Title: REQUEST COMPLETED: Mando skin for swbf1
Post by: {Alpha}Boom27 on January 30, 2012, 06:16:13 PM
I know for sure there's plenty of material out there to do this with. What I want is an online compatible mandalorian skin for swbf 1 that replaces the republic clones with mandalorian mercs. I just want the models and skins changed, don't even have to change the weapons.

For the soldier, a Boba resembling skin without battle damage would be nice. If you can't take away battle damage, it's ok to just to leave it. I won't really care XD

For the heavy, a black armored one or red armored one (if you could get my profile pic, that'd be epic) would be nice. This is my personal class, so any awesome little bits for it would be very cool ;)

For the engineer, I believe a yellow one is in order. Yellow is just nice with engineers :3

As for the sniper, a light blue or teal would be nice. I'm not the best against snipers and want this class the be easily visible for when I'm CIS but still looking awesome for my sniper buddies when I'm Rep.

And finally for the jet. Use the Jango from swbf2 if at all possible. This will let me live out my fantasies as a bounty hunter with my buds XD

I know this is possible, so anyone gracious enough to do it for me, thanks! :3

This would be quite easy actually, I could do it even if someone did a bit of co-operation.
If someone were to send me the ported Boba Skin from SWBF2 I could change the HUE etc to create several skins.
... I would need a modder to do the rest though. if anyone's up for it?

I can do the munging.  I would need help obtaining the ports from SWBF2 though.

You guys are awesome XD I wish I could help or do it myself that way I wouldn't feel like such a mooch, but hey, gotta do what you gotta do :3
And btw, does anyone know where I could get some modding tools? The dl on filefront always messes up for me.

I know ggctuk used the skin for the Mos Eisley Hero mod, did he ever release it?

Anyway once I have the skin I can go about adding logos, removing/adding scars on Photoshop... don't know why I've never tried it before actually.

Post by: {Alpha}Boom27 on January 31, 2012, 04:04:17 PM
On logos, could you put a 27 on the right shoulder pad of the rocket? The mandalorian skull should be on the left of them all, except maybe jango/jet.

Oh, and if you can mod particle effects, Purple laser bolts and red rockets plz. Like will be awesome.

Here's how you can help--go to gametoast and see if you can obtain the ported skins.

This is what I've found that seems about right. I'm not sure if it'll work, but hey, who knows.

This one's the skin itself
http://gametoast.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=18697

This one's something for a jetpackless model. I figured it'd be useful for the non jet classes.

Well it has hasn't it...(I could've checked that :slap:)

Well I've also dug up something on gamefront, and I know the link works. The only thing is that it's for swbf2, so I'm not sure how or if it can be used.

That link doesn't work for me?
Anyway, I got that other skin pack, so no worries.

Edit Three

Done the skins, Led is going to do the munging at some point.

Cool. Thanks for doing it. Can't wait to use em :3
Title: Re: Mando skin for swbf1
Post by: Led on February 05, 2012, 09:42:03 AM
OK, here's the deal.


The way skins work is that a TGA file (the skin) is wrapped around a model in SWBF.

I don't have the Boba Fett model, so any skin that I get will wrap around the standard SWBF jet trooper model.

The Boba Fett skins from SWBF2 that Unit 33 found were for the Boba Fett model, so the wrapping is going to be way off--but it will still look like...well...something  :P  (for example, Boba Fett's helmet will be part of the chest of the SWBF trooper because the Boba helmet is so big).

Also, the jet pack is another model.  It would need to be skinned separately.  So for now it is green, like the original SWBF one.

Here are some pictures:

Now, keep in mind that I am no expert on all this stuff, but I am will to try just about anything.


Another option we could use (if you don't like this) is we could ask unit 33 to take the SWBF jet trooper model and see if he can paint new colors on it. 

If you like the screen shots above, though, let me know and I can finish the rest of the units.

:cheers:

Alright it was just a gamble to see whether I could cheat and use the pre-made skins.

I shall edit the stock Republic skins and the stock Jet-Pack to appear like Mandalorian armour.

I'll shall have it done tonight.
Title: Re: Mando skin for swbf1
Post by: Led on February 05, 2012, 10:33:37 AM
coolness.  Be sure to save the file with RLE compression off. 

Do you need the stock TGAs ?
Title: Re: Mando skin for swbf1
Post by: {Alpha}Boom27 on February 05, 2012, 11:01:20 AM
It looks pretty cool. I like it honestly, boba model or no, it's legit. Unit could probably tweak it to make it look even better.

If you want me to though, I'll search day in, day out for that model. It'd be much better that way.
Title: Re: Mando skin for swbf1
Post by: Led on February 05, 2012, 11:06:57 AM
OK, i will change up the other units.  It will take a few moments to get the others taken care of, but I can do it today.


If you do find a Boba model or some other skin packs that work with SWBF units, we can give that a shot.

Unit 33--do you know where those skins came from (Stock SWBF2)?  I can include it in the credits.

Title: Re: Mando skin for swbf1
Post by: Unit 33 on February 05, 2012, 11:28:36 AM
I've got them, I'll be finished in about 20 minutes.

What I've done is cloned parts of the Mando skin on top of the Clone Trooper skin, then done much blending and airbrushing so that it should "wrap" perfectly around the Trooper model.

Don't see why it wouldn't work; it's all the same format.... it's got all the .msh files so we don't have to wrap it around the clone model.
I shall do some work on them pronto.

EDIT

Done, here's the stuff Led;

Ooh ooh! I just rememberd! Rename them from Clone trooper/heavy/etc to Mando'a trooper/heavy/etc. That'd be much much better. If unit has to do it, while you're at it, could it be possible to put the mandalorian skull on the left shoulder pad of them all? And just for me, a 27 on the right shoulder pad of the heavy trooper.  :tu:

I did "27" in Star Wars language just to keep some kind of consistency.

Guys, on a serious note, thank you. Mandalorians are one of my random obsessions, and it really makes my day to see this awesome mod, and to see people like you actually willing to make another guy's small dream a reality. Thanks guys, honestly.

Looks fantastic! Other than some random glitches which are to be expected with SWBF2 skins they work brilliantly.

Very nice Unit 33.  Thanks Sleepkiller!


It is nice to see a community effort.

Boom27, you can repay the effort by getting more players to become active at SWBFgamers.com  ;)
