Yeah I think I might just stick with the Mac driver and just lower the brightness enough to where the blue tint isn't visible.

You could just use the adddarkside 100 to turn yourself as dark as possible which will make your companions darkside. Just do what I do, take those certain moments as being lightside to get influence. In this video I do that 3 times for Bao-Dur :/  

Yeah, I haven't found any way to make it better :/ The Mac Driver is sill blue. I looked up solutions but I can't find anything.

Edit 12 and a half hours later: So I can adjust the brightness in game for some reason when I use the mac driver, but the blue tint is still really annoying.

I'll look up ways to remove the blue tint maybe there's a solution on the wineskin site or something.

Edit: should I enable both Mac Driver and the x11? Or just one at a time? Also I guess the ColorSync utility is for images. Not the actual screen :/

Hmm, I'll try bot solutions, and maybe check if there's a way to remove the tint from the screen.

Edit: If you go to the ColorSync Utility app, would that help because there's an option to adjust the blueness of the screen?

Well just discovered that Intel integrated gpus like mine do not support those effects at all. Mac system is not related. That explains why you can enable them in kotor1. 

 

I believe there could be a possibility to set them on your system since you have a dedicated graphic card, but with my computer I can not be much help.

Hmm I guess so. Also it's kinda weird with my graphics card because he normal textures in kotor 1 were perfect. But once I got the 2012 texture packs by XediiWars, most of the textures were transparent. So I had to go into every .tga file and remove the alpha channel layer of the transparency for the texture. Now everything looks fine for the game. But now I'm confused as to why there aren't any transparent textures in kotor 2 with the same mods. I would think they would have they sme problem, but they're perfectly fine

Edit: Well isn't this awkward, you were helping me on both this site and the porting team site I still can't get the brightness to change.

Yeah I've recommended several things to modders . Would it be possible to remove the kick for inactivity function?

What graphic card do you have?

I have an ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro

Hmm weird. I can enable frame buffer effects on kotor 1 through the steam version.

It's weird as to why you can't enable frame buffer effects. I read that it was wine, but with the previous version of steam and the game, I could enable it just fine.

Oh alright, I didn't know that. When in-game they still look like the vanilla version, maybe I just have to take them out of the override I guess.

Yes, with the old port of the game from Steam the cutscenes didn't work. And I got the game already running error too. That's why I've been having so many problems. But I've finally fixed it all

and several others. If you need any links I can hook you up with the mods

I even installed a lot of high-res texture packs like 4k Atton, 2K T3-M4, OTE, 2013 texture packs, etc... The game super smoothly and it's wonderful. I'm surprised too because my Mac is from around 2004 or so.

Alright so I set the virtual machine to 1920x1200. Then in-game I had the option between 1600x1200, 1280x1024, and the other two small ones. Then, I set the resolution to the second highest (1280x1024) and used the uniws patcher to set it to 1920x1200.

Update: So now i have the resolutions of 1280x1024 and 1600x1200

Okay so i set the virtual machine to 1920x1200, but whenn i go in game and select 1600x1200 or the 1280x1024 it's kinda buggy. Whether I go back into game i can only see the corner and what-not

Edit: Wow got it. Thanks to you and the help of Xuul also. I'll be sure to give you a shoutout in my next walkthrough video

SH any suggestions then?

Yes I've installed that one. Is there anyway that I could get an .exe with 1280x960? Idk how it'd work, but if I get that then I could patch it from there or something.

Tha

Hi Rece, referring your first problem, the cause was surely the swkotor2.exe. In fact recently the executable has been updated and may cause the exact issue you had. Using the .exe you download with Squ1zzy file, usually fix the problem.

 

About resolution: that's quite strange since you should at least have 1680x1050 option available. What machine are you using?

 

However for now just try to set it at 1024x768, close game and patch it at 1920x1200 (Remember to modify swkotor.ini)

Thanks for the reply! It's weird because before when steam was working before all. These problems, I had up to 1600x1200. But now it's not working, would you sending me a copy of your .exe change anything? If I were to put yours and replace mine, go In and see if 1280x960 is in there?

Also I tried patching it in 1920x1200 with the 1024x768 earlier but it didn't work.

I've been playing this on my Mac for several years now. I'm even doing a walk through of the game. Unfortunately last night my game stopped working for some reason. Every time I tried opening the game up it would say that it was already running, even though it wasn't. I tried many different trouble shooting tips but nothing was working. Last night I decided to redo this installation last night. I stayed up till 3 and have yet to try the new result. I'll update on my progress as soon as I get on my computer.

Edit: Still nothing, I'm going to try to make a new steam account.

Edit 2: NOTHING IS WORKING> This is really annoying me. Every time I try to launch the game it says that it is already running! Seriously nothing is working. I tried on a new steam account, new game, nothing.

Yet another edit: I might have got it working.

Edit #50,000,000: Okay so when i use the swkotor2.exe instead of the original, i only have the options for 1024x768 and 800x600 (My native resolution is 1920x1200) Why do I not have the option to set 1280x960?

This is a huge favor to ask, but would anyone be willing to convert every .bik movie from kotor 2 to a .mov format? I have TSLRCM so I guess there's also a .bik file for that, but since I play on a mac, .bik files don't work. If they were to be converted to .mov, then they'd work in-game. I'm doing a walkthrough on YouTube, and it's missing so much without the movies playing. Also, I would ask FS to do this, but he's done so much for me that I can't really ask anymore favors from him tbh. The overall file size of the movies are 1.88 GB, pretty dang hefty.

Edit: I might have a friend who will do it. I'll inform you all tomorrow.

I'll beta test or anything like that VP :3

Do you play on a Mac or PC?

The link is currently down. VS Is really busy, he works with BuzzFeed. There will be a new link sometime soon

I'm out of ideas. I would say start the game and see if you notice anything mentioned in the readme that was added to the game, but I don't want to risk possibly damaging your game. :/
