  1. Hey, DS can actually remember my password now! Sweet!

  2. TFW I return to KOTOR and the forum after a long absence and the top news post is the same...

    1. VarsityPuppet

      VarsityPuppet

      There's just not a lot of news coming out

  3. I Fourgott that today was the Fourth.

    1. Sith Holocron

      Sith Holocron

      Now it's Revenge of the Fifth!

  4. Never expected to be doing this, but as one-half of a homework assignment for Game Design class, I just ended up writing about the different functional and cosmetic attributes that you can modify in TSL's character creation.

    1. jc2

      jc2

      hhahahah!!!

  5. Oh wow... I just realized that the TSL playthrough I finished a few days ago had been in progress since August 2015...

    1. jc2

      jc2

      ahahha that's interesting

      DeadMan

      I still didn't finished a playtrough which I started in 2013...

  6. Now working on my dedicated Impossible Difficulty playthrough. It's turning out to be easier than I expected. Blog for it should be coming soon.

      Oh, I see. Never mind my ramblings then!

      If you and others think it would be entertaining, I could start over and record a video version instead. Only did most of Taris so far, which took just 2 and a half hours, so not too much loss.

      You could use video to punctuate portions that just text won't provide. Small clips. There are plenty of LP's out there. Doing a mix might be more unique. However, the choice should be yours as you're the fella doing it! ;)

  7. Well, my first foray into modding isn't going so well...

      It's the modding gods cursing you for not starting with a lightsaber. All KOTOR modding younglings must start with a saber mod.

    3. Hassat Hunter

      Hassat Hunter

      I never made a saber mod. Or anything before TSLRCM.

      @DarthParametric wait what? I started with uti, tga, utc.. nobody told me this!!

  8. I mostly like Kaidon Jorn's SLM mod... but when it adds a boss that can heal >300 health with one Death Field cast, and sometimes casts it twice in a round, it gets to be a bit much...

      Yeah, it adds several bosses that are waaaaay more powerful than anything you encounter ingame, which feels totally out of place to me.

    3. superSzym

      Some kind of UTC editing would fix this issue.

    4. Eauxps I. Fourgott

      Eauxps I. Fourgott

      I found one way to work around it... incapacitate the OP bosses using mod-added Force powers that can't be resisted ;)

  9. The Cubs won. Trump won. We can no longer rely on the established order of things...

      And a few weeks ago the Vols beat the Gators in college football for the first time in forever.

    2. HK-47

      HK-47

      The end times are here.

  10. If you think you might enjoy reading the chronicles of someone else playing KOTOR, my blog now has one such story.

  11. I hate rakghouls with a fiery passion.

    1. ZM90

      ZM90

      Is it Impossible Difficulty Rakghouls?

    2. Eauxps I. Fourgott

      Eauxps I. Fourgott

      Well, yes, but I hated them even back when I was playing on easy.

  12. Playing with Impossible difficulty does have its annoying times... like when two times in a row I die within five minutes to a single rakghoul. It's really killed my enthusiasm for playing KOTOR at the moment.

      Protip for the Sith in the base: bring T3 and use his stun ray.

    3. Eauxps I. Fourgott

      Eauxps I. Fourgott

      Hm, I believe that last time I ended up changing the difficulty to a non-impossible level for the Sith Governor. Well, for this time, we'll have to wait and see whether I can get past this rakghoul first!

    4. ZM90

      ZM90

      You're welcome :P

  13. Summer's already over for me... college starts back up today!

  14. I said two months ago that I might start modding, and I haven't gotten anywhere yet... I get the feeling this is going to always be the case.

    1. Sith Holocron

      Sith Holocron

      Start small and go from there.

    2. Purifier

      Purifier

      I agree with SH. Taking on large projects by yourself, that takes a lot of time, will tend to overwhelm you at times. Small projects with less time consuming effort is the key.

    3. Eauxps I. Fourgott

      Eauxps I. Fourgott

      Thanks guys. The thing is that I haven't even gotten as far as looking at tutorials or anything yet...

  15. Spring semester of college finished! I think that without any school for the summer, I might try to start modding.

    1. Fair Strides

      Fair Strides

      Yay! I get to start a Writing and a Math class this summer at the community college... :)

       

      Been doing a 2-credit Career Exploration thing for this term.

  16. My DeadlyStream blog has now been started! First entry is a review for SH of an old M4-78 mod.

    1. Sith Holocron

      Sith Holocron

      Thanks for playing it!

  17. Anybody here play Civ 3 or 4, but not particularly well? I'm thinking of trying a multiplayer Play by Email (or PM, as the case may be) game.

    1. Domino5555

      Domino5555

      I sometimes play Civilization 4.

  18. Now expanding my mod (installing) horizons to Skyrim. The presence of various utilities for that purpose helps out a lot.

      I usually don't have many problems with skyrim. But I also don't go crazy with mods. I might try playing again once Chesko releases his new mod.

    3. Fair Strides

      Fair Strides

      Xuul: What's Chesko's new mod, and what has he/she done in the past?

    4. Xuul

      Xuul

      He makes survival mods for Skyrim: Primary needs, camping, hypothermia/winter survival. I've done videos on them before, they are all brilliant. http://skyrimsurvival.com/ if you are at all intrested

  19. Think I might have finally fixed my computer-crashing problems! Haven't tried KOTOR2 again yet, though, since I got myself a bunch of new games for Christmas.

    1. Sith Holocron

      Sith Holocron

      Best of luck for you with your new games and KOTOR2!

    2. Eauxps I. Fourgott
  20. With KOTOR2 reliably crashing my computer, my statement that "if I could play only one of the KOTORs again, it would be KOTOR1" is really being put to the test...

    1. TheDarkChocolateJedi

      TheDarkChocolateJedi

      Heh, you speak the truth!

    2. Domino5555

      Domino5555

      Do you have TSLRCM?

    3. Eauxps I. Fourgott

      Eauxps I. Fourgott

      Yeah, but what difference does it make?

  21. Everybody's speculating on Luke's absence from the trailers for the new trilogy, but my question is: What about Leia and the droids?

    1. Rinku

      Rinku

      I thought we've ween seen a glimpse of Leia a few times. I feel like the droids act as some form of messenger between wherever Luke is located and the rest.

    2. Eauxps I. Fourgott

      Eauxps I. Fourgott

      At any rate, I don't think we've seen Leia any significant amount. My point was kind of that Luke's not the only absentee...

  22. Compatibility test for K1R and BOS:SR finished. I'll be posting the results as soon as I can find out how to tag spoilers.

      Nice! Looking forward to reading your report.
