Hey people - just a quick idea to throw in on the subject of lightsaber development.
You could have two swords, one with the handle, one without. An NPC lets you turn it on (takes old sword, gives new one) and it stays turned on for an hour before you get recalled back to the NPC and the switch done again. (Or even better, switch done without recall-- if this is possible?)
Let's you have on and off lightsabers, and allows you to have some SERIOUS stats on the beasts without completely recking the game. (Especially if it takes 3 impact drugs or something to turn it on.) Then people could have, and want to have, lightsabers -- would be a rare and valuable weapon, but despite the best stats it wouldn't necessarily be the ultimate weapon. Good for a burst but need another weapon for long term hunting.
Could easily be modified in the wil files. Just have to sort out the standing still images from attack images, then it'll only come visible when attacking...
*Added to "To Do List" thanks
*Edit: ATM I have 5 diff coloured sabers. Just finished off the weapon.wil, should look pretty good online.
The 5 diff colours are: Green, Red, Blue, Purple and Orange, these should "hopefully" spice up a few servers...
**Note: The attached archive is NOT the files needed to use the patch, merely images of the sabers from the stateitem.wil.
**Edit 2: A Cry For HELP!!!... As I stated at the beginning, I'm not graphically minded, in fact I'm pants at graphix :S Would anyone like to attempt creation of the armours for the hum?? Seeing the work involved, a no will not be an insult lol
