Hello, friend!! I am human!! I love this!! Its a way of life!! haha!!!

Just a little update. Im working through the Visual Basic Winforms, they appear to be heavily fragmented, or backwards compiled. not in the 2010 era of nested code / vb designer files / resx. so im building a script rapidly edit the files for me. This a utility im writing in python to speed up the process. The first build works okay, a few glitches in the win forms, but i was able to make early fixes to them, adding .resx files where they can be added. ALOT of work is going to be put in this toolkit. But the master will always be Mr. Fred Tetra. No one knows if he is even alive anymore, but whoever he is, and whereever he came from, that brain, deserves the highest recognition in the KoTOR Universe. Forever. In addition to this tool, that is built on specifically Python 3.13, after a couple of iterations, and hella debugging, trial and error, it now seems to be working flawlessly with repairing the Designer files and fixing the decomp mangling. for example, python script which ive built, while running visual studio (very important!) gives us outputs like this. ========================================================================================== [CMD] C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python313\python.exe "P:\GAME TOOLS\Modding\KoTOR Tool\Source\VbRepair\kt_stage1.py" --code "P:/GAME TOOLS/Modding/KoTOR Tool/Source/kotor_tool/frmBasicHelp.vb" --designer "P:\GAME TOOLS\Modding\KoTOR Tool\Source\kotor_tool\frmBasicHelp.Designer.vb" --apply KOTOR Tool Designer Repair - Stage 1 ==================================================================================================== Mode : APPLY Code file : P:\GAME TOOLS\Modding\KoTOR Tool\Source\kotor_tool\frmBasicHelp.vb Designer file : P:\GAME TOOLS\Modding\KoTOR Tool\Source\kotor_tool\frmBasicHelp.Designer.vb Summary ------- Controls found : 3 Designer declarations added : 3 Event bindings found : 0 Event bindings inserted : 0 Property wrappers removed : 3 Backing fields removed : 3 Code changed : True Designer changed : True File Size / Line Count ---------------------- Code lines : 83 -> 20 (-63) Designer lines : 69 -> 68 (-1) Code bytes : 2799 -> 467 (-2332) Designer bytes : 5666 -> 5625 (-41) Controls Discovered ------------------- - Button1 As Global.System.Windows.Forms.Button | property lines 22-34 - TextBox1 As Global.System.Windows.Forms.TextBox | property lines 39-51 - Label1 As Global.System.Windows.Forms.Label | property lines 56-68 Property Wrappers Removed ------------------------- - Button1: lines 22-34, removed with header from line 18 - TextBox1: lines 39-51, removed with header from line 35 - Label1: lines 56-68, removed with header from line 52 Backing Fields Removed ---------------------- - _Label1 As Label: lines 20-21, removed with header from line 18 - _Button1 As Button: lines 24-25, removed with header from line 22 - _TextBox1 As TextBox: lines 28-29, removed with header from line 26 Orphaned AccessedThroughProperty Attributes Removed --------------------------------------------------- None Designer Declarations Inserted ------------------------------ - Friend WithEvents Button1 As Global.System.Windows.Forms.Button - Friend WithEvents TextBox1 As Global.System.Windows.Forms.TextBox - Friend WithEvents Label1 As Global.System.Windows.Forms.Label Designer Declarations Already Present / Skipped ----------------------------------------------- None Event Bindings Discovered ------------------------- None Event Bindings Inserted ----------------------- None Event Bindings Already Present / Skipped ---------------------------------------- None Designer Alias Declarations Removed ----------------------------------- - Line 25: removed alias 'button' for Me.Button1 - Line 31: removed alias 'textBox' for Me.TextBox1 - Line 37: removed alias 'textBox2' for Me.TextBox1 - Line 43: removed alias 'label' for Me.Label1 Designer Alias Property Rewrites -------------------------------- - button. -> Me.Button1. : 1 replacements - textBox. -> Me.TextBox1. : 1 replacements - textBox2. -> Me.TextBox1. : 1 replacements - label. -> Me.Label1. : 1 replacements Malformed Designer Output Repairs --------------------------------- None Local Declaration Renames ------------------------- None InitializeComponent Value Local Inlines --------------------------------------- - Line 25: removed temporary declaration 'localPoint' and cached New Global.System.Drawing.Point(171, 344) - Line 26: inlined 'localPoint' into assignment - Line 30: removed temporary reassignment 'localPoint' and cached New Global.System.Drawing.Point(8, 40) - Line 31: inlined 'localPoint' into assignment - Line 35: removed temporary declaration 'localSize' and cached New Global.System.Drawing.Size(400, 296) - Line 36: inlined 'localSize' into assignment - Line 40: removed temporary reassignment 'localPoint' and cached New Global.System.Drawing.Point(158, 😎 - Line 41: inlined 'localPoint' into assignment - Line 46: removed temporary reassignment 'localSize' and cached New Global.System.Drawing.Size(5, 13) - Line 47: inlined 'localSize' into assignment - Line 48: removed temporary reassignment 'localSize' and cached New Global.System.Drawing.Size(416, 381) - Line 49: inlined 'localSize' into assignment VB Safety Fixes --------------- - Renamed local 'size' declarations to 'localSize': 1 - Renamed local 'point' declarations to 'localPoint': 1 - Renamed local 'resourceManager' declarations to 'resources': 1 - Removed InitializeComponent temporary Size/Point value lines: 6 - Inlined InitializeComponent temporary Size/Point value usages: 6 - Designer declarations inserted at line 54: 3 Warnings -------- None Apply complete.

