good news for you. I'm 2 hilts away from finalizing the first of my packs, after that I'm gonna do all 4 hilts you and @@MagSul requested. But could you please try to find a better picture of Kylo Ren's (as the png's name states) hilt? That would be very helpfull. Otherwise, I could come up with my own design of such a hilt, but it's still kinda tricky to do it good.

Like, as a SP choice? Well... it wouldn't hurt, even though I wanted to keep all of the new hilts originals, your designs. I guess I could, yes. Also what's more, I need to play around with the hilt sizes a bit as I noticed I did some of them too big and some too small.
