Quite an interesting month! OPERATION: KNIGHTFALL REMAKE As reported in the previous report, the 3rd gameplay level was said to be done, with only a few minor bugs to take care of. I'm pleased to report that those bugs have been ironed out and I've been able to move on to the next level. The 4th level is by far the largest level in the entire campaign both in terms of length and location. As of writing this, I'd estimate that about half of the level has been ironed out, with one of the worst bugs present being fixed at last! There are a few more things to iron out, but I'm hopeful that after this level is completed, Knightfall will be very close to release (for real this time!). NPC SYSTEM Literally as I was typing this section of the report I decided to finally program the ability to make any NPC speak any audio file you want. This should be a great tool for machinima makers. JEDI KNIGHT ENHANCED FIXES Thanks to the talented people at Jedi Knight: Enhanced, we have been able to implement a number of quality improvements to the mod, primarily for those with Widescreen displays. Cutscenes from the original game (and Jedi Outcast for that matter) will no longer suffer from the black bars in cutscenes cutting off parts of the cutscene shots and should appear as they did in the original game with minimal difference. Furthermore, text areas will appear more appropriate and the HUD will no longer stretch! So again a huge thank you to the Jedi Knight: Enhanced team for inventing these fixes. SOCIAL MEDIA If anyone has followed us on Facebook or Instagram in the past you might notice that we rarely post on either platform, and we've come to the decision to drop both pages. Facebook was moreorless forced on us as we are flagged for "violating the community guidelines" which was utter BS. Despite efforts to appeal this, they refused to listen. This, in addition to our utter inactivty on Instagram, has ultimately made us decide to drop Facebook and Instagram completely, and we'll only be available here on JKHub, Discord, Moddb, and YouTube. CONCLUSION Knightfall is coming along well and we also implemented a few quality fixes which should've been added a long time ago (but better late than never, right?). I'm hopeful that Knightfall should be completed during June, then we'll focus on adding every character we've announced so far, then we'll have ourselves an update! This has not been the easiest updateto work on, with these past several months causing me personally multiple cases of burnout, but I am very excited to keep moving forward with this mod and delivering this remake that's been years in the making. I do want to offer my sincerest apologies to those that have been disappointed with the length of time the Knightfall remake (and Father vs. Son and Deathstar Rescue for that matter) has taken to develop. I hope with the conclusion of this update's development that we will approach announcing new things with more caution instead of forcing you to wait an indeterminate amount of time after we announce something. Regardless, thank you for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you.

Finally back to making progress reports again! Yay! Don't ever move my friends, it's very stressful. OPERATION: KNIGHTFALL During the course of this month, more work was done on Operation: Knightfall, and the 3rd gameplay level has been completed for the most part, with a few minor bugs to iron out. Despite this, this level should be completed in the near future. MORE CHARACTERS And as before I received a pretty sizable number of characters to bring into the mod. The following is a list of new characters I've been suggested recently which will be coming in the next update. ANCIENT SITH - Ajunta Pall - Darth Andeddu - Lord Dramath GALACTIC REPUBLIC - Sio Bibble SEPARATIST ALLIANCE - Sev'rance Tann REBELLION - Blue Squadron Pilot - Luke Skywalker (Pilot) (Updated Model) - Rodian Pilot NEW REPUBLIC - New Republic Guard GALACTIC EMPIRE - Adalric Cessius Brandl IMPERIAL REMNANT - Praetorian Guard OTHER UPDATES Additional work was done on the code side of the mod as well which should see to the fixing of a few bugs which have plagued the mod (and even the base game for that matter) for a long time. The game should no longer crash when loading a save game containing a vehicle which was spawned from the console It will be possible to progress through the force power selection menu during the Jedi Academy campaign even if all force powers were maxed out via the "setForceAll" command The game will no longer attempt to apply the last skin used when changing characters via the playermodel console command Trip mines will now be granted to the player when they're selected in the weapon selection menu during the Jedi Academy campaign. CONCLUSION It's been good to return to the mod and we're really looking forward to bringing more stuff to you all. There are of course other things that we're working on but I'm not quite comfortable to show them off just yet. Thank you for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you.

The close-up of Jaden's eye while being confronted by Kyle made me think that maybe they considered giving Jaden yellow eyes in that particular instance, would've been cool to see. Actually some unused code I found did indicate that they planned on having Jaden's saber turn red during those final levels (but obviously that didn't happen).

