[Linus]

archer01, do you want to use this skin instead of the boring 501'st troopers?

@MasterSaitek009
Nice work on the civilian skins MasterSaitek009! I'll be happy to include them in the map. One question though, what's the deal with the "Black Sun" civilian? Is that a group from somewhere in the Starwars fiction? My experience with SW is limited to the movies and some of the games (KOTOR 1/2, SWBF2, SWJK2:JO, and the Xwing vs Tie Fighter style games), so if they are from a book or something, I wouldn't know about them.

I hate to say it, but I won't be using your skin for the knight. I've already taken care of the Jedi's skin, and there are also "other" reasons why (you'll see when the map is released). Sorry about that.

@Ace_Azzameen_5
The villagers do both. Some stand around, while others moves around the small town at random. It's nothing that fancy, but it does have a nice effect to it.

Yellow is the colour the game uses when you use the SetTeamAsNeutral() function. Try it out for yourself before making any plans involving it though. I think the AI still targets neutral players and fires on them, but I haven't confirmed this. The yellow characters may end up becoming blue if this becomes a problem...

@Linus
The bartender design is perfect for the part. I'll have to see it in game (realtime) to decide if it still needs "tweaking" or not, but the design is awesome.

The trooper is interesting but a little too, um, "flashy" for this kind of mission don't you think? New trooper skins would be a nice bonus to the map, but I would like something that gives off more of a "rapid-strike-team" type feeling to it. If you have/make something like that, feel free to run it by me.

[Linus]

Many thanks to you, archer01. I will send you a Private Message containing the bartender's TarGA-texture later today. By the way, what do you mean with ''rapid-strike-team''? I have never heard that before. Sorry, but you know, I do not know all words in the english language... I'm a swede, remember ?...

@MasterSaitek009 -- No offense, but it's just Luke with a mustache. Use the blur function or copy/paste another face over Luke's old one to change up his look.

[Linus]

...Or you could add some beard And / Or change the colour on his skin, hair, eyes et cetera...

[Redneck-Alcatraz]

in the USA there are units in the armed forces called Rapid Deploment Force (air force, army, navy, etc)

generally they are the first in and last out, and usually SF's (Special Forces, Delta, etc) or the crack units (not drug units but very good units, usually as close as you can get to SF with out being an SF ex: 501st Elite unit)

[Linus]

Oh, thank you very much for removing the big question mark in my head, Redneck-Alcatraz !...

[Redneck-Alcatraz]

My pleasure

If you have any other such questions just ask...I will be watching

[adrenalinshake]

This is looking really cool!
Will it be available for multiplayer?

[Adreniline]

"rapid-strike-team"...

Want to use my night skins?

[Linus]

No, I don't think so, adrenalinshake...

The black sun is the organisation of criminals in the world of star wars. If you have played X-Wing:Alliance, you should have heard of them.

But I think a stormtrooper that infiltrates a rebel position would wear neither camo stormtrooper armor nor night-ops equipment. He'd most likely have civilian clothes, with body armor underneath it.

At some point, you should be given 100 points, so you can change to an armored stormtrooper at a CP, which has a better weapons, grenades and more health.

[MasterSaitek009]

I worked on the civilian skin a lot more and I think it looks much better.


@Archer01 here is the wiki on Black Sun http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Black_Sun I was thinking that maybe you could put the Bothan in the bar or something like that. I will PM you a YouSendIt link for the skins.

@Teancum, I switched around his nose and mouth and got rid of the hair in front of his eyes with the alpha channel. I also messed with his mustache a little more.

[Xavious]

Great civilian skin!

[Protector_Pulch]

Now he looks like a Civilian, and the base model isn't easily recognisable anymore.
Progress happens to be going well with this project.

PS:
The last thing to be fixed is the right shoulder, there happens to be glitch, or why is there a spot of darker cloth ?

[Razgriz]

DUDE! THIS LOOKS BETTER THAN SWG!!
I cant wait till this comes out!

[Dohnutt]

Now he looks like a Civilian, and the base model isn't easily recognisable anymore.

Yeah, I'll say... Who is that? Is that Luke? Tatooine Luke?

[Talibanman]

whoever he is, i like the mustache.

[Dohnutt]

whoever he is, i like the mustache.

LOL

MasterSaitek, you rock.

[MasterSaitek009]

@Dohnutt LOL Thanks! Yes that is Tat Luke's model.
