    That's because the cutscene uses a workaround to avoid using proper stunt animations. It spawns placeable sitters on the bikes, not creatures. Only the global scripts have included source. All module-specific scripts are binary-only and need to be decompiled. Use DeNCS for that.

    TSLRCM does hard overwrites. Install it first. K2CP (and pretty much any TSL mod made since it came out) requires TSLRCM as a basis.

    Since we are airing grievances, another thing is that the activation area for the notification icon seems tiny. Maybe it's not an issue on a phone where you put your finger over the whole thing, but with a mouse it seems like you have to be pixel perfect dead center to get it to register a click.
  4. DarthParametric
    Yeah as well as that, there really needs to be some sort of "collapse header" option. It's pretty and all, but it is obnoxiously huge and takes up far too much real estate. Something like this is what I am suggesting: Even then, there's still so much dead space below it. I get that everything is made for phones these days, but not everybody reads the site on a 5" screen.

    Don't install an old version of Java (ever, on anything). Grab the latest. DeNCS works fine with it on Win10.
  6. DarthParametric
    I'll take that as a no then. The engine only deals with binary (compiled) scripts, NCS. What I posted was source, plain text (NSS). The game won't do anything with that. You have to compile it first. You can do it via KOTOR Tool, or directly use NWNSSCOMP via commandline. There are also a few other frontends around, like the KOTOR Script Tool (check the Tools section in Downloads).
  7. DarthParametric
    You compiled the script I take it? Put the NCS and UTP in the Override (or module)?
  8. DarthParametric
    Your script resref has too many characters. The maximum filename character count is 16.
  9. DarthParametric
    Works fine here.
  10. DarthParametric
    It won't work in a module you've already been in. The original version of the object will be stored in your save file.
  11. DarthParametric
    No. And if it's the object's OnHeartbeat then it stays OBJECT_SELF.
  12. DarthParametric
    It's a creature script type. OnHeartbeat should work and reapply it even if the party re-enter a module on subsequent occasions.
  13. DarthParametric
    It would need to be scripted. There are a couple of ways to go about it, depending on the circumstances. Could be included in the object's OnSpawn perhaps, or if it is a continually revisited area it may need to be done in the module's OnEnter to ensure it stays up. For the former, perhaps something like void main(){ effect eVFX = EffectVisualEffect(VFX_DUR_SHIELD_BLUE_01); ApplyEffectToObject(DURATION_TYPE_PERMANENT, eVFX, OBJECT_SELF); } For the latter, you'd replace the OBJECT_SELF reference with an object declaration/GetObjectByTag.

    If you don't decompile the vanilla binary model alongside the vanilla binary walkmesh then you won't retain the proper room links in your ASCII, hence why you can't enter the room in your compiled version. You'll need to start from scratch. Extract the WOKs from BIFs -> models.bif -> Walkmesh. Put the appropriate WOK alongside the MDL/MDX when decompiling with MDLEdit. It will store the appropriate room link information in the ASCII model for KMax to properly re-export later.

    All the "legacypc" version is is the non-bastardised version, i.e. the same as the original CD or GOG versions. The holograms work fine in those. As was the case previously, I suspect the problem this user has is actually the TOR uniform addon to this mod in conjunction with an integrated GPU. That's the only instance where holograms get rendered without the effect that I can recall, due to the normal maps (for which there is a fix supplied with the other mod).

    If you mean they just appear like regular NPCs instead of blue and transparent, then that's not the mod, that's your hardware. You have an integrated GPU?
  17. DarthParametric
    It's questionable whether you'd actually get shadows that dark with such an apparently overcast sky, but the new version is certainly much more appropriately moody looking.
  18. DarthParametric
    Random aesthetic mods don't meet the criteria for inclusion in the Community Patches. We try and steer clear of that sort of thing unless it's a case of a pre-existing vanilla asset (like swapping "lite" models for higher poly/higher res texture versions), or there's some fault in the vanilla asset (like broken lightmaps, model issues, etc.).
  19. DarthParametric
    OK, I think this is done, at least as far as K1CP changes go. I changed the Dodonna backwards walk back to the vanilla version. I'm not keen on it, but it's less egregious than the hacked moonwalking version to get her in the proper position.
  20. DarthParametric
    That's a missing Visual C++ redistributable binary. Try installing this - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784
  21. DarthParametric
    Yeah I'm not changing that. It would be weird to have half a dozen medals magically appear out of thin air, and there's no practical way to actually show the others getting medals pinned on. You'll just have to imagine the others got theirs afterwards. Besides, the entire point is that the player is special, so it's only natural the focus is on them.
  22. DarthParametric
    As mentioned at various points, self-illum is a trimesh setting, so it requires editing the model. Depending on what you are doing, you might get away with just editing an ASCII in a text editor, but if you need to make physical alterations to the mesh/es then you'll need to edit the model in Max/GMax in conjunction with the KOTORMax script.
  23. DarthParametric
    Editing models (either creatures or levels) will require Max/GMax with the KOTORMax script and MDLEdit. Although on the creature side you could conceivably mash something together purely by editing ASCII models in a text editor.
  24. DarthParametric
    I'll say. So many replacement body parts I could harvest. If anyone knows of a secret Island-like setup, let me know. I'll also happily take a ScarJo clone.
  25. DarthParametric
    I think they are both actually placeables. Or at least there is a placeable Kreia corpse. But there is also a stunt Kreia creature in the module as well, so I don't know which one they used (or whether TSLRCM made any changes).