Hey everyone! So as the title said, there is not going to be a progress report for the month of March. The reason for this is because over the course of this month and February, I have been in the process of moving. There have been other factors which have distracted me from working on this wonderful mod which I'm not comfortable (or permitted) to talk about, but long story short this month has been ridiculous. With the reality of the move setting in, especially now that as of writing this I will be moving at the end of next week, all gears have been shifted to packing up my home and the mod (and even gaming in general) has been an afterthought. After the move is completed, I will be back to work in full swing. To give a quick summary of the progress made this month. The 2nd gameplay level of Operation: Knightfall's remake is completed and both the 1st and 2nd levels are currently undergoing script overhauls which shouldn't take too long. Lwkill has been hard at work at the long-awaited Escape from Theed mission and Basil Bonehead and I had the opportunity to play the level. We had a lot of fun with this first playthrough and think it's a very well designed representation of the level from the Episode 1 game. Again, I'm sorry about the lack of a detailed report for this month and I hope the April one will be more exciting. Also don't forget that our April Fools event will be live for one day on April 1st with a small alteration to Darth Maul's extended ending story with Duel of the Fates! Again I'm sorry for the lack of report, but life happens. Thank you for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you. TL;DR: Process of moving has made working on the mod difficult and I should be back to normal in April. Knightfall and Escape from Theed are coming along well and both have hit milestones in development.

Thank you! I love writing about them as well!

Thank you! Yeah, Lwkill (our mapper) was very passionate about getting this recreation right. I hope you'll enjoy playing on it!

This month hasn't been the most exciting, but we're still getting closer to our goal! OPERATION: KNIGHTFALL Progress continued on the Operation: Knightfall remake. Recently the 2nd gameplay level of the remake has been released to the team for testing. So far initial testing has shown promise, though there are a number of bugs to be ironed out. However, these bus should be fixed very quickly and we can move on to the 3rd gameplay level very soon. The Operation: Knightfall remake is designed to show off areas of the Jedi Temple never seen before or only hinted at in other novelizations. Though some locations will bring you to familiar areas, other areas of the temple may not be so easily recognizable. MORE CHARACTERS We also spent some time this month gathering up more characters for you to play with, here's a small list of them that should be coming to the mod in the next update. Narkina V Imperial Officer Kino Loy Narkina V Prisoner Grohto Darth Krayt (Updated Model) Naboo Guard (Battlefront) Hanharr 8t88 Vana Sage Skohani Ren Eleena Daru Kaevee Rebel Vanguard Rebel Smuggler As always, we're always looking for new characters, if you have any suggestions, please post the character you'd like to submit along with a link to the character. COMMUNITY QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS I'd like to attempt to interact with the community more often, so this month I'll be taking any questions and will answer every single one in the March progress report. If you have any questions for us (or want to ask something silly), please fill out the below Google form. If we get plenty of questions from the community for next month's report, we'll keep going! LINK: https://forms.gle/PANTQw8MGBuad8wr5 CONCLUSION This month hasn't been the most active one as substantial changes have occurred in my personal life which have prevented me or exhausted me to the point where I couldn't work on the mod as much as I'd like to. The month of March will likely be the same with things hopefully settling down by the end of the month. I will continue my side of development during this time as best as I can, but please understand if the next progress report is lacking in content. Regardless, thank you for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you.

I know this is a fairly old topic, but I wanted to put this one to rest. I just went inside the code and the game is in fact not programmed to read the force power level in the if statements at this time.

Hope the first month of 2023 has been good to you all! Let's get started! OPERATION: KNIGHTFALL REMAKE Much of the month of January has been focused on ironing out bugs from the initial build of the remade Operation: Knightfall mission. As the original author has been unable to complete this work, I volunteered to finish what he started. As of typing this report, the first of the gameplay levels has been completely ironed out and is at a quality we can deem to be finished. Production on fixing up the next level has begun, with this level appearing to be the most complex to fix. Primarily we are introducing a small puzzle to the level and one boss fight has to be completely reworked. SPOILERS FOR TALES OF THE JEDI BELOW With the recent release of the Tales of the Jedi mini-series, we all learned the ultimate canonical fate for Jedi Master Yaddle (the female of Yoda's species). While Knightfall was in development, Yaddle's fate had not been confirmed, and though she was confirmed to have died between Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones in Legends, we felt that since Yaddle had no canonical fate that we would use her as a boss fight in Operation: Knightfall's remake. With the release of Tales of the Jedi, we are now having to completely remake the boss battle and use an entirely different character. We mentally prepared ourselves for this, so we will make our adjustments. After all we don't want people going END SPOILERS We suspect that the remaining gameplay levels should be relatively easy to clean up and we're looking forward to bringing this mission to you all after years of promise. ESCAPE FROM THEED We've also teased over the past few years another mission which unfortunately has taken us a long time to deliver. Escape from Theed. Inspired by the Episode I video game, players will experience a re-imagining of Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Jar Jar Binks's infiltration in the now-occupied city of Theed. The author, Lwkill, reports that development on this mission is nearing completion. Similar to Operation: Knightfall, Escape From Theed will feature multiple gameplay levels. NEW CHARACTERS We have lined up a massive amount of new and updated characters to bring to the mod in the next update. Below is the current list, please keep in mind that this list is subject to change at any time. The new characters being added will also bring in two brand new factions to Galactic Legacy; Unaligned Force Users and Zann Consortium.

