Ages of Star Wars: KotOR ERA

[ZeJudge]

Anyone know the release date for the mod tools?

[Xyvik]

Looking good so far, friends! I applaud your decision to cover the gap of the KOTOR-era, as many have discovered my mod, The Sith War, to not be in their tastes.

While TSW has some KOTOR influence, and even some KOTOR models (labeled as prototypes), The Sith War is quite a way before KOTOR.

I shall certainly make sure those of my forums who yearn for KOTOR are directed to your efforts!

[EAWFAN]

thank you we will also post on our forums a link to TSW

[Elukka]

Great idea for the mod and looking good so far. The textures for the Endar Spire and the Republic soldier don't really look finished yet, though i'm sure they'll be worked on.

Well, thats basically Han and CHewie!!

All you need is BigZ being chewie(use same model reskinned) and give him some damage increase and demolition instead of car jacking.

Then you reskin a smaller twi'lek model for Han as hot Missy Vao. Probably you should not give her EMP, maybe give her either car jacking(as per old chewie) OR the turret jack ability of R2 but with faster recharge and longer range.

[EAWFAN]

they will probally be in but we dont know what there special abilities will be yet.

[EAWFAN]

heres darth nihilus "in action" we may tweak him a little but he is looking good so far

That's the video of some anims, but I'm pretty sure that's NOT what were gonna use. Probably gonna use a lightsaber.

Massive Update

[EAWFAN]

and mandos

[miles]

im mad no one listens to me :P I have pre made Kotor models so I can send them to you. Only if you want Oh yea even though you models directly cannot be added you ground units can like Mandalorians if you took the skin you used for it and had a .DDS Utilities a hex editor adobe photoshop and the Meg extractor you could edit the skins of units. Possible have new units use the models of old units that use new skins ^_^.

I said this some where too. the emperor could be reskined to look like Nilhus and you could edit in unique units the the emperor uses the accuser use the DAT editor insert this string TEXT_UNIT_RAVAGER and in that string say The Ravager then change the String TEXT_UNIT_THE_ACCUSER to TEXT_UNIT_RAVAGER. Then change STAR_DESTROYER.ALO Model of the accuser to the Star Destroyer under construction Which I think is in Props_Story XML its named somthing like that.

It's best if we made our own content for our own mod. Also, these pre-made kotor models, are they from the actual kotor game? because using models from one game to another is completely illegal, and also they would have way too high of a polycount for an RTS.

[magna mandaloe]

Im going to be serious when I say this I don't understand how its illegal to use ship models from Kotor if lucasarts owns them :S.

[PrivateMiles]

These are Sweet!!!

[darthcarth]

mangna thier are laws about that and also they would be too high poly of models to put in eaw.

[EAWFAN]

all of the models for this mod are going to be custom we will not use other mods models or other game models its against the law and we obey it.

It doesn't matter what game it is even though the publisher/developer is the same. Using models in one game that are meant for another is completely illegal

Also, the polycounts are way too high for an RTS on the original KotOR models and the developers ARE different. Bioware and Petroglyph. Plus, its a fan made mod, and it's nice to make our own stuff for our own mod....I just hope they release mod tools.

[ZeJudge]

Huge site update!
Check it out: http://aosw.petrolution.net/
We have wallpapers, screens, trailers, game updates, new forums, the lot!

[EAWFAN]

here is an update:
we are hard at work making new maps for the 21+ new planets we are adding. we are also starting to convert some of our models into the correct format. we will most likly will release a "demo" type of beta version some time this summer. if any mappers would like to make some maps for the mod just email me at EAWBF2@aol.com

[Arc9]

now that i got 3ds max 8,i could make simetrical things!(no "big" stuff though )

EDIT:Screenshot of my first model: Republic Anti-Corvette-Turret(ACT) Gunship
:king1

The big stick thats..."sticking" out of that radar dish in the middle is the ACT.

[Arc9]

BTW how bout adding that pic to the renders list?

[darthcarth]

thats cool but we already have a hammer head ship in full detail and we need u for skining.

[Arc9]

Its not a hammerhead.Its just a custom ship.
Notice that stick? That could be the special ability-mini super laser

[darthcarth]

Ohh okay i though that u were trying to compare it and the hammer head be cause it is behind it , it is a good model but we need better models to be put in the game also u should sign up on the new site.

[Wildcat']

You need to work on the smoothing and some more detail would go in nice.

[Arc9]

^How do i smooth? How do i add textures? How do i do modeling perfection?

[darthcarth]

Well perfect practic make perfect. u just need to keep working on stuff look at tuts and stuff u will get it down.

[EAWFAN]

can we please keep this to our private forums? arc please dont post unfinished models.

[Wildcat']

Anyways with help from hihoboy (Swgbex on PFF)



I have to give him a huge amount of credit and applause.

[wolfshadow]

All right,and its NOT an unfinished model!

[hk47]

u guys gonna put hk47 there? and maybe hk50,hk51 and hk55?

[Wildcat']

HK is already modeled. We just haven't shown him yet. I finished him about a week ago but he still has a ways to go and being animated into the game. We'll most likely have an HK47/T3M4 pair

[hk47]

like c3po and r2? wont go together hk47 is a combat droid for surviveing himself t3 would be better for other stuff but its your mod

[darthcarth]

Thats just it while t3 m4 does his stuff hk 47 can keep every one off him.
