!THE "REALLY IMPORTANT" README!
Name of file: eu_kazi.pk3
Compilation time: ?Spanned over a couple of weeks, then tweaked constantly
Size: 8539 kilobytes / 8.5 megs
Date Released to JK3Files: March 3,2006
Date Started on project: Somewhere around 2003 when I played Jedi Outcast
Author: Kazi (member of the club "Hidden's Gaming Club")
My Email: kazi1032@hotmail.com
Credits: me, for making everything, and credits to the Quake III shader
manual for how to cloak Kami-Kazi, Korn for Kazi's taunt,
and Raven for the basic files (models, skin textures, sounds, etc)
Installation: Put the two PK3's into your Gamedata/base folder. To
uninstall, just delete the file, or move it to a higher folder
in your Jedi Academy folder heiarchy (such as putting it directly
into the Gamedata folder)
The eu_kazi.pk3 file will put all the characters into the game,
and the kami_kazi_jetpack_mod.pk3 will change the default jetpack
to the one that matches Kami-Kazi's. I suggest you put them both in.
When using the jetpack on a JA+ server or wherever, use the
model named "kami-kazi/nopack" or "kami-kazi_c/nopack" with the
command "model [one of the two models above]".
Description/File Contents/Background Story:
OK, so this is my personal skin pack, mostly using kazi_ja.
Sometimes when the mood is right (like Taspir) i'll use Kami-Kazi.
Kazi is a Jedi from the time of Kyle Katarn. He had completed his
training before Kyle and Jan met Luke, though. He is about 30 years
old, and lives in his home (with the others in this pack) on the
planet of Coruscant. Kami-Kazi is his alter-ego. Not an official
Mandalor, he was dispatched to take out one and decided to take
the dead one's for himself, making minor color changes to fit his
tastes. Basically a good guy. Kiandra is his long-time friend
and a classmate from the academy. There is nothing going on between
them...yet? Genjin is another one of Kazi's friends from the
academy. He is an introverted Kel-Dor, and he is in possession
of a crystal of unknown/mysterious/suspicious origins...and he
likes the color turquoise. Nareeto and Odeef are twin rodian jedi
that Kazi met on a rescue mission on a seccluded planet a little
ways beyond the Outer Rim. Kazi uses orange sabers, Kiandra with a
blue-bladed Praetor, Genjin uses blue and green sabers modeled
after Obi-Wan's saber, the rodian twins both use a green Counsel.
This file contains all of the above mentioned characters, and also
a cloaked Kami-Kazi! :D
Added value: the skins kazi_jo and kiandra_jo were basially my
first attempts at a good skin, back in the days of Jedi Outcast.
They are unmodified from their original versions, and seeing
as how they were made with MS Paint (Photoshop ONLY used for color
tweaking), they aren't the best quality, but they're old school.
Taking the faces, I downloaded the program "GIMP 2.2" (basically
a FREE Photoshop) and softened them a little bit, and roughed up
Kazi's, adding some claw-mark scars and some stray hairs. All of
these models came from ideas based of of Lego mini-figures. A
predescessor to Kazi is the late Doy-yo-daa, who was tragically
killed by a giant, nuclear-fusion powered toaster (I was playing
in my kitchen ;_; ). I plan to sometime make him when I am bored
and feel like skinning something. He would look something like a
Reborn with a red hood, red sleeves, red belt, and white clothes,
with a red saber blade (he is a good Jedi though).
-=I am also looking for a modeler to make me a vehicle based
off of Kazi's starfighter and the Rodian twins' ship
(these are two different ones), and to teach me the basics so
I can fashion myself a custom hilt.=-
Comments: I cannot get the bot sabers to be the right color, as well as the
NPC's sabers too. I also tried to keep the sound folder size to a
minimum, but i might have repeated some of from assets0.pk3. Kazi's
taunt is from a song called Twist, by Korn. I released this file so
my friends and the visitors don't see me as an old Kyle model...
Bugs: No really bad bugs known...
