  1. Can anyone help me out with a Kotor Tool problem?- http://deadlystream.com/forum/topic/6238-kotor-tool-problem/

      I've added more information to the topic. There is also a second error message that makes me feel that it isn't a registry problem. Be sure to check that out.

      It’s just that the fact that you need to give game paths every time you boot KTool sounds like a registry issue to me. I’m pretty sure my KTool has never actually worked with manually inputted game paths. I’m not saying it’s the whole problem (although Windows works in mysterious ways), but it could be part of it.

    4. N-DReW25

      N-DReW25

      Having to give game paths every time I boot KTool has only appeared after I reinstalled it. I got the same error messages before this without having to set directories, I uninstalled and reinstalled KTool to fix this but it didn't work and simply added the path requirement on top of the errors. The second error displayed in the topic mentions something "Microsoft .NET Framework" and "could not find 'C:\chitin.key'"

      @Domino5555 "Hey, you know what their problem is", "Your right, if I was a mom *Drum Sound Effect* this would be kind of shocking...JUST CALL ME DADDY" and "Wumboligy the study of Wunbo! It's first-grade SponegBob!"...At this point, I can safely say Cathalan is a "wound in the force". It slowly kills all who dare play it.

  4. Remember when people used to download a hundred mods that aren't theirs and compile them into one big mod pack and claim it was all their own work?

    Well in 2019, people compile a list of up to 49 mods and upload it to the internet as a "Free to Use Master list" claiming you can use other peoples mods in your own mod as if they where a modders resource. And of course, this was found on the Nexus.

     

    https://www.nexusmods.com/kotor/mods/1266?tab=files

     

    Here is a list of the modders included in this list, keep in mind that there is a 90% chance more than one of your mods were listed:

      The mods used in the list are exclusive to the Nexusmods website which most likely reinforces DPs statement about Nexus users not even knowing what DS even is. In the Nexus' guidelines, is there is no way for anyone to link or mention DS to try to boost newcomers?

      In my credits, I always attribute Deadlystream.com for the community and hosting my mods, so there is a way to indirectly advertise, and, as you can see, nexusmods is not all that well monitered for its size, so we could probably get away with direct advertisement but I, personally, will not do as such.

      If DS wants more traffic then that's Tyvokka's job to resolve. It's not really up to modders to be going on a "recruitment drive".

  5. So I've been reading some of the gaming articles on the Kotor 2 Switch DLC and thus far they've made no mention of how the DLC is based upon the TSLRCM mod and they word their articles as if Apsyr did ALL the work behind the restorations 🤦‍♂️

      I think the worst part of reading about these Kotor 2 Switch DLC posts/articles is seeing how mad everyone is getting over how save games without the DLC cannot work with the DLC content once it's installed.

      And the entire time I'm just thinking "Poor people, if only they knew how this works"

      @djh269 Revan wouldn't of known Zez, Vash or Kavar in K1. I 'could' make a third option for this but until porting becomes slightly easier I wouldn't be able to pull it off myself. 

       

      @Sith Holocron One of the many consequences of not playing TSL for a while.

    3. jc2

      jc2

      Would it make sense for the masters who so adamantly opposed Revan and the Mandalorian Wars, be at that battle and that ceremony? Does the timing make sense? Does the motivation of the characters make sense? Would they be there supporting Revan? I don't think they would. They clearly blamed Revan for many things despite his redemption, I would argue their bitterness kept them from participating in a Republic military ceremony... their presence would not be required.

    4. djh269

      djh269

      I know what you mean jc2, but I believe the more hardcore believers in the order wouldn't of been at the ceremony, especially Vrook, but I think the more liberal jedi like Vandar would definitely be there. 

      But he did save the galaxy so there is that. 

  7. Whose ready for some Star Wars ANIME?!?!

      Well, there is a precedent for this, The Animatrix, but it's fairly old (for many people) so I don't know if many remember it. I find it ironic that everyone says Disney is "targeting the anime crowd" when anime multimedia events were somewhat common back then, and every part of this looks like the Animatrix did. 

      One thing I can say is, if the directors of each episode is anything close to what I saw before, we should be in for some truly unique and visually stunning takes on Star Wars as a mythos.

    3. N-DReW25

      An afterthought I had last night, this is all going to be uploaded on Disney Plus... and much of the Star Wars content on Disney Plus has multiple languages options, and not just subtitles but FULL audio as well.

       

      Most animes are typically Japanese because obviously its a Japanese company making said anime for a Japanese audience with English dubs being made sometime after the initial release, but even though 7 Japanese companies working on this anime Disney is still the company making this ship sail.

