(WIP) War on a Nameless World

[dodrarikaan]

Realizing I should make topics by mods instead of by issue. I have one final problem before I'm able to finalize this mod. I have a custom lightsaber hilt that I made in Blender, but in-game the lightsaber blade shows up "boxy", highlighting the boundary of the blade's box instead of retaining a blade-like shape. I tried comparing it to a new Blender file made with the default saber, but I don't see any obvious differences in the blade. Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong?

I'm using Blender 4.0, and I think I'm using KotorBlender 2.1.0

That version of kotorblender is many years old, the latest distro is here: https://github.com/OpenKotOR/kotorblender

 

I'm not even sure how you got that version of KOTORBlender, have you had it for years or is there somewhere you downloaded it from? I can only find the OG release and this version.

I downloaded it a couple of years back, so I don't really remember. I'll update my blender and kotorblender versions and see what I can figure out. Thanks, Vriff!

It's a WiP thread with nary a description of the mod and no mention of the progress either. More information please?

Sorry about that, first time making a WIP thread. This mod will add a new mini-story to the Rakata homeworld in which you have to stop a rogue Sith Lord from acquiring a cache of ancient Infinite Empire weapons so he can overthrow Malak. It includes 3 new areas, a number of unique enemies (including unique trooper armors found in my Sith Soldiers Recolored mod), as well as a large-scale boss battle in which your entire crew will rush to your aid! I'm working with a friend to fix a custom lightsaber hilt that will be one of the big rewards at the end. Once that is done, I will have just a little playtesting left before I am ready to release the mod.
