  1. Bad trend: most new games are unmoddable. Are there any mods for TFU? No. For Deus Ex HR? No. Mass Effect 3? No... New Battlefront? ...

      And I'm not really sure you can consider gun skins modding for CS:GO either :|

      Yeah, MD3 models are a bit weird in how they're set up.

      Basically the MD3 version is used for the first person view. There's a _hand.md3 for each model which has all the tags on it. Then there's model.md3, which is the actual gun model, and _1.md3 and _2.md3 for each LOD.

       

      Basically what you'll want to do is add a *flash and *hand tag for the guns. Actually the tags are set up the same way on the GLM as they are for sabers, they just have less tags. I would reco...

      Thanks to you all! Actually a tutorial about sabers helped on the aspect of tags. I must say, that the only thing which is beyond me for now is the model coordinates. The blaster stays either some distance from the hand or is reversed... Even if I try to rotate the md3 first, it doesn't help much. That's the issue now.

  3. What's your native language?

  4. Armitage Hux? Really? What kind of name is that?

      These names aren't very common. At least I met some of these names only on a few occasions. Kyle Katarn isn't purely Star Wars name either (Kyle is in Terminator for instance). It's just that some names sound better and closer to fantasy story, than others. Armitage doesn't sound that good like Wilhuf Tarkin. However Episode IV had a few characters very much with Earth-like names too, including the Imperials in the Death Star round room.

      Kyle and Luke are EXTREMELY common English names. They might not be common in your country but I have met at LEAST over 30 Lukes and definitely over 50 Kyles in my lifetime so far. :P Leia is not as common, but I've met one and I have heard of 1 (havent met).

      I know that. Luc Besson is a famous person, and his is also Luke in some ways :) I were saying, that some names sound better and closer to fantasy stories, than others. Luke is probably one of those, because John, Jack and Jake aren't the names that I hear here and there all the time, but I know, that they are widespread both in real life and literature. And for this reason and perhaps several more, they sound more Earth-like. Luke isn't very original, but it worked to become iconic i...

      That's not even close to being an accurate comparison. It would be more accurate if saying "stuff that happened in the fifth century was of major importance to World War 2" because there's hundreds of years of difference.

      @Circa - In all my time playing kotor annually, I had never once thought that remaking the game was possible. I almost want to try my hand at it myself, but I'm in over my head.

      Eezstreet, I were comparing the SWTOR Cold and Great Galactic war with the events of the SWTOR DLC, which are the new war with the Empire of Zakuul.

      In various posts I often said, that Jar Jar should be considered a jester, a joker of sort. Most of the classic literature had this kind of character, stupid, silly or just funny. But Jesters as goofy as they might seem, often are the only ones to speak the truth (in presence of the kin). We see this moments before Amidala decides to leave Coruscant, as the gungan is the only one to say, why the Naboo and his people don't befriend each other. Also in Episode II it is Jar Jar who puts the...

      ...first stone into building the Empire. Besides we have Jar Jar in many other films, their own kind. In Krull it's Ergo, the wizard, in Death Note it's Amane Misa, in Dungeons and Dragons it's Eric, while in Ducktales it's Launchpad McQuack. For me Jar Jar also serves as an important contrast for Amidala and Palpatine, each of whom also come from Naboo, but are remote in behaviou and attitude from each other as well.

      Well, I'm sure they'll find a way to work around it, perhaps another master server similar to the way JKHUB did it? Either that, or Hamachi and Tunngle for everyone...

      It will be, March 7th.

       

      Onysfx, that's the point of Netflix. You stream movies and TV shows. Like a rental service, except you get unlimited access essentially. If you want to download them, use Amazon or iTunes. :P

  10. There is a theory, how Luke's lightsaber ended in Maz Kanata's hands. But I thought, the hilt was actually sucked away from the City and into the clouds and gas of Bespin... Thoughts?

      My one and only conclusion to Jar Jar's story is under a pile of rocks, buried alive by Rosh after being abandoned on the desert planet. Jedi Academy Re-Edited FTW.

      What I said is widespread amongst theologians as well. Earthly goods are fleeting, the breakdown of the body is inevitable and happiness is only found in the afterlife. Whether I accept this story or that one makes no difference for the way life goes.

      In any case, @Onysfx I don't believe in any deities. If there are any gods, they are either incompetent or cruel. In both cases worship is not warranted. The Greeks and Romans understood that.

      Your comments are my opinion exactly. If we remember old Canon, the Imperial Palace was a very legendary place, full of stories, etc, while the Jedi Temple during the Empire was a living monument to the collapse of the Jedi and a Restricted area with obsolete corridors and ravaged hallways. I would like to think, that the Emperor still lived in the Imperial Palace, set separately from the Temple, while the latter could also be called the Imperial Palace, but in terms of jurisdiction and secur...

      Yes, Star Wars website is the only source. Surely the quality not as good, but keep in mind - it's an unfinished version, etc. I feel, that it's high time the shows get rid of the "seasons schemes", and just release episodes without any planned project. This is how they can complete these episodes with Utapau and make another great story.

      Putting "hub" at the end of something meant to be the "center" is common. Definitely coincidence that another community had the same name, otherwise I'm sure Caelum would have thought of a different name.

      Though not directly, but you are right, that YV are indeed mentioned in KOTOR. Canderous was lucky to have survived the encounter and the first in the Galaxy to meet them.

      I vaguely recall using a fix to help with the crashes, but on the other hand, gog is known to release custom fixes, so there's certainly hope they'll do something about it.

      No problems with running the game from GOG. I've already bought several games from there, though this is the first SW game I acquired.
