What model should we use?

I don't think doing so would be good: people need recognisable elements in the maps, like this engineer, or like the stormtroooper armor.

And yes, the Security should have black uniforms. No offense, but your reskin isn't differnt from the ordinary naboo security forces default skin.

Can you change the color of the Engineer's cap ? Brown doesn't fit the gray of the rest skin, black or dark blue would.

A little question: Will you also include the CW era in your map ? It isn't necessary that you create new sides, but the Kuat yard drives were incredibly important to the Galatic republic, so that it's rather likely the CIS has attempted to raid them (maybe with a small group of elite units)

Looking fine and forward for it.

how's this for the security-guy alpha?

how's this for the security-guy

to me it looks good

Kuat Drive Yards Security - Naboo Trooper, reskined, Kuat Drive Yards Symbol, lots of grenades.
Stormtrooper - Normal, but maybe with a symbol.
Heavy Trooper - Normal, but maybe with a symbol.
Kuat Systems Engineer - What model?, Kuat Systems Engineering Symbol.
Imperial Officer - Normal Ofiicer.
Dark Trooper - (Should the dark trooper be replaced with someone else?)

I think that the Dark tooper should be replaced with Rapid Responce Security Droid (a battle droid or SBD with a jet pack, 4 grenades, pistol, bulldog RLR, and stealth (secondary))

EDIT: isn't the security emblem similar to Zelda's emblem

I like Taliban's skin. Depends how it looks in game. I like my shadow trooper, but what can I do to the magnaguard, any suggestions?

Give it black paint marks. There were black Magnaguards....although I'm not entirely sure if they were used as commanders or warriors. You decide mate.

the skins arent bad but theyd be better if you didnt save them as .jpg cause they probably lost half thier quality when saving them in that format, targa can give you a far sharper image so you should keep them that way.

well of course i have the targa on my comp, i only uploaded it to photobucket as a jpg...

Cool skin, but i think the camo on the arms look a bit to much like the military, not civilian security, and i think you need to clean it up a bit, like on the bottom there are some blue bits.

but they're NOT civilian security, kuat factories were military targets at the time of war...

So the orbital defense forces recruited everyone who had experience in blaster use.

Talibanman · Post by **Talibanman** » Sun Oct 22, 2006 6:25 am

okay, i haven't been such a keen star wars books (or anything) reader, so i of course don't know a lot...
but remember that if the skin's not enough, alpha can always choose and not use it... it's his choice.

Alpha · Post by **Alpha** » Sun Oct 22, 2006 9:15 am

I personally like Talibanman's skin for the security officer. And accuracy isn't my goal with this map anyway, it's game play.

Off-topic: Dragon' did you get my PM?

@ Talibanman:
it didn't rely on any star wars stories, I searched for a logical reason, and I found it. That's ret-conning: Telling the in-universe reason later.

I just got some ideas.
1. Because this is a city you probably wouldn't except scouts here, you would expect snipers but not the scout model for them.
2. Because this is a big well guarded city you would probably except the rebels to attack with their special forces, so you could give the scout model to the rebels, because some of their special forces had the same armor.
3. You could probably also give the rebels a Rebel Commando, with the clone sniper model, there is a really good skin near the beginning of the first Glamour skins topic.
