  1. @Shadow, the new version upload was approved. If you want to try to see if it works, just download it again. Please let me know if any other errors that you may encounter with it.
  2. I'm sorry you're experiencing that. Pull down the console (~) and see if there are any relevant error messages. Paste a screenshot of it here. Thanks! Also, another question. Does it look any different after it is thrown? (the game uses 'thermal_w.glm' as the model when holding it, and 'thermal_proj.md3' for when thrown). UPDATE: I realized I forgot to include a file in the original upload that is used in the shader. More than likely, that is what caused the problem. I'm sorry. @ShadowThanks for bringing it to my attention. I fixed it (and decreased the hud-imagery size) and submitted it for upload. So now we just have to wait for it to be mod-approved.

    **************************************** SIGN SABERS v1.0 **************************************** by ksgWXfan DESCRIPTION ----------- This saber pack has 3 sabers of a general street-sign theme. Stop Sign --------- * model name: stop_sign Speed Limit Sign ---------------- * model name: speed_limit_sign Traffic Light ------------- * model name: traffic_light * has working lights with glow! - These sabers were made with Blender v2.79b CREDITS ------- - Thanks always to MrWonko's Blender tools - Textures were made in Inkscape - Shaders were made with the assistance of ShaderEd2 - Sounds come from tusken_staff and sword weapon audio from in-game. Hit sounds were customized from existing sounds via Goldwave USE --- - Use however you want; Attribution is all I ask Take out traffic-frustration on NPC's using road signs as sabers.
  5. The hand tags (*l_hand_0 tag, *r_hand_0) are found parented to the l_hand_0 and r_hand_0, respectively. Try copying them / pasting them from an existing model. The reason this is recommended is because they already have proper associated vertex groups for the correct bone associations on the skeleton. * When you do this, it will likely look huge and it will import a copy of the skeleton from the other model as well. Don't panic! simply delete the skeleton. * First parent the tags to the existing l_hand and r_hand. (Select tag ->Object Properties -> Parent -> l_hand/r_hand) * If the scale is right, the tag should essentially sit in the player's hand. If it is offset, it means you likely have to scale it. Make sure you're in Object Mode. Scale it (if I was a betting man, I'd say scale it by 0.1. This would shrink it.) Now, importantly, you must Apply the scale via CTRL+A -> Apply Scale * NOT quite done yet! Ensure the tag is selected, and goto the Modifiers tab. It should be a red box indicating the deleted skeleton. Simply choose the correct skeleton. Try to export it then. Repeat the above for any of the tags you seem to be missing (there's like 3 or 4 total in the lower half of the arm; use another model for reference)
  6. Just curious, which weapon are you looking to replace with your new model? * Do you have mrwonko's Import/Export Tools Blender plugin? https://jkhub.org/files/file/3521-blender-279-jedi-academy-plugin-suite/ * Get MD3View and ModView *** I HIGHLY recommend this! It helps you size correctly and such. The following are some tips I've ran into as a frequent mrwonko's blender tools user: EXPORTING FROM MD3View * in MD3View, when exporting, and if using with Jedi Academy, USE the "Export as GLM (Ghoul2) *without* 90-degree skewing for JA" option I learned the hard way. IMPORTING INTO BLENDER * Remember with MD3View, you're EXPORTING the MD3 as a GLM so that you can import the GLM representation of the MD3 into Blender. And once you're done building in Blender, you can then export as an MD3. * When importing that GLM representation of the MD3 into Blender, clear the skin box (it says 'default') because md3's don't need it, and it will throw an error otherwise. BUILDING * Stay true to the hierarchal setup: scene_root (an empty) -> model_root_0 (an empty) -> your_model_goes_here_0 * you can have multiple meshes as part of your model; it being best to parent them to model_root_0 * all mesh origins should be centered at the world origin (0,0,0); any rotation, scaling, translating should be done only in Edit mode; if anything like that is done outside of edit mode, you'll have to manually move the origin back to the center (includes ensuring the 3D cursor is set at the center: SHFT+S -> cursor to center; then in object mode with the mesh selected, SHFT+CTRL+ALT+C -> Origin to 3D Cursor) * If the scale is changed outside of edit mode, Apply the scale/rotation of the mesh (CTRL+A). * Tags should be empties. The naming convention should be tag_<name>. So if you have the flash or fubar tag, they should be called tag_flash and tag_fubar, respectively. * When a GLM representation is imported, the tags are imported as well, but they are meshes, named like their glm counterparts (*flash; *fubar) Think of them as placeholders. The empties should be placed at the same location as the right-angle of the mesh placeholder. (in edit mode of the placeholder, select the right-angle vertex, SHFT+S -> Cursor to Selected; then exit edit mode; add a new empty. it should be added at the new location of the 3D Cursor). Remember to rename the new empties properly. * Shaders: each mesh part of your model needs a custom property called md3shader. Then the value of that property should direct the game to the location of the texture defining the mesh (i.e. models/weapons2/thermal/xyz_texture.tga). Select the mesh, then the custom properties can be added via the Object tab in properties (right-bottom panel); it's at the very bottom. EXPORTING * More than likely, your MD3 won't have animations. I have no idea how to handle it if it does. BUT, if it doesn't, as I suspect it doesn't, on the timeline, ensure the start frame is 1 and the end frame is 1. * You then need to select each part of the new MD3 you want exported. Remember to select the tags as well. This is advantageous because you can have other meshes to assist you in building your model, but if they're not selected, they won't bother with the exported MD3. * Go to file -> export -> JA MD3 * if you had imported a GLM representation as reference, you probably hadn't changed the scale from the default of 0.1. If you chose to do that, just remember when you export the new MD3, scale it by 10.0 to set the MD3 back to the proper size, or it will appear very small in-game.

