Could you remove the hilts from the academy map or atleast say which file they are located in having to go past them while picking a saber all the time gets annoying after a while.

Also why are they even in it ?

I bet there are some hilts that those locations have that we don't have, I bet there are maps too that we don't use, or regular models. I know how about we go to every single server that runs jk3, check with the owners on what they are using and make sure that everyone is utilizing the exact same map models settings, force powers, all so we can make your life extra super easy, so you don't have to concern yourself about whether or not a server has a particular saber hilt or not that might be sitting somewhere on your hard drive.


What are you talking about ive not advocated including any custom content whatsoever.

Also no bwn, esl or base server that i know of uses custom content. Furthermore there is a major difference between maps/skins and hilts which is that they are able to change the actual combat aspect. Whereas a skin only changes appearance and a map the location. Although you might argue that a map's geography might have impact. Still not as much as a hilt can.


How about you go look at Virtue's hilts, check their specs and decide if they are making an impact. I bet they aren't. Everything else you post is pointless. We do things here the way we want to do them. The only person who seems to have this major problem with it is you.

Come on now, every Generation X boy wanted to be Luke Skywalker. Is it because he was a whiney farm boy from some backwater hack planet? No, it's because he was a FREAKING JEDI. He could block lasers with his lightsaber. He could levitate droids & rocks & crap with his mind. Come on, he choked two pig dudes with just a simple gesture. He cut off Darth Vader's hand and kicked him down a flight of stairs. He got his @$$ zapped by lightning from the geezer Emperor, stood up and said "s'at all you got b!tc#??"

Not in any noticable way does it affect the community here but people who spend time playing both here and playing other places such as bwn, esl, pure base etc. Where the hilts do not function.

Again why not simply make it a separate pk3 ?

Your argument is true except that it is the main map used by the entire community. And this is a quite large community although inactive.

If someone makes something made for the entire community i would think they would also try to service the community in things regarding it.

So i ask again why not simply make it a separate pk3 and let people choose ?

Why should he have to? Its his map. Its his hilts. Its his decision. If you designed something and decided that along with it you wanted to put something additional on, because its yours wouldn't you want to?

By the way that was to imply that I have no need to exert any real brain power when talking to you. An argument with you is like lifting a piece of paper. Its simple, and requires no effort to accomplish.

Why would i spend my time lifting up a piece of paper if it could be arranged that i never had to.

How about everytime you turned on a tv you had to press a button to go beyond a blank screen. Would you turn that feature off in the settings or would you keep pressing that button everytime you turned it on ?

Again why not simply make it a separate pk3.

So youve resorted to innuendos ?

Also at the botton of the site youve spelled Liaison wrong just thought you wanted to know.



God forbid we have any fun whatsoever. Tell you what shar, next time someone comes up with something that might be a little bit fun and enjoyable we'll run it passed you so you can decide if its something that a place like this should do.


Sure if you want to have any events that someone might find fun post it on my profile first.

If the only argument you can come up with is taking things i say to the extreme so can i.

Also does having two personal hilts add to the overall fun to be had on the map ? Or does it simply add to the fun of the person whom's hilts they are ?

Why not simply just make them separate pk3's and let people decide for themself ?
