Full Description: The mysterious arrival of the Republic hammerhead warship is one of the most ambitious and engaging cutscenes in TSL. Unfortunately, ambitious cutscenes can be a harbinger for more than just a man with severe psoriasis -- players may experience issues ranging from cutscenes stuttering and looping, loading screens before and after loading a new module mid-cutscene, breaking animations, to game windows minimizing and skipping the cutscene entirely, permanent black screen, and even game crashes. Thus this mod's mission was twofold: 1) Provide a range of general improvements and fixes that everyone will benefit from regardless of cutscene performance, as well as 2) Create a more stable version of the cutscene that generally performs well on any device. I am happy to report that results have been exciting: 1) General improvements - Atton now always faces the correct direction when speaking to you - Kreia actually shows up meditating in the morgue when you hear her speak, rather than standing right behind Atton - Kreia no longer visibly stands behind Atton in certain earlier shots of him speaking - The Peragus mining facility asteroid is no longer right outside the Harbinger window before it actually enters the asteroid field 2) Performance improvements All in-game portions of the cutscene are now rendered in the same module -- your game will no longer be trying to load an entirely new module twice over, all while trying to play pre-rendered cutscenes. This means that your game's mid-cutscene workload has been drastically reduced, and so issues known to occur specifically with the Harbinger Arrival cutscene are much less frequent. I have also scripted in "guardrails" for many minor glitches that can occur mid-cutscene. Note that this is not a 100% guarantee players who were having issues before never will again; TSL is nearly old enough to be legally considered an adult in the US, and its pre-rendered scenes are just not optimized for many modern machines. However, this mod was tested on a non-gaming laptop now a few years old, with the game running from an external hard disk drive, on a modern operating system, in full-screen mode, with several different visual mods installed. This meant that attempting to run the original Harbinger cutscene 10 times translated to the cutscene failing to play without major issue 10 times. After switching to the new version, any types of issues, major or minor, were encountered less than 1 out of 10 times. Hopefully, even a potato from your local grocery store can now successfully play the Harbinger Arrival cutscene, so long as it can generally play most TSL cutscenes successfully. Harbinger Enhancement_compressed.mp4 For reference when it comes to performance, this footage was recorded on an old laptop, with the game running on a modern operating system from a hard disk drive, with multiple other programs running in the background, and the following mods installed that can be seen in the video: - Ultimate Peragus Models Repair 1.2 (responsible for restoring proper lighting to the Harbinger, showing the administration level proper behind Atton, and other model fixes) - Harbinger Bridge Repairs (responsible for fixing several geometry errors, two visible during cutscene) - KotOR 2 Remastered (AI Upscaled) Cutscenes 1.0.0 by Naelavok (responsible for the upscaled pre-rendered scenes) - TSL Backdrop Improvements by Kexikus (responsible for the much-improved skybox seen from both the catwalk and the Harbinger bridge) - Improved Peragus Asteroid Fields 1.2 by Vasilii Zaytsev (responsible for the static 3d asteroids surrounding Peragus II) - Peragus Large Monitor Adjustment by Sith Holocron (responsible for that excellent HD computer monitor before Atton) - Kotor 2 Unlimited Worlds Texture Mod (responsible for the nicer-looking textures throughout the level, from the catwalk to the asteroids) - Ultimate Character Overhaul REDUX (responsible for the HD character textures) TLDR: This mod 1) stabilizes the Harbinger cutscene so that your game is much less likely to experience issues 2) places Kreia in her usual meditation spot in the morgue for her dialogue, and 3) fixes a number of minor issues with the cutscene. Installation: Download and run the installer, or else follow manual installation instructions. For Steam installations of TSLRCM, direct the installer to "Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\208580\485537937", and not the main game folder with the executable. 