  1. Just released updates for my 2 most popular mods. Finally found the drive that had all my KotOR mod tools on it, so I was able to tweak some lines and fix typos in my Leviathan dialogue mod, and permanently removed the hella buggy manual install for Bastila's Dark Bodysuit.

      Nice! Glad to see you back around mate.

      Glad to be back my friend

  2. I've been out of the game the last 4 years or so (college will do that to ya). Any mod releases I should absolutely know about from that time? About to start a new job but I'm planning ahead for my next K1/K2 playthroughs this winter, haven't played in about 5 years

      In addition to what was said the last time you asked this question (https://deadlystream.com/profile/24126-revanator/?status=7914&reply=13709&type=reply&do=editStatusReply), I can name 3 major released projects:

      1. New Lightsaber Blade Model by Crazy34 for KOTOR and TSL - adds a dynamic ambient light to the blade. This mod started a new era in KOTOR modding, no doubt. Schematic Lightsaber Mod 2021 already includes these glowing blades, and other authors are also interested in using them.

      2. Content Pack: Feats and Powers by TamerBill for KOTOR and TSL. This is one of the very few mods that adds new feats.

      3. High Quality Skyboxes II by Kexikus for KOTOR and TSL.

    2. Sith Holocron

      Sith Holocron

      They've recently updated the mod builds for both games on the KOTOR subreddit.  Worth a look...

  3. Been a few years since I've really been around, any great new mods that have come out I should be aware of?

    1. LoneWanderer

      LoneWanderer

      If you want news about TSL:
      KOTOR 2 Community Patch includes many small fixes.
      GenoHaradan Legacy v.1.0 and few small restoration mods by N-DReW25 have been released.
      Expanded Galaxy by Thor110 is developing rapidly, but it may be too early to try it.

      JC's Player Sondset Restoration for K2

      Intersting visual mods from the top of my head:
      Replacement Loading Screens for KotOR2 by Sith Holocron.
      Movie Mandalorians - Retextured 1.0.0 by Mcfly.
      90SK released updated armor packs.
      TSL/K1 "Better Male Twi'lek Heads" by  Ashton Scorpius has a surprisingly large number of downloads for npc head replacer🤔

      Several Reshade presets for TSL were released on Nexus.
      Some older famous mods have received updates.

      So what looked interesting now that you've had a few days to look around?

      By the way, here's some news you may have missed about the site...

  4. Thinking of running through both games again. Any new mods in the last 6-9 months that I should be aware of?

    1. jc2

      jc2

      Off topic, thought you'd wanna know your Leviathan Dialogue and Bastila's Dark Body Suit are on the reddit kotor build ^^

    2. Revanator

      Revanator

      The runner of that build is on this forum and PM'd me asking permission for each one.

    3. jc2

      jc2

      Light Side Genoharadan by DarthRevan 101, Crystal Cave Redux by djh269, and Tool Bag by me ^^ are all mods I would recommend that came out within that time frame.

  5. That Battlefront II trailer looks really sweet.

  6. Hugh Jackman as Canderous Ordo in a hypothetical KotOR live-action movie/TV show. Discuss.

      Really? k1 Canderous is that old?

       

    3. LDR

      LDR

      Considering Canderous stated in KotOR that he had ben fighting for "40 of your years" and Mandalorians ride off into battle by their teens, it is reasonable to assume he is in his 50s.

    4. Canderis

      Canderis

      keanu reeves should be revan.

  7. Does anyone know the name of the utc for Bastila when goes all Dark Side on you (when you meet her on Lehon)?

      That's my recollection from when I did a DS Bastila mod.

    3. Revanator

      Revanator

      Well that's exhausting. Thanks for the info.

    4. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      I think unk44_evilbast is the one that you fight against while the other 6 are for your companion if you choose the DS ending. Which one is chosen depends on the player level.

