Overall, im impressed. However, i think the "glow" of the saber should increase. In some of those screens, it looked like the other players were carrying a bat. Other than that, good progress. |

Looking like something Special. 
Shame I didnt get to test it  guess I will jut have to wait for something else tomorrow 
RoMeK That level looks cool. Is that a Deathstar level? It looks like that one from Episode 1.
RoMeK you better not be making the same level as me! I was making Bespin ages ago. the one where Han gets frozen. im doing the actual City, im doin the mining colony. you get the actual city ok? |

Yeah.. I cant get it to "glow" properly... definitely need some help with that. Ive got the 3rd person model looking a bit better, but not by much.
To BEATONATOR and Kungkrille/slitz/romek:
On the rail gun theres a bright thing that moves backward and forward along the length of the rails... is there anyway i can "steal" this for the lightsabre, or make my own one that will help bring the lightsaber out of the dark  |

I have another thought about the glow.
In weapons.tbl, there is the flag: "has_pilot_flame". That flag is making the weapon emit particles constantly. (In hte flamethrower's case -- the flame particles.)
The attributes for those particles -- I believe -- are modified in emitters.tbl, in the
$Name: "flamethrower head" group.
It would take some time to setup, but it should work. Maybe Kungkrille knows the dummy that controls the positioninig of the flame origin.
* And I forgot to mention that the particles can have a glow, and can be transparent of course. |

The dummy is called "pilot_light_1". I think it´s a vbm called flmthrow_pilot.vbm and not particles. Anyway, it could work but I guess it´s hardcoded for just the flamethrower(so move the sword from riot stick to flamethrower if I´m right). Have you tried my last suggestions? |

Yeah, but they didnt seem to make any difference. 
What about if I made a VFX version, and stuck a light in it.. would that work? |

Yes, but how do you apply the vfx on the sword handle? I haven´t figured it out. So much seems to be hardcoded. It would have been easier if you had a list of possible dummies for effects like vfx_1, muzzle_1, light_1, ammo_counter_1, corona_1 etc and all would work on all weapons. Then you could specify all dummies to what file they correspond to in a special effects table. |

seriously so much i tried in SoD but failed because of so much false possibilities.

Getting somewhere with the 3rd person model.
In the first pic the inner colour is solid, and in the second one the inner colour is semi-transparent.
Also I made a vbm so that the blue pulses... its not quite volume light, but I think its good enough. |

I like the first better...But if the saber would have a light on it it would be better....Oh and on the movies and games you CAN'T see through the saber |
