Why the beta community and modding community share a mutual interest.

What do you think of when you hear the term "beta community"? If you think of a bunch of geeks who are a small part of the gaming community that have interest in the collection and preservation of prototypes by almost any means necessary and the documentation of alpha and beta content then you would be correct. In this blog I will try to explain why the beta community needs the modding community and why the modding community needs the beta community. While the beta community will by any means

Heading Out

It's been far too much of a wait for this.   Running log #009... We'd just stolen a Lethisk armed freighter without even looking at what we stole. This armed freighter, funnily enough, belonged to the Exchange. We were just leaving their centre of power after destroying a fair bit of their administration, and we were leaving in one of their ships. We might as well have been an openly declared target for them. Fighters came swooping towards us, so we chose to use them as test subjects for an e

Going Freelance

I really am sorry for missing so many opportunities in which I could've done this earlier...   Running log #008... OK, I'm going to pick up exactly where I left off last time. Right from when we took that Republic shuttle and flew off in it, working out where to go along the way. Once we'd entered deep space away from any Republic territory, we decided that it wouldn't be very easy for 12 Mandalorians to destroy the Republic. Not impossible, I'm sure, but it would be far, far easier if we ha

Malachor's Aftermath

I am truly sorry for having such gaps between my posts, especially when I tell you all it won't be long...   Running log #007... Now, before I get into what I did after I fled from Malachor, I should probably tell you about some people that are instrumental to all my actions post-Malachor. These people are the Bralor Twelve, my personal strike team. We were the best at our respective specialisations in Clan Bralor, and we were all SuperCommandos. Well, they were and I was the SuperCommando Ca

What's VP been up to Lately?

As you all might have guessed, I've been pretty busy lately what with making sandwiches for all of the hungry citizens of the world. Add to that that the time I used to reserve for modding has been slowly switched over to playing Xbox360 games, and... yeah. To give you an idea of how busy I am, I should be leaving for work right as I'm about to publish this.   It's going to be busy for me from here on out, so if I'm going to get any of this stuff done, I'd like to get a list out in the open of

Malachor

I do apologise for the excessive wait...   Running log #006... This was it. The last stand. The final culmination of several years' worth of Mandalorian victories, countered by Revan's involvement, thus causing a sudden fall in the amount of success we had, eventually driving us back here. Malachor V. We would have rather fought the Ani'la Akaan anywhere else, but the simple fact of the matter is that there was nowhere else to go. Revan's forces had us hemmed in. It was either take the fight

Not a Mando recount, just the mods I use (Sith Holocron requested)

OK, Sith Holocron, you wanted a list of every single mod I use with links, so here goes:   KotOR 1:   Lightsabre Choices Allronix Dialogue Pack 2.1 Bastila's Extra Dialogue on Tatooine Black Vulkar Base Restoration Carth's Fighting Spirit Garrum and Tar'eelok Restoration Glow Rod Restoration Improved Dark Jedi Mandalorian Ultimate Mod New BIK Movies Revan's Flowing Cape and Belt Fix 1.1 Remove restriction to Force Powers by armors Shari

The Second Battle of Onderon

I apologise for leaving such a huge gap between posts, but anyway...   Running log #005: I'd finally got used to the feeling of being listened to in the tactical command centre. It was routine now to go up to the bridge of the flagship, report in, and start arguing with people. It was actually fun now. Especially since full command of the Republic fleet was transferred over to a proper Jedi. And this guy wasn't what you would expect of a wartime Jedi Knight. When we heard he was in charge of

Advanced Tactics

It's been a while, hasn't it? I'm back, and with a proper working log recorder. Now to business.   Running log #004: I've been through quite a few battles now, earned myself a reputation as a tactician, and where does this get me? Back in training. You could argue that it's elite training, but I'm still back in the training facilities. I had enough of it before. What's worse it that I wasn't even allowed to leave and fight a few battles on my days off. I was trapped in the same place I starte

Mandalorian Tactics and Strategies

Now, in the previous log I said I would explain the strategies I used and what it was like in Advanced Tactical Training in another log. If I can get this damned machine to play back custom logs, it'll be this one. WHAT THE-? As soon as I actually manage to access the damned custom log folder, the stupid thing crashes! OK, I'll get in through the back door. NO DISK IN DRIVE ERROR? OF COURSE THERE'S NO BLOODY DISK IN IT, THE LOG IS SAVED DIRECTLY ONTO THE BLOODY MACHINE! Oh, for the love of...

The Battle of Dagary Minor

Sorry it's been a while, my hard drive nearly died, but anyway...     Running log #003:   You could feel the tension in the air from the hangar. The anticipation of blasting down on the Republic, taking yet another planet without a challenge. It almost felt routine now to get into a Basilisk, be told to deploy, and start crushing resistance.   Well, it was probably like that. I wouldn't know. Because while the front liners were doing that, I was sat in a small command chamber not debating

My First Real Battle

Running log #002:   Us Mandalorians hadn't been in a real fight with the Republic recently. In fact, they virtually gave us most of the Outer Rim. So it wasn't entirely expected when we came for Taris. Of course, we'd had word of the attacks on the Jedi Enclave there, and that gave us a bit of a morale boost, knowing that the "Force" wouldn't be there to help our enemies. And, due to the fact that the Republic Fleet was too busy getting shot elsewhere, there wasn't quite so much resistance as

My First Blog Post (obviously)

I got extremely bored, so I decided to write some in-universe stuff about me during the Mandalorian Wars (I am Mandalore, aren't I?)     Running log #001:   I'm starting my logs with an account of my training and first missions in the War, before Revan came into things.   The training was hard, but I expect you know that if you're reading this. What you don't know is exactly how hard it was for me personally. Because I always had to be the best at everything. Well, almost everything. Eve

What's VP been up to lately?

Hello. I've been wanting to post a blog for awhile, but I realized I never had anything important to post on here usually.   Then I realized I'd never have anything too important to post on here ever, so now I'm just going to ramble.   I'll just go on about the various projects that I am currently/have been working on.     Peragus Tweak -   With TSLRCM 1.7 released, the restoration section of it is kind of outdated. Fortunately, I'm still able to implement the main purpose of the mod, w

Dog Food

First off I would like to say that this is just a rambling, feel free to stop reading here if you wish.   After taking the dogs for their walk so they could... well have a crap, I returned home where I set upon preparing their grub.   I got the bag of dry biscuits and hurled a cup full in each of their bowls and then I took two tins of meat for them. I looked at the labels, apparently the food they were about to eat was 'Tender Roast Duck with Peas, Carrots and Rice' now to me this sounded r

There Is No Great Revelation

Several weeks ago I obtained a copy of Sony Vegas 10.   Here is one of the results. Enjoy!     In other news, I am continuing to work on the GenoHaradan Revisioning Mod. Progress is being made on items unique to the GenoHaradan, and voice acting opportunities are appearing. I'm still not quite ready to open up team positions, but that will probably change very soon.   Thanks for your continued support.   LOH

Return of Hunger

Hello and greetings once more. As Kreia so famously said, it has been some time. I can't say I'm thrilled that all the previous blog entries are lost, but from what I understand of the circumstances we're lucky to have this site back and that is all that matters.   So where to begin?   For starters, some are wondering about the progress of the GenoHaradan Revisioning Mod. I'd like to let everyone know first off that progress has not ceased, but rather has made a leap forward. There had been
