This is awesome, thank you for making this!

I remember seeing a bunch of incomplete texture mods for JK2 on MODDB or other websites, never thought I'd see one that was finished

Fuck dude this one is nice 

I used an older Eradication hud for several years. I'm too attached to it to upgrade just yet, but I'll keep this just in case

Had to take a split second to realize that I wasn't on the HL2 section on Gamebannana

You even remembered to port the beta civil protection elite, good job!

This looks like something you would see in the underworld of Coruscant or Nar Shaddaa, looking more into it. It could fit for something useful later.

I've loved your maps since your "Exploration" map all the way back in 2006. For me, nothing will beat the latest update on your Expedition map, although this does come certainly close. This is another top tier map for JK2. 

Finally, now everyone in MP will learn that mom said it's my turn on the Xbox

This model looks like it has more polygons than every single base JK3 playermodel combined, exceptional work. Great translation of 2D artwork into 3D. It looks like you took at least some slight artistic liberties into your own hands with how to make this model actually be playable in the game, as I imagine trying to get his proportions right while also not looking incredibly jank must've been quite a challenge, but you did it well.

I've saw a whole bunch of the Vader redesigns by Chenthooran Nambiarooran a while ago, but I was not aware of who made them, nor of how many he made. Thank you for letting me know the author behind them. The redesigns are hit or miss, but you simply cannot deny the eye for detail and the artistic flare all of his concepts have. Here is a list of most or all of his redesigns https://www.artstation.com/artwork/48Zkl

If possible, I would love if you could contact Chethooran and have them give their opinions on your model.

I come back here for the first time in roughly 1.5 - 2 years and this is on the front page

I missed this place.

I seriously wish I knew this pack existed before I wasted time porting over the New Reborn and Reborn Twins myself on Blender. At least this saves me the trouble with some of the other models. Thanks a lot!!

I think this has to be the magnum opus of all saber mods, 15 years of work have all led up to this one single mod.

DAMN

How long did this take you to make?

Crosshairs like this were the shit back in JK2's MP. The 1.02 guys always fancied these types of things.

JKA is a little more... professional? Or at least, practical lol. The JK2 hud mods were ridiculous.

A shame, I'm guessing this mod is dead. I didn't even want any of the new stuff future additions were going to provide. I just want someone to fix the bugged out force bar and loading screens. Please, if someone could just fix those, this mod would be pefect. Until that is fixed, I can't use this anymore.

Honestly I wanted to make his cape little bit different so it has hood too and it points towards his Jedi origins. But yes I'm already in the process of porting for JKO.

I understand, I'm just asking because it looks like the connections the cape makes to the armor look kinda odd, cool as the cape is. in the JKO Movie, the cape being wrapped around the neck makes a little more sense, at least in my opinion.

Would it be possible to keep both the hood while having the cape wrap around the front?

It looks surprisingly cool, a lot more fitting for Kyle than Desann in many ways, like this should have been what his dark side ending variant looked like in DFII.

@McGroose

That picture of yours.. I'd like to see Kyle in Desann's armor uploaded 

Yes! I've been hoping someone would do this ever since I saw him wearing the cape in the movie trailer. This mod looks awesome, I just have two questions:

If you ever choose to do so, could you edit the cape so that it wraps around his lower neck like it did in the trailer or in this official movie pic?

And second, since Desann is nowhere in JKA's story and is obviously only featured in JK2, do you think you could port this model over to JK2 as well?

I really dig this, but what's with the lighting?

JK2 with max shadows turned on, JKA is a little more refined in this regard.

It's literally rough around the edges.

Hah, I love these. Looks like they were ripped right from a PS2 game or the old Mummy Returns PS1 game.

4/5

If I might ask, why do you use the old Kartoon Vader model for JK2 from 2003 instead of a newer model?

I might use this in a JK2 SP project, as this skin work is definitely better than Kartoons.

Corto, listen to me and listen to me very carefully. This is the best god damn blaster mod I've ever seen in JK2/JK3. You need to make more. This is easily on par with Ashura's or Roxoon's work. 

You need to make more replacements.

Moooooore

MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE

If I make the disruptor, I'll make the SWBF one. As for the flechette, I may dissapoint you. I don't know.

Are you referring to the Pulse cannon or the Disruptor Rifle in Battlefront? The Pulse Cannon would be a great replacement. The Disruptor Rifle would be more fitting for the DEMP7 instead of the game's sniper rifle.

I would love to see your take on the disruptor or flechette!

That Rifle model is amazing, so amazing in fact that it stands out like a sore thumb in the game. Almost makes me wonder if it's a touched up Battlefront port.

Now just gotta reskin his robe to be pink and we'll get Filthy Frank.

If I had a dollar for every polygon here, I could fund a new Jedi Knight game by myself.

Definitely a welcome addition to my game.

It looks like a dumb version of Desann's lightsaber

The saber sounds better be Joel laughing or Vinny screaming or 1/10 D:

I made something similar like this for JK2, but not JK3. Thank you for prolonging my laziness by making a JK3 version for me. Good art choices (I love McQuarrie's concept art).  .

Regular JK and OpenJK run almost exactly the same. If there is a difference, I can't really see it. There may be a slight improvement performance wise with OpenJK, but I'm not sure.

This mod uses more of my CPU than previously. I don't believe there was a ram difference.

Another bug I found relates with the missile launcher. The majority of the time, getting hit by a rocket makes me lose an expected amount of HP and shields. Sometimes though, getting hit with it in the mod makes me lose only 1 HP and 1 shield point. I think it has something to do with how far away I am from the enemy or what angle I'm facing them at. I tested this by giving the Assassin droid the missile launcher.
