I think that’s actually integrated Intel not understanding bumpmaps at all, although I can’t say the cubemap dimensions couldn’t factor there too. The Sith armors are the most obvious offenders with them.

I don’t recall what happened in that film, but I definitely agree with you, especially as an answer to my original question. After all, I didn’t ask what makes villain an interesting character, and I seriously doubt that a character who acts solely out of malice would suddenly be not-villain due to their lack of noble goals.

God no. That's just an example of terrible writing. See this for further detail.

While I agree that Shamus’ analysis of Mass Effect is awesome, I would argue that there’s nothing inherently wrong with having the villain be the best-dressed one in the story, if it fits, although pretty much the only option I can think of where the costume would make the villain is when the character walks into an animal rights group dressed in leather.

Imagine realizing that a planned story feature is impossible with the planned rules of the world. Good thing is that the whole thing is still in its design stage, so changing things isn’t TOO difficult, but I’m curious as to what people think.

(My personal stance is that the best course of action is to change the thing that is less important to the whole.)

Isn’t it a dlg error and not script trigger one?

I was already a programmer when I started studying it, so I may not be the best one to ask that. 🤔 Compared to moving to Python from Java, it’s a piece of cake. Other than that, I can’t really say.

No, ERFEdit is just a packaging tool. (Think of WinRar or 7-zip or something like that, if you will.) You need to modify the utc files with whatever your preferred method is, ERFEdit is just for putting them to the correct module files instead of dropping them to Override or dabbling with TSLPatcher.

I would say the difficulty level also depends on how quickly you can get the hang of the tools and stuff.

I would personally use ERFEdit for dumping a single file into a module, if it’s not something I’m going to do lot. 🤔 Which is quite straightforward.

It kind of gives the feeling you can take it, SH. 🤔

”Tattooine”, huh? Is that a place where you get tattoos in Star Wars?

My files said it required 80, so if you needed to get it up to 90... either your file has higher requirement, or it required a global that’s set only in certain way. Curious.

Either way, you’re welcome. It was fun.

I did compare two incomplete sets of files, so I’m not exactly surprised. What influence did you end up with?

I switched party members based on influence options. Exploited (albeit finding the fact by accident) that you can actually change your party on your first visit on Onderon (I believe it locks normally? Or do I remember wrong?) if you don’t select a third party member when you go there (instead selecting them on-planet). And I collected the final inf points on M4-78. (I was short of two with one character, I believe. Or maybe two characters?)

I had to take a bunch of DS hits of course, but in the end, I did have my LS mastery.

Welllll you’ll apparently need inf 80, so you should be fine with only two extra increases. I don’t have a complete chart, but I believe Onderon is the best option for non-darkside ones. I have three possible options for you.

1) join the civil unrest. In the ”I won’t remain silent any longer” scene, pick options ”Soldier, call for reinforcements”, ”I would rather fight for Vaklu”, and ”If we want to work with Vaklu”.

NOTE: you must not have GOTO for this scene.

2) If you manage to get the attention of the bounty lady, pick the option ”I’ll be going now” and ”I agree, Vaklu has a lot more to offer us”.

NOTE: you must not have Mira, Visas or Kreia for this scene.

NOTE2: you can still side with Talia, as long as you don’t kill any of the targets (cashing the bounties with nonlethal methods is allowed, but not necessary).

3) For the second visit for Onderon, take Mandalore (alongside with Kreia) with you. When comes the option to decide Vaklu’s fate, pick ”You’re right. If left free, he will bring nothing but suffering.”

NOTE: if I calculated correctly, you need only two of these, but I included a third option in case you want to send Mandalore to Freedon Nadd’s tomb.

I would personally go with 2 and 3. I’m pretty sure you can catch the bounty lady’s attention without starting a riot... but I haven’t done that in a while, so don’t quote me on that.

It is possible, although it may require picking some options very carefully. (I’ve managed  to get inf 100 with everyone, while maintaining full LS, albeit it was a bit hack-ish. But if your goal isn’t to max everyone, but only get enough influence to get Mandalore to tell the story, it’s manageable even without exploiting.)

People like that make me think I’m better off not attempting to create a mod with original content.

One ground texture at the back of those downed Republic ships (alongside one misplaced one, where a texture with transparency was used in a place where an opaque would make more sense). Can’t remember which ones, I hunted them down once but lost my files.

You know, that is actually hilarious. Like this one texture that’s missing on Malachor V.

Maybe some Windows update broke something?

Isn’t there some kind of technique called ”watermark” that’s essentially some data encoded in a pixel, or am I completely clueless here?

It may or may not work neatly, I might add. Depends on the model.

I might give it a try, although don’t be surprised if I won’t stick after all. Never tried multiplayer server.

@jc2I haven’t... I get stuck with my mod build and find myself at Peragus over and over again.

@CanderisI’m a sort of an on-off fan. Have never gotten myself very much into it, but I tend to play around every once in a while.

I’ve been roleplaying on Finnish forums, but I don’t know how different it is here.

I’ve been dying to try some time, but I’m not sure I qualify. What are the requirements?
