The most disappointing aspect of the JA:SP experience (for me) was clicking the option to return to the academy after four missions and then not actually getting to walk around it. I had hoped that after the cutscene, I would be able to walk from the main hall down to the hangar. While doing so, I expected to be able to have a few exchanges with other padawan learners or jedi knights. Perhaps a quick training spar here or there, or the opportunity to catch up with how Rosh was getting on (similarly to the t1_inter mission where Rosh speaks to the generic jedi.) Perhaps even meet Jan Ors who happens to be nearby the Raven's Claw, or C-3PO. It would give you a bit of a break before embarking on your next mission, get to know characters so you cared when things happened later on. I didn't mind the menu style, but I feel it would have been better to have been able to access that menu from the strategy centre. I wasn't too fussed that not all of the missions drove the over-arching plot forward, especially as a maximum of three are entirely optional! I think breaks away from that to focus on actually just being a Jedi out in the galaxy are a good thing and I wouldn't want to change that myself. (Related to the post about blue-prints, I found this handy image while looking for a picture of the strategy centre! Link) Moving onto particular characters, they all have that air of missed opportunities about them but none stick out more to me than Alora. Where did she come from in the time between Outcast and Academy? There's only a two year difference between the two stories. All right, so we learn Tavion has a scepter and can imbue her followers. Did Alora go through that? If she had lived, would she have lost her power like Tavion's other followers? She's killed off as quickly as she's introduced, and this is the main antagonist's apprentice? I'm still surprised that we only have the two confrontations with her. She could have easily made an appearance at the end of other missions, like the one with the jedi tomb, for example. Rosh goes without saying, of course. At the very least, I'd have liked for him to be included a little more in your missions. You have missions alongside Kyle and Chewbacca of all people, but not alongside Rosh. I think that's a great shame. That would be my ultimate suggestion for him. It's hard to think of him as a friend when I only see him in a formal setting along with every other resident of the jedi temple.

I could have sworn someone made a model for that.

Yeah, does have a new .sab! The lightsaber model is a .glm, too.

I've made a new .skin for one of the Base lightsabers, which turns aspects of the model off. I want this lightsaber to exist independently from its source, so I've placed it in a new folder structure and set it up with single player support. In game (single player) the hilt functions perfectly. In the cutscenes however, it appears exactly the same as its original Base counterpart. In multiplayer, the hilt functions fine until you throw/drop it. When you inspect the discarded hilt, it has again reverted to its Base form, rather than my .skin variant. My question is, why does this happen and what can I do to prevent it?

Thank you for all of your hard work, @@SiLink & @@Circa. ^.^

I was just typing out that's what I thought it was, re-reading it to myself when I noticed what you'd put onto the bottom. ^.^ I do that all the time when I'm mass copy/pasting! >_

Gone, but not forgotten!

Hey, theMANE! Welcome to JKHub. I hope you enjoy the community!

I've always felt the quality of their videos was stunning. Like everyone else, I can't wait to see more come from this! I am looking at that shot of Kyle, with Luke behind him on Yavin IV. Kyle pulls off Jaden's jacket really well! I'm glad they're bothering to switch up the outfits. Kyle's usual shirt's bound to get sweaty and stinky!

The A-Wing was included in the DoA Flight Arena map as well: http://jediknight3.filefront.com/file/DoA_Flight_Arena;26516

I always enjoyed the inconsistency of hologram technology in particular. The quality seems to vary an awful lot!

You've picked an intricately detailed set of armour from the game @@starkiller101. To model that is going to take a lot of dedication and unless anyone shares the same passion for that armour (keeping in mind it's one of thousands from the game) it's not likely to make an appearance in Jedi Academy. The best answer you're likely to get is a point towards the many tutorials JKHub has so that you can learn the skills necessary to create the armour yourself. I know you're hoping someone might do it for you, but you're asking a lot in terms of time and such. Additionally, SW:TOR (sadly) is far from popular around here, hence the above. They seem to dislike it about as much as Rosh Penin.

These came from the forums of Cosmos, the community Caelum was running before he began working on this site.

I enjoyed it. SiLink's thoughts regarding JAWA were particularly interesting. Being reminded of that busy period where we were all uploading files, though... That took so long! But, it was all worth it in the end.

I haven't checked your screenshot, but reading this in passing... check you don't have duplicate brushes. Sometimes it happens when you're copy and pasting a lot. Check there aren't two brushes occupying the same space in GTK Radiant. That usually causes them to appear entirely invisible in game.

I didn't touch Jaden's voice but I'd thought about it. I am going to go through all of Rosh's dialogue and release a Kel Dor update relatively soon. The model Rosh is using in the video was a place holder, so it will be changing.

I would be immensely fond of that idea. Overwriting Jaden's at the same time would offer up a lot of opportunity! Today I was having a tinker with him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95Mrs0nU18s

Hello! The goal is to create larger and miniature vehicles (such as mini x-wings, or larger rancors.) I added... scale 200...to the rancor_vehicle.npc file. When I spawned rancor_vehicle, the rancor appeared at twice its normal size. However, when you mount the rancor, he returns to his regular size. I tested the same process on the glider bird while giving him a scale of 25 in his NPC file. This reduced him to a quarter size when spawned, but he returns to normal once you "take control." I've tried adding the above entry into the respective .veh files but this hasn't resolved the issue. Does anyone know what I should do to resolve this?

Watch a live BB8 roll around the stage, still don't understand how the heck his head moves on his turning body. o_o
