@Snigaroo I saw your mention. I can make a standalone version of the Esok changes.

View File For Mandalore! Command a squad of Mandalorian allies as Mandalore, and unlock new forces as you advance through his personal quest. SUMMARY Mandalore has a personal sidequest which involves helping him reunite the Mandalorian clans by recruiting groups of Mandalorians you find on different planets. There is not really a reward or impact of this quest except for influence which unlocks some new dialogue and backstory. This mod adds incentive and impact to this quest in the form of a new ability which allows Mandalore to call soldiers from his growing army into battle. Mandalore will be given the item "Emergency Comlink" which allows him to call from a list of allies by allocating points and spending a small sum of credits. Points reflect the galactic strength of the Mandalorians, and determine the quantity and power of forces you can summon. This will grow as you advance through his quest. This mod also beefs up and arms Esok, the Mandalorian leader on Dantooine, who normally is unarmed and puts up a pretty underwhelming fight. Note about balance: Having a squad of Mandalorians at your side will obviously make fights easier. This mod is made for fun, but I have tried to keep balance in mind. Allies are scaled similarly to enemy NPCs, minus their damage bonus, so they will not be powerful enough to take on most groups of enemies alone. The credit cost, while modest, will hopefully encourage careful use of the ability. This mod should be installed prior to Mandalore joining your party for the comlink to be in his inventory. If not, he will get the item upon recruiting the first group of Mandalorians. Otherwise you can get the item using the cheat "giveitem mandradio". DETAILS Allies & Points To summon an ally, you need to pay credits and allocate points for the area you are in. You will start with 1 point to spend and 1 ally to choose from. As you advance through the quest and help Mandalore recruit more Mandalorians, he will gain additional points and unlock new, more powerful allies to choose from. See list of available allies below: ----------------------------------- Mandalorian Scout Cost: 1 point + 200 credits A recon unit, not built for direct combat but provides solid support and has strength in numbers. Mandalorian Elite Cost: 2 points + 300 credits Unlocked after first Mandalorian group recruited A battle-hardened warrior with upgraded weaponry, stats, and feats. Mandalorian Infiltrator Cost: 2 points + 400 credits Unlocked after second Mandalorian group recruited A specialist in stealth and melee combat. Automatically enters stealth when enemies are nearby and can deliver sneak attacks. Lower health pool but has good defense and can deal a lot of damage. Mandalorian Heavy Cost: 3 points + 400 credits Unlocked after second Mandalorian group recruited A tank with firepower. Armed with a Mandalorian Heavy Repeater and Mandalorian Heavy Armor. ----------------------------------- By recruiting both Mandalorian groups you will get 4 points in total to spend on reinforcements. When using only 2 party members (main character and Mandalore), you will get 2 extra points to spend. So with the quest finished and without a third party member, Mandalore can allocate 6 points at a time to an area. Allies will remain in the area they were called to until dismissed or until new forces are called to a different area. They can’t follow between modules. The comlink will work on Dantooine, Nar Shadaa, Dxun, Onderon, and the Ravager. It will not work on Telos, Korriban, Malachor, or Goto's Yacht. Commands Mandalore can issue the following commands: 1. Follow - Default behavior. Mandalorian allies follow Mandalore. 2. Wait - Allies will stay wherever they are. 3. Search and Destroy - Allies will search out nearby enemies and engage them. If no enemies are found, they will revert to Follow behavior. Search & Destroy behavior can be a little wonky indoors, where NPCs sometimes have trouble pathfinding long distances. They may teleport or disappear temporarily. Switch them back to Follow if you lose them.

