    It's very unlikely someone's going to take up a large request for non-canon models unless someone is happy to spend a large portion of time to rig&weigh ported models into JKA, but I wouldn't get your hopes up. Sorry xD Samus & Zero-suit Samus already exist so i'd probably stick with that.

    Did you edit both the folder name in pakscape and the paths inside the .skin file?

    So I figured i'd start uploading some of my skins I put together (hopefully they'll be accepted lol), as i'm not really playing JKA anymore and they're just sitting on my computer getting virtual dust all over them. Athena's skin was the first, i've got a few more I need to finish up and upload. For some of them I figured I need to post a topic to see what you'll think and whether or not it will be accepted if I uploaded it, like I did a couple months ago with Kit Fisto, which I still need to get around to finishing. I tend to write a big description on my released files, so making a topic showcasing the skin is quicker for me in case it gets rejected xD I'm not a frankenstein king, and by no means am I a texture artist, I just had a lot of fun putting skins together, which turned into RGB'ing the hell out of everything to the extent that it became an obsession xD and it's time to do something with what I put together. My next skin to upload is going to be an RGB'd version of Darth Talon, with additional model parts, options and a mix of sound files. Below is a list of the icons for all the body parts: It uses ported content (SWTOR malgus mask (mesh edited to fit better), SWTOR revan hood (mesh edited to fit better), TFU darth sion shoulder guard).. i've RGB'd the mask and shoulder guard but besides that they haven't been edited necessarily.. would that count as a "no" if I uploaded this model?

    So based on Milamber's Chaos Knight model, I bring you an adaptation to this; with tribal patterns and glowing eyes... All the good stuff! When the JKGalaxies files were made publicly available and Pande made a topic about it, I had a look through them and found some cool looking female heads. We were initially going to go with a hair piece from it too, but it was very fiddly when it came to weighting and the appearance in-game with what's achievable via shaders, so Milamber worked with us and re-vamped the jedi_hf hairstyle to give a better looking ponytail and put it onto the JKG head. I can't get over how ugly that flat piece of hair is now that we have this lol, the three of us were always a good team! (just not on GTA, Mil sucks) If you haven't guessed yet, this skin was made to be someone's personal skin, for Athena from |EFF|. Her brief was basically "make me something badass" xD we talked over many ideas and this is what we came up with. For some people there may be a few too many tribal patterns on the skin, but we are both super happy with the outcome. The red and blue teams were made after the main skin was finished, and they came out even better; it felt like a brand new skin for each one as they all bring a different theme to them, like good vs evil for sure. We made this actually a good few months ago, but since she's gotten back into JKA properly again we figured it would be a good time to upload it here to JKHub so that even people outside of her clan can enjoy it and it can get the attention it deserves. There's very few cool looking female skins (no twi'leks don't count! haha), so this one should add to the ranks. It's got a new set of taunts to add to the skin; some sounds from darth talon, some from tavion, a mix of sounds to make something epic. I've got another female skin on the way soon! Any issues with the ponytail are unavoidable due to the transparency, it's as good as it's going to get with shaders. Besides that there shouldn't be any issues with the skin, at least I don't think so haha, it's been a while since i've been playing JKA so if you find anything feel free to drop me a PM and let me know so I can update it. On the first day Athena said "make me a skin", on the second day she said "I trust your majick hands" (true story).. the rest is history. Okay I tried to put something funny at the end, but it was much funnier in my head.. xD Anyways, I hope you enjoy this release, there will be more to come soon from me so keep your eyes peeled! Ruxith Now for the important bit. This skin has been created for someone specific, if you wish to modify it please contact myself, Milamber or the owner (Athena) for permission. Nobody likes it when something you put effort into looking a certain way, or when your personal skin get's taken into someone else's hands and changed into something ugly for their benefit. It's being uploaded here simply so others can see it and enjoy using it, so please respect that.

    Patience is a virtue. As I stated i'm busy at the moment, i'll post something or upload it when I find the time. Shouldn't be long now, can probably find some time again next week.
  6. Ruxith
    Looking great man!
  7. Ruxith
    Okay thanks for the replies i'll try and get around to finishing it in the next few weeks when I get some more free time and upload it. I guess I should probably try and finish that savage opress in my sig too..

    I know this is something we've wanted for a while - a kit fisto head/model that's "better" than the old versions. A couple months ago when we all started frankensteining I had the help of two modeler friends of mine mostly for the weighting, and we put this together: It's not the final design, this series of screenshots was done months ago just to test how the heads looked on the different skin variants. Some of you have seen it already, most of you haven't.. it's nothing for me to brag about because I didn't make the model (clearly xD) and the reskins are very basic.. just making sure certain patterns are aligned right for the sith version and re-testing in modview until it looks right, and an RGB version which is simple enough to create anyway. I just wanted to ask if this kind of thing is likely to be accepted if I uploaded it to JKHub before uploading it to just get rejected? I know it contains ported content so that's why I wanted to ask first.

