CREDITS

Nobody to credit this time. That makes me kind of sad inside...

--------------------------
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
--------------------------
Put saber_forge.pk3 in your gamedata/base directory within your Jedi Academy directory.

If you would like the single_1 overwrite (read below) place saber_forge_overwrite in your gamedata/base directory within your Jedi Academy directory. This file requires saber_forge.pk3 to function.

DESCRIPTION
------------
I came up with a concept for a hilt that showed a 'window' into the inner workings of a lightsaber. After some research, I created what I believe to be an accurate representation of some of the parts of the lightsaber: the primary and secondary focusing crystals (and their mounts), the energy channeler, and the right and left energizers. There is also a second blade (which is untoggleable) that runs through the focusing crystals.. This is the beam that eventually becomes the larger blade we all see jutting out of lightsaber hilts.

An optional overwrite (of the saber single_1) is also included. If you decide you want it to overwite a different saber, do the following:

-open saber_forge_overwrite.pk3 and extract single_1.sab from ext_data>sabers
-change the file name to single_x.sab (x being the number you want to overwrite)
-open the file and change the first line which says "single_1" to "single_x" where x is once again the number you want to overwrite
-save and place back into the PK3

----------------------
SPAWN INFORMATION
----------------------

The main hilt is designed to be purple, but since the crystal color is almost impossible to see in-game I opted not to change it. If I thought it was going to be visible I would have, believe me. It'll look fine regardless of what blade color you choose.

To use this in singleplayer, use the following command:

saber saber_forge

BUGS
-----
No bugs to speak of, that I've found.

COMMENTS
---------
This is kind of my personal hilt, but I'll probably never use it. I just kind of wanted to make something I designed myself rather than copying something. As you might've notice, I prefer a somewhat simpler style. No blades or spikes jutting out. Sorry :p
