As a Christmas present I will give you all Anakins Pod Racer .... I will most likely release it tommorow as a MSH , TGA and ODF pack, since im pretty ill and not well enough to go out and get drunk ( Sad )

Just gotta finish the 'cockpit' part and texture it. I'll then look into making the pod racers cockpit actually sway on its own whilst the engines stay stationary ( not sure how to do that but im guessing its a bit like the way turrets are split into 2 parts) ...if I dont manage this I'll just use the normal speederbike ODF .

Smooth!

Cool! Like to see this in a few maps.

just been speeding around in ithe above model in a test map works well , still some odf tweaking to do .

This will work pretty well for swbf2 with the whole acceleration thing.

No weapons im guessing?

Diet Dr. Pepper it bandu, now i gotta throw away the model i was making anyways, looks realyl good

Its ok Jabba.
*Pats on back*

Well, it would be cool if we created a few more pods and then we could make pod racing levels!

Yes, this would be an awesome project... (If I'm not mistaking, it has been already suggested in the "Map/Mod Announcements/Requests/Ideas for SWBF2" section...)
Also, as Lord-Bandu said, the "acceleration" feature will make Pod's much more realistic... However, it would require a rather large map...

this is gonna have to be a late Christmas present


heres a pic of the pod at around 50% completion. The cockpit needs doing (model and texture-wise) and theres a few little bits and bobs to add to the rest of it. Plus effects and a first person cockpit view.

Amazing!

great work bandu!

i think you make a podracer map

Let me say that having been working on tuning this thing.... it's gonna be really fun.

Who's up for Boonta Eve?

Onw word...Wow. Simply amazing, cant wait to hear more about this.

Once I complete the model and textures ....and Teancum has finished the final odf tweaking .... ill release it for you all ....then maybe just maybe i'll make sebulbas and then another 1 ,then another 1 and I may even make a track for it ya never know ....IF I did it would be made for SWBF2 but I could still release a cut down version for the bf1 players .

Im not saying I am doing but its a possibility... maybe making new units of sebulba , ani etc ....ok, im getting WELL ahead of myself now lol

I smell a gt race soon!

VVVVVRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOM!

that reminds me of that commercial...

maybe its possible to extract some of the models of the pod raders from Star Wars Episode I Racer. that would make the process easier and have a much bigger variety of pods

dont lnow about the models ,as they look kinda lowrez, but the textures would come in handy.

pity i dont have the game
