Sometimes the Best Solution Is the Simplest: KotOR Modding Edition

I just learned the hard way that the phrase "sometimes the best solution is the simplest" can apply to KotoR modding as well. After the initial release of my KotOR 1 No Gendered Dialogue from Male NPCs mod, I was planning on adding another installation option to remove Holdan and Tanis Venn from the game entirely. I had spent a considerable amount of time and energy to figure out how to do it without causing bugs, and I want those changes to be made by setting up TSLPatcher to patch relevan

Character Creation Screen

Somebody asked if adding this back in was possible. However unfortunately changing that entry in the appearance.2da results in regular clothing giving the appearance of whatever it has been changed to. So for the time being I am not sure if this is possible, but I may look into it again at some point. If anybody knows otherwise, feel free to drop me a message.

If you follow the modding scene of Knights of the Old Republic, you might be aware of a conversation with Juhani where the player asks her why she is hostile towards Canderous. It is a commonly assumed that it is cut content, because the condition to trigger said conversation is unknown by the KotOR community, and there are mods that aim to restore said conversation. After thorough investigation into the game files, I finally discovered that it is actually possible to access Juhani's conver

Those were .max files but I converted them into .fbx format and managed to import them into blender I also used Holocron Toolset to extract ebon hawk or other ships to use them in Blender as well. With space backgrounds I managed to render some good images with those ships

Assault Korriban Academy

In early 2021, the concept of an aggressive and alternate path into the Korriban Academy was conceived. What if you could charge in lightsabers ignited and guns blazing into Korriban? Especially Post Events of the Leviathan (PEL)! CONCEPT QUESTIONS: What if there was a Darkside & Lightside routes of assault to Korriban Temple?

KotOR Modding Update: August 2022

While I have always logged into Deadly Stream and Nexus Mods regularly to check if my mods receive any new comment or bug report, July-August 2022 marks my busiest period in working on KotOR mods since developing and releasing my KotOR 2 same-gender romance mods in 2016-2017. (Having lots of free time certainly helps) Throughout the past couple of weeks, the things I have done in modding KotOR include: Updating my Kreia reskin mod by converting the files from TGA to TPC.
