wow 20 replies now... this really needs to be thread....

"Heart of the modding community" ROFLMAO

I'd think "pain in the ass" might be more apt. But thanks Sapiens!

Bead-V is preparing for finals so he's likely not to comment until after he takes them. Let's wait for Bead-V to open a thread to re-open this conversation. Agreed?

This status update got more replies than many of the threads around here.

I second the "pain in the ass" statement

Let us see what his specialty is first.

Why don't all the people developing Kotor 3 in an Unreal 4 engine just band together and make one huge mod for Kotor/TSL?

HA

Cough ::Coruscant:: cough!

"Six streams" sounds like a football package

ahahha truth

just don't cross them

Like the history of KotOR modding in general, I think that one might take a while.

You've piqued my curiosity. I followed the Team Gizka forums back when they were active (Basically read their bug reports since there wasn't anything else to do; and because I was curious what things were cut from TSL, and wanted to know what the final mod would look like) It would give nice closure after seeing that site basically cease to function before being invited to DeadlyStream.

Well, I can write some of it, I suppose, if I have time. But it would just be my, rather partial, view on the thing. I'm sure there are others around who would have plenty to say as well.

I want that one on my ship, right now!

TSL version:

And here are the models if you want to try them out. It should work with any blaster model, either vanilla or modded, but I repositioned the bullet hooks to match SS's model, so it will likely be offset on others.

War_Droid_Blaster_Reference_Switch.7z

Edit: I see that w_rptnblstr_001 apparently uses different textures between K1 and TSL. It's easy enough to swap to different variants just by pointing the reference to the desired model name.

Thank you very much for the war droid fixes DarthParametric! They are great! But I don't suppose you have done the same for the assassin droids have you? I have noticed their guns are block textures as well. P.S: Sorry for the thread necromancy, but I wasn't sure where else to post.

I think just pulling droids out until the performance gets back to where it should be would be the best thing to do.

I would say change the number of container plcs, and for the research area with the droids- remove them and then redesign the room layout and test these layouts to see if they help with the lag.

Moved this to a thread. Contribute there, please? http://deadlystream.com/forum/topic/3325-a-possible-cause-of-lag-the-thread/

I didn't mind the hijacking this time 'round.  (Strange, huh?) 

Off-topic: had to download Firefox because I couldn't respond on my home computer. Goodbye Chrome!

Back on topic: I was thinking I might (eventually) start on doing PC portrait packs like my NPC portrait packs.  I will first have to re-start reading that 3dsmax book, then figure how to do the facial animations for each portrait, and finally what background/s would be the best to use. Need to research more about all of this before I open a WIP.

TBH, I am surprised no one else decided to do this before me.

Far too much effort for too little gain.

Probably.

Survived surgery. Will post more tomorrow. 

Glad you made it through the surgery, SH. I hope your recovery goes smoothly!

Finally home again. The long process of fhealing has started. 

It's just that whenever I do kill her, it instantly goes to the HK factory. Are you wanting me to kill her, have it go to the HK factory, and then you could just warp back?

Just thought of what I need to do: use the Whereami armband.

New pictures and the conversation continues here: http://deadlystream.com/forum/blog/28/entry-145-blog-35-portrait-pictures/#commentsStart

North American, 100%. As a female PC, Revan doesn't have an English accent in-game.

True . . . but KOTOR1 dialogues for Revan are a bit small side. Besides, I am only looking for British suggestions as indicated in the post with the link above.

It's best if I move this conversation over to the main VO thread for this subject.

Interesting a DNS lookup doesn't return an IP, suggesting the domain isn't actually pointing at a server. The domain is also due to expire in about 3 weeks or so. I wonder if they really did run out of money....

Do you have any tutorials over at LF, DP?

Nothing formal that I can recall, although I believe I did stick my nose into one of Quanon's UV mapping tutorials to offer my 2c regarding GMax. Other than that it was probably just assorted blather in random threads.

Seeing as just shelled out for rebuilding my computer (see Blog 50) and two replacement programs, I won't be buying any other programs for some time. But thanks for the enthusiasm!

Inkscape is open source, i.e. free.

I guess I was hoping more for "Hey, I think I know where you can pick up these shirts" rather than breaking copyright.

Only thing I'd recommend for a first playthrough is maybe just a bug-fix here and there. Personally, I try to keep my first run of a game as vanilla as possible.

Recommended bug fixes then, L0ki194?

