Whew, there are probably some people I forgot to include, sorry about that.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: Just extract the desired pk3 file and put it in your Gamedata/base folder. The mods are split into single pk3's so you don't get anything you don't want. Obviously, two different lightning fx will not work together. You can combine any one lightning effect with all 3 of the weapon fx, the force push effect, the force pike, and the new animation.
MOD DESCRIPTION: This pack contains 10 different force lightning effects, a new force push effect, 3 weapon effects replacements, a new saber-type weapon, and a new 2 handed force lightning stance.
Lightning fx -
1. Datastream
2. DragonRoar
3. Lightning type 1
4. Lightning type 2
5. Lightning type 3
6. Lightning type 4
7. Lightning type 5
8. Psychburst
9. Stardust
10. Twister
Push fx -
1. Shockwave
Weapon fx -
1. Arc Caster
2. Megawatt Rocket Launcher
3. Plasma Detonator
Sabers -
1. Force Pike
Animations -
1. New 2 handed lightning stance
2. New force push anim (with Shockwave fx)
Most of the fx come in several different colors such as blue, green, orange, pink, purple, red, yellow, white, and black.
BUGS: The fx for the force pike point the wrong direction in mp. The shockwave effect goes only in one direction (no matter what direction you are facing) in mp. Sometimes the wings in the DragonRoar effect don't line up properly with the player. The arc caster sometimes behaves oddly in mp. Also, this isn't really a bug, but the new lightning animation cannot be used at the same time as the new force push fx since that also uses a new animation.
THANKS TO: The people responsible for making JK3. Also, the people behind the amazing games inFAMOUS and inFAMOUS 2, which were a big inspiration for a lot of these mods.
ATTENTION: If you wish to use or alter anything included in this pack in a mod of your own, just send me an email and odds are I will agree to let you do so.
