    Hello there! This is my first-ever post here on DeadlyStream, and I’m coming with some hopefully exciting news. This month I will be launching a new mod for KOTOR 1: Sleheyron: Story Mode. Built upon the legendary SithSpecter’s 2014 Sleheyron Demo, this new mod will be adding several hours of new gameplay to KOTOR 1. I was inspired by SithSpecter’s work, and I’m hoping in the future my mod will be compatible with his. It would be a worthy venture for me to undertake to make our Sleheyron stories co-exist. After all, I owe him a HUGE debt of thanks for permitting other modders to build off his Sleheyron demo! The mod is actually out of development now and is in beta testing. Feedback has been pretty good so far. Bugs to fix, but none gamebreaking. If anyone else is interested in beta testing, please do let me know. This new mod is my first ever project, and I’m quite excited to share it with you. Sleheyron will feature: 1: A several hours long story, voice-acted (no AI voices either). 2: A fully-voice acted new party member, complete with a post-Sleheyron story (including a Leviathan rescue). 3: Approximately 30 new modules of various shapes and sizes (including the four published by SithSpecter, which are amazing and I owe him a huge thanks!) 4: New weapons and armor. 5: Lots of connections to Tales of the Jedi, as I am a big fan of those comics. If this sounds interesting to you, I would be pleased to share an early version of my first dialog from the mod, via the Reddit link below. I hope it’s an exciting enough plot hook! https://www.reddit.com/r/kotor/s/EeoYqeLFJ9 And just one small disclaimer: At this time, the mod is not confirmed compatible with other mods. I plan to update its compatibility this summer, however. I look forward to releasing this mod this month!

    Good catch, Salk. I shall look into this when I get around to it. Ahlan Matale's face should be the same though his outfit changes between modules. In the main NPC Diversity Pack, Ahlan in danm13 and danm14ad are wearing two different clothing outfits whilst danm14ad Ahlan is wearing Durasteel Battle Armor. The idea is that he's gone home and changed outfits between danm13 and danm14ab whilst in danm14ad he's obviously prepared to siege the Sandrale Estate himself hence why he's wearing armor. If you install the Onderon Fashion install or the Galaxy of Faces mod, Ahlan will wear fancy Onderon style clothes in danm14ad as you've noticed. Now for everyone else. I haven't been focusing on the NPC Overhaul Series for the past few months what with the much anticipated release of the Revenge of Revan mod's first episode at the start of the year. I would like to announce that I've released the start of the K1 Alien Pack which you'll be able to access once the mod's been approved. Since it's been so long since I first previewed the K1 Alien Pack here in this thread, I've added two more aliens to the release including the Ithorians and Bith... the Duros and Devaronians. As for the NPC Diversity Pack itself, I'd like to fix a problem I've been encountering for a while now. There are plenty of male NPCs, but there are so few female NPCs that I run out of females NPCs for my addons like the Onderon Clothing and the Fat Commoner addons. To fix this issue, I'm considering adding an installation, or just outright adding it to the main install, which adds brand new NPCs into the game. These NPCs will still use the generic VO from the base game and will resemble the normal NPCs, an example of what this might look like is an NPC repairing a swoop bike on Dantooine or new traveller NPCs in the Republic Embassy module on Manaan where there are no traveller NPCs in the base game.

    You'd have to strategically replace stuff already listed in the item code list. There are ways to interface with the system, but adding custom codes, like DarthParametric said, isn't possible. Familiarity with the KotOR Tool Templates.bif, Item section. Look at a_light /a_medium / a_heavy / a_robe items. I wrote a Nexus Article about how those items are sectioned, by letter C through K, referring to model in the appeareance.2da

