James Terrano Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 As I wrote here, I'm working on "Mod Compilation". It's one PK3 file containing my favorite mods (also in my opinion best mods that ever been released). This first package of mods I called "New Republic Era + The Force Awakens". This means that it contains for example the characters from the side stories (books, comics, games, etc.) + characters from the the latest movie "The Force Awakens". In the future I plan maybe another Mod Compilations like Clone Wars, Original Trilogy etc.I creating these mod packs mostly for myself.I didn't plan to release it on the Internet for the public (but not excluding this option). The reason why it can't be released is that I did not create this mods, so if I don't gain permission of the original authors, I can't release it. However, I will try to reach agreement with the authors of these mods, then maybe this "Mod Compilation" will appear here on JKhub.The first Mod Pack "New Republic Era + The Force Awakens" contains in my opinion a lot of the best models I've ever seen. I consider authors of these mods to be the masters and I would like to thank them for their great work. Create mods is not easy, I know that very well.Some NPCs are added (e.g. Rey, Finn, Han Solo, etc.), some other NPCs replace the original (e.g. original stormtrooper from JK3 is replaced by stromtrooper from TFA).I wanted to remake some of my favorite Multi Player maps to Single Player version (with the NPC), but with that I have still a little problems.Into Mod pack will be included also other mods such as weapons, Player Customization and more.Used mods in "New Republic Era + The Force Awakens" Mod CompilationGREEN - permission obtainedRED - permission not yet obtained OR permission deniedORANGE - author, or contact to the author not foundBLUE - not necessary to ask for permission [License: Other players may modify and share this work so long as they provide credit to the original author.]Models ListDT Stormtrooper EP7 (by DT) - replacing original Jedi Academy StromtrooperDT Luke EP7 (by DT) - replacing original Jedi Academy Luke SkywalkerFinn EP7 - 1.0 (by Brownjor10) - added NPCOld Han (EP7) v0.9 (by Lervish) - added NPCLando Calrissian (by Circa) - replacing original Jedi Academy Lando with ROTJ versionPhasma (by dark_apprentice) - added NPCLeia TFA (by dark_apprentice) - added NPCRey (by RevanKnight) - added NPCRosh (Jedi) (by MagSul) - replacing original Jedi Academy Rosh PeninCorran Horn (by Tyrael64) - added NPCDF2 Kyle (v3) (by DarthPhae) - replacing original Jedi Academy Kyle KatarnC-3PO EPVII (by Kylo Ren) - replacing original Jedi Academy C-3PODT MaraJade (by DT) - added NPCJedi Instructor (by MagSul) - replacing original Jedi Academy Jedi TrainerLadies of the EU Skin Pack (by Jeff) - Jaina Solo (added NPC), Vestar Khai (replacing Tavion)Holiday Special Boba Fett (by Barricade24) - replacing original Jedi Academy Boba FettMovie Accurate Gammorean (by Barricade24) - added NPCTwiLek Mercenary (by Kahzmat) - not yet decided (probably added NPC)Kylo Ren (by Kualan) - added NPC, does not work (crash into main menu with error message)Admiral Pellaeon (by Jeff) - not yet decided (probably added NPC)Grand Admiral Thrawn (by Darth Martyr) - not yet decided (probably added NPC)Yuuzhan Vong ()Death Trooper ()BB-8 ()Jerec () -Vehicle ListTIE Fighter EP7 (by dark_apprentice) - replacing original Jedi Academy TIE FighterMoldy Crow (by Dark Forces Mod Team, AshuraDX) - added VehicleLuke's speeder (not yet chosen) - added VehicleOther Mods ListBase Custom Complete (by MUG)Kylo Ren's Lightsaber (by Darth Martyr)Saber Color Crystal Icon (by Zicmak)DT F-11D Blaster (by DT)Star Wars: Bounty Hunter Scope (by Botdra Lar'les)Maps List (not yet added to Mod Compilation)[maps without permission or without NPC (SP version) will not be used]Tatooine RpG (by MageC) - not sure if I want this for "New Republic" Mod CompilationMos Eisley Trap (by LivingDeadJedi, Several Sided Sid, Sith-J-Cull) - problems with saving to bsp file[MBII] Starkiller base Duel (by Pipexlul)siege_destroyer (by Ravensoft)Nar Shaddaa Streets Map Pack (by super_chiken)Callisto (by Darth Stevenus)Expedition (by Acrobat)I'm looking for...Yuuzhan Vong modelZombie Stormtrooper modelDash Rendar modelJerec and Sariss ModelSome suitable models to replace original Reborn and Cultist charactersPoe Dameron modelJakku (or something like Jakku) mapIf it bothers anyone from the authors of used mods, so I'm very sorry, but I can't stop doing this now.

