andu, you know you can just add effect line then pick a small electric one.

Btw, if you can't get it working, I could try some things. I have been making new stuff all morning, with great success.

I could probably take a shot at making the lightning effect. I might be able to apply the Force Lightning's effects onto a lightsaber blade, maybe... hmm, it's worth a shot, I suppose. If I have the time, I'll look into it.

Kinda what I'm trying Schizo. I am thinking I can specify in the odf an effect like explosions and such use but calling the smallest emp effect I can and applying it to the blade, my concerns are that I may not be able to confine it to the blade. Worst comes to worst I will have to make a new effect.

Nice on the maggy staff.

And I hope we can all get a sneak preview shortly before the release.

I love Rattatak and it's famed arena! It's cool. I love how the Sith used it to test assasins to hire them for the war.

I dont think the lightsaber blade is an effect ..... more of transparant model.

Has anyone tried attaching the effect that is on soldiers after being hit with force lighting (the Ball)? You could scale the ball down and change the color to purple?

Just got something working for the staff...I'm keeping it a secret though(Check PM's Bandu)

the Rattatak Map is going to leave everyone speechless.....

(I know becuase I just played a little bit of it lol)

RevanSithLord · Post by **RevanSithLord** » Fri Mar 10, 2006 6:17 pm

Man I so wanna test it before release!

( I am after all a beta tester. )

Mikey_bizzle441 · Post by **Mikey_bizzle441** » Fri Mar 10, 2006 6:17 pm

maybe you could make the lightning a moving texture? i know they have moving textures in UT2004 so it might be possible in Swbf2

Lord-Bandu · Post by **Lord-Bandu** » Fri Mar 10, 2006 6:35 pm

If no-one can get an effect working I guess i could make a scrolling texture but with the lack of GLOW documentation itll look pretty dull.

I could put a light on the ends ..... i guess i'd just have to have a mess around.

Ideally I need an electrical effect so anyone/ EVERYONE get making them lol

Revan , I havent discussed beta testing with Vyse as yet , but if we do have a small online beta test you will be invited.

( we are not taking beta test applications at this point

)

you could ask Mars Marshall for the skin with the cape and a staff with eletrical effect that he has with his magna guards skin http://jediknight2.filefront.com/file/M ... rdVM;55831

Lord-Bandu · Post by **Lord-Bandu** » Fri Mar 10, 2006 7:10 pm

no offence to Mars but i'll pass.

he's mixed up the different types of magnastaff and it looks too big.

the cape has to be attatched to the model and im not gonna go thro converting his model just for a cape lol

I liked the screen you posted last, bandu, what's wrong with it?

Lord-Bandu · Post by **Lord-Bandu** » Fri Mar 10, 2006 7:29 pm

the effect just isnt good enough

Vyse · Post by **Vyse** » Sat Mar 11, 2006 2:04 am
