  1. Kyle Katarn got creative to kill the Sewer Rancor on Taris. Instead of putting a grenade with the Hidden Bek's Chemical on a corpse, Kyle just ate a grenade, Let the rancor eat him and let the grenade explode inside of him. The rancor was killed and Kyle came out unharmed. And Darth Revan shat himself upon witnessing this.
  2. These Nar Shaddaa screenshots are seriously some of the best texture work I've ever seen in TSL, mainly for my own personal reasons. You have no idea how long I've wanted a great Nar Shaddaa texture mod, as it's always been my favorite planet in the Kotor games and one of my favorite locations in Star Wars overall. and I knew for sure that you would be the best person for the job. All of the animated panels, the HD textures and none of it feels out of place at all! It all wraps around the map nicely and doesn't stick out whatsoever. I think I felt a tear coming out of my eye when I saw the 5th NS screenshot.
  3. If Kotor was remade under today's gaming standards, Yavin IV and a re-written Korriban and/or Manaan would be DLC packs in a $40 season pass.

      Lol, a Sleheyron remake that's on-disc DLC

      The ending for light-side and dark-side would be the same except for different colored lightsabers in the final scene of the game

      Yeah, in the offline sector especially EA sympathizes with that kind of policy - CD Projekt Red is the only exception i know.

      Id really like to see some more 30+ hours quality "expansions" like the old ones from NWN2.

  4. I always thought that Atton had the creepiest Dark Side transition. Disciple looks creepy, ya, but Atton looks ever more hideous. As for Atris merged with Kreia/Traya's robe, I actually think the idea is pretty good. Imagine Atris turning around to reveal herself for the first time in the robe revealing who she is, then imagine seeing the back of the exact same robe with Kreia's face instead, revealing the real Darth Traya. I like it.
  5. Darth Sion. The guy is living in constant pain, both physical and mental. Seriously, think about that. The willpower it must take to get along with that body of his. Makes me wonder if it's possible to cut off his limbs, considering all that he's gone through and what he's capable of. That demonic scottish accent is something, I tell ya 'hwut I heard a rumor that, at one point of the game's development, the mask of Darth Nihilus was supposed to be Revan's Skull. If that were true, that would automatically make him my favorite. He's still third place though. Kreia's my second favorite. Malak was just a butcher. He didn't really have anything interesting going on about him in the game itself. He has an interesting backstory, but none of that is actually revealed in the game (specific involvement in the Mandalorian Wars, love interest, etc). Revan... I'm pretty certain that TOR ruined my perception of Revan. TSL left open so many badass interpretations for Revan that could have been left for fans to ponder. Whatever answers we got from TOR left me dissatisfied. I'm not ever sure as to why. I'm sure plenty of people disagree with me here. Malgus looks cool. That's about all I can say about him. he LOOKS cool. Darth Bandon exists just to die and give me 3000 credits
  6. Still never going to buy this. I'm not going to pay $110 for any game to be complete, whether it be Battlefield or Battlefront, and I'm not going to buy half of a game that's pretty much only online.
  7. Additional textures are not needed, trust me. Most of the guns just re-use the same textures from Kotor and the ones with TSL-unique textures, of which none come to mind, can just share some other textures instead. That won't be a problem. Motivation-wise, I understand fully. I've been playing more Kotor than TSL. I'm indifferent to the situation because I already set up my TSL to have all blasters replaced with custom models (ToastyFresh & some other models here) but I'm just asking because I know for sure that some would be interested. By the way, my favorite designs are the Blaster Cannon and the Genoharaden blaster.
  8. This is a fantastic model pack! It feels like they came right from The Old Republic. If it wouldn't be too much to ask though, do you think you could port this pack over to TSL? Trust me, I know how much of a pain in the ass it would be to do that with the additional weapon types and file changes. I had to make my own modifications using ToastyFresh's Weapon Overhaul TSL beta and I had to convert and edit a good number of models. I'm asking because TSL especially feels really devoid of high quality blaster models.
  9. Atton Rand; I don't think any character was more hilarious and manipulable than that guy. I could just kill some random guy we talk to and he'll be like, "Next time, warn me about that" and I'll still get +influence with him. I can keep killing as many innocent people as I want with him there and still convince him to be a Jedi. XD It sucks doing that with Kreia, though. I keep losing influence from her because of that.
  10. This is probably one of the coolest and weirdest mods ever made. 0.0
  11. If need be, you could just delete or edit the line where Bastila mentions the planets. It doesn't really matter. What I'm wondering is how you'll make Sleheyron's star map not break the game.
  12. Could one make an arguement that TSL without the restored content mod could still be considered a complete game by itself? Obviously it technically isn't, but could one interpret the story without the mod in a way that makes it seem complete?

      The mere thought of playing TSL without TSLRCM is a very frightening prospect indeed.

      Sure, it's easy. You can start it and you can see the ending. Therefore, the game is complete.