7z files can be extracted with Archive Utility on macOS, or with programs like PeaZip for windows and Linux. The installer is a .exe file, which can be run natively on Windows, or with programs like Wine for macOS and Linux. For an existing game, use a save file before going to the asteroid exterior. Save files made any later will not be affected. Uninstallation: Take 104per.mod out of the provided backup folder and place it in your modules folder at the location you installed to, and select replace when prompted. Take a_con_atton_end.ncs out of the provided backup folder and place it in your override folder at the location you installed to, and select replace when prompted. You can safely delete 104per.lyt and 104per.vis from your override folder. The files 104pera.mdl/.mdx/.wok come from Ultimate Peragus Models Repair, you can keep or delete these at your discretion. Additional Tips For Improving Game Performance: If you are having trouble running pre-rendered scenes in general, you can try the following: -- Go into your graphics settings, and under advanced options, disable frame buffering. If that does not work, try lowering or disabling all options. If the pre-rendered cutscene plays afterwards, you can up your graphics settings afterwards for normal gameplay. -- Try running the game in windowed mode, rather than fullscreen. Close your game and open "swkotor2.ini", found in the same folder as your main game executable (for a Steam game, that's "Steam\steamapps\common\Knights of the Old Republic II"). Under both "Display Options" and "Graphics Options", change "FullScreen=1" to "FullScreen=0". Restart your game. -- Uninstall/disable any non-essential mods that may relate to the cutscene or the area it takes place in. Peragus in particular also suffers from memory overflow if you play the game too long in one sitting. This can cause dialogue to start skipping, or for issues with game cutscenes. This can usually be avoided by: -- Quitting and restarting the game once in a while: doing it once before heading out to the asteroid surface, and again right before attempting to leave the Harbinger engine deck (the third and final level with the spooky lights) is usually enough to avoid problems. -- Avoiding skipping dialogue yourself, which can sometimes lead to memory overflow. If you do skip a lot of dialogue, quitting and restarting the game will fix the issue. Compatibility: Users should expect full compatibility with any other mods, so long as they make no modifications to the scripting or dialogue of the Harbinger's Arrival cutscene. For instance, if you are installing N-DReW's Mini Mod Collection for TSL, be sure not to add the included 104atton.dlg or 104kreia.dlg to your override, or remove it if you already have, as that would create a major incompatibility. This mod is for players using TSLRCM version 1.8.3 or higher. You may view this mod's changes.ini inside the "tslpatchdata" folder for a complete list of every altered module element. Feel free to check out "KotOR 2 Remastered (AI Upscaled) Cutscenes" by Naelavok for higher-resolution cutscenes, if you have not already. There are some other great mods out there that improve the visual quality of the cutscene. "Peragus Large Monitor Adjustment" by Sith Holocron, "KotOR 2 Unlimited World Texture Mod" by facemeltingsolo, "TSL Backdrop Improvements by Kexikus", and "Ultimate Peragus Models Repair" by yours truly are all compatible with this mod. "A Darker Peragus REDUX" by Malkior and "... A Darker Peragus" by Canderis are also compatible.

=KotOR 1 Twi'lek Female NPC Diversity= A KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC MODIFICATION AUTHOR: Leilukin FILE NAME: K1 Twi'lek Female NPC Diversity.zip LATEST VERSION: 1.0 CONTACT: E-mail to leilukin@outlook.com, or message to Leilukin on Deadly Stream 1. DESCRIPTION: In vanilla KotOR 1, Twi'lek NPCs have very limited variety of designs. This mod aim to diversify the appearances of Twi'lek female NPCs, by giving the named Twi'lek female NPCs different looks instead of the generic NPC looks to set them apart. The Twi'lek female NPCs affected by this mod include: Lena, messager of Mission's personal quest Malare, messager of Bastila's personal quest Zoriis Bafka, swoop racer on Tatooine Casandra Mateil, swoop racer on Manaan Zeena on Manaan The unique appearances of these NPCs are created by utilizing the Twi'lek textures from K1 Enhancement Pack, which has been released as a modder's resource. In order for this mod to take effect, you must load a save before meeting Lena and Malare, and before visiting the Tatooine Swoop Registration and Manaan Ahto East for the first time. I do not change the appearances of Lyn Sekla and Janice Nall from Taris, because ebmar has created amazing mods that overhaul their appearances, which I recommend: Lyn Sekla "Legends" Janice Nall "Legends" and the Incomplete Droids 2. INSTALLATION: Extract the K1 Twi'lek Female NPC Diversity.zip archive you downloaded to anywhere you like, as long as it is not within the KotOR directory. Run Install.exe, point the installer to your KotOR directory, where swkotor.exe is located, and let the installer do its job. I also provide upscaled versions of the Twi'lek textures as an optional installation. After installing the main part of this mod, go to the "Optional - Upscaled Textures" folder, drop the files into the Override folder in your directory and