THIS IS SO AWESOME!! I have been waiting for someone to do this to a saber.I thought I would be the one to do it though.

I gave this a seven for good effort. And while I noticed you made the primary blade and the other two blades shorter, it looked funny when my normal lightsaber was sticking out of it.

I also found a bug in your mod. Try this in Valley of the Jedi Tower and see if you can re-produce it. Ignite the triple saber then fall off a catwalk into the depths. Now when I came back I noticed no ignition sound and fire1 and fire2 did NOT work for the lightsaber.

Switching to fists then back again to the saber started the ignition sound and I was able to once more use fire1 and fire2.

Some suggestions for this mod. Use glowsaber technology on it, perhaps even the glowsaber technology used in Sabers-X (SBX) and give the player a option to change the color of all 3 blades at once or change each blade color individually.

PS whats next a 4 blade saber? LOL =D

I thought about making something like this a long time ago. I never did work on it though. I advise u spice it up a little by adding skins and maybe some glowsaber. I don't know if glowsaber is available for use in other projects without permission so u would have to ask Van probably. Looks like this could be coll if u continue with it.

This was a fun twist on Sabers NF. Made me feel like Tenchi Masaki!

I give it a 5. Mainly because there's no way to turn the extra blades off, and the secondary fire attack looks awkward with 3 blades. Is there any way to change the secondary fire attack pattern?

I'd think about changing the color of the blades (anything but blue or green), and maybe changing it so that when you hit secondary fire, the saber spins (like an electric fan blade).

Gave it an 8 for its creativity, i mean comon guys this mod is awsome. Solo is right though, it duz need a little somethin extra (i.e., skins,different forces, and/or glowsaber effect) uve def. hit big with this idea but before this mod reaches that 9-10 rating it needs a little work!

It was just a simple little mod, don't look for too much in it. And I really don't think skins are neccesary for a saber mod. If you want skins just run a skin patch with it.

Pengun is right. It's obvious that Flexor COULD do a lot of things with this mod. It's just a little neato addition to the quickly growing arena of sabers mods.

(I beta tested this patch)
I give it a 4 for effort.
It's good, but I don't like the idea.
3-bladed saber is overkill caused by TPM and shouldn't be made.

Thanks for the comments everyone. Someone mentioned earlier that his normal lightsaber was sticking out of the top blade. I had to do that because otherwise the dark jedi's sabers in singleplayer don't work. To fix this, just create a new multiplayer character.

This mod lays the smackdown on all other lightsaber mods! I give it an 8.

Hi, I don't really make levels or mods yet, but I'm looking for a place to start, I've had a few saber designs in my head for a while, if you send me an email at JA_IceLord@hotmail.com, I'd like to work with you on a new project. I probably won't check back to this comments board (massassi's too huge an I'll probably forget) so email and we can talk. my zone name as you may have well guessed is JA_IceLord ;)

I give it a 7. It's just something he did for fun. My only beef is that 3 blades isn't even possible in JK...there's only flags for 2. (to my knowledge)

Actually, the first double bladed lightsaber wasn't from TPM, it was from Tales of the Jedi. Exar Kun built the first one. It wasn't as effective, as it's handle was too short (looked like a plain saber with another blade).

Holy Mad Magazine rip off. I gave it a 10 it is the best saber I have seen so far.

Actually, Exar Kun was not the first with a double bladed saber. It was another dark jedi around the time when the sith were like the jedi of today... That is, like an academy... Not a 2 sith at a time that Bane started. But i dunt remember his name.

I rated this a 3, because the two other sabers do not cause any damage. While I'm not sure if it's possible to have all three active, I know it's possible to have two do damage at least. I mean, I couldn't hit people half the time, whereas a triple-bladed saber like this should make it three times more likely, right?

Still, this is not a BAD attempt at a first mod... just more of a visual improvement, really.

JK doesn't support 3 sabers. Don't rate a mod so low based on what the engine can and cannot do. It's unfair.

lol i think its funny how in all games, everyone strives to create and attain to the BIGGEST and BADDEST weapon, with this saber being no exception. weapons modelled after the classic BFG for example - the redeemer, rocketlaunchers, frag cannons and plasma rifles that destroy everything in its path =) its funny how ppl enjoy gettin their paws on the hugest thing they can find so they can decimate the most, in the least amount of time, with the most amount of effect and least amount of skill ;)

I dont think this saber is an exception =) i looked at the name on the mainpage and i laffed, opened the screenshot and i laffed harder ;) nothin against you man, but you gotta unhinge your creativity from that sorta scenario and find something more fresh ;)

come on i know all you guys want is eventually be able to use a big, orb of glowing highly charged photon disc =) lets skip the 4-bladed, 5-bladed and 6-bladed (ect) sabers all together and jump straight to the good stuff =)

Not at all, you can still kill someone faster with a conc or rail. If I wanted to do a big weapon that could kill faster, I would've done something a little more... destructive.. (insert evil laugh here)

what i meant was in the line of sabers particularly =) you obviously can't compare a saber with a projectile weapon - i was comparing with the single and double bladed saber and only using the BFG and projectile weapons like that as examples to prove my point of that category =)

Hey Flexor, you're right; I am rating the engine more than the mod heh. I'm sorry, I feel kind of bad. I gave your Lava Chamber level a 10 =) It deserves it! Very fun!

What kind of loser would embaress himself enough to put this piece of junk on Massassi?!! DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS MOD!!!!!!!!!
He thinks this is so great that he replaces every weopon with that stupid saber, you actually need something to protect yourself seeing as the saber doesn't block. I gave this a ZERO because there were no lower numbers. I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of N/A. I really wish Massassi had negative rating numbers.

Good mod...really only have the same complaints that have been registered here before (except the one above - ugh). Ya know, if ya want to get together, I've got some levels lying around on my HD that we could compile, I've got a few skins laying around...

Hi im kinda new to editing (actually the only thing ive done with editing is to set the cost of force speed to 0) I was wondering if anyone would make a mod that uses a saber in EACH HAND(I know ppl have thought of this b4, but prolly never did it.) please e-mail me at q_manning2000@hotmail.com if you want to do it (cause I obviously can't)just give credit 2 me for suggesting it and ill beta test :)

Tons of people had that idea, the only problem is that it would be extrmely difficult, if not impossible to do in JK.

Hey this is really neat.
Try this! Try making this Mod for Mystries of the Sith and try it with the force saber throw and see how it looks.

An interesting mod to say the least. I'm off to go try it now. I just hope that the other 2 blades can make some damage.

MAJOR BUG!!!! After i've taken out the saber thingy, and then go back to fists, the sound for the saber-idle is still heard, and no other noises other than the music can be heard. Also, u didn't have to replace every weapon with the saber. I gave it a 3 cuz it atleast kills people.

It's me (the wanna be student of flexor), but this ttime, i HAVE to disagree with him on the saber per hand issue... (it's kinda odd how the dark jedi, boc does it, ever look at that)