Kueller YUUZHAN VONG - Vong Priestess INFINITIES - Darth Vader (Redeemed) - Inquisitor Starkiller (New variant to Infinities Starkiller) - Leia Organa (Sith Apprentice) - Rebel Friend POSSIBLE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Q: What are Unaligned Force Users? A: Unaligned Force Users are a faction consisting of beings who use the Force, but primarily only serve themselves or are part of a faction that isn't currently expanded on. Q: Why is Tenebrae listed under Ancient Sith Empire? Tenebrae, Vitiate, and Valkorion are the same person, so why aren't they variants? A: I am currently debating on this, but Valkorion will likely remain. Please let me know your thoughts, I'd love to hear them. Q: The Dread Masters left the Empire, why are they listed under them instead of their own? A: The Dread Master's Empire, the Dread Host, primarily consisted of brainwashed Imperials and Sith of the Reconstituted Sith Empire. It didn't make too much sense to make a separate faction for them. Q: Why is N-K Necrosis a variant of General Grievous rather than his own character? A: He was made from Grievous's body and had no other affiliations. Wookieepedia claims that N-K Necrosis was affiliated with the Empire because of the scientist that created him, but N-K's existence canonically was too short-lived for him to have any meaningful affiliation. Q: Why is Zsinj listed under Galactic Empire? A: Because he was loyal to the Empire prior to making his own. Zsinj's empire would only consist of the Raptor Troopers and himself. Q: Will Ninth Sister behave like the other Inquisitors? A: Yes Q: Why is Niles Ferrier listed under Imperial Remnant? A: He worked with Thrawn in 9 ABY in the Legends continuity and is not listed on Wookieepedia as having any other affiliations (that he was loyal to). Q: WHY TF ARE YOU ADDING ROSE TICO?!!!!! SHE'S THE WORST CHARACTER EVER! A: Because we can Q: Why are some SWTOR companions assigned to the Eternal Alliance but others aren't? A: Some companions in SWTOR only join the Eternal Alliance depending on the character you're playing as. Only companion characters that are guaranteed to join would be assigned if we have their correct appearance. If we got Kira Carsen and Lord Scourge's appearances from the Onslaught expansion in SWTOR, they would be moved to Eternal Alliance. Lana Beniko is being moved from Reconstituted Sith Empire to Eternal Alliance for this reason. Q: Why is Silri listed under Zann Consortium instead of Nightsisters? A: Because she is a hero unit for the Zann Consortium and her only depiction is in Empire at War fighting for them. Q: Rebel Friend is coming? Are we adding LEGO Characters now? A: The Rebel Friend will not be LEGO. The author designed him to appear true to life.

Happy new year! I hope you've all had a great holiday season. There's a few things to go over so let's get started! OUR LATEST UPDATE On December 28th, we released an update seeing to an overall improvement to several menus in the mod. To be perfectly honest, this was not an update that should've taken so long, but this was a very painful update that nobody enjoyed working on. However, it was a necessary step to be taken. We understand that this update has no new content, and I do sincerely apologize for that, and I want our next one to be overflowing with content! Currently, we do not have a Mac or Linux build available, due to unforeseen compilation errors. We're currently looking into the cause and hope to have builds available as soon as possible. UPCOMING MAPS Our mapper Lwkill has been hard at work these past few months on some passion projects of his own. We're really looking forward to bringing these to you. The Executor Venator Bridge Deathstar II Hangar Bay THE ROAD AHEAD Since our last few updates have been rather lackbuster in terms of new content, and we've also gone silent on a few previous announcements. So I'm just going to give you a roadmap for our next update. - Operation: Knightfall remake (for real this time!) - Father vs. Son remake - All-new characters! - More????? WHAT IS GOING ON WITH OPERATION: KNIGHTFALL??? For a large portion of Galactic Legacy's time, we've constantly been teasing and showing off screenshots of the long-awaited Operation: Knightfall remake. But we have yet to deliver, we've said we're in "Final testing", we're "close to being done" but over a year later there has been no sign of this mission. What's been going on? The answer is complicated, and to answer it fully would require me to divulge personal information. What I will say however is that our development has been held up due to a number of minor (but important) bugs that we want to iron out. The author has been unable to complete this so I will be taking over for this update, and will not stop until the mission is completed. This update WILL. NOT. RELEASE. without Operation: Knightfall. You all have waited long enough. FATHER VS. SON ROADMAP On the other end of the spectrum, what about Father vs. Son? Progress is being made on the mission, only held up as I focused on fixing up the update we've just released. Now that we can continue work on the mission, everything should be moving forward at some point. Plans for this remake will be expanded beyond making a whole new mission. But the overall structure of the mission will be changed. We will also be introducing our first ever customizable mission, to allow you to experience the mission the way that you want to play it. The special editions of the original trilogy have been met with controversy over the years, and Return of the Jedi's finale has been met with a few changes that have sparked MAJOR controversy. The first change was replacing Sebastian Shaw's Force Ghost during the ending celebration with Hayden Christensen. Though this is a change I personally like, I understand that some prefer the original. The second change was making Darth Vader yell "NO!" right before he throws Emperor Palpatine to his (supposed) death. This was a change I personally do not like at all. So being introduced with this mission will be the opportunity for you all to choose these minor cosmetic things to let you enjoy the mission the way that you want to enjoy it. I'll also be introducing similar customization options in the future provided it's appropriate. I will provide more details on the mission itself as development continues. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH DEATHSTAR RESCUE??? Another mission we've neglected to talk about recently is our Deathstar Rescue mission. We released the 1st cutscene a long time ago, then failed to talk about it. Unfortunately this was a case of me getting distracted by other projects I've promised before. No progress has been made on this since its last mention in a progress report. This project has been put on hold for the foreseeable future as we work to tackle these other projects. The immediate plan as of right now will be to resume work on this mission once this update is completed. CONCLUSION 2022 has been a difficult year overall with the realization of many broken promises and lack of any real meaningful content. But we have a plan in store to make 2023 a great year. We hope to make this year the best year for Galactic Legacy, and we hope that you'll be with us every step of the way. Thank you all for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you.

