    I just took 145 screenshots for the K1 High Quality skyboxes. There are a few duplicates in there but I have a feeling that I should sort some out for the mod page^^

  2. Kexikus

    I was able to find what's causing my TSL not to start. It's the service called "Windows Audio Endpoint Builder". Disabling that allows me to start the game (GoG or LegacyPC on Steam) just fine.

    The problem is that this service is necessary to have any audio at all in Windows. So now I can either play without sound or with the broken fog from the Aspyr patch... Great, just great.

      It doesn't crash for me either. It just doesn't launch.

      But it's also a recent problem. TSL has been working fine ever since I built this PC with Win 10. It was only last month after a longer modding break that for some reason the GoG version would no longer launch. At that point the legacypc version on Steam was still working but a few weeks later the same thing happened there.

      I don't know why. Reinstalling Windows might even fix it, but I don't want to do that right now.

      Maybe some Windows update broke something?

    4. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      Yeah, I guess that's it. I wonder why the Steam version worked some weeks longer but in the end it doesn't really matter.

      Maybe some future Windows update will fix the issue but I'm not counting on it.

  3. Kexikus

    Great... Now the Steam version of TSL is no longer launching either...

      That's worse than having Peragus lag to a near halt, just because you were using a laptop to play Aspyr's version.

      Oh, I'm sorry to hear this Kexikus.

  4. Kexikus

    So today I wanted to finally do some modding again and guess what, my TSL gog installation won't launch anymore. Tried repairing, compability modes, reinstallation, but nothing helped.

    That was certainly not helping with motivation...

      The game won't launch. I can see it active in the task manager but it never really starts.

      Dang. I thought it was the installer which I believe I could assist by sending you a copy of the .exe which works on my end.

      I wonder what is the problem here. 🤔

      Edit: Have you tried using the executable from this release?

       

    4. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      No, I haven't. And I don't think that's the issue either. The very same game installation has been working fine on this exact system. The only reason I can think of is that some Windows update or graphics driver update broke something.

      It's not a big deal though, I just switched to the Steam installation that's still working.

  5. Kexikus

    And I forgot to save the latest changes to my Dantooine skybox... Great. 😪

    1. LiliArch

      LiliArch

      Couldn’t you just rotate the skybox model to fit the direction of the renders?

    2. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      No, I couldn't. Then the sun wouldn't align with the lighting of the area model and the dynamic area lighting.

      But I didn't actually loose all that progress. All I lost were the changes to some smaller secondary clouds and the cirrus clouds. Most of the work is still there though.

    Random question: How do you change the banner on your profile?

    Finished the latest Dark Side Juhani build today and I'm now looking for testers. Send me a PM if you're interested.

  8. Kexikus

    Anyone here who knows what globals need to be set for the final Carth scene in the DS ending to be triggered? I know that K_SWG_CARTH has to be 16 but setting only that seems to crash the game when the scene loads.

    Damn, getting back into modding after some months of not working on a bigger mod is hard...

      I symphatize. I'm currently trying to remember what on Earth I was thinking with some of those dlgs I wrote a couple of years ago (what I do remember is that immediately afterwards I thought they were crap, though) which I recently found again (they got lost when I moved to a new computer).

      At this point, I'm not even surprised by what some Steam users say. I think the worst I've seen was this thread on the RE4 page. Made me want to smash my head into my keyboard. http://steamcommunity.com/app/254700/discussions/0/2592234299578921834/

    Photobucket decided to no longer let me embed my pictures on other sites like here. Guess I finally have a reason to no longer use their crappy website :)

    1. DarthParametric

      DarthParametric

      Yeah, their cash-grab has hilariously blown up in their face, PR-wise. There are plenty of free alternatives around, and you could run an entire fleet of your own servers for the ludicrous $400 they want. I wouldn't be surprised if they go kaput in the next 12-18 months.

    Thanks to bead-v I was able to reenable fog on the Harbinger in my TSL Backdrop Improvements mod: http://deadlystream.com/forum/files/file/949-tsl-backdrop-improvements/

    Added 6 more 2da files to my 2da file overview. There are still many files missing, including some very important ones, so if you have any knowledge about these, please let me know :)

      The values are row references, as I said above.

    3. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      Okay, now I get it. I saw only the 288, 289 and 351 rows in weapondischarge.2da and linked these to the columns in droiddischarge.2da. But looking again I now see the 66_288 row etc. I still wonder why some entries in droiddischarge.2da are blank. I guess I'll play around with these to see if I can determine what they do exactly.

    4. DarthParametric

      DarthParametric

      Yeah that's why the columns have IDs and not labels - it's combining the number with the column ID to form a row ID. Seems kind of unnecessary, surely you could just use straight row IDs, but then again I scratch my head at a lot of their decisions.

  15. Kexikus

    I might have found a solution to a big Dark Side Juhani issue that I prievously thought to be unfixable :) Still needs testing but it looks promising.

    1. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      It's actually working. No idea why it took me so long to find this fix but I'm just glad it's doing what it's supposed to do :)

      That's great news!

  16. Kexikus

    I seem to remember that you can repair HK-47 in TSL similar to K1 in order to get a bonus to his stats, but I can't find anything on this. Could anyone confirm or deny my memories?

      But in TSL, it's T3 who bears the brunt of stat bonuses.

    3. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      Thanks for the confirmation. Guess I might add this feature back into the game.

    4. jc2

      ^^ that would be cool to see!

  17. Kexikus

    I seem to remember that it's somehow possible to get the Sith banned from Manaan but I can't find anything on this option. Am I misremembering or am I just blind?

      During the first, I believe. Which means you need to get to those Shasa and the other Selkath inside the Sith Base before you exit it the first time.

    3. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      Good to know. Seems that my memory of these events was completely wrong then. Thanks for letting me know :)

    4. jonathan7

      jonathan7

      Darth Tyren is correct. When you raid the Sith base, you can uncover evidence of them trying to brainwash the Selkath base and can present that evidence.

    Sonniss currently offers a free 20 GB pack of sound effects: www.sonniss.com/gameaudiogdc2017/ Not sure what's in there but I'm sure the download is worth it.

    Anyone here who'd like to make me a unique old-ish female head? A texture edit would suffice as long as it doesn't look too similar to a PC head

    Updated my SWTOR Style Training Sabers mod to fix a bug on Matale Grounds. If you had this mod installed, please uninstall it and install the new version. Sorry for the inconvenience :/

    Just noticed that I passed the 1000 posts. Took me only 2.5 years even though I feel like I've been part of this community for much longer :)

      It's very well done. Thank the Force Han didn't turn out to be Force-sensitive. I like the fact that he only has an ace in his sleeve. From KotOR references I saw Classic design Pazaak cardax and of course this mysterious Revan worshipper who somehow got Revan's mask.

  24. Kexikus

    Happy life-day everyone :)

    Made a tiny fix on one alpha channel of both my HQ Stars and Nebulas mods

      What did it fix?

    2. Revanator

      Revanator

      Is it worth a re-download?

    3. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      There was a visible cut-off in the standard nebula texture instead of a smooth blending. I had never noticed that before, so I don't know if it's really worth to download^^