       

      So I'm just guessing what on earth is going to happen in regards to what language this show is going to be in:

      1) Will it be dubbed in Japanese with English subtitles like the trailer was?

       

      2) Will it be dubbed in Japanese with the option to change your VO language to another language, including English.

       

      3) For American and English speaking Disney Plus Users, will it be dubbed in English with the option to change the language to Japanese if desired? Thus making the Japanese dubbed trailer kinda redundant in a way?

      And something else I notice in certain Animes is that, for example, we see a sign written in Japanese on the wall and if the Anime has English subtitles it will show a translation of the sign. No doubt any signs or images in this anime will be written in Aurabesh which 98% of the time we Star Wars Fans don't get a translation on Aurabesh anything, so would Disney choose to have Aurabesh signs in the anime translated in English/Japanese or other languages or would they leave that out at the risk of alienating Anime fans who only have this feudal anime as their first real taste of Star Wars content.

       

      I'm overthinking this aren't I?

    4. AmanoJyaku

      AmanoJyaku

      You're overthinking it. It will have both an English and Japanese dub, and I expect the Japanese dub will have subtitles. Also, there's an English dub of the trailer.

      As for the player, it can switch languages and subtitles while you're in the video. It's common for a Disney+ title to be dubbed into multiple languages after production, including Japanese. All that's different in this case is two languages are recorded during production instead of one.

      I don't think any signs are going to be translated, it's never happened before.

      I would like to clarify that the mods of Gamefront have since been restored, the outage was probably a temporary crash with their servers like DP said.

       

      @ajdrenterDon't upload them here, as SH stated that would be against the rules.

    3. Sith Holocron

      Sith Holocron

      @N-DReW25  @ajdrenter That's not what I was pointing out in Rule 18.  It's this:

      Quote

      In cases of abandonware mods (defined as being content which is no longer publicly available and whose authors have been entirely unreachable for a duration of no less than two years), a process exists for these mods to be reuploaded as archived content on Deadlystream; the specific guidelines are included in the second reply to this thread. If you wish to submit mod that qualifies, you may submit a request to the administrators and they will proceed with the steps towards having the mod publicly uploaded.

      So, you might wanna re-read the Rules pages and upload some mods in accordance to what the page says.  Just in case Gamefront decides to give up the ghost again. (Next time permanently?)

    4. N-DReW25

      N-DReW25

      @Sith HolocronOk, that was honestly my mistake! Shoulda checked the rules to make sure they haven't been updated before making a comment like that.

       

      Sorry for the inconvenience.

  9. While playing through Cathalan I learned that in it's story plot Lord Diaeses the guy in charge of the CPF (Cathalan TSF Ripoff club) was actually the Sith Lord who manipulated the Mandalorians and Darth Revan into attacking the Republic. I repeat a Cathalan Sith Lord is responsible for all the events in Kotor 1, 2 and TOR.

  10. GenoHaradan Legacy has been released! Though it is far from final.

     

    In 2017, I set out to make Exile007's 2012 "The GenoHaradan" mod compatiable with TSLRCM with my own improvements. During my development, I wrote a new GH plot inside the Jekk Jekk Tarr so I dropped Exile007's mod to make my own.

     

    Recently, I figured if my planned GH mod will take so long to make but Exile007's won't why not finish my work on Exile007's mod and release that for the time being. Essentially, I've made Exile007's GenoHaradan mod compatible with TSLRCM fixing all major bugs and generally improving the mod.

     

    This mod is far from final, if any bugs are found I will release bug fixes and content patches in the coming months and when my own GenoHaradan mod is finished it shall be called "GenoHaradan Legacy Enhancement Project" or "GenoHaradan Legacy EP" (Yes, I went that there).

     

    Go ham with what has been unleashed and leave feedback, advice and criticism

After all our good friend here has probably come the closest to putting the GenoHaradan in the game. And since I obviously love Nar Shaddaa ;), this is an amazing development!

    3. DarthTyren

      DarthTyren

      That's because a 2DA file isn't a GFF file. It's a 2DA file. You can also compare two different 2DA files in ChangeEdit and it will automatically generate any differences in the changes file.

      @DarthTyren you're completely right, apologies N_DReW25 for the oversight. I did try using another's template with the Jolees Hut mod, and failed miserably, Fairstrides pointed me out to the compare function and it's worked every time. Once again apologies for the GFF/2DA oversight.

      I do know that but one time it took I think a month for someone to approve one of my mods and when it was approved it wasn't displayed in the "What's new" section because of how late it was approved! Maybe with the next mod I will wait a day before I give a status since you sometimes approve before I release the status updates anyway.
