1 pointHello, everyone. I want to make myself or ask to create a mod that fixes original lore of Star Wars. "Force Heal" and "Revitalize" should be deleted as OP and/or changed. They are cheap and selfish. Maybe it's not suitable for KOTOR 2 exactly but it's needed for all other continuations. True healing through the Light Side is not a transfer of abstract "energy," but a sharing of one's own life force. This is why it is rare, dangerous, and the ultimate antithesis of the Sith's "Force Drain Life" and "Force Drain". The more you sacrifice, the more the Force restores your will to wield it. It's giving your HP for another. The FP return isn't a transaction; it's the result of acting in harmony with the Light Side. A Dark Side user would find this power abhorrent and weakening. The Golden Rule: Light Side = Selfless. Dark Side = Selfish. Light-Sided Power Force Sacrifice – sacrificing one's own vitality (HP) to heal an ally and restoring Force connection (FP) Base Principle: Restores X Hit Points to a single friendly target. The caster loses X * Multiplier Hit Points and restores X * Wisdom * Force Points. The lost HP is of DAMAGE_TYPE_UNIVERSAL (bypasses Damage Resistance and Shields, as it is internal sacrifice). Proposed Scaling (Subject to Balance Testing): Force Sacrifice I: Restores 10 HP to target. Caster loses 15 HP. (And restores 15 FP) Force Sacrifice II: Restores 20 HP to target. Caster loses 30 HP. (And restores 30 FP) Force Sacrifice III: Restores 30 HP to target. Caster loses 45 HP. (And restores 40 FP) Alternative, Simpler Scaling: Caster loses exactly 100% + (10 * Power Level) of the healed amount. (e.g., Level I: Heal 10, Lose 11; Level II: Heal 20, Lose 22; Level III: Heal 30, Lose 33). A successful Treat Injury skill check (DC 15 + 5*Power Level) by the caster could reduce the HP cost by 15-25%. If it's difficult and I am asking too much then just "Removal of "Force Heal" and "Revitalize"" or "Removal of "Force Heal" and making "Revitalize" a DS power" Plot- wise, it would be possible to use this ability by a large number of Jedi to resurrect one life. But one Jedi would die by using it for another in some stories. That would be a great antithesis to Darth Vitiate. "There is No Death, There is the Force"

1 pointEpisode I ATTACK OF THE CLONES Turmoil has engulfed the Galactic Republic. A growing insurrection, led by the mysterious Count Dooku and his legion of clones, has gripped the Outer Rim Territories. In a stunning move, Count Dooku has boldly swept into the Mid Rim region of the Republic and lays siege to the peaceful world of Naboo. While the Republic organizes its response, Minister Bail Organa has secretly dispatched Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi to rescue the royal family of Naboo... One of the biggest problems I had with the prequel trilogy other than the poor writing/dialog, the subpar acting, the over dependence on CGI, and of course Jar Jar Binks was that it didn't quite fit my vision of the story. I'm a first generation Star Wars fan. I stood in line back in 1977 to see the 'Star Wars' and waited patiently for the sequels. I collected the toys, listened to the LP/vinyl story narrations, read the comic books, and listened to the radio dramatization. There wasn't a lot of expanded universe stuff back then. The SW universe was solely the movies. I was reminded of this recently while watching the SW anthology on television. It got me to thinking on how as a kid I thought the story of Darth Vader and the Clone Wars began. This vision was based only on the various small portions of dialog uttered by characters throughout the original trilogy. So, I've begun writing a short story to reconcile my vision with that of George Lucas'. I'm going to let George do most of the heavy lifting. Many of the names, places, etc will remain the same. It's his world after all. I'm just going to reshape it a little to create a more consistent storyline. Some things that I plan on changing: Rearranging the movie title order. It will go Attack of Clones, The Phantom Menace, Revenge of the Sith The clones are bad guys. As a kid, I always assumed the clones would be the enemy. I assumed the practice of cloning was outlawed within the Republic. Cloning may lend itself to a form of slavery or class structure which would be in conflict with a just republic. Also, I kind of saw the clones as unnatural and an affront to the Force. The story will take place over a shorter period of time. Trying to stick to the accepted timeline, I am looking at my story taking place roughly between 22-19BBY I see Anakin as a very different character. First, he will be older and more experienced when he first meets Obi-Wan. I'm basing this on two quotes: "He was the best star pilot in the galaxy, and a cunning warrior"- Obi Wan Ep4 and "When I first knew him, your father was already a great pilot, but I was amazed on how strongly the Force was with him."-Obi Wan Ep6. Plus, when Vader is unmasked in Jedi, he's an older man--well into his 50's possibly 60's. This would mean Anakin would have to be in his 30's when we first meet him and not some child who wins one pod race. He would have already left Tatooine on his own, and there would be no mommy issues. Also, his path to the dark side would have less to do with saving Padme but more along the lines of a reckless quest for power and glory. You might counter that the Jedi would never train someone that old. First, we didn't know that piece of information back in the day. Secondly, we know they are capable of training an older candidate---Luke. Thirdly, Obi Wan says "..I took it upon MYSELF to train him as a Jedi....I was wrong."-Ep6. Finally, I plan on creating a situation where the Jedi need to train Anakin. Obi-Wan will be older as a result. Bail Organa will have a more prominent role than the one portrayed by Jimmy Smits. In her hologram, Leia states, "...years ago you served my father during the Clone Wars". I'm going to bump Bail up to a position similar to a Secretary or Minister of Defense, specifically Minister of Peace. He's the official in charge of the military, and the Jedi work closely with him. Therefore, the Republic will have at least some form of a 'standing army' and fleet at their disposal. I always saw the unforms and weapons used later by the Rebellion as surplus items from this time. Eventually, the Empire would replace these forces with stormtroopers. Padme. She'll be Anakin's love interest, but not really a motivating factor for his fall to the dark side. That gives you a taste of where I'm going. The writing is going well so far. It's not so much an actual short story, but reads more like a Wookieepedia entry. We'll see. It's always evolving. GoldLeader

