How might we be able to see how our texture looks on the model itself, as well as in-game?

The only true, solid reason why I would never recommend an iPhone over an Android (or any Apple product, really) is the ludicrous price. Seriously, you guys. An Xperia Ray with a 32gb sd card cost me less than half the price of a technologically inferior iPhone 4S, even after it was given a 20% discount. Everything else is a matter of opinion. There are better looking Androids out there, but some people really like the iPhone's look. While an iPhone is probably easier to use when it's the first smartphone you've ever owned, Android isn't some sort of UI hellbeast that you need to perform arcane rituals to open a menu. Admittedly, Android does have issues with the wide range of phones and their specs, as well as the fact that the iOS is easier to code for, since you deal with a slim range of OS versions and specs. But seriously, you guys, Apple's shit is priced like they need to orphan someone every time an iThing comes off the assembly line.

The hud.menu/cgame/menu does everything based on a 640x480 screen space, hence the stretching that occurs.

If you tell the .menu file to render the HUD with a smaller width, the stretching will compensate and you'll end up with a normal-sized HUD.

I'm not entirely sure about this, but getting the HUD to render right could just be all in the hud.menu file. You would need to edit the size that the engine renders it at. Either some simple math or trial-and-error should give you what you need.

I might look into it later.

Just out of idle curiosity, which one of the four models is the people's favorite?

Also, the infinite dash idea fell through. Can't get the sequence to loop, so now I'm trying to figure out another animation that can be looped and triggered easily, without removing the ability to run and walk.

Wow! Nice job! Excellent work! Are they all one model, like the jedi_hm file, or are they 4 different models?

It's one model, but the upper and lower parts aren't switchable.

What's up with the line going down the center of the face, surely you noticed that before getting it all in game and everything.

The face is mirrored and the texture doesn't have enough padding yet, so the seam shows up at longer distances. It will be taken care of once I've convinced myself that no, I don't need a new head for this guy.

And since it's become sort of a habit of mine, he comes with his own saber hilt!

There's still stuff to be done. Not exactly happy with some of the animations and trying to get a constant dash to replace one of the dodge animations. We'll see how that turns out.

The wait shouldn't be long now. It's been vegetating on my hard drive for quite a while, waiting for me to find something else wrong with it and I'm running out of stuff that's wrong with it.

He looks plenty pissed.

You could lose a lot of edges from the torso, mainly the stomach area, if you collapsed a few edge rings. And I think I'm seeing two edge loops very close together on both sides of his crotch. I take it that's intentional?

Some of you might remember this as the drag queen I "showed off" a really frickin' long time ago on the JKFiles forums. Others might not. Anyway, it's finally gotten to the point where ol' Jose might actually be pleased with his modeling work on this one, so now I'm really gonna show it off. BEHOLD!

There's also the other thing. The thing that's taken me longer than the modeling and texturing of all four of those put together. The animations. New stances for single saber and dual styles, new running and walking animations and new jumps and flips. And new Force Push, Grip and Lightning animations. And the medium style basic strikes redone from scratch as backhand strikes, complete with transitions. And the run, walk, jump, flip, Force and roll animations have forehand and backhand versions. What, other than the rest of the Force powers, am I missing?

Having two sites with such similar urls will cause problems so, in order to avoid confusion and in the interests of fairness, we should nuke both sites and relocate them to new addresses. Doesn't matter which one was first, what matters is that people will come here when they want jkhub.net and go there when they want jkhub.org. Things like that will cause mass confusion and civic unrest and in order to nip such issues in the bud we must act now. The only prudent course of action is to destroy both sites and rebuild them with new urls.