    All you had to do was search the forum for "8T88" and you would have found the progress topic
  10. Ruxith
    Thanks for clearing that up for me xD i'm such a noob
  11. Ruxith
    Just to throw a spanner in the works, or maybe not as I don't follow up on topics enough.. xD Has this been posted yet? A variant of the helmet: Saw it on my facebook feed today

    People keep coming back to the active clan communities, i've seen it happen dozens of times just in the past couple of years. A lot of people have to quit playing because their social life or family takes control, or any personal issues.. something which can't be avoided. Some months are better than others as wellbecause of people being on school holidays etc, it fluctuates a lot.. but it's not by any means how good it was 4+ years ago, and I doubt we'll ever see that kind of activity again across the board. Modding-wise I think it's getting more popular again lately, mostly thanks to the ability for people to now be able to frankenstein without needing to fully use a modelling program, something that everyone has been wanting to do for custom skins FOR YEARS! xD I'd love to see your Modview finished though, I spend half of my "modding" time making promotion images, posters etc and having a better program to use it with (mostly things like transparency to fully work as intended in the model viewer, and viewing shaders) would encourage people to broaden their "modding" a lot more I think.. especially when they can see shaders etc outside of the game and for it to be straight-forward (I know about EffectsED or however it's called, but I took one glance and closed it again). I remember in the beginning when I would take screenshots from in-game and meticulously cutting around the player model xD Or if we encouraged people more to use the programs so anyone can perhaps, I know there's tutorials but people are lazy. I think modding is getting more activity lately though for sure. I'd love for JKHub to have a section under names for members to have their clan displayed in colours, or their clan logo or something, and for people to all contribute together and for it to really feel like a close hub/community rather than the same people posting all the time and the same people stalking the topics xD

    Beard. Beards?! You can make some pretty cool beards using Jose's Hawk model as a base and adjusting the shape. If you ever want to release something from it you'll have to ask for his permission though ofc the pic above was a while ago when I was figuring out frankensteining.
  14. Ruxith
    Better banners promote better business.. especially when there are lens flares included at no extra cost! They are cool, down to earth bunch of people in the community, give them a shot if you're looking for a clan or simply people to play with
  15. Ruxith
    You can PM me about shaders too @@JAWSFreelao And we need to talk about those ugly skin icons xD
  16. Ruxith
    Did you tweak the vertices on the model (the dots when you are in edit mode)? Sometimes if you move them it can cause the error (I think), but it's mostly if you add/remove any of them then it doesn't like it. What specifically did you "tweak"? I encountered this error mostly when I move the verts wrong or try adding new ones.
  17. Ruxith
    Security xD nice try! Laziness is a bad practice, even with frankensteining It will only bring you more errors when you start making more complicated things, trust me xD
  18. Ruxith
    The jetpack's pretty low on the back of the bothan model @@JAWSFreelao and there's a few missing model tags not listed in your .skin file (the errors for missing parts that appear when you load it up in modview). The kalani skin is interesting though xD but it has the same issue with the missing model tags in the .skin file. I feel like the chest guard parts feel a bit too big on him though.

    More information about ""
    Oops.. sorry for the late reply. They're a variation of reskins I made/skins friends from clans I was in used over the years.. I don't have any links for them sorry.
  20. Ruxith
    Replace it with another .efx file? Or find a jetpack mod which uses a different effect or none at all, and use that .efx file.
  21. Ruxith
    Damn it Kualan. xD I did a similar thing with the helmet a while ago, except mine was solely the tie pilot's helmet; a friend worked with me to cut a hole for the head to fit in xD I just never finished the model variants and such.
  22. Ruxith
    Love the shadows on the first pic of the 3
  23. Ruxith
    I don't mean to try and rain on your parade or anything, it's a really good effort so far, but do you know that there's already a JAR model of starkiller? For some reason I thought it was made by Jose Carlos.. but it looks like it it was done by Kobra judging by the file name of this picture.
  24. Ruxith
    People would need to download a file if it's not part of the base selection, or the hidden skins that I have linked, however even those would appear without an actual icon unless they downloaded the file too or made an icon for it themselves. It's always going to be client-side when it's not a part of the base assets or something that you download when you visit a server (No one likes downloading pk3's when visiting a server though )
  25. Ruxith
    There are pk3's people have put together to add all of the "hidden skins" into the multiplayer menu, if that's what you're referring to. A bit of googling should find it with the right keywords, otherwise you can just download this. The icons aren't great, but it serves a purpose. I didn't make these by the way, just offering them to save you searching.
