Probe droïd ?

Post by Leviathan »

Hello !

I'd like to know if someone has ever made *.MSH models for the missing Probe Droïd of the Imperial Side. Moreover, does it exist persons who have succeeded in reconstituting Probe Droïd's *.ODF files using hex-editing on the original "IMP.lvl" file ?

I thank you in advance !...

I could swear that I was in the process of reviewing a map that had them about a month. Think it was oasis duel. Although I could be wrong. At least this points you in the right direction to asking the right people, I hope. Wish I could be more help.

the model is in the shipped imp.lvl, I had them in a map (it's been featured on saturnlabs for months), SteveK had them in Oasis and they are in another new map too.

For the odf, you could use all_droid_R2D2.odf as a template, calling imp_droid_probe

Orignall, back in march 04, the devs gave probe droids as a weapon for the imperial officer. it said something about ". . .like the imperial officer, who can summon probe droids."

I had them in one version of Oasisi Duel but droid type units only work as 3rd team in single player. Multiplayer would crash with them so i had to change them to angry Jawas. You can call them with the lua file and put the odf's in your world folder. It will extract them from the imp.lvl shipped file. I changed their type to soldier but when they died they just scooted away from you and faded away. They didn't explode anymore and didn't look realistic. I also had R2 units coming out of the crawler as well as the probes. It would have been great to have a MP battle with angry R2D2's and probe droids to battle as well as the enemy. Also, the weapon sounds on the probes did not work and I spent exhaustive amounts of time trying. Could't get them to work.

Hope this helps.

Has anyone played to the Jedi Knight series ? There is a (nice) probe droïd model in Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy... For those interested, you can download its source files (In *.XSI file format) on Filefront, on a models pack of about 300 MB...
And my question is : How can I merge several *.XSI files into an only file ?

PS :Thanks to all for your help !... :)