    Hi there! I am trying to create new rooms in K1 jedi enclave. I reached Thor110 about this, as he has done it before, and he had really good insights about this. However there is something going wrong in the finalizing steps for this. So here is how i am trying to do it, with detailed screenshots: - First I create my new room model with unique names for every parts/objects... (here, I mirrored a room, in this case i mirrored m13aa_06a). - Then i extract every model files, layout, .vis and walkmeshes into a single folder. - Then i check in blender the correct coordinates for my new room in the layout, i edit my new room walkmesh to be perfectly aligned with the adjacent room (in this case, m13aa_01a). To do this i select the vertices from my new room m13aa_07a, then i select the vertices i want it to be aligned with from m13aa_01a, and i make the vertices from m13aa_07a jump into the exact position from the adjacent m13aa_01a ones. - Then i add the new room to the .lyt and the .vis using Notepad++. - Then i open Gmax/Kotormax to check the edges from the walkmeshes where my 2 rooms meet each other. - Then i convert my 2 model files (m13aa_01a, and my new room m13aa_07a) into ascii using mdledit, with the walkmeshes/lyt/vis files in the same folder to edit the roomlinks with notepad++. - Then i convert the 2 model files back into binary. - Finally i drop all the needed files into override (.lyt, .vis, the new model and .wok files). And after all of this is done, it should work, but it does not. I also edited the .are rooms to add my new one, but it does not work either. To make sure my room links were accurately taken into account, i converted back my edited models into ascii, and i noticed the edited model from the preexisting room in the game did not take into account my new roomlinks that i added using notepad++, everytime i convert it back to binary my new roomlink disappear, so there is something wrong here i guess. Ty for any help, it'd be appreciated.

    I assume this is what you're talking about? https://deadlystream.com/topic/5632-black-line-in-middle-of-face/ You could try the Humus GLOverride linked in that thread. Alternatively, you could try a wrapper for DirectX 12 or Vulkan (the Zink archive) - https://github.com/mmozeiko/build-mesa/releases/latest

    View File SWTOR Saber Hilt Resource This is a dump of most of the double and single saber hilts from The Old Republic (as-of May 2025) as FBX files. There are 207 single hilts and 158 double hilts, although note that somewhere between half to two thirds of these are just texture variants, while a not insignificant number of the rest are just minor mesh variations (e.g. different emitter shroud). Notes: The meshes have been scaled to a rough ballpark approximation of KOTOR's hilt size, but will need manual adjustment as well as scene setup (addition of blade planes, etc.). Some will probably also require custom low poly shadowcasters as well, assuming you want to enable shadows. TOR uses texture-based emissive, which will necessitate either mesh splitting or custom mesh creation to replicate/approximate in Odyssey. I have left out some of the more fancy things that TOR gets up to with VFX involving separate meshes with emissive and multiple UV channels. Textures vary in their quality. Many of the launch-era textures are low resolution (256x256) compared to more recent additions (1024x1024), as well as very simplistic and cartoony. The models are similar, with launch hilts often being oversized with minimal geometry detail. Although note that even some more recent additions occasionally have low res textures, even when the models are more detailed. Each hilt archive includes a text file that specifies its material and texture names. Textures are included in their original DDS format. For PS users, install the Intel DDS plugin. For everyone else, you can use TexConv from MS's DirectXTex utilities to convert them to TGA. I have provided pre-swizzled and normalised normal maps in TGA, already in OpenGL format with a blank alpha, ready for conversion to TPC (thanks to ndix UR's normun tool). Check this SWTOR Slicers wiki page for information about TOR's texture setup. Note that the diffuse textures are made for TOR's renderer, so will likely require some adjustment to work correctly in Odysssey. You'll also need to make your own envmap masks. Given the sheer volume of files and the process of manually converting them, it's quite possible I have missed some textures or the like. Let me know if that's the case. If you're looking for a particular hilt and you only know its in-game name (from, for example, Swtorista) check TORCommunity's database (warning, site is often slow as hell) and find its model name in the Detailed Data tab of the item (search for gr2, for example - "Model": "\\art\\dynamic\\weapon\\model\\saber_high12_a01_v01.gr2"). Refer to the SWTOR Slicers wiki page for more detailed information. Posted in the K1 section, but naturally they'll work for either game depending on what format you export the models in. Terms of Use: I make no claims of ownership. This is all taken from TOR's asset files, I just extracted them. Credit belongs to Disney/EA/Bioware/Broadsword. Use as you see fit, although if you use them in a mod release an acknowledgement would be nice. Submitter DarthParametric Submitted 06/02/2025 Category Modder's Resources

