com Website: *none* Two files: bloodPLUS1.5.pk3 (1.1 MB) and bloodPLUS3.1.pk3 (1.2 MB) Released May 2008 'Structions: Drop one of the .pk3s into your Jedi Academy/Gamedata/base folder and fire up th e game. This mod works with both singleplayer and multiplayer. Only use one of the variants at a time, though - don't use both 1.5 and 3.1 - to avoid problems . ****************** Description: This mod attempts to provide a more immersive hack-slash experience than the def ault sparks and sparkles that get chucked out when you stab someone normally (or shoot - this mod works with guns as well, with the exception of the Stouker). I was obsessed with the game BloodRayne at the time of authoring this so it may bear some resemblance. This mod comes in two versions - 1.5 and 3.1. 1.5 - lots of big, wide sprites (I think that's what they're called) all over th e place; emphasis on volume and area coverage. Extreme dismemberment and small red puff-clouds on gun and saber impacts. Saber impact and particle splatting s ounds may be a little loud, but I like the explosive water-baloon-popping sort o f aura they help create. 3.1 - a move toward smaller textures that spurt more often. More diversity with in the sprites themselves and a trend toward more splatter but less red (less gr ound coverage). Same amount of dismemberment. Added tails (for us nerds who kn ow what those are) to go jetting out on saber hits and paste small bits of gore wherever they land. The downside is that with so many more images getting drawn everywhere, the game erases old sprites in order to let the new ones land, so s ometimes it looks like the blood's evaporating wicked fast as new blood lands on the ground. For this reason, 3.1 may be more suited to single player, when the re tends to be more time between killings. The sounds in 3.1 are a bit less spl ooshy and more splattery. This mod also declares "helpusobi 1" to facilitate singleplayer cheating. ****************** CREDIT to Jedi_Mediator for a few great textures that are od to Dark_Maul for the Bloody_Dismemberment mod that to the game BloodRayne for overall inspiration and aesthetics to the developers of GIMP (for the GIMP) to the JKA community for mods that helped me learn present (in pieces) in this m I patterned after as a model for sound and gore the shader syntax

BUGS: not a bug, but the blood is a bit much if you decide to use a gun. Unreal istic. COMMENTS: Enjoy, and feel free to bust it open and use anything in your own mod. You don't have to let me know, but I'd really like to see what gets done with my stuff. Drop me an email or something.