Exit code: 0 and basically what this does, is it takes the mangled visual designer code, for example, lets take frmBWMEditor.vb Is exactly what you will get if you try to decomp and just load it up in visual studio. Good for debugging and runtime, its like Jabba the Hutt shat on you for designer updates. so we grab our python tool We select our frmBWMEditor.vb file (it populates the designer one with the force) If you want to check with non-destructive, we do a DRY RUN to the Dagoba System, Various output information given, we love data!! Controls auto remove the property wrapper. then it will move the relevent code to the designer etc. Rebindings etc as you can see this is the method of how we fix the galaxy. one scottish obikenobi at a time. 'hellothere' we get a pleasant warning before we untangle the mess. GOD I LOVE PYTHON. Dont forget to click YES TO ALL. Sometimes, it might forget an import or two, if it does, just add it manually. cant be lazy like a huttese prince at everything. we then get this form returned back to us. now i did just have to make a fix as i was writing this, so we can do this.

Planning on putting this up on Wookieepedia?

Hi everyone, I wanted to share a pretty major milestone with the KOTOR community. Over the last 24 hours, I have successfully reverse engineered and reconstructed the original KOTOR Tool into a working Visual Studio 2010 project, with source code files restored, curated, repaired, and brought back into a buildable structure. I worked through the decompiled output manually, repairing broken VB.NET syntax, restoring missing line continuations, correcting project references, fixing startup and application path issues, and rebuilding the project into something that can now run inside Visual Studio again. Source Files I also used ChatGPT heavily throughout the process as a coding assistant, helping identify broken patterns, repair old VB.NET structures, and accelerate the reconstruction process. The actual curation, testing, correction, and project decisions were done manually by me. This was done in roughly a 24-hour period. For anyone who remembers how important KOTOR Tool was to the original modding scene, this feels like a serious preservation milestone. The goal here is not to take anything away from the original creator or the work that came before. Quite the opposite: this is about preserving an important part of KOTOR modding history and making sure the tool can still be studied, repaired, and potentially modernised. At this stage, I am treating this as a restoration and preservation project. I am not making any promises about releases yet, because there may be legal, licensing, and attribution questions that need to be handled properly and respectfully. Visual Studio 2010 Compile But technically speaking, the milestone is real: - KOTOR Tool has been reconstructed into a Visual Studio 2010-compatible source project - The source files have been manually curated and repaired - The project now runs again from source - The restoration was completed in approximately 24 hours - AI-assisted coding helped accelerate the repair process, but the reconstruction was manually supervised and tested KoTOR Tool running in visual studio 2010 debug. I know this tool means a lot to many people here, so I wanted to share the progress with the community and open the door to discussion. For those who used KOTOR Tool back in the day: What parts of the tool do you think are most important to preserve? What would you want to see documented, stabilised, or modernised first? LordVaderCW There is still much to do with this project. But, after a decade and a half, it is now open to the modding community. I will in due course, make the source available on GitHub. Fred built this in DotNet Visual Basic, on Net 1.1; its now running on 2.5; I intend to get it to atleast dotnet 3.5+ and also plan to make a C# version, or as close it as possible. I almost got sued by Lucasfilm, for trying to make SWKoTOR:III on ModDB. (yea im that guy!) in the days of Unreals UDK (with a little bit of ResourceHacker). I believe with the right minds in the KoTOR community, we can **FINALLY** begin efforts to PRESERVE, RESTORE, and even maybe uplift these Sacred Games, which have become Holocrons of our Heritage. May the Force be with you. LordVaderCW. #StopKillingGames Originally Posted on Reddit: You will find all updates i make to this project over on reddit. When i have a suitable application ready to release, in traditional style, if there are no Objections from the community, i will upload it here, to deadlystream.