      The more I think about possibilites, the more times I remember that HK-47 says you can get to the HK-50 factory when you really can't and that Malachor is a giant mess of a plothole.

  13. It had to happen eventually. ): We have complete backups of JK2/JK3 files via MrWonko. I hope we can create similar backups for Kotor/TSL.
  14. I thought the best way to make money in Kotor was to play Pazaak with Suvam Tam. Isn't his max 750 credits per game?
  15. The plot of this movie is that the Rebels are trying to steal the Death Star plans, right? I hope that they include maybe a few reference to the first Dark Forces level. Ya know, the level where the Death Star plans were stolen by... Kyle... Katarn? I miss him already. ):
  16. Lol, Happy Birthday Darth Nihilus!

  17. I loved this episode. Maul's introduction and absolute domination over nearly everyone, the new Inquisitor, Ezra's introduction to the dark side and especially the emotional fight between Ahsoka and Vader created a perfect finale for this season. I love this show and I can't wait to see more in the future. That said, I couldn't help but notice how some people here have responded to how Malachor looks like. We went from the classic crumpled up mess of a planet that more resembled a compact meteor field into a more generic looking planet. Ya, it's quite obvious that one of these things looks nothing like the other. Even the older & whole version of Malachor shown in TOR didn't look like this. Oddly enough, I thought that Oosalon's surface looked a lot more like what I would have expected from Malachor, what with the dark sky, cracked rock floor, stalagmites, lightning and all. I thought this was a bad change at first, but considering how the planet is referred to throughout the whole episode as Malachor and not Malachor V, I'm assuming that this is just another planet in the Malachor System that was controlled by the Sith while not undergoing the damage that It's TSL counterpart endured during the Mandalorian Wars. There's another problem with this theory though, All of the stone bodies we see of what I'm assuming are all former Jedi and Sith that were fighting in some War, likely the Mandalorian Wars again. If the Mass Shadow Generator didn't turn all of those people into stone, what did? Or was that even a side effect of using the Mass Shadow Generator. Maybe the Sith pyramid that Maul said was also a battle station had something to do with that. We still don't know what it's capable of. Design wise, I'm really liking how Malachor's new surface looks. It's a beautiful and surreal flat landscape with Sith Pillars that somewhat resembles Stonehenge to me. It has a very dream-like atmosphere. Some of my critiques are small and relate mainly to how lightsabers were incorporated into the episode. Were you especially interested to see how the Green Crossgaurd lightsaber would be implemented into the whole thing? You got a 2 second clip of Ezra holding the thing and that's it. Maul's lightsaber was wierd. It looked like a broken 1/3 of an Inquisitor saber with a boring design on the opposite end. What happened to the Black Saber? They should have made Maul's lightsaber a double blade with one end being the Black lightsaber and another being a red saber. What a waste. The worst part about all of this was the stupid saber-copters. I've seen people predict this as a joke earlier on in the show and I can't believe that they actually put it into the show. Seriously, when the Eighth Brother tried to escape using his lightsaber and it broke on him, I must have laughed myself into a coma seeing him fall. This has to be the dumbest idea the whole show has pulled so far. -1 for inquisitor respect, +2 for comedic value. Regardless of his laughable exit, I think that the Eighth Brother lived. We've seem how long falls pretty much kill no force-wielders. It would be a waste just to kill him now anyway. As for the Holocron, My bets are that it'll show Darth Revan. Kreia/Traya would have made more sense, but Revan's Popularity is something that will be easy to exploit.
  18. Probably the best Korriban textures I've ever seen. That skybox is breathtaking. I'm getting a Majora's Mask feeling just from looking at it, especially with that circular/spiral texture you used for the walls. Your evil Bao-Dur also puts Darth Maul to shame.
  19. Isn't this the same issue that the cyan lightsaber had? I know we've had mods that fix that. Maybe you should compare the original cyan lightsaber model to to the mods that fix the problem to try to find a fix.
  20. I suppose it is a bit unethical, yes. Legal, IDK. So no one could make a fan game using the Star Wars name? What if someone made a fan game for Mario or Sonic the Hegehog(which there are plenty of)? Would that all fall fall under infringement?
  21. Using the Star Wars name alone shouldn't be a problem if the thing in question isn't making a profit off it it, right?
  22. That Nihilus shirt is beautiful. Price is worth it.
  23. Funny. I actually downloaded this a couple of hours ago today back on gamefront. Thanks for the reupload.
  24. Yesterday was a great learning experience. Before yesterday, I knew next to nothing about 2DA files outside of how to merge them. Now after having made extensive edits to three different 2DA files, I feel like I can add a lot more variety to Kotor. :)

      Good to hear! What do you have in mind?

      I've already, for the most part, fixed my issues with wearing Darth Bandon's armor by modifying 2 different 2da files. I've also made some edits to lightsabers and their crystals via the upcrystals.2da file and I've made some old mods that use an appearance file manually compatible by only taking some parts of what I want from them.
