Come to think of it, do ANY of the Lucasarts games have rotating nades?

Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy do. The thermal dets rotate as they impact things.


Looking good though btw, there, Syth.

Just a suggestion... The saber throw rotates.. I know you've been doing some serious jobs on odf's Syth (with the bounty hunter jet-and wrist weaps :) ) and maybe you could mix a grenade and saber throw somehow... Remember; just a suggestion ;)

That first one just means that you make the grenade start counting down its lifetime when it hits something.

oooh. That would be nice. But great progress. After a while of using nades, I wanted to use ewok rocks instead, but these should bring light to the game!

Don't want to feel stupid here, but has anyone tried xsi animation? Making the object spin for the first 5 seconds should produce a good balance between noticing it rolling when stopped and noticing that it stopped rotating mid-air.

In XSI you can create animations for soldiers, vehicles, and all other things that you have to control, except for weapons (even remote droids and remote rockets don't need animations) so this grenade can't be animated with XSI i think... For some reason i also don't think it's possible, otherwise Pandemic would have done it for their nades.. Still, I'm looking through the saberthrow odf...

In my opinion, I don't think having grenades spin around is really worth the trouble.

yah pretty much...

what have i done wit this as of now...

Hex-edited the fire point on the mortar launcher model to the right position. Stealth must be held down now not just pressed. All ordinance has an explosion now with a shake effect, minimal damage and a weak push. Adds a very nice feel. Whats cool is if you hit the enemy in the foot they will fall over, which is accurate i guess.

I think stealth should not randomly reveal you, I'd say it would be impratical for military use if it was.

THe DLT-19 with under-barrel rocket. It has a separate fire point.

I have the back-pack addon working, here it is on the clone anti-armor

EDIT: Since i found out you can force 1st person in vehicles, what ones should have it? Just remember its forced so you cant change it back to 3rd.

Neat pics. I haven't seen this topic active for a while. A few tips, don't use a airborne trooper as a sniper, the one with the commander keller helmets. And the same with the bacara helmet heavy trooper. Anyways, keep up the good work.

I don't think i like the idea of a forced 1st person perspective on a player. Maybe you should just keep it the way it is.

Edit:
Great work with the new backpack addon. For the new barrel under the gun, could you give it a texture that makes it look similar to the rest of the gun.
