    GOD I just died, I had no idea Bastila mispronounces "phonemes" in K1! Hilarious!

      Awesome! Though I want to see it actually in use, not a presentation.

      Someone on this very site is working on something like this. I've been providing this person with the sound files of most of the major characters in TSL for this very purpose.

      Thank you so much bead-v! I had tons of problems with my custom models receiving fog when they shouldn't. I'll update that mod ASAP :)

    It's confirmed, swinging doors work in kotor! Test door made by JCarter426.

      What's funny is that before JCarter started hammering this out during a conversation I had with him, I had no clue that completely new doors was possible. That, to me, is the true discovery.

    College is really keeping me busy.. I'm sure I'll be able to find some free time after I get used to it, but now I sometimes even forget to eat...

    Hey NWmax users! If you import a model with a skin and move the aurorabase, does the skin follow the bones or does it move twice the distance? Is this a known issue or just something I'm getting?

      Also, why not move the base?

    3. DarthParametric

      DarthParametric

      The base needs to be at 0,0,0 unless you want screwiness to occur.

       

      Transforms in Max will bite you. You should not be moving any part of a skinned mesh at the object level generally, unless you are prepared to do a Reset X-Form and collapse the stack. Stick to moving verts where possible.

    4. bead-v

      bead-v

      NWmax is supposed to allow moving the aurorabase. If it doesn't in some case, it's a bug. But thanks for the info :) Anyway, I seem to have fixed it, this command did the job: $.skin.always_deform = false

  7. bead-v

    Has anyone ever had gmax/3dsmax produce an ascii with more verts than tverts?

      Yes I know about the tvert > vert cases, but I didn't know about vert > tvert. Thank you for the answer! :)

      Here's a quick example I whipped up:

      Generally yes, try to keep this place going and make sure we have the funds to host all this stuff. 100TBs of traffic this last month :)

      I bet Tyvokka could make a killer KotOR mod if he ever chose to do so. :P

      I second LDR's comment! Thanks for keeping the site alive Tyvokka.

    Okay, does anyone know of a model that uses the 'detonate' emitter controller?

      I should think the grenades and the droids would...

    3. ndix UR

      ndix UR

      Yeah I didn't find any in K1 either. Mostly what I've seen about the detonate controller is from NWN, referring to how it often shows up in the key section but not the values section.

    4. bead-v

      bead-v

      Then maybe the best solution is just to get rid of it. But I don't quite understand where you got its number from, considering it's completely unused

    Is anybody else having problems with xat right now?

      I'm on Team Hssiss chat and yeah, someone's asked me a question 3 times. I've answered them all, and they don't seem to know.

    2. bead-v

      bead-v

      Well, lucky you, I can't even get on to the chat.. it's getting better though, now at least the page loads...

    3. bead-v

      It seems it fully works now again..

      First I've heard of this. I ought to scan for a WIP thread.

    3. bead-v

      bead-v

      There is an old one, I will post there again once I'm closer to release.

  12. bead-v

    I can't think of a K1 model with a danglymesh, any help?

    1. DarthParametric

      DarthParametric

      Half the female player heads have danglymesh hair bits.

      In 5 years, Justin Bieber will be Michael Jackson.

      Lol, I'm not sure the author of the comment would agree.. =P

    If gmax was a person I'd be getting massive dark side points today!

      If gmax were a person it would have achieved dark side mastery a long time ago :)

      Congrats. A question: have you ever considered doing a KOTOR version of your Galaxy Map Fix?

  16. bead-v

    I'm looking through your Toolbox and man, you should've written some tutorials, I'm learning new stuff from this! Kudos!

    1. JCarter426

      JCarter426

      Oh, thanks, glad you enjoyed it. :)

       

      I wish I had written some tutorials too because I don't even remember how half of it works anymore.

    In other news, smoothing between meshes now works as it should without the need to rotate anything beforehand :) Now just to apply the logic to the smoothing group calculations...

  21. bead-v

    I was still able to so your message on team hssiss that you'll be back around 2 =P

     

    Anyways, next time maybe use VMs for this? =P

  22. bead-v

    Did you manage to find someone for the screens yesterday, or do you still need me for it?

  23. bead-v

    argh, VP beat me to it, lol =P

  24. bead-v

    Can you come to team hssiss? VP and I are discussing Telos, so it'd be great if you can join the discussion..

  25. bead-v

    I saw you thanking Doctor just as I was about to send him a PM asking about it, so I'm guessing you know why we were made to premium members?
