Hi everyone, so I've started my Kotor 2 playthrough and I've remembered just how large the HUD can be. Is there a mod to reduce the size of the HUD? I am aware there is a mod on the Steam Workshop that does this. But everyone knows not to mix workshop mods with non workshop mods. Does anyone know if there is one that can be downloaded and installed manually? I've searched but can't seem to find one. Here is a link to the one on the workshop, so you know what I mean by smaller HUD. Steam Workshop::Smaller HUD (steamcommunity.com) Thanks for your help.

Yeah I have already encountered a few things, bit they didn't really seem to bother me. Such as the Vulkar sub base not making an appearance, or there being no audio when you speak to companions and ask them about the other companions. However that last issue I've always thought to simply be because there was no voice acting and you have to just read.

appearance.2da

I know, however som of the mods I already had installed, such as retextures with animations I remember being a bit complicated to install. So I didn't want to have to reinstall from fresh again. I'll give that a try though. Alright So I tried removing those files, nothing. So then I tried reverting the appearance.2da to the one I used before installing the Mekel companion mod, which seems to of fixed the issue. Guess I just can't have Mekel as a companion.

I've got so many mods downloaded but I honestly couldn't tell you exactly all of the ones that are currently installed. As half of them are mods from my last playthrough a few years ago. Though I checked my override folder. There are a few files that sare named P_JoleeBB but none of them are that file with either an mdl or mdx at the end. Maybe that's the cause?

So in this case, it is not crashing as soon as the scene with him fighting the Katarns starts. That scene is playing out just fine, though his model doesn't appear and he is just completely invisible. It crashes once he starts to talk to you. But not right away, rather he gets through probably 1-2 sentences, then it crashes. Here's the appearance.2da appearance.2da

So I've come across a strange bug. I'm on Kashyyyk and have gotten to the Shadowlands where you meet Jolee. But for some reason he is completely invisible, then when he starts talking to you, he'll get through 1 or 2 sentences and the game will the CTD. I'm not sure what could be causing this. I tried uninstalling any mods that alter his appearance, but no luck. Anyone ever run into anything similar to this?

Yep, I read the PM The Frozen One sent me so all good. I did think the mod was stolen, but its been confirmed its not. So all good.

Right, I see what you're saying. I suppose in that case it's not piracy, but still it is a selfish thing to do. And I know what you mean about the workshop. Before I gave up on the workshop I did find a way to make workshop mods compatible with non workshop mods. But way too much of a hassle and took up extra storage space.

That's straight up piracy. Was it reported and if so, did twitch ban the person who did that?

Prebuilt installations? As in, the full game with the mods already installed? If so, not only is that theft of the mod authors work, but that would be piracy of the game right?

Right, well I've already done it. So we'll see what happens. Pretty disgraceful if valve doesn't care. It goes against their T&C I'm certain.

Right, I'll ask the steam uploader to remove the mod. If they don't or don't reply within a reasonable amount of time I will contact the original uploader.

Again, I was checking out the mods here on DS and I recognised a mod I saw on the KotOR 2 steam workshop. I believe it may be a stolen reupload. The uploader seems to be different on each site, and the original DS version is a KotOR 1 mod, while workshop is KotOR 2, even the screenshots are the same for each upload. The original uploader here on DS specifically say NO REUPLOADS without permission. Here is a link to the original here on DS and the reupload on steam. DS: Two Colored Lightsaber - Double Bladed - Mods - Deadly Stream Steam Workshop: Steam Workshop::Chaos Lightsaber (steamcommunity.com)

Thanks for the clarification. I have edited the post to remove the link. I only posted it so it could be checked and verified.

So I was searching for some texture / graphical mods. Where I stumbled upon a mod pack being hosted on a Russian website. This pack seems to include mods from various different mod authors. Does anyone know if these mods stolen or if the uploader received permission to reupload these mods in this mod pack? If they are stolen I certainly won't be downloading.

After following different guides on getting Kotor 1 to run in ultrawide 3440x1440 I have finally gotten the game to work. However I have noticed that the UI seems to be stretched. From what I have seen, no one else that has gotten the game to run in ultrawide has this issue. It's not a big deal, I can certainly play with it. But I am curious as to why it's happening and if it is possible to fix, find a fix. As you can see, the outline for the character picture is stretched, as well as the UI icon in the top right have the black boxes stretched out from the the icons.

Aww damn it. Hopefully I can keep mine up as I did this while ago.

Thank you so much for checking out the video and for the feedback. Yes I thought people would say that about the repeated scenes. The reason I did that though was because they only repeated during the chorus of the song. (Part that repeats) So I thought that by repeating those scenes at that time would make sense. As for the "storyline" the title is Regret and through the video the clips are overall appearing in the sequence you would see them in a play through, signifying that this is happening over the course of the game. In the song the lyrics go "I hate feeling like this, I'm so tired of trying to fight this, I'm asleep and all I dream of, Is waking to you" This happens as the PC wakes up where he gets up and Bastila is there, signifying that the PC is dreaming of waking up to Bastila. "And the more I hide I realize I'm slowly losing you" Signifying that the PC wasn't there to help Bastila against Malak and the doors shut, signifying that the PC has "lost" her. "I don't wanna live, I don't wanna breathe, les I feel you next to me" During this you see Bastila weak and destruction except for when the PC and Bastila are walking together. Signifying that separated the PC and Bastila are weak. "You take the pain I feel" Here the PC and Bastila are sparring, foreshadowing what is to come. "I don't wanna sleep, I don't wanna dream, cause my dreams don't comfort me, the way you make me feel" Here the PC is restlessly sleeping and having a vision meaning sleep troubles the PC. Where he then sees Bastila, who comforts the PC. You can then see the sith armada, signifying they are winning. "I hate living without you" Here the PC is facing Bastila, signifying that the PC hates having to face Bastila rather then have her by his side. "But my demons lay in waiting, tempting me away" Here the PC is having a vision of the confrontation between Revan and Bastila, signifying that the PC's true identity of Revan is still present and tempts him to reclaim the title of the dark lord. (you'll understand why by the end) "I'll never wake up without an overdose of you" The PC is won't wake up without Bastila. "Waking up to you never felt so real" The Republic is being destroyed because Bastila has turned to the dark side and the only thing the PC can do to save it is to kill Bastila so she can't use her battle meditation The PC finally wakes up and looks around looking for Bastila but she is nowhere to be found as the PC killed her to save the Republic (notice the Jedi robe) as every time the PC was "waking up to Bastila throughout the video he was simply dreaming it. The reason for the dark side and Revan's identity tempting the PC to the dark side was because if the PC had of turned to the dark side and reclaimed the title of Dark Lord, he would of been able to save Bastila. (like Anakin's reason for initially turning. Now that you know all that, try re-watching the video to see what you thin of it now. ​

Hey guys, I'm just making this post to let you know that I have created a Kotor music video titled Regret and I was wondering if you all could check it out and give me some feedback. Any constructive criticism is GREATLY appreciated. Thank you all very much for reading. PS. See if you all can figure out the "storyline" of the music video. *Hint* - It's related to the title.