View File True Sith Assassins & Awareness Restoration Adds sneak attacks and PC Awareness checks to Sith Assassins. SUMMARY: From the in-game description of the Awareness skill: “Awareness governs the ability of a character to spot objects or enemies hidden by Stealth…” If you're like me, with all the Sith Assassins in the game you might have assumed your Awareness played some role in detecting them. Well, I'm here to tell you that Sith Assassins never actually use Stealth, and you've probably never rolled an Awareness check against an enemy in either games. It's all a lie, and you're entitled to compensation. In reality, NPC stealth is an illusion scripted by the game, and your stats play no role in detecting hidden NPCs. Sith Assassins don't have any points in Stealth, and on top of that, they can't even perform sneak attacks. Some assassins! This mod does the following things: - Restores PC Awareness vs Stealth checks on Sith Assassins - Gives all Sith Assassins the ability to perform sneak attacks - Adds stealth behavior to the Sith Assassins on Malachor (in vanilla they just wait around uncloaked) This will not only make Awareness a more useful skill but also turn Sith Assassins into more deadly enemies. You will not see them at all until you make a successful Awareness check or until after they've already hit you with a sneak attack. Remember that sneak attacks can happen outside of stealth too, so don't let them flank you! This mod may make some parts of the game significantly more challenging, but hopefully also more dynamic and interesting. All stats and feats are granted based on PC level so it should be fairly balanced, but I welcome any feedback. DETAILS: This mod is accomplished through custom scripts which take advantage of the unused Invisibility effect and emulate the engine-level PC Stealth vs NPC Awareness checks. NPC Stealth was never fully implemented so it is pretty broken and just putting the NPCs in actual Stealth Mode gives erratic and unwanted results. While in line of sight of a stealthed Sith Assassin, each of your party members will periodically make an Awareness check against the NPC's Stealth. This is made to be as close as possible to the game’s calculation, accounting for distance, field of view, and whether you're running or in combat. However, the checks occur more frequently than with NPC Awareness (every 6s vs every 20s). If a check succeeds, the enemy will become visible/targetable and will not get to perform a sneak attack (unless they're behind you or you’re stunned). All Sith Assassins in the game are given points into the Stealth skill and a Sneak Attack feat. For balance these are granted on spawn according to the scaled level of the NPC and the Sith Assassin class progression. Sith Assassins are given a Stealth skill equal to their level (with a minimum of 5). INSTALLATION: Please read compatibility notes before installing. To install, run TSLPatcher.exe. Unaltered copies of any edited files will be placed in the "backup" folder in the location of TSLPatcher.exe. UNINSTALLATION: 1. Remove the following files from override: - sith_ass.utc - sith_ass_403.utc - sith_ass_404.utc - sith_ass_405.utc - sith_ass_406.utc - sithassassin.utc - m_dmg_sithass.ncs - m_htb_sithass.ncs - m_spn_sithass.ncs - m_spn_sithass2.ncs - m_spn_sithass3.ncs - m_spn_sithass4.ncs - m_sithspwn_152.ncs - m_sith_user.ncs 2. Remove 151HAR.mod, 152HAR.mod, 903MAL.mod, 905MAL.mod, and 906MAL.mod from the Modules folder. 3. Move any .mod files from the backup folder into the Modules folder. 4. If any other files were created inside the backup folder, move them to override. COMPATIBILITY & OTHER NOTES: Technically compatible with Peragus Sith Troops to Sith Assassins by Hassat Hunter, but the Sith Assassins added by that mod will not be affected by my mod. Might make a patch in the future. Fully compatible with Sith Assassins -- With Lightsabers by Shem. However, my mod must be installed AFTER Sith Assassins with Lightsabers by Lewok2007, which combines the previous two mods. Be aware that this mod already increases the damage output of Sith Assassins by giving them sneak attacks, so giving them lightsabers on top of it might make for a tough time. Up to you. Should be fully compatible with mods that edit the default creature scripts, like Improved AI by Stoffe. Partially compatible with Trayus Rank Reform, but my mod must be installed after and will overwrite most of the female Sith Assassins added by that mod. The Sith Assassins on Dxun retain vanilla stealth behavior to avoid breaking cutscenes but are still granted Sneak Attack.

