Thank you so much! Yeah, none of this was possible before the KPM ecosystem. The future of KOTOR modding his here! (Frankly, I've been really down lately, so I really appreciate your support)

A little confused, KPM has it's own GameAPI that contains most of the functions in the exes. Why not use that?

Here is the mod collection I've made using all of my new mods and all of my favorite vanilla+ graphics mods. Let me know if anyone has any suggestions! https://www.nexusmods.com/games/kotor/collections/yhvu7p

Difficult to put into words how cool and ambitious your mods are, with the use of KPM and your Kotor Address Library it truly is the golden age of modding. Thanks for sharing your work with everyone!

Hello modders! I have been working really hard to get to this point, and I've finally released my Saga Edition Series of mods... over on Nexus mods. They will be coming here very soon, I promise, but frankly I've already spent almost five hours on just releasing mods, so I'm gonna go do something else for a bit! lmfao Let me know if you have any issues. I'm hoping this goes smoothly, I've done a massive amount of testing, but... who knows? lol The main reason for this post, besides making people aware of the existence of the mods, is because I also had ChatGPT keep track of our reverse-engineering and testing work, and maintain it as an Engine Modding Guide. It is entirely maintained by ChatGPT, and thus probably includes a lot of rambly nonsense, a lot of very obvious "grass is green" kind of crap... but I'm hoping it provides some insight into how we were able to find the right hooks to work with to make all of this possible. Cause I sure as hell don't have the patience to keep track of all of that myself. lmfao Just to have it all in one place, I've also attacked the API guides to my new Crash Logger and SagaLib Address Library.

When overlaying one mesh onto another, I try to align the positions of the limbs as closely as possible. It’s easier to navigate in Wireframe mode. Here’s another detail I recently learned: these "hookpoints" determine how items are positioned in one's hands.

I've adjusted the ankle joint and moved the model so it remains on the origin point but I'm also considering rotating the shin joint to give the feet a bit of a V-shape during idle like the KOTOR model. For the arms, how much straighter does it need to be?

It is advisable to rotate the ankle joint and straighten the arms at the elbows.

I didn't bind the skeleton yet in the first two images. More like these? I haven't lopped off the hands yet in the images.

Bones are needed to deform the geometry of an imported model. Your geometry has remained in its original position. It is easier for you to export the model from TOR. with the bones and weights already included. The bones will allow you to deform the mesh in Blender, and the vertex groups (with their associated weights) can be renamed to match the vertex groups used in KOTOR. If importing bones with vertex groups is not possible: 1. Create a skeleton and bind it to the mesh. 2. Deform the mesh using this skeleton so that the arms and legs are in the same positions as those of the KOTOR model. 3. Rename the weighted vertex groups so that they match the vertex groups of the KOTOR model. 4. Apply (save) the mesh modifier and delete the skeleton. 5. Rename the UV map of the imported model to "UVMap." 6. Join the objects using Ctrl + J. Select the mesh of the imported model first, then the mesh of the KOTOR model, and press Ctrl + J. 7. Enter Edit Mode and delete the KOTOR model mesh. 8. Export the model. It’s better to use the original hands. Getting the weight settings right is incredibly difficult. If I happen to work on something like this in the near future, I’ll post step-by-step screenshots.

I don't really enjoy the second game particularly much, but if you ever work on a K1 version of the patch, I would love to help test it out thorougly.
