Did you ever decide on the remaining staff designs?

Nope, I've decided on those posted ones only.

Hi Rooxon.

You work excellent!

I saw the sword Kanan,please,you could not make a saber Ezra Bridger?

I'll answer you just for the sake of... well I don't know but I'm having a good day. This weapon was already requested and is on my "interesting" list, which means I plan on doing it, which means I'll probably do it soon.

But please, let's not get offtopic. This is no "request" thread and I won't be taking up anymore from the point onward when I posted in the request thread and asked AshuraDX to close it. Feel free to ask me via PM but I'll probably create things that I deem interesting enough to make.

Will you add weapons effects from Ultimate weapons aswell?

Nope. Maybe do my own but I was never the kind of modder to use other's work.

I'm sorry guys, I'll do a few hilts I think are interesting (hard) enough to make from this thread or my personal messages. Also, @@Barricade24 don't worry, your gun is almost done but I'll upload all of those requests in one (last) shot. After that, I'll be concentrating on my restarted project, more or less in silence. Maybe use the thread for a question or two... but after that, I'll stop being active around here. I promise I'll submit a mod here and there but I would really love to start concentrating on new-gen games. Let's hope we get a SW moddable one sometime soon!

But it's been fun and a challenge. I thank you guys for posting your wishes and I thank you for waiting for ... too long to see them done. You're not that far away anymore to see them, though these will be the last requests I take up. Be well, learn modding and new things and most important of all, never let JKHub or JKA modding die! As long as we keep coming back, it's alive. May the Force be with you all!
 

I did, several times. Always the same problem: Script can't be found thus can't be loaded up. It's like it wants me to think the JK:Enhanced doesn't work with the same script list as the vanilla game does or... I dunno. But it might just be a CamSP problem rather than JK:Enhanced...

Okay, well I'll be continuing these hilts as soon as I finish a few requests I promised to do. Next in line are the Kotor Saber update, Scout Blaster and two or three hilts from my thread and one from my PMs. (got tons of them lol, it's nice to see you all want to see this variety of things in JKA but I'm a single human being! lol I probably won't be finished with all of them not even in one year's time. xD)

Thank you! I'm doing my best. I'll need to play with the topology a bit, also, the edges on the grip need a bit of vertex repositionings and maybe a bit of work with smoothing groups. I need to merge a few parts of the model that aren't merged yet, to make it ready for a good, realistic bake with parts mended like they are on the reference.

Today I got a small picnic planned with friends so I probably won't be doing any progress, just to let you know! But this highpoly modeling was the hard part of it all together, so no worries. I could even work with this unfixed model If I wanted to, since I'm fixing the bakes in PS before using them in Substance Painter anyway. But an ever-nagging friend of mine wants me to do things good or not bother at all... so I'll bother a bit. @@AshuraDX

This is it for tonight:

slowly getting there.

 what's wrong? just being honest here, take a look at the model!

vehicles like what? I won't be suggesting to do everything around JKHub for now since I've got so many wishes pending I could get crazy, but, what vehicles exactly did you have in mind?

Started working the grip highpoly:

...because I accidentaly forgot to save my files to a secure partition, I lost my first file so it's kind of a fresh start but truly, I had that top done in 10-15 minutes so it's not too much of a loss, also, I found a great new reference which I'm using now:

I made it shorter and fixed a few things but this is all for today.

Model so far:

The base is slowly taking shape, which I'm going to transform and work on to create a highpoly model of the blaster. @@Barricade24 This will take me some time since I'm not free a lot during the week!

Those saber recreations look gorgeous. And the new concepts look great. I especially like Arbitrator concept and the Veteran looks very interesting. Will you play around with 3-bladed sabers, like Kylo's? Great work here.

Depends, @zefilus is my Director of Concept Management. No seriously, I'm just saying "yes" or "no" to the concepts, actually I'm interested in this question as well @@therfiles ! In a certain aspect, we could tribute the last open position in the singles to a saber that kinda resembles Kylo Ren's, but, I read a bit about him. He hasn't got a "3 bladed saber" per se, more like two "venting-emitters" which need to let out the additional unneeded energy because he's using a cracked lightsaber crystal - which is also why the blade looks unstable! So, we need to keep this in mind!

EDIT: Gosh I can't link zefilus in on this because of his wierd F -.-

@@ensiform Yes the idea for my weapons back in april 2014 was exactly for it to be used in JK:Enhanced which means they will have vanilla game AND JK:Enhanced support! Which is also why this topic is inside the JK:Enhanced category (or section)!

This first post will be updated throughout my process with model showcases from Sketchfab and possibly some new informations with time! The old one and the SabersHD joint plan with AshuraDX won't really happen. He's commenting on my work throughout it all but other than that, I'm working alone now and should be able to complete this by myself!

The WeaponsHD Project

...and this time, for real!

Last post update: November 12th 2016

​Concepts for Singles pack now finalized!

You all know me well by now so let's cut to the chase right away. I'm a freelance model and texture artist who joined you two years ago. Being completely silent for the past year, I was actually learning how to wrestle with life - the hardest thing we all gotta learn eventually. But things have calmed down a bit now and I'm finding more and more motivation I'd like to spend with modeling for this community! So, I kinda look at my old models and even though some deem them good, I see only rubbish. That's why I will restart the project and complete it with careful thinking and endless restarted routines if I'll have to. Nothing less then the best is acceptable from now on! CAUSE JKA DESERVES NO LESS THAN THIS, HECK YEAH! *calms down*

So, the plan stays roughly the same with the addition that I'm gonna solve our problem and just recreate ALL WEAPONS IN GAME! Sabers + Guns included!

Plans/Already done:                                            (Please keep in mind I might not be doing my packs in the order written here! I'm really thrilled about seeing new guns already.)
- Update to the HD Lightsaber Blades DONE
- The Outcast (Kyle's Lightsaber) DONE
- The Stinger (Reborn Lightsaber) DONE
- The Prodigal Son (Luke's Lightsaber) DONE
- The Sith Pack (Tavion's, Alora's, Rosh's and Desann's lightsabers + Sith Sword and Scepter) DONE
- Single Lightsabers
- Staff Lightsabers
- Throwables pack
- Guns pack

@@AshuraDX If people could get an orgasm from looking at models, I'd totally have one right now!

But of course, I'm sorry if I said anything too harsh. I'd love to see a JKHub tournament one day!

Wow, this is some seriously fascinating stuff written in here. I used to try and prove dual sabers could also be good. These past few weeks I found out a single saber might be better.. but still. I like to be different. A shame JKA Multiplayer is more or less dead now.

I can get you a menu editor and a texturer (me). AshuraDX is far better than me at this point but I'm trying my best as well!

I clicked "Other" because I always liked to make the first rancor stage into a boss fight. He respawns each time you kill him and I just LOVED using force speed and slashing him up quickly, then try my best to get away from him and do it all again.

Hey just wanted to say that CamSP isn't compatible with JK:Enhanced. Namely, an error pops up saying it can't find the CamSP menu, even though i've installed it the same way as on the base JKA. Strange, I tried to fix this myself but didn't succeed.

Maybe start a new thread to keep it clean

Can I ask for your help then, please? I wanna copy the content of the first post to the new topic and once I'm done, I'd like to ask you to delete this one, but there's one more problem... most of my submitted mods have this link for their support thread put in. So if we change it, I'd need to edit all of those submitions! :S that seems kind of a drag...
