Hey dude. Just a word of advice - what you are proposing is insanely difficult. Many modders over that past years have attempted to do what you are doing (including myself) and we've all failed. Not because it's super hard, but because the sheer amount of work is staggering. This is such a huge, labor-intensive project. It's important that you realize that this will not be easy, especially with little to no experience. I apologize if that's too harsh.

 

Instead - why don't you start with just making one duel from the OT that you like? Start the project small and start it realistically. That way, you can learn about how difficult creating several missions will be and if you decide not to do the rest, you still have one playable mission. Just some advice.

I was actually planning on trying to add the Carbon chamber duel, and see where it goes from there.

Im currently recruiting people to help create an expansion for MD2. The expansion will include levels from TOT. I have the maps, models (a few models), and thats about it. The only problem is that I dont know how to even add that to the mod. So, I need people who can work together with eachother to create levels and everything. I dont have modding experience, but apparently creating duels in this game is easy. So if you can help out in any way please do!

I am just going on a break with my solo project for about 2 months from today since we finished the debut album and need some time to rest our ears until our singer is on tour with his other band this summer. So I would be able to get some scores for the missions if you consider to use something new, instead of covers based on SW themes, something new original and that is not 100% in the SW universe, but still gets you in the atmosphere. Other than that, I could give provide you with few kitbashed/frankensteined models if you are interested, but if you like to use models made entirely from scratch it will take more time, because other people in here, that can do this will need time to produce every model you will need. Be patient and I am sure some good scripters/coders and modellers/mappers will assist you

Thank you for your help, but as of right now I think the music i could get. There are some models that I think I could just get permission and download for use. Im pretty sure that the maps are all actually in the files for KOTF (which I have).

If I could help you in this project, I would gladly do it but I am not so experienced. I'd love to see finally a mod for JKA that is based on the original trilogy (the classic one, without all the cgi/special editions that were added), because I am tired of all the prequel mods, not that I don't enjoy them, but...still OT is something that will look good.

That's relieving to know. So, what exactly do you think you could help with? The thing i'll probably need most is someone who could help with actually adding menus and missions to MD2.

There are small parts of what this version 2 of MD could be. Maybe the easiest way is to use the Movie Duels 1 and just make a huge revamp of the mod based on the OT? Not sure if that would help you

Yeah there are many characters from the OG in the actual game files. All I need to do now is try to add maps, levels, characters, menus, and probably much more. The only problem is that i don't have that much experience in modding. I could really use some help, but I highly doubt many people actually want to help with this.

    I've actually got the pk3 file for the demo of TOT mod. The file includes the basics of what I'll need to actually pull this off. I actually found some cool stuff, including some textures for the Carbon Chamber, Jabba's palace, and the second Deathstar. The big issue here is that these aren't all of the textures that I would need to complete it. Like Jabba's Palace for example. It only has like five or six textures in it.

    i also looked through some of my other mods, and realized that KOTF 2.1 has all that i need mapwise.

Well, couldn't I try and find people to map? And I guess I could try to learn ICARUS if no one helps.

ive been playing Movie duels for a while now, and i wanted more. I searched through everywhere for something similar. But, i stumbled across something. I dont know if anyone knows about it, but the developer of Movie Duels 2, Jediwill, was actually working on a version with the original trilogy. However, he stopped. I dont know why, but thats not my question. My question is, could someone who has experience in modding finish it? There is a demo of it which has the duel from A New Hope. Also, if no one wanted to finish it, would I need permission from someone to do it myself? I just want Movie Duels to be even bigger than it already is.

Thanks!

Hi, I'm Elijah. I've been playing Jedi Academy for about a year now, and have used Jkhub for about 6 or 7 months now. Ive come here whenever i wanted to download a mod, and so im ready to join all of the discussions!

    Also, i have a question. If i wanted to ask something about Movie Duels 2, where would i post it?