0 pointsHi, I've tried the mod on xbox 360 and it works just fine. The installation process is pretty much the same, you need a modded xbox 360 with Aurora and after dumping the game files from the disc to the hdd, you can just transfer the files over to PC to apply the mod an then back to the 360's hdd. Now I'm curious about getting other mods to work on the xbox version and I'm currently watching your video on youtube. Since I've seen someone ask if the mod works with any version of the game, if it can still be of any help, yes it does. I have an italian xbox version of the game, the modded dialog.tlk that comes with the mod simply overwrites the one in the game files.

0 pointsSo this was a long time coming, way too long I was working on this but finally got it to a relatively good state. I mean it's still messed up in some ways but the biggest thing that gave me trouble was the experience points in alignment to the level-ups. I got that to work but you can't auto-level up lol sorry. But for the exp, I essentially needed to create code caves and track down a struct where the experience points for level-ups were stored. I had to change that offset when the game parses the exptable.2da at the beginning and in a function when you load a character. Other problems are that you can't see the "experience needed" for level ups but it's the same exact equation for calculating the needed exp for level-ups regardless and the same exact needed amounts like in KotOR 2 so peek at the exptable.2da for that I guess lol. And the other problems I know are that you can't get feats and force powers past level 21. You could always mess with the featgain.2da and classpowergain.2da for levels before 21. You can still get attributes and skills past level 21. And you could still be pretty op with all those attribute points, health point, and force power point increases. To install, make a backup of your old K1 exe and 2da files that would be replaced by this mod. Then just put the 2da files in the Override and replace the exe of course. Here is how I worked on it before, but I just fixed the exp problem today. I could go further than level 50, hell the code cave I made can fit way more exp storage data, I could go thousands more but I think 50 in itself is a bit overkill even lol. But no one says you have to keep leveling up anyways. And I just always thought that level 20 was a little too low and just figured matching KotOR 2's level cap was the way to go. I can do this same mod for KotOR 2 btw but I don't think it's needed that much. But if someone really wanted it I could put it out there too of course like raising that cap to 75 or something. Other purposes you can use for this mod are other mods in combination with this like Brotherhood of Shadow, other planet mods, and other mods that add more to the game. You can mod Malak's utc file on the last Star Forge module and make him a lot tougher and stronger to match your higher level character too! There could be other problems too so I might need to make patches for this more down the road. Edit: I fixed a lot of things now. You can download from here again I updated the downloads in this post too. Edit 2: I just updated this again so now feats and force powers go past 20 class levels! So now you can go to level 50 still increasing them! 2das.rar xptable.2da swkotor.exe exptable.2da