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! You know what we're thankful for? All of you! (Ok that was pretty cheesy) MENU OVERHAULS This update we've really been focusing on overhauling a number of menus present in the mod. As of typing this report, many of the menus we've been planning to overhaul have been completed, with 1 or 2 more menus remaining. Primarily, the biggest changes you'll be seeing are in the Character menu. Through the magic of coding, we have the menu made so both the character and NPC spawner menus use the same files. The hope is that this change will help us to save a ton of memory and prevent the game from utilizing more memory to load in more menu items than necessary. Below are two screenshots illustrating the dual-functionality of the menu. The first screenshot shows the menu in "Character Mode", while the second screenshot shows off the same menu in "NPC Mode". The 5 faction icons you see below will be pertaining to the random Jedi and Sith NPCs we introduced many years ago, placing them in a much more convenient place. Another really cool cosmetic feature is that lightsabers can now be freely selected and applied to any character you select. Whether it's a character with a set lightsaber or someone not assigned one at all, you will now have the freedom to customize the elegant weapon from a more civilized age for any character. NPC FREE CHOICE SYSTEM This update also saw to the addition of some new and improvements to the NPC Free Choice System. To begin, a lot of optimizations to the existing code have been made. Now what does this mean for you? The player? Aside for some background stuff you'll probably never notice, we have fixed one glaring bug with the Free Choice system, which is that now NPCs with pre-set skins can now have their skins changed. The next feature (which is really cool!) is the addition of the first set of a new system of NPC Commands! For a long time, we've been asked by many people to give them the ability to further control NPCs. Now we're giving you that option! With this next update, 5 new NPC Commands will be making their way to the mod! These are: Set Animation Set Team Set Enemy Target Set Weapon Set Saber More will be coming, but I felt personally that these would be the best to start with right now. CONCLUSION We're looking forward to putting this update behind us so we can continue to put together new content. We recently posted a new Community Feedback form on our Discord server, please feel free to fill it out if you'd like to have a voice on which direction this mod should go next.

