Erm, your not gonna be able to get that in-game im afraid, unless you lower its vert limit.

You can divide it into certain pieces, but, that hilt will lag the crap outta people because of its detail lol.

It wont work Graanto because blender dosen't do JKA.

Listen to me a sec lol,

I make saber models, and although yours looks nice, even if you managed to export it, you wont be able to use it. It has too many sides. I see about 18. The max you can have is about 10 with high detail. 6-8 with low detail.

You need Gmax before you can start doing this really.
