Those screenshots are from the old version of 3DS Max that I'm working with. That's the best it can do in terms of preview. In-game there is smoothing, of course. But this preview shows you the topology better.

Hahaha! Not sure even about that... The one from EY4 is not so cocky and whiny... XD I would love to see Rosh's lines turned into something that resembles the rivalry between Ahsoka Tano and Barriss Offee. Something that is more realistic with the Dark Side turn, that makes more sense. I would gladly volunteer to write his new script/lines, but I can't voice act them.

I can't believe how today's news would be so behind the times to be discussing this topic with such outdated views! Incredible! Obviously none of those women have ever played a video game since the 80s. Both the design of the games and the market has changed tremendously since then. On topic, I've encountered this comment from people I got to know personally -- that if you're a computer guy/girl, and you "hack" (mod or code), that you are potentially a dangerous criminal. The problem is stupidity like this from the media is absorbed so easily into people's consciousness. People tend to view the news as an official and creditable source even these days, when in fact they are far from it. When are we going to learn that the news is full of stupid nonsense?! As Faith Connors said in Mirror's Edge: "It's not news anymore, it's advertising." -- or more like infotainment in the real world. Just a bunch of nonsense thrown together and exaggerated to cause unnecessary excitement over normal things.

Romero, you're a legend! I totally agree. Why not? If we're spending so much time developing something, even if it's done with and for passion, why not be awarded for our efforts financially? Everyone's gotta live, and money makes living possible.

Think of the hyperdrive as a common accessory in our household. That will give you a clearer picture. I'm sure there would be technological advances in the world of Star Wars, and here have been a few Clone Wars episodes that hint there are scientists that are busy working even in the world of Star Wars. It's just that technological devices/appliances that have reached a common and widely accepted use don't change so much. Being a highly technologically advanced world, what seems hi-tech to us is quite common use to its people, and technology that has been refined to that high level and use would be something that, even if updated or changed in some (smaller) ways in its design, would still remain fundamentally, in its function, the same. Also, most of Star Wars' history is about times of war. During wide-scale war the only technology that develops is weapons technology. And there have been plenty of examples of hi-tech weapon advancement throughout most Star Wars stories.

Actually, I think that's the only really irritating thing about him. And the gel hairdo -- which a reskin can easily fix. Otherwise he makes for an interesting student companion/rival. I agree, it's his voice and cocky taunts that drive people shiz. I would love to play the game with Rosh's lines properly re-recorded (in good quality) by another actor, where he is given a more realistic student/rival act. It's a lot of work, but it'd be one of the greatest fan mods that ever happened to JKA.

Waaaah! This is way too adorable to handle!

Sorry, I've just been busy with other things... If anyone's interested in helping me shade her back, arms, and hands, and maybe work on her face texture, let me know. I'm not so great with shading...

Stay away from saberlocking on a server. I heard it's buggy/traffic-heavy and it breaks things. At least it used to be.... not sure if it still is... (with OpenJK?)

Fixed the eyes and nose on the model, added the (removable) 3D pouch to the back, reshaped her back (to add an elegant crease at the spine), and almost finished skinning her boots -- they put up a fight. I'll see if I can get some screenies up... Also, did a test run in single-player today, and the result was interesting. A Togruta Jaden adds a new visual touch to the story.

A couple of JK funnies:

"I'm a great Jedi!" Oh Rosh, what would we do without you? *clears throat* But seriously! The time has come to put an end to Rosh Penin!

At first it seemed that way to me, too. But then the cyber-bullying started. We couldn't role-play our characters properly because the staff and the experienced members kept interrupting and taking us on wild 'missions' that made no role-play sense and turned our characters into rabbits to be hunted down, passive (locked in) bystanders in a role-play we were not allowed to understand, and locked away in prison for reasons that made absolutely no sense only so the elite could play their story. The end result is that I can't play my character anymore because she'd been twisted by all these ridiculous experiences into something I can no longer feel with. As a player I have experienced emotional trauma, utter confusion, and genuine shock while playing with this community.

Don't waste your time. @@Luckxzs is a nice person, and I appreciate what he's trying to do, but the leaders of this clan are utterly despicable elitists. Only join if you like kicking people around, or being kicked around. Otherwise I advise staying as far from it as possible...

I've found evidence that confirms my strong suspicion. The howlers of Yavin 4 are a direct link between the development of the comics and the video game: Source: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Howler

Well if the computer froze, then that sounds like a graphics card (driver) issue to me.

http://www.starwars.com/video/the-bad-batch-star-wars-the-clone-wars-story-reel What a great episode! I can't believe it got canned...

I like the capsule design, but I feel the current textures are kind of messing it up...

I LOVE that visual transition -- from child to adult! Brilliant!!! And the expression on the faces of General Windu's companions made me laugh. Damn, I'm so looking forward to the next issue! You got me hooked, @@Kualan! *shakes fist*

That's because that tutorial is teaching you the wrong thing for this work, @@Asgarath83. You need to create a TGA (not PNG!) image, and it needs to have an alpha channel. It doesn't matter what colour the background is, whether transparent or not, as long as you colour the invisible area on your alpha channel totally black. Black on the alpha channel tells the game to make that part of the image invisible, and white makes it fully rendered/visible, while the gray shades in-between will give you a semi-transparent look.

I found a few of the abridged Dracula and Frankenstein audio drama re-tellings are a lot more interesting, actually, and still get the main plot and message across. I've also tried to read Dracula and failed -- and I am actually a fan of the journal format! So don't feel bad about it. I think a lot of the original novel's charm is lost in this day and age, actually. If you've enjoyed the themes behind Dracula, The Picture of Dorian Gray is a fascinating read. Chances are you won't be able to put it down.
