Hello Fans and thank you for tuning in to the latest update of The Clone Wars. As Many of you have seen we are working everyday to get this mod done but we are still a ways off from a release. I still have a lot of work I want to do on ground combat to give it a less FOC feel and more battlefront feel. As I have said I am working to make Infantry the most valueable unit. I am experimenting with barricades, blind areas only accessable to infantry to ambush vehicles, Infantry only areas, vehicles will have less visibility than infantry, etc.
Most of our models are done and most of what we have left for models are replacemnets for models that were not made by our team and props and improvements to existing models. We plan to make a new STAP, NR-99 Snail Droid, Hailfire, Nantex and Naboo N-1 fighter. We are also working on various shipyard models. I want to sincerely thank Dr. McKay who has been rigging better infantry models for us and improving old ones. This mod will have NO shortage of Republic heroes for you all and quite a few CIS ones. In fact my only concern is that we are adding too many but Starwars for me is about the heroes so I am trying to capture that.
The clones will work like this
- Tech 1 you can buy
-Clone Platoon complete with 4 sergeants and a lieutenant in proper color
-Clone Captain in red along with 4 clones who have grenades possibly droid poppers and a medic
-Clone Commander in yellow along with 4 clones who have grenades possibly droid poppers and a medic
- Tech 2-4 you can buy
-Clone Platoon complete with 4 sergeants and a lieutenant in just white
-Various Clone Captains in white and colors some will even have pauldron and Kama along with 4 clones who have grenades possibly droid poppers and a medic
-Clone Commander in various colors some will even have pauldron and Kama along with 4 clones who have grenades possibly droid poppers and a medic
-You will be able to purchase various pahse 1 units such as the 41st, Green Company, 501st, 212th, wolf pack, 327th
- Tech 5 you can buy
-Clone Platoon complete with 4 sergeants and a lieutenant in just white
-Various Clone Captains in various colors some will even have pauldron and Kama along with 4 clones who have grenades possibly droid poppers and a medic
-Clone Commander in various colors some will even have pauldron and Kama along with 4 clones who have grenades possibly droid poppers and a medic
-Most of the well known clone units will be purchaseable in Phase 2 armor.
-Various hero units will both spawn at certain tech levels on certain planets and will simply be on the appropriate map during land battles.
Different GC may have different clone structures such as one may only have the clones in Phase 1 armor in the rank colors, etc.
-At all times you will have republic troopers and planetary security available to build at most planets but they are weak compared to clones and a little more expensive sense you can't just grow them. You have to recruit and pay them. Kamino, Coruscant, Nelvann and Saleucami are the only planets you may build clone facilities.
Burntstrobe has been and will be making some very nice custom textures for the planets in the mod. Soon you guys will see some really cool planet textures for the more unique looking planets including Skako, Dathomir and Raxus Prime. We are even hoping to add a Lola Sayo model.
Coming Soon
-Quilan Vos
New Planets being added.
-Umbara
-Lola Sayu
-Kiros
-Zygeria
-Ukio
-Deveron
Update 1/28/12
Commander contest. Here is your chance to contribute and get your name in the credits for this mod. As stated in this update there will be several buildable commanders and captain teams available to give the player a feeling that each commander/ captain is a unique clone like in the show. This means I have a few custom characters to add so I would like to see some fans contribute there designs for some cool commanders. We will then choose a few of the designs and put them on a commanders. So heres the rules
Click this link
Dl.dropbox.com
In the file you will find 5 image documents. The clone parts will be pretty obvious in them. Add your designs to the clone. There is one with a phase 1 helmet and one with Phase 2, you can do one or both. Up to you. Take your time and make them look nice.
Give your Commander/ Captain a name and send the images to gijoe667@yahoo.com
Include some info about your clone. Do they have a shoulder pauldron, Kama, Pistol holster, etc. Please don't get too fancy as we will not be rigging any new clones for these designs. Just using what we have.
GREAT¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Really nice umbara
GREAT WORK =0
looking really good. wishing I was this organised
great Umbaran tower!
if you guys want some canonical inspiration for Umbara, i suggest you go to clone wars adventures. it has a new area of Umbara, and it is incredibly detailed!
that phase 2 Rex is amazing! looks straight from the show.
(edit) how do you get modded units/structures/scenery to show up in the Foc Map Editor? I can never figure out how.
click on the object you want and on the map press shift
Not what he's asking. You have to code it into the respective props files into the main game. This disables online play. Also you need to put the models in there.
thanks! how do you do that?
(edit) and multiplayer isnt a problem, as i do not have a "new" installation code
damn this looks good, great job
The special will be Umbara: undetectable to the enemy?
Since you're adding some many heroes for the Republic, how about adding all the members of the Separatist Council. Wat Tambor, Gunray, and Poggle are already in the mod so you could the rest. Unless you're one step ahead and they're already going to be added.
Just to make sure, you ARE adding the Nulls in this, right?
I see you guys have made a lot of progress on this mod. Anything I did still remain?
I love playing this mod and cant wait for next release. Do you have an estimate for next version?
Some ideas you could play around with maybe?
Adding a LAAT/c that carries a ATOT, very heavy armor and carries lots of troops.
maybe Ahsoka is own unit--controls the twilight ship
Anakin/r2d2 is own unit and controls his star fighter
All capital ships with a hero on board can use ability "escape pod" cannot be destroyed and hero escapes to nearby planet also capital
ship can fight after hero leaves
major planets can recruit mercs. Kashyyyk=wookies ...Mandalore=mandalorians...etc reply if any ideas
some other ideas
add arc troopers only build on kamino?
and senate guards only on coruscant?
I do not think the escape pod idea would work, Maybe as an ability yes, but not as you described the function of it, And it would be too easy to survive with the heroes the hole time.
Wow, this new version looks absolutely awesome! Hats off to you guys for this. I've been looking at the new vids and pics and the new additions really do give a feel of the Clone Wars series. I like the new voice and animations. Mace Windu looks really realistic! Is it possible to make Aayla Secura's features a little more like the Clone Wars series Aayla's face and body than the film's?
