Tempust85

Just an FYI I found MD3view's source code with Raven's improvements to it if you guys want it over at OpenJK here it is: https://github.com/UberGames/MD3View

Lol well it's only until this thing is bugless then I will upload it to JKHub.

XSI Mod Tool 7.5 most likely.

Looks like the faces may have been turbosmoothed (3ds Max modifier for increasing polys), then stuck into UDK with an auto generated normal map from the diffuse. The work done here is impressive, but for the love of god use Hapslash's improved models. Those Stormtroopers are horrible lol.

Haps Stormtrooper is a rebuild of the base JO Stormtrooper by Raven, he edited the model and repainted it which is why the texture sheet layouts are almost identical to Raven's. My Stormtrooper has a higher than usual triangle count and is the ROTJ armor. It's posted here because it's for Chalk's project so he has a 100% user-made Stormtrooper. About the lens: Then lens are black and only shine dark green when the light hits them.

I just found this: http://sourceforge.net/users/sfhgp This guy has: .GLM Importer (2.5, 5.1, 9, 2010, 2011).MAP Exporter (5.1, 2013).MD3 Importer - Beta (2.5, 5.1, 9, 2010).BSP Importer - Beta (9, 2010)This stuff was updated this year so there may be more to come, anyways enjoy this little find! EDIT: The GLM importer isn't in english, but it does work properly. Imports all tags, caps and model parts. I'll see if I can edit the plugin (without recompiling) to be english. MD3 Importer only imports the model, not any tags. BSP Importer appears to work fine, though every triangle is it's own element.

Is this what you're after @@Dakadaka ? Tried to capture the look of Mara Jade with what I have to work with. I take credit only for vert moving, UVW adjustments, texture tweaks and mish-mashing two models lolo.

Working links: http://jediknight3.filefront.com/file/Mara_Jade;25065 http://jediknight3.filefront.com/file/Mara_Jade_in_Heir_to_the_Empire_Jumpsuit;94140 Now to have a look at these.

Precisely. Though now thinking about it we would only be able to have the face as MD3 as the bolted MD3 mesh can only inherit the movements of the bone it's bolted to - aka we can't have cranium & cervical movement in an MD3 due to no bones. So in the end, we would have the entire model with a hole where the face goes as GLM, and the entire face all the way along the jaw as MD3 or we could replace the entire head from the jaw line up.

I may make a new mara jade model if they have her in ep7. Once we know what she looks like of course. In the meantime, I'll have a look at your request later today (on my iPhone atm) then get back to you.

MD3 worked in Quake 3 but it's very different here for JKA as there are a sh*tload more vertex animation frames that you'd need to have. I don't see how this can possibly work, it would end up bogging down the game's performance as Xycaleth pointed out. Only way I can see any cloth moving is just add new bones to the GLA and strap those bones to a cloth simulation. Either that or just find a way to get cloth sim in-game, which would require an experienced coder & an appropriate licensed physics engine to incorporate into OpenJK. However, what MD3 could be used for is bolting a head onto a model and have vertex facial animations. Only need a handfull of expressions.

Each model would only need to be recompiled IF they need to use the new bones, otherwise I can whip up a conversion table to make JKA compiled models work with your new skeleton provided all the other bones are the same. I coded this in OpenJK (unreleased) for my own skeleton. Just remember that carcass won't like any position bone data from your new bones if you compile against any other .xsi files that have none of those bones. GLAmerge is a workaround.

Apparently there was a tag issue.

I don't see why we wouldn't be able to bolt on MD3 models, but a coder would know more. So is the idea here to import all the JKA animations, run them with cloth sim on the bobafett backpack's cloth piece and then export out the backpack cloth piece as an MD3 with 20,000+ vertex animated frames?

Is this mod a fan-made story? Looks interesting.

I'm pretty sure modview mimics the code in-game concerning GLM bolting so to use animated bolted GLM's you would have to edit game code. It would also be a usefull thing for moving parts on weapons hell we could even have a model split into modular pieces if done right.

Yep.

AFAIK only static GLM models have been bolted on in-game.

So we've heard that this project was canned, but my question is will any of you make it happen?

Here's the release candidate: http://www.sendspace.com/file/fbb8j4 Fixes include: - New tags This should be exactly the same as V1 except for no LODs this time around sorry guys, but I'm not going through the trouble of making LODs for a model fix. Please report any bugs thanks.

Well I did kinda cheat by using noesis to export out the weights.

writebipposdata works perfectly.