Hope you all had a great October! Let's get started! MENU OVERHAUL This month, all efforts were focused on the Character and NPC menus, and aside from some bugs needing fixing, the menus are very close to completion! Taking inspiration from the Galaxy of Heroes mobile game, we were able to code the menu to better display the character, and for Jedi and Sith alike, coded them to hold their respective sabers. Another cool thing is that now the Character and NPC menu will now share the same menu! Thus saving space! Additionally, thanks to the wonderful people at JK:Enhanced, we have also implemented the ability to manually spin around your respective character from any horizontal angle! We also coded a new feeder system so we no longer have to take up precious Menu memory space on manually inserting every single character skin, and they'll now be automatically added. Anyone wishing to modify the menu for themselves will also receive this benefit! Furthermore, we streamlined the UI and code a bit more to make accessing customization options and using them much more user friendly and engine friendly. Maybe prior CVARs coded for the NPC Free Choice System back at the mod's launch back in 2020 have seen to a major redesign. Though you, the player, may not notice anything, those of you in our community that have peeked at our source code may notice a few changes! Finally, we're introducing Lightsaber customization to the character menu! A heavily requested feature, taken from the NPC Free Choice System, you will now be able to modify your character's lightsaber to your liking, with a live display of the elegant weapon being held by your favorite character! Please note that these screenshots are from a current dev build so many things are in the works to be changed. FACTION OVERHAULS Another element we're introducing to the Character and NPC menu is better Faction Organization. Many characters were introduced to certain factions and could make it fairly difficult to find your a character you were looking for. To better organize everything (and to allow for the potential for new factions in the future!), the faction selection section of the menu has been expanded to include many other factions in the Star Wars universe! New Factions being recognized are the following: Darth Revan's Sith Empire Brotherhood of the Sith Ancient Sith Empire Rule of Two Sith New Republic Galactic Alliance Imperial Remnant Fel's Empire Darth Krayt's Empire Sith Eternal Hutt Cartel Black Sun Crimson Dawn/Shadow Collective Independent Criminals (Renamed from Criminals) Yuuzhan Vong Death Watch Clan Skirata Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders Nightsisters Revanites Eternal Alliance Eternal Empire Jedi Order Sith Order Creatures I understand that this may lead to some concern regarding the potential of even more files to download, and that installation will be an even bigger hassle with more files to keep track of. We have thought about this and have taken steps to make this impact as small as possible, deciding to treat the main pk3s as an overall generalization for characters. The following is a list of changes that will be made: Two new Faction pk3s will be introduced, JEDI_SITH; for Jedi and Sith Order characters (including the custom Jedi and Sith), and OTHER (for all other factions). The FORCE_USERS faction will be removed, and publicly released as an empty pk3 file. All factions previously in Furthermore, there are other changes that will be made regarding character re-assignments. Though some changes may be obvious, I will also list some characters that will be given new factions in the next update: Darth Maul's Sith variation has been moved from Separatist Alliance to Rule of Two Sith Maul's criminal/Rebels variations have been moved from Separatist Alliance to Crimson Dawn Savage Opress has been moved from Separatist Alliance to Crimson Dawn/Shadow Collective Talon Karrde has been moved from Criminals to New Republic (currently not pictured in the below screenshots) Ren has been moved from First Order to Crimson Dawn Gault Rennow, HK-55, and Nico Okarr have been moved from Criminals/Civilians to Eternal Alliance And more! (Full list coming later) Here are some screenshots! Again, please note that these screenshots are from a current dev build so many things are in the works to be changed (such as "Choose your Side" likely being removed) CONCLUSION It's been a busy month, and the work isn't quite finished yet, but we are close! We're still looking at other possible features we would like to include (controller support????), but for now we're making some steady progress. After this is completed, production on the Father vs. Son remake will continue (FOR REAL THIS TIME!). THank you for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you.

An interesting month, to say the least. FATHER VS. SON REMAKE This month at last saw to the beginning of production for the long-awaited Father vs. Son remake. So far, progress has been relatively smooth, with a number of improvements made to allow for a much more authentic experience. With the help of our mapper Lwkill, sound editor Commander Langz, and of course the Movie Battles II team, we have successfully begun the process of remaking the mission with a much higher standard of quality never before seen in any of our other missions. For starters, thanks to the Movie Battles II team, we have been able to remake the mission on their map depicting the Emperor's Throne Room from Return of the Jedi. We are very grateful that they are allowing us to use their map for this mission and we cannot thank them enough. Furthermore, our sound editor Commander LangZ has taken the time to use a 3rd party site to remove all background audio from the audio clips. This practice will be used in future missions (and re-iterating our previous ones) to get as clear a sound as possible without needing to rely on film rips with (possibly) overlapping music tracks or more in the background. Another user has already provided us with the audio used in all of our current missions, and we will be applying them soon. You can view our first set of changes here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-wOk09T_-c&ab_channel=StarWars:GalacticLegacy Overall progress has reached the walkway cutscene (where Vader throws his lightsaber), and we suspect the rest of the mission shouldn't take too long to complete. FATHER VS. SON EXTENDED ENDINGS Introduced with Duel of the Fates back in our initial release in December 2020, we do have extended endings planned for all possible endings for Father vs. Son. However, this has forced us to make an important decision. The original mission featured 7 possible endings, with 2 possible for Luke, 2 for Vader, and 3 for Palpatine. However, after much time contemplating, in order to reach the best quality we can, the number of possible endings will be reduced to 4 from the original 7, with an official Palpatine POV being scrapped (and instead being unlocked through one of Vader's endings). We did this as we felt many of the intended endings would feel too similar to each other, and we wanted the freedom to tell a unique story for each character. MENU OVERHAULS Unfortunately this was not a month without some degree of drama. After a lengthy discussion with the Knights of the Force 2.1 leadership, we have been asked to fully redesign a number of our menus, including (but not limited to): - Character Selection - NPC spawner - Mission Selection As of writing this article, Knights of the Force 2.1 has been re-uploaded to Moddb and Nexus Mods featuring all content developed by the Galactic Legacy team up until the split (which we didn't consent to). As Fire Phoenix has insisted on believing that our menus are direct copycats of his, we have been forced to take action. Phoenix (as of writing this) has agreed to remove all of our content from KotF 2.1 provided we remake the aforementioned menus (and probably some others) from scratch, which we always intended to do so, but hoped to postpone. Regardless, we have already begun the process of remaking the Character selection menu, with the menu featuring a specific character already nearing completion. Below is a current WIP screenshot of the new menu, we will show more as we continue to develop. As these changes are currently conditional of us completing our next update, we will not be able to continue work on anything else until the menus are remade (which is a good thing because we're currently awaiting new content for the Father vs. Son remake which will take its own time). NEW CHARACTERS We're currently also going over some new characters for the mod (as we so often like to do). Below is a small list of some of the characters we should be introducing soon: - Cato Parasitti - Cydon Prax - Dash Rendar - Darth Chratis - Resistance Trooper - Githany - Luke Skywalker (Heir to the Empire) We will of course list more as new characters are added. CONCLUSION These menu overhauls are something we've been wanting to do for a very long time and we can't wait to show off more, this along with the Father vs. Son remake, and the next update should hopefully be a very exciting one. We have a few other things on the backburner right now which I'm not comfortable to reveal at the moment, but as always you can reach us here and our Discord server and we'll be more than happy to answer your questions. Thank you for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you.

