  1. Happy New Year, everyone!

  2. I still think "Meetra Surik" is such a dumb name

      I think Sith Holocron is a dumb name.

      :D I don't dislike it, but I grew up with a red cat named Mitra and in dutch (my native language) that's pronounced just like Meetra.
      Surik is a (very small) village in Iran.

  3. Who was Mira's father?

      Well that's probably restored by TSLRCM, right? Who knows what its origins are. Could be it was based on some idea that got cut early on.

      avellone said he wouldn't answer that question unless he gets to make kotor 3 (source)

      Thanks @zbyl2!

      If I had to guess, it'd be Canderous (I would not really like this), as far as I know he is the only one who kreia repeatedly describes as a beast/predator. 

  4. Modded TSL on mobile is pretty impressive, imagine showing it to my 15 year younger self!

    Thanks to all modders on this site! 

  5. Right now playing through Jedi: Fallen Order. I think it's suprisingly fun! The combat is a bit crummy and the enemies track too much, but I'm enjoying my time.

      Easily the best game to have come out since EA got the rights. It's a real shame that Project Ragtag from Visceral was cancelled though.

  6. Well I for one can't wait for all the new 36-hour critical analyses by all the Youtube "skeptics" with an anthropomorphised animal or object in their logo. Gotta earn that dough!

      Does that apply to the M478 documentary?

  7. I do not like The Force Unleashed 2

    1. Mephiles550

      Mephiles550

      I got it on steam for 2 bucks. Must've been a year since I got it

      Still haven't played it.

      From what I've heard and briefly seen, TFU2 is basically a stormtrooper slaughter simulator.

      Pretty much, that and take down an AT-ST with the same quick time event over and over and over (x100).

  8. I like The Force Unleashed

      I think The Force Unleashed is overrated tbh. Gameplay was fresh for 2008, but the story, though well-designed, was a bit linear.

    4. Mephiles550

      Mephiles550

      I like The Force Unleashed, too! I think it's a pretty decent game. I always enjoy playing it.

      Doesn't hold a candle to the old Star Wars classics, but it's alright. If you want a fun new experience playing it, download the vader mod for it that lets you play as vader throughout the whole campaign.

  9. That's too bad. Just goes to show that "It's a mod" is not a legal defense.

      @Squall Lionhart VP's theory is that EA outsourced this to LucasFilm as a way to avoid more negative backlash from the star wars community, which makes ample sense.

      Apathy is death... I mean Apeiron is dead. Finally nothing prevents us from giving KotOR proper modernization without removing its magic.

  10. Looking at all the production troubles, Solo was way better than it had any right to be.

      I'm not a native English speaker either, it's clearly a (admittedly overused) figure of speech. A simple search would have shown you that.

      Apparently I should resist my urges to make jokes about figures of speech (it never conveys well via text). Sorry about that.

      No harm done! It just came across as passive-aggressive rather than a joke.

  11. TSL comes out. Not liked by some because the previous installment followed Star Wars story beats to a tee. This one is more unexpected and deconstructs some of the lore of the Force. Over the years the hate dies down and it's now considered good. TLJ comes out. Not liked by some because the previous installment followed Star Wars story beats to a tee. This one is more unexpected and deconstructs some of the lore of the Force. (We are now here).

      Oh, and let's respect others here and use PM to continue the discussion if you wish. We don't need to bombard 1Leonard or anyone else with notifications of this.

      Well, your true on some points, I did not expect Earth in my Star Wars movie. Guess I should have lowered my expectations from a movie set in a galaxy far far away. Silly me...

    4. Revanator

      Revanator

      Shouldn't even expect a good movie? Are you hearing yourself?

  12. The new tools are amazing! Glad I still check in from time to time. I feel a certain *itch* coming up again :)

  13. Does anyone here have some documentation saved on how UV mapping works on KotOR models?

    1. DarthParametric

      DarthParametric

      How do you mean? How it is stored in the MDL file, or something else? There's nothing special in general terms.

    2. Fair Strides

      Fair Strides

      Nothing special like DP says, but a quick run-down is this:

       

      Each vertex has a UV position (like 0.99 0.99) which is an XY point on the texture.

       

      Each vertex in a face has one of those UV coordinates, and the space that face uses is calculated between those three XY coordinates.

       

      Lastly, each of those coordinates is a percentage between 0.0 and 1.0, which is why the texture doesn't always benefit from being upscaled.

  14. I always feel a little sad when I finish TSL :(

      Knowing that there's no continuation?

      in a perfect world...

  15. Uninstalled Steam and have stopped gaming for a while. Will still be around here periodically. Peace

  16. Anyone have any documentation on creating new area models?

    1. Sithspecter

      Sithspecter

      Uh, I've been meaning to do something like this. I have an old tutorial from Quanon if you want it. If you PM me I'm happy to answer questions you might have.

  17. Finished Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal yesterday, what a journey it was.

    1. Salk

      Salk

      Have you played the EE version or the original? There are many excellent modifications for both.

    2. 1Leonard

      1Leonard

      Played the EE version. And yes, as far as I know, most if not all mods are compatible with it. I'm going to take a break from infinity engine games though, played through Planescape: Torment, Baldur's Gate I and II one after the other. I'll certainly revisit them though! And I still have to play the Icewind Dale series sometimes.

  18. The amount of content and depth in BG2 is mind-boggling, wil be playing this for a long, long time. A great sequel to a great game.

  19. Upcoming Revan figure in the Black series is looking pretty good.

    2. Canderis

      Canderis

      Did that just make him canon?

    3. 1Leonard

      1Leonard

      No. It's a fan's choice. Action figures have never made anything canon. Currently only new stories have the power to do that. I'm looking at the new episodes of Star Wars Rebels for that

  20. I hope 2016 will be a golden age for KotOR Modding :)

    1. VarsityPuppet

      It is looking to be :D

      It is my impression that we are currently in a new golden age of KotOR modding!

    3. Hassat Hunter

      Hassat Hunter

      Expect TSLRCM 1.9, 2.0 and 3.214 ;)

  21. Just finished Planescape: Torment for the first time ever! What a great game...

  22. Just saw TFA a second time. It differs more from IV than I initially thought (please don't start fighting again guys ;) )

    1. Domino5555

      Domino5555

      Don't worry. I enjoyed it with my brothers and grandparents.

  23. Apparently someone we all love had a cameo in TFA!

  25. Some very hard work is about to pay off...