    Most mods are free, so that part is moot. The culture iwth modding has always been very aware of the amount of time that goes into a hobby, I assure you. SAO has also not heeded much in the way of advice given by SH or others with such an ambitious starting project, even with such basic things as sharing screenshots here of their project. Whether I trust you or not is also moot, since you're not trying to release or upload the mod. While you do seem to edit your posts a lot instead of taking the time to craft a reply, my comment was not out of trust. You entered in with a lot of support from out of nowhere, hence SH's white-knighting comment, with this being the first mention that you're helping and beta-testing. That helps explain the hearty defense, but not all critique and criticism is wrong. And SAO can share what details they're okay with sharing here.

    Testing, testing, is this thing on? Dropping a friendly reminder to be civil with each other. Criticism and critiques of a project are fine when constructive, though simple observations of the facts are neither. The same cannot be said of the later interactions here. SH and DP both pointed out and expressed similar sentiments, just a bit differently. It's not right to get on someone's case just because you don't like how they expressed themselves. For one, this manner of dialog is blunt, but typically so. If SAO wants to respond to fair criticisms about their timeline, they can do so when they're online. @The_Chaser_One As far as I'm aware, it's still not the norm for someone not working on or associated with a project to be giving updates and sharing projected schedules, as that can be misinformation or wildly inaccurate. Getting upset when called out on it is rather poor form. Especially when you simultaneously want someone to not post the way they normally post but also won't block them because you like reading their responses. It's always possible to ignore posts you don't like. P.S: On a personal note: Kinda cheeky throwing SH's words back at him here. The statement is still true, as SAO did give a deadline already, when SH's advice would have been to not announce a release timeline. It would have been better to not give a deadline than to miss the deadline. While it could be true that missing the deadline is better for quality, I'd also ask this: is it a good thing that a deadline was missed in a project? Doesn't that mean the deadline was not estimated correctly in the first place?

    I am cautiously optimistic about this. I am always looking forward to playing mods that add large amounts of custom content like this, if only just due to the sheer scarcity of them. Please just keep doing whatever you're doing. I don't know if this will be bad or great or in between, but the screenshots at least tell me you've put quite a good chunk of your time into it. That alone is at least pretty promising. Best of luck with this, thanks for the extra screenshots.

    Oh yeah i understand thank you Sorry for the stupid question, i should've read that all the way through 😅 Okay so... Turns out i have the same problem, even with the english version 😥 I have nine errorswho looks like : "'EntryList\256\RepliesList\2\Active' does not exist!" https://jumpshare.com/s/bmldUaE8joDa9ldywQmv Maybe does the mod still works even with these errors ? Also im not on the latest aspyr version, but on the previous one called "legacypc" , on steam