Only thing I've ever modeled is lightsabers and for that I use Gmax

This is going to be a pretty short report. RELEASE DATE Previously announced on our Discord server, our update has finally been completed and sent to the team for final testing. Assuming that no horrible bugs are discovered, our next update will release on Friday, September 2nd at 12pm EST! We will of course keep you posted if this changes. THE ROAD AHEAD We have a lot of exciting things coming to the mod for the future. After discussing with my fellow leads, we have agreed to allow for the long-awaited Operation: Knightfall remake to be its own update once it is completed. The authors Darth Voiid and Lwkill have been hard at work adding on more and more layers of polish to allow for the best experience possible. With the release of this update, the Father vs. Son remake will at last be in production (after announcing it non-stop), and I hope to have some development screenshots for you all in the next progress report. Furthermore, we will also be working on a brand new system called the Dynamic Weapon System, worked on by our amazing coder The New Order. With this system, we will be able to bring new weapons into the mod without requiring any additional weapon slots to be taken in the code. This was done in order to address weapons that feature very similar functionalities to each other. We are really looking forward to showing this to you and hope to have more information soon. Thank you for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you.

I wrote this tutorial many years ago regarding this subject. Maybe it can help you.

July has been an interesting month (to say the least). So let's get started! FATHER VS. SON Back when Galactic Legacy was initially released, we removed the option to play the Father vs. Son mission, expecting ourselves to deliver a full remake of the mission at some point in the future. It has been almost 2 years at this point with no sign of the remake whatsoever (despite us announcing it multiple times). Father vs. Son will be returning to Galactic Legacy in the next update, released exactly as it was back in Knights of the Force; on the same map, with the same questionable game design choices as before. As of typing this, Luke's and Palpatine's POVs have been fixed up, with Vader currently pending, but should be fixed very soon. This was done in order to hopefully provide some missing content intended for GL that we have so far failed to deliver on, and hopefully will hold you over once we release the actual remake at a later time. NEW CHARACTERS We've continued our slew of adding new characters, with a number of fixes to the Imperial Military to complement them. Below is the list of new characters: OLD REPUBLIC - Meetra Surik (Updated model) REBELLION - Cara Dune GALACTIC EMPIRE - Imperial Officers (New models + variations) - TIE Pilot (New models + variations) FIRST ORDER - Ren - Supreme Leader Snoke (Black Robe) INFINITIES - Inquisitor Asmodeus - Hedera - Pash Fairchild NEW LIGHTSABERS During the month of July, the amazing and talented Plasma has added and updated the lightsabers in his pack. The following sabers have been added to the mod (and applied to their respective characters as necessary): - Dan G'Vash - Sharad Hett - Darth Bane - Tajin Crosser - Jedi Temple Guard (Rebels) - Ady Sun'Zee - Halcyon Training Saber - Nari - Obi-Wan Kenobi (Exile) - Second Sister - Ninth Sister - Third Sister - Fourth Sister - Grand Inquisitor OTHER FIXES In addition to these new things and fixes, we've also taken some more time to fix up and add some other minor things. Including, but not limited to: - Fixed some bad team assignments for some characters when spawning them from the console without changing anything else - Created a new soundset for Luke Skywalker (Sequel Trilogy), using voice lines from Mark Hamill's performances from The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker. - Lowered the volume of Darth Vader's breathing so it's no longer extremely loud. - Increased the force power cost of Force Blast from 30 to 40, given the power's OP nature. - Force Destruction will now require a minimum of 70 force points to cast (still using the same rules as before) - French Translations - Adding new logic for the player to adopt the health and force of their character selected (disabled in missions) as a toggleable option. - Using a bacta tank or force heal while playing as Kyle (or someone using a Kyle soundset) will play his healing sound instead of the default Jaden sound. THE FINAL COUNTDOWN We're feeling good that we're close to the end of development for this update that I've begun the Final Countdown posts on our Discord server. I'll post the list here, but all updates made to the post will be made on our Discord server. - Return Father vs. Son as a playable mission - Remove maps from the MP listing that no longer exist - Add a toggle option to allow players to adopt the health and Force of any character they choose in sandbox mission. - Add more characters - Add more maps - Fix a bug where your character would have no textures upon loading a save Thank you for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you.

