  1. Out of curioisity, does anyone have a solid explanation as to why Kotor gets screwed over with Intel HD Graphics? It's not an APU problem because I've used AMD APUs and Kotor runs great, all things working normally. Intel HD, no matter which variety, just doesn't agree with Kotor... or a couple other games for that matter. Odd

      I'd have to run the GPU caps viewer on the Intel driver to say specifically, but the short answer is that the game uses old OpenGL extensions, often NV_ or ATI_ namespaced ones. The big two have kept those features in their newer packages while Intel has, presumably, not gone back and implemented every historical OpenGL extension. Especially since OpenGL is the ignored stepchild to Direct3D on Windows. Long story short, it is unlikely to ever get better and it's not a hardware issue.

      I like to think of it as keeping things fresh.

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

      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.

      I would love to not be the one to have to write this! I have (JS) libs for 2DA/GFF I can give you.

      Wow that is spot on. TIL what Elon was doing in 1981 ... and that I need to watch Heavy Metal. I was more of a 'Wizards' person.

      The launch made for good watching! It is hard to look at the starman+roadster in orbit and not think of a Dr. Who episode in the making...

  8. In your opinion, which of these looks closest to the font used on the menu? https://www.myfonts.com/fonts/fenotype/praktika/

      None of the praktika fonts look particularly close to me, so I may be thinking of the wrong 'the menu'.

       

      If you're talking KOTOR/TSL, I'd look at Bank Gothic and Fry's Baskerville, both by Bitstream.

  9. Reply with "+1" if you use Brotherhood of Shadow: Solomon's Revenge every time you use KotOR. This is a poll and I am not looking for commentary. ;)
