There are ZeroMandalorian Armor Sets in game for players: Past, present, and with luck, future.


The Dev's/CRS's have said this several times, though people still like try andbring attention to themselves by saying it is in game and they have some.


There were some rumors that someone in Beta found a piece but was never confirmed, (ie: never existed)


As for the screen shots you may have seen. There were some shots from a guy who edited his client files (files on his PC) to make him look like Fett, Vader, and Luke. Doing this only he sees the difference. No other player on the serverwould see the change.


Move along, move along.

And I still wait for someone to post or PM me a link to this mod, so I can take some screenshots for a forum sig..

Search the forums for "light saber mod" or something. Someone a while back isolated the files for the saber models then made copies of the files and renamed them for different weapons like reinforced staff. So whenever you pull out a reinforced staff it called the light saber model file. In the same post, someone did the same with the mandalorian armor. Whenever bone armor was equipped, it called the Mandalorian Armor model files. Like someone said, only people that mod see the changes......

If so I think that SOE messed up. Mandalorian armor should be limited to BH. That guy is TKA

"It's not done with a photo editor, the guy swapped the image file for bone armor and Mandolorian armor on his client side files. He is the only one that sees himself wearing it, everyone else sees the bone armor he is really wearing."


Exactly, I used to do the same thing in DAoC so that I could dual wield two long blades. All you have to do is rename the "Mandolorian" armor file to replace the "Bone" armor file, and SWG pulls up that image map whenever the game calls for it. You're the only one to see the change, as everyone else's client pulls up their bone armor file, which is unchanged on their computer.


The only issue with it is that everyone wearing bone armor would then be seen in the same Mandolorian armor that you're wearing, such as apparently the shopkeeper in that picture someone mentioned. It's a cute trick, but grows dull pretty quickly after seeing everyone in your game wearing it.

Also, how do you open those files in the SWG prog file that aren't text docs?

Explain to me why continuity is at risk if we let people wear neat looking armour. However noone says a thing when Jedi are running rampant... How many were there supposed to be in this time frame in the movies again?

There is only ONE known set of Mandalorian Armor at this time.


When I say "known" I mean not the hidden sets or those that had suits that did not reveal themselves. Only Boba Fett has the suit, THATS IT!

What forum are you in? We say tons of **edit** about Jedi running around rampant. Me especially, I want it to stop. And I certainly don't want to see the Jedi replaced with people in Mandalorian. Even if it where harder to obtain.