Hey, if it worked for Anakin

June was a month of quality control, and many fixes. NEW CHARACTERS Since we had a good chunk of time this month while waiting for the Operation: Knightfall remake's bugs to be ironed out, I decided to go through past character suggestions and found a few that sparked some interest. You can look forward to seeing these characters in the next update. SITH EMPIRE - Darth Talon (Galaxy of Heroes) (Additional Variant) GALACTIC REPUBLIC - Obi-Wan Kenobi (Appearances from the TV show) RESISTANCE - Finn (Resistance Hero) CRIMINALS - Burg - Q-90 - Xi'an I constantly look through model suggestions so please feel free to suggest more characters. You never know, we might just add your suggestion! MENU OVERHAULS This month saw to the completion of our menu overhauls, with the Lightsaber menu being the last one. Overall the issues I had with the menus, which consisted of a lack of freedom to browse without changing your stuff immediately, poor scrolling, and other bugs have been addressed. Here is a summary of the overhaul changes: - You will no longer have to slightly move your mouse when using the scroll arrows, thus allowing you to scroll through as fast as you'd like. - The last page you visited on any SWGL menu will be saved and will be pulled up on subsequent browsing. - Selecting a character or lightsaber will no longer change either of your current selections unless you click on the Apply button. - Selecting an NPC in the NPC menu will no longer assign it to your Quick Spawn key unless you spawn them from the menu first. - Music tracks have been updated to remove duplicate tracks, or fix incorrect or missing tracks. - Using the Angles menu will no longer leave NPCs frozen when editing the menu UNLESS you had NPC Freeze turned on before using the menu. MAP OVERHAULS In keeping with the theme of overhauls this month, most maps featured in the mod have been given some quality of life enhancements that have unfortunately plagued the mod since the Knights of the Force days back in 2018. Two of the four biggest issues with the maps have been addressed, which consist of vehicles and deathdrops. The third and fourth currently unfixed issues are waypoints and blaster npcs not firing on Movie Battles II maps, which will be an update in and of itself. To begin, all maps featuring self-spawning vehicles will no longer crash the game if the vehicle is crashed into another surface, and will instead respawn as intended. Because of this, race maps such as Boonta Eve and Coruscant Speedway can be enjoyed and crashed on to your heart's content. Additionally, maps with infinitely spawning vehicles such as Battle over Coruscant, Theed Palace, and others, will no longer spawn infinitely and crash the game after a few minutes. Secondly, all deathdrops on maps will no longer infinitely heal the player and npcs and will instead kill you or them as intended. We elected to make this change code-based; meaning that any maps with similar deathdrops that are not supported by Galactic Legacy will receive this fix as well. OTHER IMPROVEMENTS Some additional improvements we've made to the mod are relatively minor. But I'll list them anyway: - All KOTOR characters have been applied the KOTOR stances, with Darth Malak receiving his own as well. - Director Krennic has been missing for a long time, and he will be re-added to the Empire characters - Adjusted the team logic for the player NPC, making it reflect the player's current team (also fixes a weird bug where Jaden would ignite his saber during the first cutscene of t1_fatal. - Renamed multiple imperial officer characters to include their military titles, making it easier to find them in the NPC menu. - By popular demand, the base game Rodian will be returning. - New music tracks in the main menu - Using the playermodel command will adjust your health, shields, and force points to reflect your character's default starts. - The datapad model no longer has a faulty texture in several cutscenes - Missions featuring special mechanics (currently False Emperor and Operation: Knightfall) will display a pop-up explaining any game mechanics unique to those missions when selecting the mission for the first time. THE INQUISITOR LIGHTSABER The Inquisitors, first introduced in Star Wars: Rebels, began the new tradition of introducing unique and very unorthodox Lightsabers to Star Wars. Ever since Rebels saw its last Inquisitor, other Star Wars media such as Jedi: Fallen Order and the more recent Obi-Wan Kenobi series have continued to show off the Inquisitor saber's unique ability to spin. After much collaboration with one of our modelers, we have succeeded in making this a reality in Galactic Legacy. The video you'll view is of a test model, and unfortunately we have not been able to progress with this since this video was uploaded. I will attempt to pursue other avenues, but fortunately we have broken new ground and made the Inquisitor lightsaber able to spin. I can't promise at this time if this feature will be in the next update, but this has proven that such a thing is possible. And with that all said, thank you all for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you.

This issue is inconsistent unfortunately because of some graphics settings. I think you'll want dynamic glow turned off and the like. If you're spawning a hundred npcs, this will cause lag, especially if the npcs are Jedi/Sith npcs, which have the most complicated AI in the game.