  8. I have an alternate clothing texture for one of the party models that I'd like to use in game (not a replacement, but as an armor that needs to be equipped for it to show up). Seems fairly simple but for some reason it isn't working. Is there some major step I need to do besides renaming the relevant tgas, utis, and mdls/mdxs?

      I'd advise against editing appearance.2da if possible, and instead make your texture name conform to the convention. If you must edit the 2da, you need to change the entires in the appropriate texture column for your model to blank (****).

    3. Revanator

      Revanator

      What convention should I use, then? Again, I want this to be a texture on a standard clothing model that doesn't replace the standard texture unless an item is equipped.

    4. DarthParametric

      DarthParametric

      Look at the existing texture names. As I said previously, it will be a base identifier plus the variation number. For example, PMBD06.

  9. Happy birthday man!

    1. jc2

      jc2

      Oh thanks! Didn't see this until just now for some reason..

  10. R.I.P Carrie Fisher. You were an inspiration to us all.

      R. I. P. Mrs. Carrie Fisher. So sad...

  11. Though illness pushed me back a year, I have been accepted to Purdue University.

  12. Does anyone remember the old IGN K1 guide?

    1. Sith Holocron

      Sith Holocron

      Nope. If I didn't use the Prima guides, I usually used the nice ones for K1 and TSL at Game Banshee.

    2. DarthTyren

      DarthTyren

      I still use it sometimes.

    3. jc2

      jc2

      I didn't know about guides until like a year ago. But I had several siblings playing the game ^^ so we all discussed strategies and such.

  13. The armor Anglu (one of the Bek racers) wears...does it appear anywhere else in-game?

    1. DarthParametric

      DarthParametric

      Looking at the UTC it is the Krath Holy Battle Suit, g_a_class7005

      Ah, ok, thanks.

  14. DeNCS isn't working for me. I have JRE installed and DeNCS is in the KT folder. Any suggestions?

      Not working at all. Can't run it, not even through a command prompt.

    3. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      Do you have Java installed? That's the only other thing I can think of at the moment.

    4. Revanator
  15. Anyone know the module number for the Taris Lower Sewers (I think lower; the one where you rescue Zaalbar)?

  16. What's the size for item icons?

    1. DarthParametric

      DarthParametric

      Vanilla is 64x64 IIRC, but that is pretty pathetic. You can make them as big as you like and they will be fine in-game, but KSE has no scaling so large icons fill half its screen, so I tend to stick to 256x256 as an upper limit.

  17. What are the globals for the Bastila romance and the Carth plot?

  18. I'd like to record my next playthrough. Any software recommendations?

      lol I'm such a jerk. I also mentioned the wrong OBS. OBS Studio, not Multiplatform. Here's the link: https://obsproject.com/

    4. Revanator

      Revanator

      Ah okay thanks.

  19. Is there anyone who would be interested in helping me make item icons? I'm not super great with that sort of thing.

      I could maybe try and help

  20. Is there any way to give lightsabers slightly buffed base stats without removing their upgradeablitiy? I grabbed the uti for lghtsbr01, gave it an extra flat stat, renamed it lghtsbr15 (with proper tags of course) and now it's a bugged item. It shows up in my inventory when I cheat it, but as soon as I click on it to upgrade the item disappears.

    1. Kexikus

      Kexikus

      For the lightsaber to be upgradeable you need to add it (and a corresponding color crystal) to upcrystals.2da. Check my 2da information thread in the tutorial section to see how this 2da file works.

  21. Lashowe is invincible; I can't damage her. Any way to kill her?

      Let the Dark Side flow through you, its the only way to defeat her. Lol, I had this happen as well, so I just killed her when I went inside the academy

      I believe he means to take dialog options to not fight Lashowe and let her return to the Academy.

  22. Playing through KotOR again, I'm noticing to texture sets I'd like to make HQ: Hutts and the Ebon Hawk cockpit windows. Any advice for a first-time retexurer?
