CREDITS: Thanks to everyone who has written tutorials on creating mods for JA, i've read too many to list here! In the case of this project, most thanks go to Virtue for the "Lightsaber crafting 101" tutorial at http://www.thejediacademy.net/~virtue/tutorials/hilts/saber_tutorial.html
INSTALLATION: copy the included file "dragonclaw_hilts.pk3" into your jedi academy base folder, e.g. "C:/Program Files/Lucasarts/Jedi Academy/gamedata/base"
DESCRIPTION: The first mod i have finished and released, i have heaps of incomplete projects on my hard disk, so i decided to finish one for a change :P. Here we have two versions of a lightsaber hilt i designed, a dark one called Wyrmclaw and a light one called Ormrclaw. The model is based on a dragon, i wanted something that could really stand out among other saber hilts and i think the wings do a great job of it, see for yourself :). This was modelled and UVW mapped with gmax and textured with Photoshop.
BUGS: None known, please email me if you find any!
COMMENTS: This is a very basic job, only works in MP and has no shaders (I just couldn't seem to understand any of the few tutorials and help files i could find about shaders) but i think it came out fairly well anyway. However, if you know of any good tutorials about shaders or SP sabers, please email a link to me so i might make an improved version 2!!
Even if you don't know any i'd appreciate feedback as this is my first release, but please don't use my email for this! Please leave comments online on the download page where you found the file.
THE MODELS AND TEXTURES IN THIS PACKAGE WERE CREATED BY ME. PLEASE CONTACT ME AND SEEK PERMISSION BEFORE USING ANY OF THESE RESOURCES IN YOUR OWN MODS!