Took a loot at the Nexus page, and I'd have to recommend "Yukichigai Unofficial Patch" or "YUP" for short. It's just strictly bug-fixes, and doesn't require anything extra, like the New Vegas Script Extender. Last update was fairly recently too, on June 16th.

Replying to @N-DReW25:

From the looks of it, the new column texture looks cleaner than the original texture. Considering the Enclave was bombarded and abandoned for 5 years wouldn't it make more sense for it to be dirty?

You know what orbital bombardment and abandonment wouldn't do?  It wouldn't make a concrete/permacrete object turn blurry.  If you have an issue with why Obsidian didn't make the Enclave ruins more ruined, you might take it up with them.

In the mean time, why not look at the textures I included in the mod update in the game first and then offer an opinion?

Ok, truth be told I never realized it was a High Definition texture. The HD texture made the pillar's looked cleaner and without any knowledge of the fact it was HD, I just assumed. I looked at the texture included and I agree with you that is an improvement. Just so you know, Obsidian didn't make these low res textures for the fun of it, this game was developed for the original Xbox meaning that textures had to be low res so the game can perform better on the Xbox (It was, for this reason, the Battle of Khoonda was cut, it couldn't run on the Xbox).

My suggestion would be to get a bunch of these low res textures and HD them up like you've done here and release them in one big pack, this will be more appealing to the people who download these mods.

I just assumed

That's what you get when you assume. 

Oya!

Goal met. The victory would not have been possible without your support. Thanks everyone!

Yes! I had a feeling I was a jedi, Congratz.

...I think there's somting in some .2da that you can set to remove T3's first person filter, but I'm not quite sure what it is and f it works or not.

*something

Bead-V has hooked me up with a save. Thanks though!

Only on Steam Workshop. Which unfortunately has still not been resolved by Valve after 6+ months since I reported it. *sigh*

@Ferc Kast: That stinks!  Sorry to hear you've encountered a thief. Which of your mods did the person on Steam grab from you?

Just my Playable Twileks mod. I managed to find their DCMA reporting page earlier, thanks to the Steam Community forum, and it’s finally down! 😁

And I just added an idea to your list!

I agree with you, let's give Master Vash the ending she deserves.

@narshaddaarocks if you've played the 1.5, your input would be appreciated in the "loved this about M4-78" or "hated this about M4-78" blogs.  (Yes, you can post in both if there are things that both liked and disliked.)

@Sith HolocronI actually have not yet, but I will comment on those as soon as I do play it which shouldn't be long.

I have seen various bashing for UI layouts in the past, yes. Whether that is the actual reason (plus lazy mods not wanting to deal with it) I don't know. That just seemed like an obvious answer to what otherwise seems a completely arbitrary rule.

It's the only answer I've been offered - I'll take it.  Thanks.

Better to be where you can have fun.

LOL

Brrlghbrrr brlhhhhhgh.

Excuse me, that was the noise of the GODDAMN EPILEPSY THIS AVATAR IS GIVING ME.

My eyes.

I will drink some beer with my friends.

Haven't checked my schedule but if I'm off and I have Rogue One by then, I'll be doing a mini marathon with R1 and ANH on the 4th.

Play SWTOR, scour the internet for Star Wars deals, probs go see Guardians of the Galaxy too

So Kreia will have a Peragus background? Hmm... I also thought about the Factory for HK, but then it should be something that makes sense when you get the character.

Kreia is unique because we haven't *really* met who she really is until the end.

Heh, maybe I sense there's a good idea behind this

New DropBox link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ea5o1dp60j2qypl/cslu206.exe?dl=0

Thanks for the link.

Well... that would have been useful for TSLRCM and M4-78EP. Oh well...

That's how they pronounced it. And it's the only time it has ever been pronounced.

@DarthTyren unless you mean only in Legends, otherwise the Jedi Master mod says it in Basic several times.

But I always, thought it was derived from some Arabic word. Conspiracy Theory: Quick google search > https://azerdict.com/english/haradan and Geno, a latin root, for race or kind. End result "A race from where?"

Best probably be see how Atton and Batu Rem pronounce it and stick to that.

@Quanon: Just read it and will be replying momentarily. 

Didn't see the Stoney thing either. I raise the same objections though.

I don't see an issue with someone else recording what another wrote as long as person ok with it and they read what the person wrote.

I already gave my ok since I don't have recording access and I hate my recorded voice anyway.🥵

Also he is stating ahead of time that someone was going to record the written words in place of author to me it's not an issue unless the author of said article doesn't want someone else to record it.