Do you have a frontal screenshot of that face or point me to how to look at the model directly? I never noticed any of the woman Rep officer models except on holograms in 2 to my recollection.

View File K2 Appearance Restoration Pack A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic II Author: N-DReW25 1.0.0 Release Date: 26.04.2026 Installation: Please install The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod 1.8.6 FIRST, no exceptions. It is highly advised to install the KOTOR 2 Community Patch before this mod, this is optional. Click on the HoloPatcher.exe, pick your desired appearance restoration, click install, and sit back and watch the installer do its magic. Repeat this process until all, or only the appearances you want, of the appearances are installed. Description: The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod (TSLRCM) restores cut content, obviously, but what you may or may not know is that it also restores cut appearances such as Saedhe's and Hussef's cut appearances - both of whom use generic appearances in the vanilla game. But TSLRCM doesn't restore ALL of the cut appearances, my Kotor II Restored Content Plus mod did have options to restore these cut appearances but with more and more install options being added I decided to take these restored appearances and make them their standalone mod. Thus far, this mod restores: * The appearance of the Harbinger's Captain which had a unique head. * The appearance of Ralon which used Jorran's body model. * The male and female Fat Commoner variants which were mostly unused from the first game * The Smuggler variants which were used quite frequently in the first game on NPCs like Holdan. * The first Rodian variant which was bugged in the first game causing it to render as the second variant (fixed in K1CP). * The male Twi'lek variants with special Twi'lek outfits which were used quite frequently in the first game on NPCs like Larrim. * The green female Twi'lek head from the first game has been added to replace Ramana's head whilst Ramana's original head has been added as a brand new appearance for Jonra Far. Known Bugs: This mod shouldn't have any bugs but if you find any please report them to me on Deadlystream. Incompatibilities: To be added! Permissions: Do NOT claim credit for this mod and do not use assets from this mod without my permission. Thanks to: Dashus: For kickstarting the Kotor restoration efforts with TSLRP! Zbyl2 and the TSLRCM Team: For creating TSLRCM in the first place! Bioware: For such an amazing first game! Obsidian: For such an amazing sequel and for keeping the cut content in the files! Fred Tetra: For Kotor Tool! th3w1zard1: For maintaining the HoloPatcher! Everyone who downloads the mod!

Yes, that is indeed the lesser used female Republic Officer appearance. It's generic so it probably has been used elsewhere, but considering most NPCs reuse the same generic appearances that wouldn't be a problem for an NPC who's only purpose is to move the plot forward during a cutscene.

Thanks for the detailed write-up! I can't tell, is that model a man or woman and is it shared elsewhere in-game? Was assuming they would be female since Opelle sounds feminine but was curious if there was actual decision making put into the model or if I'm just reading too much into it.