    View File Droid models animation fix Description: As i am working on porting some assets from the second game to the first one, i have noticed numerous things with the droid models from both games: - In K2 TSL, some droids didnt have any animations when you were hitting them in melee with swords. That's why they are completely frozen, this is specifically obvious when you are playing the Peragus sections with the mining droids. - In both games, some animations were only used once, where it should be use twice to happend everytime. This is the case with the War droid from K1 for instance, that would freeze 50% of the time when hit in melee with a sword. - In K1, T3-M4 does not have any animation for melee, but in K2 he does. - In K2 TSL, the beta model for the large mining droids was very broken, with animations not having the proper name and some missing animations aswell. - In K2 TSL, some models didnt have the footstep sounds while performing the dodge animation. I did my best to fix all of this, re-using and tweaking some animations where it was needed. Use this mod, either to fix the animations you need, or as a modder's ressource to introduce the droids as you see fit. Detailed content: K1 ONLY * T3 has a melee animation. BOTH GAMES * The War Droid is animated everytime you successfully hit it in melee. * The construction boss droid is now animated when you both miss and hit it in melee. It now has footsteps sounds when dodging. * The small and large vanilla mining droids from Peragus are animated when you both hit and miss them in melee. The hit animation from the small mining droid is brand new, adapted from the head turn left. * The small and large beta mining droids that are not used anywhere in the game to my knowledge are animated when you both hit and miss them in melee. The large droid now is animated correctly when outside of combat. He will now be animated 100% of the time when he fights in melee. The melee animation from the large droid has been tweaked to be more impactful and impressive. The large droid now has footstep sounds when dodging. * The tank droid will now be animated when both hitting and missing him in melee. The soundstep has been slightly adjusted when it dodges. Disclaimer : It seems there is a problem with the large cut droid shadows (reported by N-DreW25). I'll see about fixing this. The little fix for the War Droid from K1 has been performed on the model from the K1 community patch. The base model i used is not my work, and i simply added the missing row when hit in melee. Do not re-use this asset for your own work without giving proper credit to the K1CP team. Also i have converted my work from K1 to K2 instead of the opposite, so if there's anything wrong with K2 droids tell me. With the few playtests i did everything seemed fine tho. Installation : Drop the desired .mdl and .mdx files to override and you're ready to go. Credit: K1CP team for the base war droid model fixes. Permissions: Feel free to use my work, just a simple credit. Do not use the war droid asset for your own work without giving proper credit to the K1CP team.

    So you want them as random loot? Given the specified level range, this is presumably for TSL. Its vanilla random loot table script can't be decompiled via DeNCS, but @JCarter426 has been beavering away at an alternative for years. I'm not exactly sure what your options are for either including it as an addon for that or trying to integrate it into the vanilla system.

    Hi guys. I've recently installed the KotOR High Resolution Menus 1.5 and K1 Main Menu Widescreen Fix 1.2 mods. Absolutely love how the the game looks. The only issue I have with it is that the loading screens are stretched from 4:3 to 16:9 and is a little eye catching between loads. I'm wondering if anyone ever has or is it possible to port the redone 16:9 loading screens from the android release? (Or alternatively if anyone knows a way I can port back the original loading screens unstretched with maybe a border around them) Thanks for the time guys, love all the content here!

    I have questions. Here are a few . . . to start. What's your modding experience? As you’ve never posted here before, no one here is likely to know of any work you may (or may not) have done before. What's the size of your beta team? Who is working with you on this? Is it mostly a solo affair? Do you have any screenshots other than the galaxy map which could have come straight from Sithspecter's mod? With some minimal research, I see you’ve posted two videos on YouTube. Will all of your characters be aliens? If so, is that why you say there won’t be any AI voices? In those two videos, I don’t think I saw any lip sync for the dialogues? Are you planning to fix that, preferably before the next teaser video release? (But especially before a mod release.) Why are you starting with a planet mod as your first KotOR mod? So, it sounds like there are about 26 new modules in your mod that Sithspecter hasn’t created. Are they actually new or are they reskinned previous modules? Speaking of skins, have you made any new ones? Or is it a combination of recycling of materials found in the base game combined with what Sithspecter may have provided in his previous effort? This last one may be out of left field but I just have to ask: Are there any areas in the mod which render characters as orange colored?

    View File Better Stealth Toggle An autohotkey script that makes stealth much less of a chore to use. I always hated having to manually dismiss the popup when entering stealth mode and AGAIN when disabling solo mode. This fixes that. How it works: You define a single key that when pressed will either: 1. put the currently controlled character into stealth mode; or 2. disables solo mode (which also takes you out of stealth mode). In both cases the popup is dismissed when you release the key. So... You just need to set up the script to use your preferred key and also tell it what keys are bound ingame to your solo mode and stealth mode... and have the script running while running the game, of course. You can edit the script using notepad or whatever. I made notes next to the parts that need to be changed NOTES: 1) I made three notes within the script where you'll need to make changes to make this work for you (keybinds). 2) The script may need some customized tweaking because it taps a pixel at screen location X=53, Y=1000 in order to detect if the currently controlled character is in stealth mode or not. I'm running the game at 1920x1080, so if your resolution is different, this won't work "out of the box". 3) Let me know if it doesn't work and I'll work with you to fix it. 4) Also, I can only play the game in windowed mode and I don't think it'll work in fullscreen... so I won't be able to help if it doesn't work in fullscreen mode for you.