overwrite files when prompted. If you use the NPC Replacement component of DarthParametric's K1 Thigh-High Boots For Female Twi'lek Body, I have also provided an optional installation to make Lena and Malare's boots match the other female Twi'lek boot models edited by DP for visual consistency. After installing the main part of my mod, go to the "Optional - DP's Twilek Thigh-High Boots" folder, drop the files into the Override folder in your directory and overwrite files when prompted. NOTE: When you install this mod, a new folder named "backup" may be created by the installer in the same folder as the installer. Do not delete the folder or the file within the folder if you are planning on uninstalling this mod. 3. UNINSTALLATION: If no backup folder was created when you installed this mod, go to the Override folder in your KotOR directory, and delete the following files: appearance.2da heads.2da g_lena.utc g_malare.utc man26_casandra.utc man27_zeena.utc tat17_04zorii_01.utc If a backup folder was created when you installed this mod, go to the backup folder, cut and paste any files from the folder and paste the file in the Override folder in your KotOR directory, then delete the rest of the files listed above that did not have a backup copy. Regardless if a backup folder was created when you installed this mod, if you want to uninstall this mod completely, delete the files with the "llk" prefix that are used by this mod from the Override folder in your KotOR directory. See READ ME.txt for the list of these files to be deleted. 4. KNOWN ISSUES: None currently known. If you find any bugs or problems, please let me know. 5. MOD COMPATIBILITY: This mod is not compatible with any other mods that modify or change the heads of Lena, Malare, Zoriis Bafka, Casandra Mateil, or Zeena. This mod does not replace any vanilla Twi'lek textures and models, so this mod is compatible with mods that retexture or remodel vanilla Twi'leks. This mod is compatible with KotOR 1 Community Patch (K1CP). This mod is compatible with KotOR 1 Restoration (K1R). 6. PERMISSION: You may use assets from this mod as part of your mod, however, both SpaceAlex and I should be credited accordingly, with SpaceAlex being credited as the original creator of the textures as part of the K1 Enhancement Pack modder's resource. 7. CREDITS: SpaceAlex for the K1 Enhancement Pack modder's resource DarthParametric for the K1 Thigh-High Boots For Female Twi'lek Body modder's resource Cortisol for Holocron Toolset bead-v for MDLedit ndix UR for tga2tpc and tpcview Stoffe for TSLPatcher; Fair Strides for the updated version THIS MODIFICATION IS NOT SUPPORTED BY BIOWARE/OBSIDIAN ENTERTAINMENT OR LUCASARTS OR ANY LICENSERS/SPONSORS OF THE MENTIONED COMPANIES.

Individual preferences and stuff that annoys me that I've not seen tackled anywhere else, or at least without being scattered around in different mods or not having been done quite how I would myself. Compatible with K1CP. Several changes are included in the PLUS install of Weapons & Armor Uncut. Navardan Regenerator becomes a Level 2 implant because it costs more than another implant that does the exact same thing. Even if not for the cost, it's standing existence is reduntant. Bothan Sensory Visor switches price with Bothan Perception Visor. They're clearly mispriced. Security Decryption Interface is now appropriately priced. Two Carbonite Projectors were added to Mika Dorin's inventory. A matter of availability. Fixed descriptions of droid special weapons. Fixed/altered icon of several crystals. Brejik's Arm Band renamed to Brejik's Armband. Sherruk's red saber drop is a green one instead. Baragwin Ion-X Weapon now uses the unused w_IonRfl04.tpc texture. No longer a duplicate. NPC items no longer drop (Boohoo). All swords inside Ajunta Pall's sarcophagus have been revised according to description. Ajunta Pall's Blade renamed to Ajunta Pall's Sword. It shares it's texture with the Notched Steel Sword and the old texture is now used by Echani Ritual Brand. The ancient Vibrosword no longer floats besides the hands when wielded. The spirit of Ajunta Pall is deadlier if you walk the Light Side. Fixed plasma mines to deal Fire damage (Previously dealt Energy damage). A Wookiee Warblade can be found on the village of Rwookrrorro. If you have any kind of weapon model overhaul installed, please choose the appropriate option during patching. This mod does not fix the many pricing inconsistencies present on almost all item categories nor does it adress the duplicate (even triplicate) instances of reused textures on weapons. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ KTool..........................................................Fred Tetra TSLPatcher.....................................................stoffe & Fair Strides ERFEdit........................................................stoffe & Fair Strides K-GFF..........................................................TK102
