Link

Will get onto that later, thanks

The second file? You'll have to be more specific than that can you give me a direct link to the page you're talking about.

I checked the second tutorial down and saw no links going to Filefront

I've been thinking lately (Yes, it hurt to do so ) of ways to encourage more interaction from the community, if you could take a few moments to read below and vote, I'd appreciate it

Contests

I realize that contests have been done to death on other JK related websites, however they usually always provide something new. SO I'd like to propose doing a contest once every 3 months.

January - Winter Contest

April - Spring Contest

July - Summer Contest

October - Autumn Contest

These can be given fancy seasonal names, I'm sure if this is well received we'll get some good suggestions

• Reskin the Saboteur model (The user would be asked to include a specific texture somewhere as well as a shader, a guide will be written to go along with the contest)
• Create a map of a specific size (We could provide a .map file that is simply an empty box the size of a room that needs filling to your own desire... would produce a lot of different variations and spark creativity
• Model a hilt (Might be a bit advanced, but hopefully someone can create a clear and easy to follow video tutorial to go with it)

• First tutorial
• 10 Tutorials (Submitting 10 tutorials)
• First file
• 10 Files (Submitting 10 files)
• Recognized JK Contributor (Could be made a thing, where people vote once a month for someone to be given the award perhaps)
• Wiki contributor (25-50 Articles/Pages)
• Staff/Former Staff
• Donor (For those who donate 5 dollars or more perhaps)

And so on.

Tutorial Submission Days

Much like the contests, we could have a day where we encourage people to write at least one tutorial on a subject they know about JK/JK modding. This would be pre-planned and less organized than contests in terms of specific days. I would suggest doing it rarely to avoid it becoming a thing to avoid rather than a challenge.

If only 10 people wrote one tutorial, it'd be a huge contribution in a very short time... even one tutorial is great. Giving tutorials more focus is definitely a good thing I'd say.

Mod Specific Tutorials

What do you guys think about adding a new category to the tutorials area called Mod Specific? This could contain tutorials that only apply to certain modifications e.g. OpenJK, JA++, JA+, jaMME, Pugmod etc

Would love to hear everyone's thoughts on these ideas, by all means tear them apart and/or suggest alternatives

This looks like crap compared to JA+

That's like saying JA+ is crap compared to Makermod because it doesn't have the ability to build things... two different mods with different purposes

Tavion is one of the most underused female models used by skinners, yet I feel it has a lot of potential. Great work

(Out of curiosity, can that backplate she wears be surfed off?)

DID WE JUST FORM "THE HUB OF ROCK"?

...

Anyway, thanks everyone for your responses so far by far more than I hoped for. I'll post this on JAWA and a few other communities I'm part of to get the ball rolling.

I would actually contribute as long as I have time.

In what way could you contribute if we got this rolling ?

Posted this in the Staff Area a couple of weeks ago, would love to hear other opinions

So whilst speaking to Circa a couple of days ago I had the idea that perhaps we could make some sort of music album from groups/players across the community.

The idea is simple, we gather interest from people who play certain instruments, sing and/or compose by advertising on well known communities around JK, then make them come together to work on some songs which we could sell and give to charity 

Obviously the logistics of this are a bit fuzzy, I've never done anything like this and I am not musically gifted as e.g. Circa is   but I believe we could get something really cool put together if we tried hard, and hopefully raise some decent cash for a charity/charities.

Jobs that come to mind are:

• Musicians/Vocalists
• Writers/Composers
• Album art designers (Mine is just to spark imagination   I'm sure others could come up with something better, we could hold contests maybe?)
• Advertisers
• A few project managers to ensure everyone is working

I'd love to hear what others think 

Just FYI we are now discussing this and should have something set up that hopefully appeals to everyone very soon

no use man one file needs me to download on jk3 filefront or gamefront (CANT USE IT)

Which one? I'll take a look.

For example:

Is this done similarly to how GMod changes the appearance of a player model ingame?

And in regards to the menus, I meant.. for example the speed cvar could have a slider that the player can move when they hit the esc key. Would be a lot more user friendly than console commands/cvars

I'd just like to say, this is the first time I've heard of this mod and it's something I've been hoping to come along for a good 5-6 years now at least... this will make filming JKA videos a breeze @_@

I just looked at some of your images, can you modify a players appearance like you seem to be suggesting? (You've probably written that somewhere, so sorry for asking )

The blur on that video... good lord @_@

I plan on making Kyle Katarns Alternate Dimension Part 3 pretty soon and would love to use your mod. Is it currently all cvar based or will you have fancy menus in the future for some of this stuff?

Head on over to this area:

http://jkhub.org/tutorials/category/13-modelling/

You should find at least some of it useful

I know segway doesn't want to say it publicly, but he did tell me privately that he didn't "acquire" the game in the usual methods as he lost the CD....

Hopefully that assists with the support you'll receive in this thread. Your best bet is simply saving up money and purchasing the game through Steam.

Besides, you'll make Kyle upset:

Hey Warden, welcome to the hub

Thanks to everyone who has so far contributed their ideas to this thread, we'll try and get that meeting sorted today/the following week. If any one has any other points then by all means keep going

I find this slightly hypocritical.

For example, if you uploaded an image that belongs to someone else, JKHub would not know of this and wouldn't take action. We can't verify every file that is submitted to us and would only act if the file had obvious illegally ported content or if the original owner of that content contacted us and made a case that some/all of the files in the mod are his. We do check files to see if they contain anything against our rules, but there's always a chance that something will slip through, especially content that isn't the authors.

A simple program to convert audio files into a format that makes them useable in JKA would be really handy, although I have no idea who could make something like that.

We're trying to organize a little staff meeting before we go any further, this should hopefully be done by tomorrow afternoon

I realize you have made a lot of points over the past 8 pages Eez, is it possible you could sum up your proposed changes that you've been referring to in bullet point form so we can discuss it easier. If any one else wishes to do the same then by all means go for it

Merged your introduction threads

would anyone like it? they could be missing the models they need

I'm sure they would, it'd be good having a "universal NPC support pack" so that when they download a popular model/skin, it'll be automatically supported by your pack

Anything greater than 50mb should be hosted elsewhere (You could make a dropbox perhaps) and linked to your file, we'll do the rest.

Welcome to the hub might I suggest you make files that only include NPC support files? That way you are not reuploading another authors work with or without permission.

E.g. you could make a pk3 that contains a ton of npc files in the ext_data folder, it could be called the Segway NPC Pack

We'd much prefer authors to submit their work on their own so that we're not ripping from JKFiles. We've contacted hundreds of authors and told them about our website, and the majority of those people have submitted their work already. 

We might not have more files than JKFiles right now, but I'd say we have a better selection quality wise. We also have a lot of files exclusive to JKHub, especially player models feel free to check them out. If you'd like another authors files on this website then I suggest emailing them and encouraging them to do so. You could even upload their work for them BUT we have strict guidelines on doing this so it's fair for authors. You can find them here:

I watched all of the endless mountain one for some reason, I found it oddly relaxing >_> IS THAT WEIRD?

well right, he wants to implement a flagging system. I have nothing against that, it's an alright idea. I'm just wondering if he considers ported models differently than ported sounds.

Nope, that's why I kept trying to say "illegal ported content" rather than "ported models" if we receive a complaint against a file, and it has evidence backing it then it should be taken down. We can't be expected to examine every inch of a file to see if it contains illegal content, but we always try our best.