    Since I believe that nobody has yet reported whether or not BOS:SR is compatible with K1R, I decided to play through BOS to test compatibility. This test run was done on the 4 CD version of the game, on a Windows 8.1 computer. I have encountered issues before with this computer's graphics card, but I believe that I have sorted out the graphics card-based issues with those caused by other things. As far as mods, K1R version 1.0 got installed first, followed by BOS:SR and the v.1.1 patch. I also installed the following mods in my game (not sure about the order, sorry): -Extreme Conditions Combat Robes: http://deadlystream.com/forum/files/file/405-extreme-conditions-combat-robes/ -Duel Room Final: http://deadlystream.com/forum/files/file/559-duel-room-final/ -Proper Manaan Quest Endings: http://deadlystream.com/forum/files/file/557-proper-manaan-quest-endings/ -Lightsaber and Force Forms (originally v. 1.0, but v. 1.1 later installed over it -- I think): http://deadlystream.com/forum/files/file/520-lightsaber-and-force-forms/ -Tomb of Exar Kun (uninstalled before the actual playthrough, but I keep it here in case there could somehow be some effect): http://deadlystream.com/forum/files/file/587-tomb-of-exar-kun-by-deathdisco/ -K1 FP Pack by Insidious (can't find a link, sorry) So then, the burning question: are the two mods compatible? Well... There are no gameplay issues or bugs that were not present before -- only problem I encountered was the game crashing when a bunch of Brothers of Shadow exploded into existence , but on a second attempt, that was not an issue. The mod can be fully played through. However, there are a number of graphics issues that can be annoying and, in one case, make things quite frustrating for new players of the mod. These mostly came in the form of appearances being changed, as in one character (usually a character) appearing as a different one. However, since the other appearances seem to all be from BOS:SR, I'm not sure whether the problem was with K1R, another mod (if this is the case, it's probably the duel room), or simply a faulty installation of BOS:SR. I've included a full list of the appearance bugs below under spoiler tags; if you haven't played before and don't want spoilers, than don't look under them. The first spoiler tag contains the one bug that might hamper new players' gameplay, use that one if you're stuck, and it may have the answer. No matter whether these graphics bugs were caused by K1R or some other factor, BOS:SR can definitely be played through with K1R installed, and does not seem to cause any issues with K1R either. Disclaimer: I played through this mod rather hurriedly, so it is possible that I may have missed something.

