  1. Ok. Well make sure you have the entry in the correct ini file "EnableCheats=1" under Game options. Set your game to run as administrator when you launch. Then launch the game and press the button that is to the left of the "1" on your keyboard. It will have the following symbols " ~ ` " After that come back and let us know if it worked. If it didn't post your OS, & version of Kotor (retail, steam, ect)
  2. Yeah my bad. I have a registry tweak on my PC. If you make a shortcut you can use that option for the ini You can also change the security to the file under properties then go to the security tab and press edit to grant access to edit this file to all users on this PC.
  3. Your game is installed in the programfiles folder then. That means it's UAC protected. Right click the ini file and run as an administrator. Then add the line to enable cheats
  4. Are you trying to use the console for K1 or K2? In K2 the text is not visible even with cheats enabled. Load the game and enter a cheat ( you can just use heal or warp for testing) and see if it works. The file-path you posted is for Kotor 1 though, in that game the console is visible. For K2 you need to edit that games ini. The directory you want is Computer > Local Disk (C:) > Program Files (x86) > Steam > SteamApps > common > Knights of the Old Republic II
  5. The "lensflare" from the sun on Korriban acts in a pretty funny way if you zoom out the camera

  6. Bao Dur's Armor mod Showcase:

    Sorry I forgot to release this nearly a month ago.

      Just popped by while I had a minute and saw this, didn't realize you had done a vid for it, so thanks a bunch Xuul! You rule!

  7. Extract the files inside the zip from THIS link and place them in your override folder. This will fix your HuD

    WTF Steam?

    This is almost worse than youtube comments.... It's unbelievable.
  9. The game looked great and really captured that Star Wars feel. As far as actually being a good game.... it alright. No real depth. It will sell well. I'd give the game 4-6 months max before not many people are playing, unless the DLC is really special. If you care to see my thoughts as I played the game for the first time (having only seen the trailer) you can watch it here.
  10. Last video until I get a new mic. My first impressions of the battlefront beta:

      Idea for a video: Explain how to have the latest KSE find a TSL Steam installation.

      Not sure yet. Maybe i'll spring for a Blue Yeti. I have some research to do tmrw.

  12. Anyone have any suggestions for mods me to check out. Don't be shy!

  13. It might have to do with my recent update to Windows 10 but I did actually have to do the fix that I listed a few weeks back.
  14. Kotor 2 Steam Version has some problems with your PC's registry. I am not sure if this is the issue but it fixed KSE for me. I can't recall the source of this fix but I have it here in my notes for a new guide I am starting a draft of. 1. Open regedit 2. Navigate to the following: 32 Bit Windows: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ =OR= 64 Bit Windows HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node 3. Add Key: "LucasArts" (no quotes) 4. Add Key to LucasArts Key: "KotOR2" (no quotes) 5. Add String Value to KotOR2 Key: "Path" (no quotes) with data set to "C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Knights of the Old Republic II\" (no quotes) on 32-bit Windows, =OR= "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Knights of the Old Republic II\" on 64-bit windows. =OR= Whatever path your steamgames are installed
  15. Is the new installation correctly set in your registry?
  16. If this were to happen it would be very intresting. Obviously it would be a huge undertaking, expanding upon or "enhancing" the planet would be really exciting if done well. I have not played the original mod though I keep meaning to check it out. If this were to ever happen, I would do my best to support the project in whatever ways I could.
  17. My video on SLM 2.0 (finally)

      Thanks! I think that I knew that... but I had spent the past few days with hilts on the mind I ended up saying something weird as per usual.

      Thanks for the vid. I can't wait to try the mod on my next playthrough.

      Also one tiny correction from the video is that the sabers don't actually have any skill or class requirements. The saber Kreia uses on Peragus is restricted to her only but that's it. The boss dropped ones have extra stats on them, only minor ones to make them a little more worthwhile to use.

  18. Was not aware that this was an active project. Looks very interesting.
  19. Blog update featuring answers to your question from Aspyr Media: http://deadlystream.com/forum/blog/39/entry-106-an-aspyring-talk/

    An Aspyring talk

    The Xuul Report: Issue #2 Welcome to another entry of the Xuul Report. I will try to post more of these and become a less terrible writer. As always a to keep it authentic. As many of your know, the Steam version of Kotor 2 has received a massive update. This came at somewhat of a surprise to many people, myself included but also raised many questions. Never being one to step back from a challenge, I set to get some answers. First I scoured the internet (Reddit, my Youtube comments, and Deadlystream) and gathered what I thought were the frequently asked questions. Then, I got in touch with one of the wonderful people over at Aspyr, the company behind the big update, and had a little chat with them. Here is a distilled version of the questions and answers from said chat. An abridged version of my conversation with Aspyr Xuul: Will there be a similar update for Kotor 1? Aspyr: We never say never, but currently an update to KOTOR 1 on desktop is not on the roadmap. Xuul: Why update Kotor 2 after all these years? Aspyr: Updating our favorite games has been a big part of our business for years. For example, we’ve made significant updates to The Sims 2: Super Collection, Command & Conquer: Generals Deluxe Edition, Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Remastered, etc. So when we set out to finally bring KOTOR II to Mac and Linux, it made perfect sense for us to dive in and update the game for modern hardware capabilities (including Windows PCs). Xuul: Is there any way for Retail (4disk) users of Kotor 2 to use the update without having to repurchase the game on Steam? Aspyr: "We don’t have an automatic mechanism for this, but retail copy owners should contact our support team and we will do our best to take care of them. You can reach them HERE. Xuul: Will the update for Kotor 2 ever be pushed out to the Good Old Games (GoG) Version? Aspyr: We are working with our friends at GOG and Disney to hopefully make that a reality soon. Xuul: Mod Piracy is a concern to many people. What, if anything, can/could be done about this issue by either yourself or Steam/Valve? Aspyr: ... Most of that has ironed itself out, but we do plan to clean up Workshop at some point. Our stance is, only the actual Mod authors should post the mod. Of course, we can’t prevent people from posting mods, but we can pull them down if we find out they are not being posted by the correct author. I would encourage any modder who is concerned about this to contact our support team and let us know what has happened. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If there is anything I missed you can ask it in the comments of the blog or send me a PM(Deadlystream) or and Email(found on my Youtube channel). Do not send me an Inbox on youtube as the inbox system is terrible. I may have the answer to your question here, or I can pass the question along to my friends at Aspyr, and hope that they are not too annoyed with me by now. Thank you very much for reading, and have an excellent day. -Xuul
  21. Ok I got some answers from Ayspr media. I need to write up a post or make a video about it or something soon

    1. Sith Holocron

      Sith Holocron

      If you don't do a video, why not make a blog post here?

    2. Xuul

      That's probably what I would do. I just happen to be a terrible writer.

  22. I saw your post on the Reddit. Hopefully you can get all the issues worked out. Looks great.
