I got a lot of problems with you people. Now you're gonna hear about it. I'm trying something new again, though I've been thinking of doing it for a while. I noticed the site update changed the way it manages updates to mods. I think the new way makes more sense than the old way, but it does mean it's easier for updates to go unnoticed to anyone who isn't specifically following the mod page for that. So I figured I'd do a sort of mod roundup every so often to shout into the void about what I've been up to. Updates The primary point of this format - new updates to old mods that you might've missed. Supermodel Fix for K2 - Added some fixes for dual saber animations. And apparently I broke TSLRCM's lean animations at some point, so I fixed those too. Slave Bastila - I spent a good part of the summer putting out fires for this mod. Then after I thought it was done, there was some more weird stuff that wasn't even my fault. Nobody's reported anything for a couple months so I think it's safe now. Handmaiden Sisters - This was the first mod I submitted to Deadly Stream, though it wasn't the first mod I made, not by far. So it didn't have much sentimental value and I neglected it. It had been out of date for a while. I ended up redoing it from scratch for the update. Korriban: Back in Black - By request, there are new options for Uthar and Yuthura. And also a fix for a weird bug with a guy on Manaan. New Mods Some fine additions to your collection. Vision Enhancement - Makes the player stop going to bed wearing armor and teleporting to the Ebon Hawk in their sleep. Fashion Line I: Cloaked Jedi Robes for K1 - Ports those K2 robes with cloaks to K1. Possibly the #1 request since Deadly Stream started accepting ported mods, if we aren't counting "hey why don't you port the entire game" as one mod. Force Knock - Adds a Force power to replace the need for the Security Use skill. Modding Tools & Resources Stuff of no interest to non-modders but of potential non-zero interest to modders. Cloaked Jedi Robes & Supermodel Port for K1 - Mod resource version of what makes the Cloaked Robes and Slave Bastila work. Odyssey++ - User-defined languages for Notepad++. Suggests stuff as you type. Makes scripting for KOTOR easier. Something Completely Different In this section I'll post something recent that I didn't make but I think is cool and deserving of attention. This time, without a doubt, it's the CSLU Toolkit revival by @Jenko. The CSLU Toolkit is what KOTOR mods have always used to generate lip files because that's what was available back in 2005 when JdNoa made her LipSynchEditor. It was a convenient, free resource... at the time. Recently, it's been impossible to get a hold of the software. The CSLU server has been offline for over a year, meaning nobody could install the Toolkit. Even if they had the installer, it wouldn't work without the server available to confirm the license. I remember problem-solving this when the server first went offline. I even sent over my registry files, hoping we could get a new installation to recognize my license - just so we'd have the option of transferring a totally legitimate installation to a new machine when the time came. But nothing worked. It was oddly secure for freeware. Ultimately, it took him single-handedly pestering the staff at Oregon Health & Science University, getting his emails sent down a chain of several people in the hopes that it would finally reach somebody who actually worked on the thing. And it did. It was a Festivus miracle.

View File [K1] PC Replacement Voices (Kira, DS Jaesa, LS Jaesa) PC Replacement Voices (Kira, DS Jaesa, LS Jaesa) AUTHOR: Sith Holocron ORIGINAL RELEASE: 25 DEC 2018 GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1. [This mod will not work in Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2. See Description for more details.] RECOMMENDED ADDITIONAL MODS: "TOR Ports: Kira Carsen  Female Player Head for K1", "TOR Ports: Jaesa Willsaam Female Player Head for K1" - both by @DarthParametric Description: ------------------ This mod's creation was in response to a request by @Untold Prophecy so give him a shout on his request thread if you liked his idea. A few notes: Not all of the lines will play as that's how the game is set up. However, I've filled out as many of the options that I showed in the female PC voice lines document that I could. This also enables you - the player - to go through the lines and decide which is the best one to use. Options, people! Who doesn't like options? Some more notes: There are no Jaesa or Kira lines for some of the mine lines that I could find so I included blank files so you won't hear the original PC character's voice. I didn't replace the injury sounds either as it won't make a noticeable difference. (One scream is much like another, IMHO.) There were also a few where all three options use the same lines but as only one of those three play in game, you won't notice a difference. (It was easier copying one line to all three options than figuring out which one plays in game - which I can't do because my computer isn't working.) Hopefully, I've found suitable lines for the PC various scenarios. You'll have to let me know in the review section below. (Details are better than just leaving stars, you see.) Feel free to link videos of the lines in use if your review. I would've done it myself but my computer has not been brought to repair shop yet. This mod is only for Knights of the Old Republic 1. Knights of the Old Republic 2 - although it has the voice files for the male and female PC - that game doesn't have them activated, rendering the Exile mute. In order to use this mod in Knights of the Old Republic 2, you must install JC's Player Soundset Restoration for K2 in KotOR2 before this mod. That being said: As this mod is strictly designed for KotOR1 and not for KotOR2, any sounds that do not end of playing what you expected should not be reported to me. Installation: ----------------- There are three folders in the package: one for Kira Carsen, one for light side Jaesa Willsaam, and one for dark side Jaesa Willsaam. Choose one (and only one) of these soundsets and you can't use multiple soundsets for one character. Once you've made your choice, follow these instructions. 1) Move the original KotOR1 files that share the file names in this mod to a place you can find them. (I recommend a folder on your desktop.) Those files will be located in the "Streamsounds" folder where you have KotOR1 installed. 2) Extract the files from the 7z folder. Grab the new files from that extracted folder and put them in Streamsounds folder. Note: If you're using the mod on Steam, this quote may prove helpful. Uninstall: -------------- Remove the aforementioned contents from your Override folder.

