Delta_135

Well, the only one I plan to use is the realistic, without blade version. When Delta puts up the file anyone else is welcome to do what they please with it

 

you know i might put op both versions

 

if anybody can help me with this uv map/texture problem

for some reason the suitcase is black on one side and fine on the other side and some sides are just plain screwed up.

but in blender it looks fine

 

 

 

 

i've tried to make the uv map again but it didn't work

any suggestions?

here is a little preview:

 

 

 

 

there is still a few problem such as the size

and i need to fix the uv map

 

i'll fix them when i get time

Is it a saber? Or just a model?

 

right now it's just a model

but i'll make it a saber tomorrow

here is all i got done today

i know the texture look stupid but i'm no texture artist so i just grabbed a suitcase texture from cg textures

 

 

 

 

so Andrew what do you think?

how does this look?

 

 

 

 

made in 10 mins 

gonna finish it tomorrow if i have time for it

I'll get started on that after uni unless anybody has objections to Hoth...

 

none here i've always had thing for snow levels

This'll probably help.

 

http://jkhub.org/topic/1654-shader-on-a-reskinned-hilt/

 

got it to work

 

here's what i did:

changed all \ to / in the custom propertie md3shader in blender and all other shaders and .skin files

exported the model as "saber_w"

saved all .tga images as .jpg with no progressive or optimized settings

 

and that did it

 

thanks

(should i mark this post as the answer?)

after following

l i have finally managed to make a custom lightsaber hilt and get in game

but whenever i try to apply a shader to it the shader doesn't show up no matter what i do

i did try to get a few custom sabers from this site to see if their shader worked and it did, i even tried to copy their code just changing the paths to mach my saber

but it still won't work

 

so a little help would be appreciated

 

here is the code:

 

 

models/weapons2/LegoSaber/LegoSaber
{
q3map_nolightmap
    {
        map models/weapons2/LegoSaber/LegoSaber
        blendFunc GL_ONE GL_ZERO
        rgbGen lightingDiffuse
    }
    {
        map models/weapons2/LegoSaber/LegoSaber-spec
        blendFunc GL_SRC_ALPHA GL_ONE
        detail
        alphaGen lightingSpecular
    }
    {
        map models/weapons2/LegoSaber/LegoSaber_env
        blendFunc GL_DST_COLOR GL_SRC_COLOR
        detail
        tcGen environment
    }
}
 

 

some of the hilts i downloaded had a .skin file so i made one too

 

saber_w,models/weapons2/LegoSaber/LegoSaber
 

 

 

and yes i did pack as a pk3 file

and yes it's lego saber hilt model (only thing i could think of)

i don't think they ever got made unfortunately

i've been looking too

Get me a mapper in here to help me out

 

i'd love to have some more control over VIS too

no matter how many tutorials i read on vis portals it just never work out the way i want it too

so i usually just end putting down a bunch of doors with arena portals in them

although that never seems to work as intended nether...

 

and since i'm a coding newbie i have no idea how one would even code something like that.

 

EDIT: can't seem to get the quote thing to work probably...

Well since we now apparently have a coding forum category

could one of admins possibly move this topic to said category were it would probably fit better?

Thanks in advance.

I'm kinda surprised no one else have made a topic like this yet (or maybe i just missed it )

 

Anyway after reading half a c++ tutorial and making my generic Hello_world.exe i decided to take a look at the openjk project in visual studio express.

After leaning my way around i started to search for the dismemberment cvars (or whatever they're called) because if there is one thing i've ever felt jedi academy lacked it's the jedi outcast dismemberment.

 

Basically in JKO you could completely cut you're enemy's and there corpse apart using the "g_saberrealisticcombat" command.

But jedi academy does not have that as it was replaced by the "g_sabermorerealistic" command which is write protected so you can't change it as far as i know.

so after looking around for while i manged to remove the write protection and make it cheat protected so you can change it with "helpusobi 1"

i also set all other dismemberment related commends to about 100 as default, cuz i'm too lazy to change them in game.

