A bit off topic:
I feel like this could be really interesting... having a new admin mod, that could support a sword mod or something like that... but we might hurt a rodian's feeling... that so like the fact that this game is aout Star Wars and not Final Fantasy - Beast -------------------- "Separately, woman and alcohol can be quite fun... but when you mix them, they can make you a dumbass"

We can't please everyone ..
However, there are plenty of other benefits of having custom hilts and such that are Starwarsian and aren't built into the game as shipped ... much like the skins we create. I'm going to start digging again. It's been awhile since I've looked for what's out there. JB -------------------- Yellow Is Golden

i liked omnimods hilts, but i heard about the backdoor which is a bad thing, so thats a no go. but the hilts were cool. u could have two sabers, a twin saber, or even two twin sabers. they had new specials as well (AM TAUNTS modified) and the grappling hook and jetpack were fun. also, the hilts had one that let one saber be normal, and the second be backwards. hard to explain. just say the blade faced backwards basically, and looked really cool. if there is a mod out there to do this without jepoardizing the servers security, that would be cool. but if not, im cool with the one we run now. (except maybe sometimes Terminator would spice things up, but if not i just go to the dragon server to use guns;) )

We could always just use a mod that allowed these things (similar to Xero's request, but I'm not sure I liked that mod.. ). Dueler's Mod or JediMod 1.2 would be great, for they are simple mods with basically grapple, custom saber blades, and hilt "skins" as additions. (More to describe JediMod.. didn't Dueler's have Jetpacks?) Anywho.. something like that would work, if we were so inclined as to adding things without any real troubles or hassles rising.

Or you could "split" the mod topic off to a post of its own. That way nothing in the way of mods gets lost. Won't you lose all those nice admin commands using another mod, tho? Is it worth it to use swords and such that people can easily just download?
But then, a change of pace would be nice. :\ |

Heh. "Master of Wit".
I just noticed a brand new JA+ Mod located here that you might want to look into for the JA server as well. It says that the DFAs have been changed along with a slew of other things - and I do mean a slew. Worth a look see, anyway. EDIT === NVM. It's a complete rip-off of JAR. |

Little Aoshi update.... Beast has already come through with yet another new version of the model. (Thank you! Thank you! Perfect!)
I think I've made all the necessary changes to the coat - a belt, a backflap and a little work on the top of the shoulders. I also gave him his trademark frown and a bit of a new hairdo. Hair's still a mess, tho. Okay, I'm workin' on it! I know I have yet to extend his pants over his shoes. But, if you have any other suggestions for him, post it now... PLEASE! Attached thumbnail(s) |

you should really do his trenchcoat 'collar' thinige... in orange and such...
It would give him something more... than just a regular trenchcoat... which is cool anyway though - Beast -------------------- "Separately, woman and alcohol can be quite fun... but when you mix them, they can make you a dumbass"

Thank you, Beastie. Great idea. I'm trying to pull that off on the little lapels that stick out in front there. It didn't work too well on the coat itself - too flat. First I have to find out where the rest of that is coming from. Then, I'll take it more toward orange as you suggested. You're right. That would give it a lot more contrast and interest, methinks.
I've been looking at that coat trying to figure out what else I'm missing. It occurs to me now.... There are no buttons! No button holes! No way for the poor guy to zip up when it's cold out. And judging by his hair, he just came in out of a pouring rain. Well, that's what I'm gonna tell everybody, anyway. |

That collar.... Kinda like this? Also, I've been thinking about the team skin.
I really want to keep the coat the same color. He won't look like Aoshi otherwise. Make the outfit red and blue. (His pants will show from the back.) If so, should I also maybe put a team icon on one or the other shoulder of the backflap on that duster, you think? Hmmm. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Sorry Infi... I let this one slip... for some unbknown reason it did not show up as 'unread'...
But for the 'team support'... I understand that you want to keep this coat the same color... what you could do, is: - Get just a 'simmer' of a red/blue taint in his dark hair (keep the hair really dark, but give him some red/blue 'highlights' ) - Change the colore of the outfit is good to (his sweater beneat the coat) - Put a logo, or team 'symsols' on his back or shoulders - Change the color of only the collar (from orange to red/blue) I think that one or many of these idea put together would do the trick nicely for this skin... As always, let me know what you decided to do and post some screenies - Beast -------------------- "Separately, woman and alcohol can be quite fun... but when you mix them, they can make you a dumbass"

All great ideas. Don't think I'll mess with the hair, tho. It's messy enough. I'll give 'em a go, but he looks really lousy in game -- at least to me. I think I'll ask for some beta testers (on their own machines) to give me some insight. 'Cause as is... oi!
It's now for JA, also. The Requestor decided to uninstall JO. We shall see..... |

He's not too bad, but I can do no more. Unfortunately, my best isn't good enough to make this one what it should be. That long cardboard hair layer that came with the Dante model has beaten me. The coat? Meh. The suit? Pff! Had it with that.
He won't be released unless and until he looks a whole lot better (and as much like Aoshi as possible). And that, my friends, will take far better talent. (That's not meant to be self-effacing. It's just fact. A good Aoshi cannot be a one-person project.) So, if you - or someone you know (who's a really good graphic artist) - cares to take a crack at it, I'll put it out there somewhere for a few other hands to work on a bit. I really love this character now and I'm not even into Anime! He must be perfect, I say! Or, no dice! |
