Live by the Force

I've been using various references, mainly Ep3, and although the glow is tweaked to perfection, I haven't lined up the core with the saber handle in-game. If you look at the various pictures, the core width is determined by the width of the handle:



Core is handle, handle is core. Windu has a smaller core because of his handle.

I'll post some screens when I have it all yummy'd up.

[I should probably mention that the handle is seperate from the core/glow. The latest picture shows what I mean by not having it lined up.]

Trails are definatly a go, once I perfect the 'look at camera' portion of my code. It uses the same concept as the new TDiR flat beams did, where it yaws towards the camera.

However I noticed something I don't like. Say the saber is pitched straight out and you're looking at it, you can tell the glow is flat. I should have made it half a cylinder wrapped around the core so that you wouldn't be able to tell. After the many hours I spent getting the glow on the top of the blade looking right, I don't feel like tackling that right now.