A month of fixes, a month of reflection. MENU IMPROVEMENTS The past few months have seen to the overall improvement of the functionality of some of our frequently used menus in the mod. As of writing this, I am pleased to report that the Character Selection and NPC Menus are in a state that I have always envisioned them being. Several common criticisms between both menus have been addressed. The last page that you visit will be saved, negating the need for constant scrolling. Additionally, both menus have seen to a major overhaul to their functionality, encouraging giving you the freedom to browse without making changes to your game until you decide to. The act of clicking on a character in Character Selection will no longer immediately change your character unless you apply your change. Additionally, in the NPC menu, the NPC saved to your quick spawn button will not change unless you spawn the npc initially from the menu first. Currently, work is being done on the Lightsaber menu in an effort to encourage browsing. Early results have been promising, with several more fixes currently in the works. NEW LIGHTSABERS Something we haven't done in a long time is add some new Lightsabers/Melee Weapons to the mod. Though they are few, I'm still happy to add them. Chop'aa Notimo's staff Lumiya's Lightwhip Mother Talzin's Spirit Blade Mighella's Sword Tera Sinube's Lightsaber GENERAL GRIEVOUS Something really cool that was coded in very recently saw to an improvement for General Grievous's Four Arm lightsabers. First off, the lightsabers themselves have seen to a total redesign, utilizing models of Lightsaber hilts friendly to the prequel era instead of the generic Arbiter hilt. Another cool thing is Grievous's overall functionality for the colors of his lightsabers. As you all know, more iconic imagery has Grievous holding his lightsabers in a very distinctive blue/green pattern. With the release of the updated NPC Free Choice system back in the mod's launch, we unfortunately introduced a bug where Grievous's lightsabers on one side would be the same color, and vice versa. Steps have been taken to correct this, and I am pleased to announce that Grievous when spawned (or chosen by the player) will by default hold his lightsabers in his iconic pattern. BUT WAIT! There's more! In addition to allowing for the pattern to be utilized for Grievous, we even took it a step further to allow for you to choose what two colors that Grievous will be wielding, and have him holding those sabers in the same iconic pattern as we've all come to expect. NEW CHARACTERS Of course new updates should also include some new and updated characters! We have two characters from the new Kenobi Series, but their SITH EMPIRE - Darth Plagueis (New Model) - Darth Tenebrous - Exar Kun (New Model) - Freedon Nadd GALACTIC REPUBLIC - Anakin Skywalker (Redeemed, Original) - Obi-Wan Kenobi (Shadow Collective Armor) - Obi-Wan Kenobi (Exile) - Plo Koon (Jedi Power Battles) - Tera Sinube REBELLION - Iden Versio (Rebel) - Juno Eclipse (Updated model + moved) - Leia Organa (Lothal) - Luke Skywalker (Crystal Star) - Rebel Assault Commando - Rebel Infiltrator - Rianna Saren - Rebel Spec Force - Rebel Spec Force Marine GALACTIC EMPIRE - Iden Versio - Reva/Third Sister FIRST ORDER - Ben Solo (Pre-fall) BOUNTY HUNTERS - Black Krrsantan - Gerevick CRIMINALS - Bando Gora Slave - Guri - Pyke Syndicate Members - Trandoshan (KOTOR) - Zarien Kheev CIVILIANS - Doogo - Kimmi Chyler - Pax Bonkik - Laigrek - Terentatek MANDALORIANS - Din Djarin (Pre-Beskar) FORCE USERS - Nightsister OPERATION: KNIGHTFALL In other news, the remake for Operation: Knightfall is nearing completion, with a large number of quality of life and major bug fixes being implemented over the past few months. I have been informed by one of the authors that everything should be finalized by the end of next week, pending a full playthrough from our end, verifying stability and everything else. RELEASE DATE? Provided that all goes well with these fixes and the menu improvements continue to go smoothly, we should possibly see to a release of sometime in June. Please do not take this as an official announcement. Once we have a confirmed release date we will announce on our Discord server, and we will upload the file here in advance of our next release. THE FUTURE I put the Father vs. Son remake on hold in order to help the author of Operation: Knightfall complete his mission, as well as implementing quality of life fixes to the menus and maps which host vehicles. Once this update releases, I will be (for real this time) devoting my time to remaking Father vs. Son, which I have promised for over a year at this point and still never finish (again I cannot apologize enough for this). Other missions we have promised in the past will be seeing active development after this update releases and the authors take a well-deserved break. Additionally, one of our Coder's has returned to us and has completed the initial framework for what we are calling the Dynamic Weapon System. Though the codework has basically been done, we have decided to hold off on releasing this to the public for now as this will require a lot of refactoring for many current assets in the mod (namely NPC weapons and the like), but this system will allow us to add even more weapons to the mod, and allow us the freedom to easily add in other weapons which share an identical functionality to weapons already featured in the mod. We'll provide more details once we're ready to release. Oh and the Super Battle Droid will be getting some needed cosmetic upgrades :D. Thank you for following the development of Star Wars: Galactic Legacy, and may the Force be with you.