    ******************** KITCHEN SINK v1.1 (thermal detonator replacement) ******************** by ksgwxfan So you've tried to beat the game with no luck, and you might say you've thrown everything at it but the kitchen sink. Well, now you can claim that you have! This mod replaces the thermal detonator with a kitchen sink. INSTRUCTIONS: ------------- * If you had downloaded a previous version, just delete it first * Place 'zzz_thermal_kitchen_sink_v1p1.pk3' in your base folder.

    Jawa Rancor

    120 downloads

    The Jawa replaces the Rancor in this mod. For once, the jawas get an upper-hand. They are now the predator. Literally. They can't get enough of chowing down on stormtroopers or cultists. Nor can they control the cannibalistic urge towards their smaller desert kin INSTRUCTIONS: Place 'zzz_rancorjawa.pk3' in the base folder and play. Spawned via the rancor npc (npc spawn rancor) - if wanting to see delight in the jawa rancor hunting the tusken raiders, use the tuskensniper npc, as the rancor won't natively attack the regular npc tusken - Used Blender v2.79 (Mr. Wonko's Tools) - Me for shaping the Jawa model to the Rancor skeleton; renaming vertex groups to match the rancor bones - I also replaced a lot of the Rancor sounds with the Jawas to make the experience more authentic; this, i believe does change sounds of the mutant rancor though

    Let's face it. In JK3, the Jawas get an unfair shake. They appear in one level where their role is as the helpless victims, tormented by the Tusken Raiders. It is assumed all of the jawas die, as Luke says in post-mission: "It's too bad about the Jawas." So This mod gives them a more prominent role in the game, albeit an unmerciful one. Somehow you convinced the jawas that they can assist you in your mission by directing fired rockets. As you fire them from the Merr Sonn, all they can do is hopelessly cling to the fired rocket as it sails toward the target. In addition, the Merr Sonn has also been upgraded to include a Jawa Hood Ornament, as a thank-you for supporting the greater role of Jawas in the SWU. INSTRUCTIONS: place 'zzz_jawarocket.pk3' in your base folder and play. ATST's and Enemy Rocket Troopers will also be equipped with the upgraded Merr Sonn. ------- - used Blender v2.79 (Mr. Wonko's plugins) - used Goldwave to mix the jawa terrified scream loop

  13. I'm going to infer another benefit. This sounds like it would save you from building-up your npc count just for the benefit of being able to change your playermodel on the fly. And if you wanted to generate NPC files/include them in your release, it also lets you test your model before making npc files for it. AMAZING tip! EDIT: Has there been a way found to spawn an npc this way (it didn't work for me anyway; just the playermodel method worked)?

  21. Thanks for the tips. One of the problems I had was the ghoul2 properties. for my jersey objects I had copied them from existing objects, and thus they had the same name. But I got that cleared up. I have the model working now...just going to be doing some tweaks and working within the pk3.
  22. So, I've been fiddling with Blender for a few weeks now, working on a Michael Jordan (and happens to be my first) model/skin; making it for JK3. I used a GrayFox (JK2) model and Frankensteined a MaceWinduNK (JK3) head... I finally got to where I was happy with the way it looked (still not completely done with skinning). Blender exports the model as it is right now. But then the trouble (and unknown) begins. Some more info: From what I can tell, the hierarchy looks correct; The armband, legband, shorts, and jersey top are additions I added (they are their own individual objects(?); Everything was rooted to the skeleton; Everything was properly parented. So like I said, it lets me export the GLM file. I then created a 'model_default.skin' file, made an npc file, pk3'd it (inc. textures), and tested it. Upon loading the model, it shows this: Then if I try to import the model.glm file that I successfully exported, it gives me this error: and the import looks like this, with virtually everything unparented and the UV maps/textures messed up: I'm not 100% sure where something is going wrong. On other JK2 models I import, then export, I can import the exported versions just fine. Sidenote (that may be of worth to those with experience): With part of my troubleshooting, I decided to delete the additional objects I had made to see if it would export okay but it gives a LOD error: torso_0 … suggesting that I split the UV mesh somewhere (but I have no idea if it is the torso, or a child of the torso that needs more edge splits, and know of no quick way to tell where a seam is merged, and thus needs to split...especially if it is an imported object foreign to Blender). But this error is not thrown when I export it with the jersey. It's odd. So there's a lot of info. If anyone can make sense of any of it, I'd appreciate it. I'd hate to throw this away given how much time I've invested in it the past few weeks.
  23. Dude...I believe my brain was so burnt out, I overthought it. Thanks so much. Instead of mirroring, I simply overlayed the UV islands, selected them, then the "remove doubles UV" option, and I eventually got the result I wanted. Thank you!
  24. I'm fairly new to Blender (and 3D modelling for that matter), so I'm not familiar with all of the proper terminology, so bear with me... So I traced the seams that I wanted, followed by unwrapping. The result is fine...but I'd rather modify a few things on the UV map(?) The bottom two pieces are the same, just on different sides of the model. - Ultimately, I'd like to get the bottom pieces overlayed one another so that when I do the texture, I only have to do it once. How would I go about doing this? - I believe I can figure out a way to translate some UV coordinates, but a problem is when I select the seamed area, it also selects the edge of the first(top) piece. How can I isolate one of the bottom selections to play around with translation? Any help would be appreciated; thanks from a 1337 noob.
