We have a small group of students selected to put together a new skinpack for the JA. These guys will be working through the next couple of weeks to make a smaller yet better skinpack. Suggestions are welcome :).

#ja-cleanup in IRC
********************************************

Here our your objectives, you must be done by March 12th:
1. Trim down the skinpack to a size no greater than 40mb
2. Remove worthless/unsuable/not used pk3s
3. Replace pk3s that have better/newer versions
4. Add whatever is good as long as you meet the size limit.

Use this thread and #ja-cleanup, thx guys!

##################
# Plan of Action #
##################

Phase 1: Cuts
Deadline: March 5th @ 2400 UTC

Each member of the cleanup crew will vote on every pk3 in the current skinpack list. You will vote to either keep that pk3 or remove it. On the 5th @ 2400 UTC (GMT), voting will cease and all votes will be tallied. Skins will be removed if they recieve more than 50% of cutting vote. You will post your voting results here in this thread.

Phase 2: Updates
Deadline: March 9th @ 2400 UTC

For the skins that are staying, we will look for newer/better versions of them. Post which pk3s you'd like to provide updates for in this thread (please include links to a page with screenshots/pk3 to the newer one). All update submissions will be in by March 9th @ 2400 UTC. The cleanup crew will then have 1 day to vote yay/nay on each proposed update. Votes will no longer be taken by March 10th @ 2400 UTC. The passing updates will be added to the skinpack.

Phase 3: Additions
Deadline: March 11th @ 2400 UTC

With what space is left after cuts and updates, the crew can propose new additions to the skinpack. Additions can no longer be proposed after March 9th @ 2400 UTC. Then each member will vote on each proposition. On March 11th @ 2400 UTC, votes will be tallied and additions made based on which ones have the most votes (until we reach the size limit).

Phase 4: Assembly
Deadline: March 12th @ 2400 UTC

The new skinpack will be put together. It will be uploaded to all JA servers replacing the old skinpack and the Servers page will be updated. A newspost will be made announcing the update.

There shouldn't be much problem with that from lucas arts, considering that you are taking parts from one star wars game and putting them in another game of the same franchise?

Any chance you would like to share that KotOR pack of yours? I can't find it anywhere...

the skeletons are done poorly for jka.

The hands dont animate properly, The complex shaders cause massive fps lag for some of the models, and Canderous has no neck almost :(

But sence they are ported models, they look just like they should in kotor. The faces animate as they should, and the riped sounds are quite good. People have even reskin'd some of them to be closer to kotor2 (hk47 mainly, and i think one of mission)

Im still trying to find the model for Jedi Malak that was used, but i shouldn't be, as they are illegal.

so i never saw these models in action ;) This is all second hand info i have :eek:

Hey guys, while we were all out finding updates, Dane had some connection trouble and was unable to participate in finding some of his own. Sure he was a little late, but I'd hate to leave out his nice suggestions. So, I'll leave a list and 3 more days to edit your votes before posting the results.

PloKoonVM.pk3 1 2
ct_windu.pk3 1 2
glm_aayla.pk3 1 2 3
mc_hansolo.pk3 1
quinlan_vos.pk3 1
cheshire_arco_vader.pk3 1 2
glm_Maul_Model.pk3 1
glm_epi1obi.pk3 1 2

Voting will work in the same way, but I'll quote anyway:

Quote:
To vote, just post the current filenames with the number "1" or "2" next to it so that I know which model version you're referring to. You don't need to include those you don't want updating, but feel free to use a "0" to refer to the current version anyway. I'll provide an example below:

glm_aayla.pk3 - 2
cheshire_arco_vader.pk3 - 1
mc_hansolo.pk3 - 0
glm_Maul_Model.pk3 - 1

Let t3h voting begin! :D

Note: If there's anything you're not sure of above, please contact me. ;)
