Kualan

Where is that from

Source is Clone Wars Adventures - a now-unavailable MMO.

I´ve found bug in hair texture in kualan quigon, it shows in modview and ingame too

 

Hm, I didn't actually edit the hair texture itself so it's probably inherited. However I can take a look at it in further detail later tonight or tomorrow - just heading out for the evening now.

Hey @@Seven , I was having a look at your Qui-Gon model earlier and saw some opportunities to improve it:

I've made the head slightly larger and added two extra hair surfaces so that the default, robed and hooded versions now all have their own hairs reshaped to those specific skins. So now the hair doesn't clip through the hood or is half-hidden by the robes.

I've also retextured his robes to be a little more movie-accurate as he was originally sporting the Obi-Wan colours. Lastly, I did a bit of tinkering with his face texture to make it look a little less flat.

This is mainly for personal use and I don't wish to upload it to the Hub under my username as the changes I've made are pretty minimal. However if you want to use anything in an update to your file you're more than welcome to:

Very creative use of shaders in a way I wouldn't have thought possible - excellent work, Ashura.

I've always wondered why there's no model of Dengar and his weapon.

 

It could be frankensteined by Kualan's Bric model. If anyone could put this one together, I'd be very happy

Funny you mention that, here's something I started work on earlier today...

In the middle of moving house, but found some downtime today to work on some new WIPs.

These are Clone Guerillas, based on an outfit worn by Captain Rex in the Onderon arc of the Clone Wars TV show - made for an upcoming issue of my Tales From The Clone Wars webcomic:

you can do that in 3ds max via skinwrapping (Tutorial on using it for JKA by @@Psyk0Sith ), I use skinwrapping all the time on my models - I have a weighted version of my basemesh or a merged copy of the model I'M working on that I use as a skin wrapping target for the final (split) gamemesh.

This really helps me to get nice deformation around the dismemberable parts of my models.

 

I'd expect blender to be able to do something similiar

 

EDIT:

 

this seems to be able to do just what you are looking for:

Thanks Ashura! That looks very promising.

So @@Jeff , have you been weighing these recent models yourself manually from head to foot - or have you disovered a way to 'transfer' the weighting from one model to another and then touch up any imperfections?

I ask because I discovered during my Skyrim modding that there is a way to do exactly that with that game's .nif model format in Blender and it saves SO. MUCH. TIME. It would be neat if there was a similar method for the .glm format.

Same question goes to @@Seven who has been coming up with some neat stuff too.

What if someone took a skin from KOTF then edited it and wants to upload here. Is that legal?

None of the skins in KOTF were made by the modder who put KOTF together - it is a mod made up from work stolen by other modders. You would need the permission of the original creator not that Tim guy. Which skin did you plan to edit?

Both of course!

In all honesty, for a proper 'dirty armor' feel the best way is to create a clean version first anyway and then scratch-dirt-blood it up to heck in Photoshop. So if you wanted to create battle-worn version you would pretty much have to create a clean one anyway.

He's in there. He's not a particularly well put-together model though - all of the ones in that pack I consider to be WIP.

Yes I have and it's on my list.

Ace, I recently caught up on the last few chapters of the KOTFE expansion in TOR and am really digging the character.

Nice. Have you considered doing SCORPIO, Jeff?

Sometimes this is as simple as making sure you export when in Object Mode and not Edit Mode.

For anything else, we'll need more info as @@mrwonko said. A screenshot of any error messages that display when you attempt to export would be perfect.

 

That's the next thing on my list after Rey, I'm actually redoing Quinlan's model entirely - as unfortunately I lost all the original sculpts and source files for him and I feel like I could redo the model quicker than I could trying to optimize him.And Aayla will most likely be getting a new head mesh, to be closer to Amy Allen, along with some optimizations to her mesh.

Sounds sweet man - but could I make a request? When you release the new Quinlan and Aayla would you consider doing so as a separate release? I think the current versions are very good and would hate to lose the chance to redownload them as they are now in the future.

I have a .glm of the new model set up with additional accessories that I was going to use for my own reskins if you'd like to use it. Would allow you to branch out to other clones like Rex, Wolffe, etc.

You can click 'View Alpha Blend' to preview some of the transparent textures, but they won't appear exactly as they do in-game as Modview can not render shader files.

Now... can we have Mas Amedda?

Dude, I've already answered this so many times. Mas Amedda and several other models I didn't include in the dropbox pack contain content from SWTOR that I don't necessarily feel confident in making public due to it being a live, active property (unlike the Force Unleashed or Galaxies). They were made primarily for use in my webcomic.

Only reason I even posted a screenshot of the Mas Amedda model was because I was asked to. If my attitude about those models change, I will post in this thread.

WIP, but..

...we may have to coordinate reskins, lulz. Fox was going to be the first one I did after the two clones from my comic.

it does not need to exist - it's only a shader alias

models/players/cloneii/visor
{
	q3map_nolightmap
	cull	disable
    {
        map textures/colors/black
        blendFunc GL_ONE GL_ZERO
        rgbGen lightingDiffuse
    }
    {
        map textures/common/environ11
        blendFunc GL_SRC_ALPHA GL_ONE
        alphaGen lightingSpecular
        tcGen environment
    }
}

this is what the game loads whenever visor.tga is referenced

 

you can get modview to load this (without the env obviously) by giving adding my clone shaders and the common/textures/black.jpg to your modview basefolder

Aha, makes sense.

I'm genuinely amazed to see such a high-quality model produced in a) Relatively little time and b) Looking as good as it does in a game as old as JKA. 

Captain Phasma has been submitted for approval. Credit goes to @@DT85 for the original base model and @@Barricade24 for his help with textures and shaders.

Looking great Ashura, but I think the visor.tga appears to be missing?

Hot diggity, the reskins have started already. I'll be looking forward to jumping on that bandwagon when the model's released.

The Republic At War mod for Empire At War is a good source for sound files - I've used it in the past for my Plo Koon release, and I'm sure they have a plethora of clone audio clips you could use.

That Kylo Ren helmet in the Luke picture looks like a big improvement.
