do you guys wanna know the reason a lightsaber woudnt work for normal folks?: It's because the "blade" has no weight; its made of light, therefore there's no equilibrium, ergo a human would not be able to wield it effectively. . .they would end up cutting there arm of or something. Try this get a stick about the length of a lightsaber hilt and try to twirl it about all fancy-like, like in star wars. . .aint gonna happen

That is not totally true, it does the cutting for you, so if you swing it with power you will lose an arm, the trick is to let it to the work you just have to move it around lightly.....

 

That's how i see it, (plus seeing the blade would help a great deal with not cutting your arm off_

what are we waiting for? someone just go and make the mod!

 

make the lightsaber as an optional file for those who don't want it, same with the storm troopers.

 

there, simple.

 

and if you don't think it fits the "fallout world" then zip your mouth and don't dowload, no one is forcing you to, and if enough people want it, you guys should be fighting over who gets to make it, because to make it means your mod gets popular.

 

and you shouldn't try to force your veiws of what fits the game and what doesn't on other people, if we want it that bad, we'll make it fit, and if it betters the gaming experience, then who cares?

i dont think you guys took my lightsaber thing the right way; I totally want it in game i was just explaining why you only see force adepts using them in the star wars universe. . .you need some sort of i dont know how to best explain it. i guess you need some sort of support like the energy of the force to be able to know how to move the saber in the paths that it needs to take in order to look as good as it does in the movies and games. . .if the sabers (other than the ones already in game) get made i would hope that the maker waits till importing animations is viable because that undisciplined manner of melee combat in fallout three just doesnt cut it, i want styles like ataru and vapaad

Actually George Lucas himself has been very adamant about the weight of a lightsaber and that they are very heavy, if you pick up a lightsaber unignited you'll notice two things, one, it weighs about 50 lbs, second it's main weight is right at the tip,

 

A well balanced sword has the center of balance right at the crossguard, so even if the blade itself has no weight the hilt alone can balance the weapon.

 

so Darth Maul's Lightsaber must have weighed in somewhere between 100-200 lbs, likely on the order of 150.

 

makes the swift use of them in the prequels even more impressive.

 

personally I always liked the empire, and I don't think Stormtrooper armour would be terribly appropriate, now Sandtrooper armour on the other hand.

thank you, sir. . .very good point indeed. . .we shall win this day,yet. . . . . .but, anyway if the saber is brought in maybe create a perk or skill witch deals with psyonics or something. . .make it a requirement for using it oh and like i said earlier. . .saber styles my favorite being makashi (thats dooku's style if you didnt know)

Model is almost done, then going to work on textures, then modifying a projectile in the geck to look like a blaster bolt, then importing everything in.

ETA 4 hours to 2 days.
