| JA SP Level: Anyone interested? | |
|
Virtue - Jedi Council  |
Me being me, was having a few silly thoughts this afternoon and came up with an idea to make a Single Player Level based around the Academy. Got great ideas for the level, although I havn't thought up a story line for it yet. But basically, I'mma make it so that you play a New Student to the Academy training with a JAT when something terrible happens, blah, blah, blah. I'm gonna be making loads of new skins for it, including the player skin (Let's face it, playing as Kyle in this scenario would be NO FUN!). This way, as you make your way through the Academy, you will meet and interact with several existing Academy members, like DJ Sith or Luke Skywalker. Even good old Jakey boy. Each member will hopefully be individually voiced. I'mma try and implement some helpful tips reguarding MP Playing and such, but the level will really just be for fun. What do you guys think? Good Idea? If so, tell me - What would you like to see in the level? What kind of situations shall we put the player through? And also, any good ideas for a storyline would be great.  Let me know what you think. - Virty.  _______________ Academy Architect |

The only reason why I would mess around with this is because it's totally centered around the Academy; I would pay to hear Luke and good ol' Jake in their own game.  But when I read this post for the first time, I actually thought that it was already being done, seeing as how JK: JA is being developed. In either case, keep going with your work here, cause I think it's a really cool endeavor and it will be interesting to see how this comes out. _______________ memento mori |

i was thinking that this could be not only a fun map to play, but could also be used as a training map. for example i think that there should be a large section donated to movement. where the player/hero has to maneuver through a series of obstacles and pitfalls. i also think that there should be a large focus on guns. the saber is important, but guns are vital. then when/if you convert the map to MP, students could use these areas for specific training. |

If no one else comes up with any more storylines by Saturday, that's when I'll decide. So you got 2 days guys!!! For people who want to be in it, I'm making a Special post for that here on the Academy Discussion Forum, it should be up in a few minutes, so check it out guys! It'd be simple to convert it to MP Jake, All I'd have to do is replace a few entities, the map will still look the same, but I'd have to make it a bit smaller. I'd just cut out some pointless corridoors and key holding rooms. Maybe I'll trash DJ's office while I'm at it. LOL. The X-Wing models are part of JO's models. You can implement them just like you can implement NPCs (Right Click XYZ View, Select misc>misc_model then choose the model you want to put in. (GTK Radient is best for this, as in JK2Radient, you won't see the models untill you compile and test them in game. One final request: GO TO THE CASTING THREAD!!! - Virty. _______________ Academy Architect |

by the way, if you make your map proper ub3r, like well academy accurate. Would it be possible to convert it to multiplayer ? If its really really good, I could see it being the next potential JA map , lets get the singleplayer project out the way first _______________ Apprenctice of Jedi Master Ascari (deceased) Descended from a line of great Jedi Will argue any point of view from any side

grr i wrote a good post now then my cpu had to restart. Well what i said i n short was that the hanger rocked and reminded me of the ep1 hanger and how it would be cool to have a videoed fight between say massidoobie and the top dark jedi like in the actual game between dessan and luke. Oh and couldnt we get some of the other skinners.modders/level desiners in on this. i might have a go at at the storyline later. _______________ The real question is not whether machines think but whether men do.

w00t! Nice work Virty! Btw, don't expect that plot from me.... I am a very uncreative boy. (anyone remember the topic in #jedi-academy; "<Jacen_Aratan> asking me to come up with an idea is like trying to get it to rain <Acey_Spadey> yeah, you can always depend on the rain" ? ) |