But if I don't gain permission from each author of each mod, I will never release the Mod Pack for public... remains only for me.And why am I doing this? Well, certainly not because I was bored. It's because I always hated the mess in the base folder. Dozens of pk3 files... a big chaos.ONE pk3, ONE kind of Star Wars theme (KOTOR or Clone Wars or The New Republic)... that's better for me... that's what i want/need in Jedi Academy.

No disrespect to Kualan, in any form. But there is a better and more "movie accurate" version of the character model, out there, found here; http://jkhub.org/files/file/2626-kylo-ren/. Either that or I'd wait a bit longer, for someone else to do a newer version. Also, Kualan's model is quite an old mod, too.

I have to use another Kylo Ren model anyway. I don't know why, but I have problems with this Kualan's model. When his Kylo Ren is hit by a lightsaber or other weapon, the game will crash.

Ruxith Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Creating a mod for yourself, making a public topic about it, gaining permission to use skins for yourself, and planning on never releasing it.. what's the point in this topic? xD JAWSFreelao likes this
dark_apprentice Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Go ahead and use my models/textures/frankensteins. I have released them all with permission to all other users to use them, as long as they provide credit to me and the other authors (if there are such for the particular model/skin/frankenstein). And also you can use my JKA Models pack if you need something from there.Creating a mod for yourself, making a public topic about it, gaining permission to use skins for yourself, and planning on never releasing it.. what's the point in this topic? xDThe person is polite and do want to have permissions to use them even for his own mod, instead of finding out in a short time ago in a planet, very far in the galaxy, that those models are used with no permissions for mods such as KOTF.
Circa Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 He means that if it's for personal use only, then asking permission isn't necessary. Otherwise you'd need to ask permission to use any mod in general. Darth Martyr likes this
James Terrano Posted February 1, 2016 Author Posted February 1, 2016 Creating a mod for yourself, making a public topic about it, gaining permission to use skins for yourself, and planning on never releasing it.. what's the point in this topic? xD Originally, I did it for myself. But I decided to release it for the public, but only if I get permission from all authors of used mods.Once all the red authors names will be green, I release this mod compilation here on JKhub.
Ruxith Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Well you put "for myself" in bold and said that you don't plan on releasing it, so it made the assumption that the OP was just to boast about your own mod that you were keeping to yourself, it just seemed like a pointless thread as personal mods don't really require permission from authors as it's never going to be released or publicized. If you were planning on showcasing it to the original authors to show them what you've done with their mods as a homage to their work then that's fine, but it just came out as a bit of shameless advertising trying to get permission for something no one's ever going to see, and I hate it when people do that xD That's fine though, you've said now that you're plan is to actually release it as a compilation pack so i'll take that back. Good luck with the mod. Darth Martyr likes this
James Terrano Posted February 6, 2016 Author Posted February 6, 2016 I already have almost everything I need. It remains only to get a few models and permissions.The biggest problem now will be editing maps to SP version.I thank everyone who allowed me to use / re-release their mods in this Mod Compilation. I'll make a few more changes as regards the contents of this Mod Compilation. I'll definitely have to remove some mods if I don't get permission for them. For some models I have to do NPCs.Another problem will be with old mods. I don't know if it will be possible to contact the authors of mods several years old. I'm still not sure what I'll do with it. Maybe I use those mods only with credit... as the local mods with a license: Other players may modify and share this work so long as they provide credit to the original author.Later, maybe I will need help with testing Mod Compilation... if everything is working properly and so on.