 

the result:

 

 

 

Then i remembered a thing that has annoyed some mappers in the past

the fact that you can't change gravity in game.

 

Sure you can set the gravity in the maps worldspawn in gtkradiant but you can't change again it unless you change the value in the maps worldspawn and recompile it.

so you can't etc. have space ship with gravity inside the ship and no gravity outside because the  g_gravity command is also write protected and not even the "target_change_gravity" entity in gtkradiant or scripting can change that (there is A LOT of old threads on gamefront where people have tried to find a way to do it)

 

so i made that command cheat protected instead of write protected and it works perfect.

now you can have one room with; normal gravity, one with 0 gravity and one with super gravity.

 

 

 

 

so yeah i'm having a lot of fun with this

(also i'm not sure what other category to put this in) 

(4)     New Levels may not include any LucasArts sound effects or music files or

portions thereof.

 

i'm a bit confused about this one

does it say we an't allowed to use sounds and music from other star wars games and movies a new level

or does it say we an't allowed to use sounds and music from the game in new levels?

i'm pretty new to blender so not sure how much i can contribute to the project

but i'd like to join in anyway if that's possible 

at the vary least i can probably make a small plant or something

and who knows i might learn a thing or two along the way

this is the best thing ever

my life is 83.56% complete 

 

i can't wait to see what you guys come up with

(i hope for some sp coding tutorials)

i... this...

O:

AWESOME!

well i have done all i feel i could so i sent it off the next contestant

good luck to the rest of you

 

Edit: it would be nice to hear from the next contestant...

well this is what it looks like so far:

 

 

 

 

i'll see if there is anything else i can do before i sent it to the next contestant tomorrow

well i had a busy day today so i only got a bit done on the hallway to the goldroom

 

 

 

I'm liking the inside of the lift! That switch definitely isn't something I'd thought of doing, though. Very different than what I normally see. 

 

well i tried to be unique instead of just making a square with a texture on it

here is what i got done today:

 

added a elevator door and the elevator to the building 

 

 

 

i also started on the way to the gold room

 

 

 

the elevator is not moving yet and i think it would be best if it's controlled by a script instead of just being a up and down door/platform

but i'm no good with scripts...

i haven't had as much time to work on this as i'd like but here is what i've made so far

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

also i think a skybox like this would fit the map well

and possibly solve the "what is gonna be outside the floating gold room" problem 

 

 

 

EDIT: just found this on cgtextures http://www.cgtextures.com/texview.php?id=78110&PHPSESSID=sk2pcp1dm3jac9ia6t7gu6uke2

might be usefull

okay my plan so far is to use the big building under the gold room, put at one end of the street and use it to connect to the gold room via a elevator inside

just wondering if the previous mappers have any thing against it.

 

so far:

 

 

I'm afraid I've decided the map is just too fucked up and unplanned at this point to continue it. I'm have a large test coming up on Monday and won't have much time to work on it anyway. I will email it to the next person.

 

I would seriously suggest that you guys restart with a better idea of what you want to accomplish. The stark difference between this and the Map-Craft PMA is that the Map-Craft one was collaboratively discussed with like 20 posts a day on the forums, and the map was only built onto continuously. This one currently has two completely disconnected spaces that imply additional mapping of 6-8x the amount already there due to the fact that:

1) the gold room area has windows and is clearly high up, meaning you now have to make an area for it to look down onto and

2) the street is going to need finishing, it goes no where at the moment. A note to anyone designing streets in the future: always start at an end, not the middle. Think about how you want to obstruct or in any way end the street before you even start.

 

well i just got the map but i won't be able to work on it today

so if we need to start over now might be a good time, but i'll leave that up to the other people in the collab 

if i don't hear anything i'll just start working on it 

(i guess i could try to fix the some of the scale(?))

 

EDIT: just took a look at the map and the only thing i can see that out of scale are the stairs from the subway up to the street

so they could just be remade 

that looks interesting 

i really like the combination of the brick buildings with the technological lights

looks unique
