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.

if we can all post times to get together, and finalise the decisions, ill be happy to make the skin pack and hold it until sonmeone can O.K. it and upload it. alternatively, somone who knows more about it than i do can probably do a neater job. we still just need to get together and make a list of what goes in and we can take it from there.

I'll take responsibility for us falling behind. Some RL things have kept me out of town for most of this week and I've been unable to organize this. We'll get it finished. I'll be back home sometime tomorrow.

could the cleanup crew please post the days and times available so we can all try to get together at the same time to finalise updates and additions so the skinpack can be assembled?

Thanks for the offer, tarpman, but it's not necessary. It's easy enough for me to just fetch the sound files myself, from Outcast.

The problem is, though, that I can't use the sounds on the Academy server, as it is a pure server...

Now I do like pure servers, but perhaps such enhancements could at least be put on as possible *extra* downloads (eg. not necessary, but those willing can dl them for flavour)?

A lot of the suggested replacements I like. I really like the comparision pics, that helps a ton! I'm not so sure I'm crazy about the second Han skin.

In that connection, might I suggest adding the Outcast sounds for especially Desann, but also teh Shadow Soldier and whoever else suffers from the generic human voice in Academy?

Dessann with his uber voice restored would be sweet...:cool:

I've been whining on the same issue for some time. Anybody who wants a .pk3 that fixes this issue by putting back the JK2 sounds, PM me and I'll get it to you somehow.

EDIT: fixed the quote tags :o

We're trying to reduce the size of the Skin Pack, then add any new or replacement files to spice it up a bit. ;)

New skins?

In that connection, might I suggest adding the Outcast sounds for especially Desann, but also teh Shadow Soldier and whoever else suffers from the generic human voice in Academy?

Dessann with his uber voice restored would be sweet...:cool:

Also, a KotOR skinpack could be awesome...