I own none of the materials, and I'm not making any money out of this mod. It is to be distributed as-is without alteration, unless notified in writing of permission granted by me. This mod is not to be distributed for profit, either. I hereby state that I specifically do NOT wish this mod to be uploaded to Steam Workshop.

You are absolutely right about that. The colours were still a bit off and Bioware's lighting on Taris is terrible^^ So I continued iterating over the lightmap for my 2d buildings and also the lightmaps for the 3d buildings to get everything to blend together. Once I was happy with that, I enabled all the clouds in TG and rendered the skybox again. That changed the lighting of the skybox so there was a mismatch once again. That meant tweaking the skybox lighting to get it closer to where it was before, followed by tweaking the lightmaps again. And finally, I rerendered the 2d buildings with more contrast and a better cubemap. Here's the result of all that: Much better if you ask me. What's left now is to rerender the cubemap (used both when rendering the backdrop buildings and ingame for reflections) at a higher resolution and then maybe do some additional tweaking. More importantly, I still need to do the same thing (changing all the lightmaps) for the Upper City South. But I'm getting there I also noticed that I had forgotten about one skybox when going through all the models and fixing them: Davik's Estate. That was changed and Davik has a nice view from his hangar now. I decided not to add additional backdrop buildings here since I figured that his estate was probably expensive and should thus stand a little more separated from the rest of the buildings.

The only things I did in this update were modifying some of the dialogue of the Rebuilt Jedi Enclave sequence since those dialogue files were updated by version 2.4 of Extended Enclave. As I said, I didn't touch Kreia's endgame dialogue at all in this update, so I believe your issue with Kreia's endgame was most likely caused by some other mods you're using. Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't notice that. I upload my patch again to remove the 904.kreia.dlg from this patch.

I just made a cube map with a different color on each side, then applied it to a cube and looked at how each face changed relative to the viewing angle. That picture looks consistent with my testing. I think you've got it flipped around in your head. Your building and the cube map have opposite texture wrapping. If it helps, imagine the cube map is being wrapped onto the skybox rather than the building. The map is then drawn on each part of the building that's facing that part of the skybox. If you mapped the cube map onto a cube, then you would indeed get two faces swapped, similar to how you get a left/right flip with a reflection in a mirror.

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. Merry Christmas!

Should be simple enough to test, let's see... In descending order: bottom / top / left / right / front / back With directions relative to a player facing north. At least for what I tested.

Judging by the escape scene pre-rendered vid, there's one rectangular looking building in the foreground: But otherwise that looks about right.

You can rename the original script and then execute it like so: void main() { ExecuteScript("original_script_give_it_a_new_name", OBJECT_SELF, -1); // Then add all your stuff here whatever it is } Then save your script with the original name.

Just so people know . . . I have already given him the sound files already -specifically, last Saturday night. I wished you all know to know so I don't appear to be a Grinch during the holiday season. If anyone wishes to assist him in making this compatible for TSL, you should contact him.

For the textures, you need to replace all the files in the TexturePacks folder. Though I believe you will still get some hangups with the GUI on account of name changes. All I can suggest is you do that first, then eyeball what is still wrong and continue from there. A module includes the following files: all the contents of the .rim and _s.rim files (these can be extracted with ERFEdit) the module's layout (.lyt) file (located in layouts.bif) the module's visibility (.vis) file (located in lightmaps.bif) the map (located in swpc_tex_gui.erf) the loadscreen (also located in the _gui.erf) the area models (.mdl, .mdx, & .wok, located in models.bif) the lightmaps (located in lightmaps.bif) If you are porting the whole texture archive, that should take care of the map and loadscreen already. The models must be converted because the games use slightly different formats. My usual procedure for this is to extract everything, convert the binary MDL/MDX to ASCII, then load the ASCII files and convert those back to binary. This isn't foolproof, though, as you can see here . I've put my area porting endeavors on hold until the next update to MDLEdit (plus I've got other projects anyway). Everything else can be archived in a new .mod with ERFEdit and then placed in the modules folder.You can put modelsand textures in there too, but they are often used for more than one area, so it's not as practical. Like I said in the first post, ultimately I would like to explore a way to create new archives for the games rather than shunting everything into Override. We've had some progress, but there's still more work to be done.