    Are you quoting Fair Strides? You do know you can click on the "eye" icon on the top of the comment box and use quotes like I am now, doing so will make your comment much easier for others to follow. The sale of mods in the Kotor Modding Community is prohibited, hence why that part is moot. But ignoring the prospect of making money, modding is a hobby - if we wanted to make money doing stuff like this we'd either join a game dev company or focus on indie video game development. He didn't give a deadline, and so there is no expectations for him to release it any time soon. This gives him an unlimited amount of time to development and perfect his mod. Almost 20 years of development and the most recent preview he released is this. That video is pure gold, absolutely amazing stuff, and I'm more than happy to forget about Sleheyron for the time being so that, one day, he can release his mod to that quality. I'm sure if we looked back at SithSpecter's Sleheyron back in 2008 when it was first being developed, if we compared 6 months worth of development to his most up to date almost 20 years of development I'm sure even SithSpecter would agree that the 6 months worth of work is garbage when you compare it to his most up to date work. I'll tell you this, ROR reentered development in the late 2010s and had an internal release of 2021 - everyone would've loved a 2021 ROR release, but if it was released in 2021 it would've been to the exact same quality as the 2011 Demo. We obviously missed the 2021 deadline, but by not announcing it we could just... move on and go about developing the mod as if nothing had happened. There was no outside pressure to release a half-finished mess and by giving ROR more time, and not giving a release deadline, we were able to release ROR Episode One which many can agree is way better than the 2011 Demo. This is why the veteran modders here are pointing out the deadline, albeit I do agree that it does seem a bit harsh. I'm on the same page as Mephiles550 in that I do want to see this mod released. But for modders who lived to see TSLRP and all the drama surrounding that mod back in the day, seeing Sao pop up out of nowhere, claim he's been working on Sleheyron, claim that it's already fully voiced, claim that it already has 30 new areas, claim that it already has a recruitable character, claim that the mod is already finished in May and will be released within May and then go on to withhold screenshots does feel as if history is just repeating itself for these guys. And trust me, I've seen users claim they'll make a recruitable character, then go on to us prominent modders and send a hundred page manuscript for said recruitable character and it turns out the character is a self-insert of the user irl and is just hundreds of pages of pure slop, not even AI just pure handwritten slop, then go on to beg modders like us to make the recruitable character mod for them and then go on to confess that they only have Kotor on the original Xbox. And then there was that one guy who tried to gaslight people into making his "Recruitable Sarna" mod for him too. That's just the stuff I've witnessed, these guys had to deal with Darth Balor and his shenanigans back in the late 2000s. I know Sao isn't like those guys, but the negative reactions here are coming from people who have historically had to deal with crazy people like what I just described. Here's the thing, he hadn't shown screenshots. From the point of view of one of us, Sao is just a profile picture and a username - how do we know he's being serious without screenshots? As I've described, we have had really delusional people in the past make such ambitious projects and they're genuinely Chris Chan level of pathetic. Sao did send screenshots... today, not when SH asked for screenshots hence why there was doubt. But now that Sao has shown us screenshots, it shows us that there is a genuine mod in the works. I'm glad he's posted them and I hope it does see the light of day. I need you to understand that, from our point of view, we wouldn't know that he did any of that - how would we know anyway??? Revenge of Revan is being worked on, but none of you know what's being worked on because we're not revealing it to the public - the same applies here in this situation. She means you're not the team leader of the mod. The team leader would usually be the one to upload the mod when it's ready, and Sao hasn't publicly announced that you're on the Sleheyron: Story Mode dev team - hence her skepticism. It's just like how I'm not the team leader of the Revenge of Revan mod, Logan23 is. Like Sao, you are likewise new to the community. Even if I were the one defending Sao's work, no one is going to change the minds of the veteran modders so there isn't much point in vigorously defending against them. They aren't going to care for your defense and wouldn't care if you blocked them, maybe a proper release could change their minds but even still when Revenge of Revan came out the joke went from "ROR's never going to release" to "remind me in 2045 when Episode Two's going to come out" so there's little point fussing over their opinions. From our own experiences, 10% of WIP threads produce actual mod releases. The other 90% were "making false promises". Trust me, if someone else joined and made another ambitious WIP thread they'll probably think the same thing for their mods too.

    @Fair Strides I see what you mean. They are right about the deadline not being an actual deadline and SAO being too ambitious. I was just saying that it doesnt seem fair to me to reproach that when he's doing his best to make his mod exhaustive and well detailed, as SH was worried about. Especially when we'll all get the finished mod for free. And as I'm helping SAO and beta testing his mod, I consider myself "associated with the project". If you don't trust me, you can always ask him yourself what he thinks "Getting upset when called out on it is rather poor form" : Well, as far as I'm aware, no one "called out on" me "giving updates and sharing projected schedules" , and thus I didnt "get upset" about it... And yeah, I'm giving a large time range (so not very accurate, indeed) because he needs to do some more stuff such as setting HoloPatcher. Because yes, he's trying to make it compatible with K1CP and RC K1CP (not like other big mods, if you see what I mean).

    In KOTOR 2 it's actually possible to remove most of GUI elements (including names above NPCs and placeables) by deleting structures named "BORDERS", "CONTROLS", "EXTENT" from the file mipc28x6_p.gui. KOTOR I probably uses this or similarly named file for its GUI. But like La Ingobernable said, switching between combat styles, using grenades and Force powers without UI is impossible. Maybe you can use hotkeys for some actions, but I doubt. Here is reworked file from KOTOR 2 for reference. mipc28x6_p.gui
