LOL, I've used that skin before too (put it ingameon a later page in same thread) but I didn't think it would fit. LOL!

Oh, and magna gaurds are done too often, put in something different.
Maybe an IG series Assassin droid or whatnot, stealth, powerful sniper rifle and the like. The Clone Commando looks like he's going to wipe out anything he sees, so make the CIS special unit counter that with not letting the commando see him before the commando is on the ground. dead.

Ok I've got one. I was reading over a Wookieepedia article about MagnaGuards and it said that they were trained in lightsaber arts (for their Electrostaffs). Why not make them hold a pair of lightsabers? I call them Elite MagnaGuards. However , I'm making this next part up but they will actually have them

, sometime in their development the MagnaGuards developed a resistance to blasters in other words, their own personal shield.

Screenies:

PS: I know the sabers look really stupid right now, don't complain. I will fix it later (right now I'm hungry).

What happened to the blade? I think you edited the tga incorrectly.

Darth_Z13 · Post by **Darth_Z13** » Mon Sep 11, 2006 7:21 pm

Well actually I didn't I just changed the blade to grey. I've done it before and I get the same thing. However, I will find out how to remove the glow and make it thinner. BTW the skin is by Droideka88. I got permission a while ago to use his skins but I just need to ask him to make sure it's still ok. Finally, should the Elite have a cape?

Not really. Its more work, it looks rather stupid during some moves, and the Magnaguard Delta Squad faced on Kashyyyk had no cape, as well.

You took the alpha channel out of the saber texture, didn't you...

I have no idea what that means.

As for the cape, I have reskinned Dooku's cape from BF1 and it doesn't look that bad. I will have to post an image when I get home. I've also made the sabers thinner, so now they look like normal grey sabers.

No, he just didn't copy the effect over to the CIS side.

Ya but in Episode III, Grievous' MagnaGuards wore cloaks as evidenced by this picture:

Sooo... I'm putting in capes.

Here are those promised pics of the MagnaGuard with cape.... oh no. Okay I will have to get those up later because Photobucket has some maintenance going on. stupid maintenance

Edit: There it's running again.

I really reccomend adding shadows....it gives it a better look.....

Darth_Z13 · Post by **Darth_Z13** » Tue Sep 12, 2006 6:12 pm

Shadows on the cloak?

Xavious · Post by **Xavious** » Tue Sep 12, 2006 6:18 pm

I think he means adding shadows to the map.

Darth_Z13 · Post by **Darth_Z13** » Tue Sep 12, 2006 6:19 pm

Ya that would be cool but I don't know how. I'll try searching.

Xavious · Post by **Xavious** » Tue Sep 12, 2006 6:25 pm

Here is the tutorial.

Ipodzanyman · Post by **Ipodzanyman** » Tue Sep 12, 2006 6:36 pm

OK I've uploaded my new beta to Filefront, @ my beta testers, you should get a PM momentarily.

Also, MajinRevan released his commando to the public so guess what's in my level now...

The DC-17!!!!

NICE! I like it. I like it very much.

Darth_Z13 · Post by **Darth_Z13** » Wed Sep 13, 2006 10:19 pm

Ya it is a really cool model isn't it? I am so glad I was able to get it. Qdin made it BTW for those people who were wondering a few pages back. I am currently trying to get the sounds working for the DC-17. I just don't understand why the sounds aren't munging. Oh well, I just have to keep trying.
