Description

In young years Nometh Mantera joined the imperial navy because he wanted to be a pilot. As his parents were not very rich, the Empire was his only chance to fulfil his plans. During the time in the navy he soon recognized his outstanding flight abilities. He quickly became a high ranked officer and was spezialized for secret projects. After the destruction of the second Death Star he served the Remnants for some years. But he already knew that his unusual abilities and strong will power were not normal. So he joined the Jedi Academy, where he was learned to use the force very quickly. He was strong with the force. One day he watched a training fight between a trainer and a fellow student. The apprentice was not able to control his powers. Nometh sensed his dark intentions, but he did not interude the fight, so the apprentice could eventually strike down his teacher. Nometh recognized his fault and immediately ran up to his fellow and defeated him in a rather short fight. Knowing that he could have saved the teachers life, he left the academy to become what he is now:

A man, incredibly strong with the force, neither a jedi, nor a sith. He makes his living through being a bounty hunter or overtaking other jobs where his abilities could be useful.

The story is good, GREAT! But this simply will not do... A reborn, that had different colors? Sorry to break it to you man, but its been done before. Would you consider becoming a book writer because your work is... It seriously sounds like reading the back of a star wars book to find out about the story, you are a talented writer but not a talented skinner, have a nice day! (4 for the effort and story.)

First of all I'd like to thank the asskicking fast massasi staff. Not even an hour after I submitted my skin they upped. That's just unbeatable.

Now to you Xanatos: I guess you did not download my skin, right? Unfortunately massassi did not post the comment I left in the readme.
Only for you the comments: Well this is my first skin for Jedi Outcast, actually it is the "character" I play with. So if you see a Nometh Mantera kicking your ass, that's just me honey ;)
The main features of this skin are of course team colors and bot support and a some sounds including a taunt, to fit in with the character.
I am aware that many people will dislike it, because it is almost flat black and is made up from a reborn model, but I made it mainly for myself, so I do not care.
But anyway, if you have any suggestions or wishes, feel free to mail me.

In addition to that I have to say that it is not just a black reborn skin Xanatos, the only reborntextures that were used is the hood and parts of the gloves. And it uses some unused sounds from the game, not the standard reborn ones. So give it a try Xanatos :D

Very good story. See if you can apply for a short story writer and/or write stories for the Star Wars Roleplaying Game in Star Wars Gamer. I don't like the skin too much because there's more potential in a Reborn skin than that. But keep trying and you'll have great stories AND skins the same.

I did not rate it yet cuz i have not had a chance to try it currently i would give it a 6 for the good story, seemingly nice textures and what appears to be a fairly good skining job, but after i do test it if i like it I will only change my score to a 7 because the reborn model as stated by xiantos earlier is getting quite booring (yes i understand u made it for yourself, but wouldn't you be happier with a different looking model?).

Excellent skin, I say a 10.

Just because it uses the Reborn model, doesn't mean it's a recolored Reborn! If you look closely, there's a new texture to everything, so right off the bat you can tell it's not a recolored Reborn. And if Raven materials ARE reused, so what? It still looks great, that's all that matters.

I thought this was great! Your clothing textures blend in nicely on the reborn... I think you made a new face, AND a new saber hilt? Very cool.

A retextured Reborn won't do? Why not? All the textures are brand new...

It's not easy to create models for JO, infact most people don't even have the software for which to do so. I cannot understand why people don't like a skin just because it has no new model.

Thanks for your replies people :)

I can understand that you get bored of retextured reborns. But as you can see, there are more people than just me who like it :)

Now to the story: I do not think I would be a good writer, actually I really suck at writing texts, though I have to admit that the story turned out better than I could imagine :D

And of course the text is not flawless. It's just because I am no native speaker. I'm german and I would appreiciate it if you could list up my mistakes :)

This is a cool skin, though hood=Reborn, so I see where all the criticism is coming from there... it is a good model, with a good story behind it, at least more of a story than most other skins. Also, Omses is just a critic gone over to the Dark Side, saying anything and everything sucks on toast. I would take an insult from him as a compliment. I say 9 for the combo of effort, story, and overall coolness. Btw: I hate to see a good skin get bashed just for being based partly off a Reborn (not everything with a hood is a Reborn, you guys...)