View File Improved Force Sight New Force Sight mechanics, including stat bonuses and a higher-tier Force Sight power. Also turns Force Sight on permanently when controlling Visas. SUMMARY: In the game, Visas can teach you Force Sight which allows you to see the alignment of characters around you, occasionally through some obstacles. It's a cool RP thing but not really something you use often. This mod aims to improve Force Sight by giving it new bonuses and mechanics, including the addition of a higher-tier Improved Force Sight power which can boost your defense, making it useful in combat. In the spirit of my "skills affect Force Power" mods, the effects of Force Sight are linked to your Awareness skill. High awareness Jedi Seer build? In addition to the usual effects, Force Sight now grants a bonus to Awareness. While in vanilla this is only useful for detecting mines (through the Force?) and maybe skill checks if you time it right, this mod is intended to synergize with my other mod True Sith Assassins & Awareness Restoration which makes the Awareness skill necessary for detecting Sith Assassins and avoiding sneak attacks. When using that mod, the Awareness bonus becomes very useful in areas with Sith Assassins, especially on the final planet. After learning Force Sight from Visas, you can upgrade the power to Improved Force Sight, which gives a higher Awareness bonus and also boosts your Defense depending on your base Awareness rank. My thought is that an advanced Jedi could take advantage of this power in battle, using Force Sight to better perceive their enemies' movements. The degree to which they can do this is tied to their inherent skill in perceiving the world. Think of it like an alternative, temporary kind of Battle Precognition that you can get through Visas if you don't have Handmaiden (or fall out of her graces). This mod will also make it so that Force Sight is on permanently while controlling Visas. In vanilla, it's only turned on in first-person view. She will come with the Improved Force Sight power and can spend FP to temporarily get the stat bonuses. In order for the changes to Visas to take place, this mod must be installed before your first encounter with her. DETAILS: In addition to the normal effects, Force Sight now grants a +4 bonus to Awareness. The power still costs 15 FPs. Improved Force Sight grants a +8 bonus to Awareness and +1 Defense for every 3 points in the base Awareness skll rank (not including bonuses from items, attributes, or effects, including from this power). This power costs 20 FPs. This means that with 18 points in Awareness, you'll gain a +6 Defense bonus, equivalent to Force Armor. By the end-game it's feasible to have 30 points spent in Awareness, translating to a +10 Defense bonus. The duration of both powers are extended by 1 second for every 2 points in your base Awareness rank. Due to how the mod works, Force Sight will be visible when leveling up, but you won’t be able to select it and still must learn it from Visas. Improved Force Sight will be selectable after you learn Force Sight as long as you’re level 12 or higher. INSTALLATION: To install, run TSLPatcher.exe. If an edited file already exists in your override folder, an unaltered copy will be placed in the "backup" folder in the location of TSLPatcher.exe, along with a backup of dialog.tlk. UNINSTALLATION: To uninstall, remove the following files from override: - spells.2da - effecticon.2da - p_visas.utc - m_imp_forcesight.ncs - m_spn_visas.ncs - ip_forcesight2.tga Replace dialog.tlk in the main game folder (outside override) with the unaltered versiion in the backup folder. If any other files were created inside the backup folder, move them to override. COMPATIBILITY: Compatible with Visas Marr: Sith Assassin. May conflict with mods that edit Visas. Compatible with and intended to compliment True Sith Assassins & Awareness Restoration. Should be compatible with anything else as long as it uses a patcher and doesn't edit the Force Sight script.

View File Better Disciple Meditation Makes it so meditating with Disciple grants a temporary bonus to Wisdom. SUMMARY: In the vanilla game you can meditate with Disciple if no enemies are around to fully restore your Force points. It's a cool mechanic but FP regenerates fast enough outside of combat that I've never really used it except for role-playing. This mod aims to make meditation more useful by also granting both the PC and Disciple a +2 bonus to Wisdom for 5 minutes. Nothing huge but it's free and lasts a long time, so it might get you to bring Disciple along more often or check in to meditate before heading out. INSTALLATION: To install, run TSLPatcher.exe. If an edited file already exists in your override folder, an unaltered copy will be placed in the "backup" folder in the location of TSLPatcher.exe. UNINSTALLATION: 1. Remove the following files from override: - spells.2da - effecticon.2da - dscplmed_caster.utp - a_forcepointheal.ncs - m_imp_dscplmed.ncs - m_dscmed_plc_htb.ncs - disciplemed.tga 2. Replace dialog.tlk in the main game folder with the unaltered version in the backup folder. 3. Move any remaining files in the backup folder to override. COMPATIBILITY: Not compatible with mods that edit the script a_forcepointheal.ncs. Otherwise should be compatible as long as the mod uses a patcher or this mod is installed after. Compatible with Party Swap. PERMISSIONS: Please do not reupload this mod or any contained files without my permission.
