um how do i start.

ok its on the map derelict.

skinned to look like arena - havent even started
force powers. well 2 so far force pull and force push.
force pull -have the idea, but havent tested it
force push- done
lightsaber models - fp is done and highest detail done. a few problems i can fix
lightsaber skin done. but will improve.

um mc will be faster. and no guns. so lightsabers only. force powers will be done like throwing a grenade. frag is pull and plasma is throw.
this is done by swapping the frag with a mere bullet which cant be seen. dropping the damage and adding force. so when you hit the throw nade button. he'll throw a bunch of bullets which cant be seen and when they hit you, you get pushed. so you never throw a nade.

hoping to add double jump. so it'll be cooler. and like i said he'll be faster so gameplay will be faster.

i need help with one thing. so if someone can help me. pm me.
you must be good at modeling, well not really just know about modding alot.

i think i mentioned everything.

i would post screenshots but. theres one problem that i want to fix first.

oh and i need someone who can input sounds. ive never fucked with that so i have no idea.

ps dont flame me. just trying to do some new shit.

I understand how your going to do the push but how are you going to do to the pull. Can u use Hmt to give objects a "sucking" effect?

allright XwitX im going to answer. what ya asked.

after testing. i couldnt get the force pull to work. lol. but thats ok.

how i was gonna do it was by applying a negative. force. didnt work. but heres the thing. i was just playing around. cuz its fun. and i had force push. wih the frags. and regular plasmas. so i think its more fun with regular plasma cuz in the game i had. mysaber also had a force. on impact. so i threw a plasma on dude and ran up and wacked him b4 it blew up and he flew back no to much. and then blew up. and i lived. so that was pretty sweet.

but i can do 2 things. keep the plasmas or make it a force power where you stun your opponent.

let me know.

oh and i still dont have a screen which i was goin to post to day. but i have and involuntary. vertice that sticks out even though its not really therre and it pulls part of the skin out. so right now. implaying with the skin finding out exactly where and making that part transparent so you cant really see. and please dont tell me to use the cryo glass. i just need it to be transparent for a little part. and yes i know how to do it. oh and i still need help. with 2 things so pm me. its sorta important.

i like the blaster rifle. idea. and the banshee its cool. but make him flying um ill ahve to do some testing. cuz force push for a weapon. is ok but. let me see about it. but i still need help with a few things. not with modeling or skinning but with. modding. some stuff. that i know is possible but i havent done. so if you know all PM me. um as for the lightsaber skin. im doing a lot of testing right now to find out where that one vertice is that sticks out. i manage to make part of it transparent but since its from different areas i have to continue to look. basically what i do is paint a part red and see if that vertice turn red ingame. if it does thats what i make transparent. i got one half of it. lol. after i get the saber done. and skin the arena ill release a beta.

then i know this is easy. the saber i have now is green. so im going to duplicate the weapon and change the skin and make another one red or something. so that'll be cool. im sorry i havent posted pics. i just dont want to give a bad impression of the mod.

something. that i really want to do is remodel the chief. which wont be easy. i was thinking of a wannabe Malak. but no plans for that yet. but fuck that. must work on first things first. i still need a sound guy. and help with modding.

Glad I could help. I'll keep looking for a couple of answers to Qs but I don't think some of it is possible.

I would wait to start this untill HMT 3.5 comes out, cus this mod will require a lot of modeling...