I do believe the Wookieepedia article is referring to the TLK text instead of voiced audio. There was no dialogue and there was no audio but the text lines are still present in the dialog.tlk as DP has already said. That being said, I got some more text lines from the TLK you may be interested in. There is no dialogue files or audio files but the text shown here are from the dialog.tlk (do note that I'm merely guessing who says what here). If you use the StrRef search function and type in any of those numbers you will be able to find the text I quoted. As you can see, the latter half of Telos went through an entire rewrite early on where the original version had you return to Citadel Station after the Military Base, report Czerka's crimes on the surface to Grenn, go to the Ithorian place to get the location of the Polar region, get attacked by Czerka again, fight your way to the TSF Station to contact Opelle, and finally leave on yet another Shuttle to go to the Polar Region. Do note that Opelle's character IS in the 202TEL module, she's just out of sight. Using camera hacks, teleporting into the inaccessible areas, or using Holocron Toolset like I am, you can see a Republic Officer down below who we can assume is the NPC the player would've spoken to had Opelle been used in the game. Of course, this NPC might've been a placeholder for either Carth or Cede, or a placeholder until a proper cutscene area could be made (like how Tobin has his ship in 402DXN for that one cutscene) and since this content was cut really early this NPC was simply forgotten and left behind.

Thanks I was using KotOR tool and was having trouble finding a dialogue string with it, I just wanted to make sure it was real at all and not the wiki gaslighting me.

If it exists, it would likely be in the Xbox version rather than the PC version. That said, I can see two references in the PC TLK: <string id="79038" soundlength="0.000000">This is Captain Opelle of the Valiant.</string> <string id="79046" soundlength="0.000000">My schematics show the closest docks to your location at Module 083. We&apos;ll arrive shortly and handle the situation from here. Opelle out.</string>

I was looking through cut content for KotOR II and one thing that I was trying to figure out was something involving the cut Czerka takeover Citadel Station plotline. According to Wookieepedia there's a Republic captain named Opelle, captain of the Valiant (a reference to which is left in-game in regards to being Carth's ship accidentally I assume) who is supposed to be the Republic liason for it and who is supposedly voiced. I've tried looking through cut content dialogue and text myself and while I can find references to the Czerka plotline through some of Jana Lorso's unused dialogue I can't find a direct reference to Opelle let alone any voicelines for them. This is a very niche topic and searching it has given no results so I wanted to ask here if anyone with more experience knew where to look in regards to this or could share it here. Wook links for reference: https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Opelle https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Valiant_(Opelle)

You're a genius! Your level designs are so cool. I have had such enjoyment out of your Sellout asset. We made ample use of it in Edge Of Darkness, my total conversion project, and mostly in-character with your original designs. Thanks again for all your hard work with these levels!

Yeah, the ultimate price was this resort villa at a paradise beach for you and the party members to hang around with. All members would hang around a certain spot. Just doing nothing much really, just like on the Ebon Hawk. Like having a sparring match with the hand maiden on the beach, having Hanharr kick a beach ball out in the ocean... Visas and Mira sun bathing at the pool... Atton hanging in the sofa, Boa Dur working on the tv set... dumb things like that. One other crazy idea was you could play the "pod" races from the game on your console in front of the tv. It would just load one of the races via a script... If that's even possible The corridor that goes up was the "loading/ spawn point", it would then transfer you back to the Hangar Bay at the ramp of the Barracuda. Walkmeshes can't cross each other, not even when you're higher up. It blocks you off like a wall. Don't think I ever got the waves to behave properly, it was one of the many emitter tests areas I made. We just lobbed this extra level in for fun. The whole mod was setup to be just a bit of fun and giggles. Very not in line with the theme of the game. Me and GloveMaster had many wild big modding plans... Ah, the fun times of being younger and having loads of free time.

I believe it was supposed to be a reward for completing all the tiers in the combat arena, as something on top of all the tokens you get to buy the special equipment from the droid vendors. It's not very fleshed out as you've seen.
