Ok guys, So it's been a while since we've had a NEW model of Kylo Ren.. And personally, although we do have 2 or 3 very good versions out there already, with Kualan's and Kylo Ren's respective models, from a few months back and also dark_apprentice's maskless/helmetless version (which does have a couple of in-accuracies). I think we certainly, could do with a NEW, *more updated* version, now the movie's out in theaters. So I figured now we have more sources to go on and what not, it'd be a great chance for someone to release a NEW, updated version of him, if they're interested.. I also thought I'd throw in these sources (below), for anyone wanting to create him and get him as accurate as possible.. Very best of luck to you!

And also.. I, personally, wouldn't have used "Duel of the Fates" as background music.

Yeah, that's fair enough.. Well, you do what you think best. I'm sure it should come out well, either way. At least then though, I'll be able to get rid of AshuraDX's and Xeby's two versions, from my downloads. You need both of their files to make it work properly. So it'll be nice and refreshing, to only have to use 2 files from within one mod (if that's the way it's gonna go). This was their attempts: http://jkhub.org/files/file/2214-kylo-rens-lightaber-adx/ and the 2nd file you needed to make it work (properly) http://jkhub.org/files/file/2218-kylo-ren-sith-unstable-saber-sw-episode-7/

Ahh.. I see. That part about; "The only problem is because I changed the blade effect for red, it will change it globally. So everyone with a red blade will have that effect.". I see where you're coming from now. Unless, there's some way you can make it so that only Kylo's saber has that "unstable" saber effect? If not, then I'll leave you to decide which is best. I'd agree that it'd be a little weird, with other enemies in the game (Reborn's, for example) having the same saber effect as Kylo's hilt.

Yeah, I think it would probably work out a bit better actually. I just thought that, if you can have one .pk3 file with everything included (blade effect, sounds.. the works. etc.) and one .pk3 file without. It would be easier to differentiate between the two and it'd also be a little less confusing and you're not moving multiple files between your downloaded folder and your base folder. Me, personally.. I'd just go for the complete mod itself, especially when using it with the Kylo Ren model. 'Cos I mean, if you're gonna use Kylo's hilt, you might aswell just use his "unstable" blade effect and sounds, too. It just wouldn't seem right, otherwise. That's my thoughts on it, anyway.

Awesome! So will the first one .pk3 file: "1. This one will include the saber as well as the sounds." Include, both the new blade effect as well as the sounds and hilt? That's essentially what I'd be looking for.. To recreate the exact saber likeness from the movie, with just one file (if possible).

I agree! And personally, this is overall much better than those other two versions. @@Darth Martyr, is there any chance you could release this as just 2 .pk3 files? So that you have - .pk3 file of Saber hilt with red "unstable" blade and - .pk3 file of Saber hilt without red "unstable" blade That would be a much easier and better way of doing it, rather than adding additional .pk3 files on top of what you currently already have. Can I just make a suggestion though.. In the image shown (below).. The length of the blade is a little too long and could certainly do to be shortened a little. Other than that I can't fault it at all.

Oh, don't get me wrong.. I'd be all for an Ep. 7 mod, as long as it has nothing to do with the Multiplayer. Personally, I'm not a fan of the Multiplayer. Much prefer Single Player stuff. But I do think that @GPChannel is in the process of doing an Ep. 7 mod, currently, anyway.. So will be interesting to see what he comes back with, when it's done.

Don't forget the Flametrooper, either.. But not sure who'd they'd replace in the base SP game, though. Obviously the Snowtrooper would replace the Imperial Snowtroopers on the Hoth mission and this Stormtrooper would replace the default Stormtrooper, but not too sure where the Flametrooper would fit in ..

I concur.. Would definitely love to see a NEW, **updated** Kylo Ren player model, with his "unstable" saber and hilt and sounds, if possible.

I dunno if it's just me.. But can anyone else see a resemblance to Kaley Cuoco, in Aayla Secura's face?

Yeah, I concur.. The situation is bad enough as it is, without making matter's worse.

Is there any news, as far as the next version of Luke goes, @@DT85? Or are you waiting til' after the holiday season to continue working on it?

@@MattFiler To be honest, Matt.. I'm sitting on the fence on this one, so taking more of a neutral stance on the whole thing, so to speak. However, some might argue that it.. (Evolution of Combat IV) shouldn't have been released in the first place, due to the reasons stated in this thread/topic (..And to some extent, I agree), but from what I've played of it myself, it wasn't even ready to be released. It's clearly still in the development stages. Because currently, it's a broken mess. None of the Galaxy Maps load up, when you've selected one, they just take you straight back to the main menu.. And you seem to be stuck in the menu's the whole time, so the mod/content never actually loads and you have to end up exiting out of it, because in a nutshell.. It doesn't work. Again, I'm sure this is something that Serenity can clear up. But currently, it's 2.9GB of wasted space.

I believe @@Psyk0Sith is working on Kylo Ren.. I think he's all but confirmed it, himself. But Finn and Rey would be most welcomed. Also a hood down version of Luke, would make for a nice variation.

I don't know if it was just me.. or if anyone else was given this feeling aswell. But I certainly felt this movie was certainly trying to give off the impression of "empowering women". I mean, I'm not sexist in any way and I don't necessarily have a problem with it, at all. But with Rey being one of the main characters in the movie and diving into her (back)story (still a lot of stuff we don't know about her), it certainly gave me that vibe of.. Disney, in this instance, I think.. Of them trying to empower women, so as not to look sexist and probably done as a publicity stunt of some sort, as the Prequel and Original Trilogies were about male characters and people may have complained about the Star Wars movies being too one-sided towards males. Although, I think Captain Phasma would've at least been able to put that to rest, somewhat. I mean, even I didn't know that Captain Phasma was a woman, until like a week before the movie came out.

Can I just ask.. Why on earth are we hiding spoilers?! The thread clearly states on the first page of the topic. Even the very first post; "CAUTION: THIS THREAD CONTAINS SPOILERS" So, people already know what they're getting themselves into. Which then, gives them the choice whether they want to proceed any further or not..

This.. ^^ Because Kylo Ren is a very conflictive character.. Both physically and psychologically. He's fighting a battle all the time, to be stronger with the Dark Side and fighting against the Light Side. He kills Han (his father), because as stated by @@therfiles, he needs to rid himself of that emotional connection to his past to be able to become stronger with the Dark Side. He would do the same to his mother (Leia), given the opportunity. Even though, I could kinda' see it coming.. It was still quite shocking to see. I felt for Chewie, afterwards. He was seriously p*ssed, hence his killing spree of Stormtroopers, afterwards. I thought the ending, was very bittersweet (in a way). With Luke's appearance and Rey going in search of him. Somewhere along the line though, I think there's more to Rey than we know. I think she has some connection to Luke & Leia, than just being a random girl, trying to make her way in the world on Jakku.

Y'know what.. I could not agree more.

I'm just gonna take what you've just said as "pure trolling".. Not very good "trolling", but hey, it's the 21st Century.. So, whatever.

Well, @@Psyk0Sith.. If you ARE planning on designing a NEW model of Kylo Ren.. You've probably got everything you need for it, by now. But this should just about confirm & finalize his appearance/look, for you to get everything on him, accurate.
