Looks pretty good. Only Mandalorians are super elite mercenaries and not pushover robots.
Look at Boba. He survived the Clone wars, the Galactic Civil War and the Sarlacc. There's a few books about it, and in Jedi Academy he occurs as a boss, which takes place 10 years after Episode 6.

Post Re: Mandalorian
I am only going to say two things about this. Only 2.


1) These sprites, for what you call them specifically, are decent. I might test this mod a week from now, when I am settled into my new home. I'm on my laptop and can't run CC right now. its gonna be a freaking week.

2) Boba fett was not a mandalorian. Slave 1 is not a mandalorian ship. Jango fett is not a mandalorian. Boba/jango fett's armor is not mandalorian armor. Boba fett's armor is ONLY visually stylized after the mandalorians, a race which was dead for what was it +15,000 years or some crap*? the mandalorians where a dead race when jango fett was a kid, in fact the majority of people in the starwars universe even knew of them. the exception being people who know and archive everything, IE the jedi. they would have barely been mentioned in history books.

(* no i am not actually claiming 15,000 years, but simply stating it was a long as time, but I forgot the exact number, I know it was several centuries at a minimum.)

#2 aside, this still looks decent. at least playable.

The dropship recolor looks like it has a smile with a red tongue sticking out in the middle.

Maybe I'm the only one seeing that. Also, darken it. It's rapebright. The actors are alright though. Good firsts.

Wow, you're right, it does have a face...
A dropship I made once had a face, I have no idea why.

Wrong crap about the Mandalorians

Those you're thinking of are the Taung... Being a Mandalorian involves a certain lifestyle (space Spartans), not being part of a certain species. "Family is more than blood"...

Post Re: Mandalorian
yeah fair points about the mandalorian element of it I just went with the wiki for the backstory side of things I have never read the books and only really bothered with the original trilogy.

Appologies to hardcore SW fans.

I will probably try to resprite a chunkier actor for the next itteration.

I might see if darlos minds if I resprite using his Darkstorm shinobi as it like the way it moves.

Failing that I will probably have a go at making an actor from scratch (I need to learn that stuff next neway)

Just got time constrains like most of us, on the plus side I should be releasing some home made SFX soon as my other hobby is beginning to learn music production :D

Actually, Jango was the leader of the Mandalorians before he became a bounty hunter. The Mandalorians were defeated in a war with the Jedi, in which a few like Jango survived. Boba was not born a Mandalorian, and is not a true Mandalorian, but after Episode 6 he actually joins the Mandalorians and becomes their leader. From there, he becomes old and then his daughter, who is like 50, is chasing him down trying to kill him.

Both Boba and the clones are mandalorians. Accepting and living by the mandalorian code makes you one, not being born in a mandalorian family.

DUMMIES ARE YELLOW, NO EXCEPTIONS.


Totally Agreed with Hitler's ghost, classic style must keep classic.
In other order of things, boba fett cannot be a tiny guy, its a STRONG BOUNTYHUNTER

Anyway, Have you though to make different kind of mandalorians?
Or just crusaders? [Star Wars frikism getting dangerous high]

Ah, Star Wars fanboyism.

@Boba_Fett: Lolwut. I thought Boba dies; how, then, would he become leader of this race that most Star Wars watchers haven't even heard of?

And... wait, what? There's an after episode 6?

Usually they are. Star Wars books have to be approved by LucasArts so yes, they are official.
