Title: Mandalorian Wars Mod
Post by: Breakdown on January 25, 2009, 03:27:09 PM
I'm back...

Also, I am here to announce a new mod currently in progress: The Mandalorian Wars Mod

The mod includes:
- All new factions: old Republic and Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders
- New Weapons
- Dxun Moon Map (later on)
- Other stuff

Thanks to Caleb1117 and Gogie for the Neo-Crusader though I am a tad suspicious the texture is ported.. I will be attempting to make my own Old Republic skins, since almost all the assets for them look ported, and I try to avoid using illegaly ported stuff like that. (NOTE: If someone could find me Mandalorians/Old Republic Troopers that don't look ported, please inform)

And here are some progress shots of the first three Mandalorian units:

                                                   Mandalorian Soldier

Repeater Rifle (to replace pistol shown in pic)
Mines

                                                     Mandalorian Medic
(https://www.swbfgamers.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi261.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fii70%2FbreakdownBF%2Fscreenshot_0002.jpg&hash=eb1d61d460eb2e06c31a28997b171c285de72b86)
Healing Rifle
Blast Cannon
Thermal Nades
(Recharging Health, medium speed)


                                                          Mandalorian Engineer
                                                                                         
                                                                             Screenshots Coming Soon

                                                            Mandalorian Melee

                                                                              Screenshots Coming Soon

All the layouts are finished, however I would like to present you with screenshots before I announce the layout.

One of my main objectives for this mod/map is balance, my units are TF2 inspired, which is a very well balanced game.

The map Dxun Moon will be made after the units completion and tweaking and full testing, Dxun is a jungle moon of onderon and a primary battlefield in the Mandalorian Wars.

More announcements coming soon!

A skin of the guys that you posted screenies of for the Empire. That would be awesome!

A) Those are Mandalorians not Empire

B) You do know that a skin is basically the texture on the model?? I will only make a skin over top the existing one if I get word that the whole thing is ported.

Okay, that's acceptable terms.

I didn't reskin the whole unit, just the rocket launcher, the problem with that knee is probably something to do with the model, so I can't fix that (since it isn't my model(s))

Updates:

- Low Res geometry somewhat fixed (before they just turned invisble in low res but now they just look like theta squad did in Low Res, though thankfully it isn't as frequent)

- Still need to figure out how to make a detpack..

- Mandalorian Medic is completed

- Soldier needs a bit more tweaking and then it's done

- Demolitions still needs the detpack, and a bit of tweaking health wise and on the repeater

- Work on engineer has began

- 4 day weekend for me (thursday and Friday off) so I'll ave plenty of time to work on this over the weekend, I expect the custom sides to be finished sometime Saturday. (Doesn't mean the whole thing is finished, I still need to make the map)

Welcome back, BD. I see you wanted to come back with a bang.  :)

Even though I'm no modder, I think you might be able to make a detonator pack with the help of the recon assets since it uses a remote control to detonate.

Mac, that's what I would say.


BD if you want some great skins, play KOTOR for ideas.
Title: Re: Mandalorian Wars Mod
Post by: Breakdown on February 03, 2009, 06:21:12 PM
If I hadn't played KOTOR and KOTOR2, I probably would have never made this mod.

For some reason the Mandolorians are somewhat reminiscent of HALO elites to me...

Top Mandolorian.
Below Elite.

They don't look that close to me :P

XD Look kinda different yeah.

Hey...I forgot about this mod...hmm...
Title: Re: Mandalorian Wars Mod
Post by: Rhino on March 09, 2009, 01:08:31 PM
I think BD is modding off of KOTOR, and that's why his mandalorians look different from the mandalorians in SWBF2 or whatever that thing is. In kotor the only difference between mandalorians and the elite version is armor color. So, if you're following Kotor, BD's mod is accurate.

Unfortunatley, I am going to be cutting this mod (yeah yeah, I know, this is probably the 5th mod I never finished). Lack of interest and overall ideas have made me stray away from this, so sorry to anyone that was looking forward to this (which I doubt anyone was :P)

But wait! There's more!

I'll be taking these assets and fumbling around with them to create a Team Fortress 2 inspired mod, I would've released the assets, but then I got my current idea, so yeah.

That's too bad. I was looking forward to this, but I've been too lazy to post much these days.

I released the v2 of the .msh for it, but only a modder can do something with it, lol.  Im not going to and don't plan to make a Halo mod at this time (too many other people are making Halo stuff for SWBF2, heh).

Offtopic: Hardcore, I'll get back to you soon on our other projects, life and school have been a bit busy lately.
