Sith Holocron

I've just become aware that there's another M4-78 mod available on the 'net that was created way back in 2007. It's called the Droid Planet mod and it was created by Darth_Shan. The creator got it to a version 1.3 so he must have worked on it for some period of time. Why mention this to you, Dear Reader? Have you heard me mumble something about a secret project lately? I'm currently working on a video documentary that will cover all of M4-78's history: Why it was cut from the game in the first place and the various attempts to restore it to the game. (Now you know.) This mod is a part of that history. Do you wish to be a part of it? Try out the mod linked above and offer your reviews. I have no earthly idea if it's TSLRCM compatible. My educated guess is that it isn't. (If you're adventurous, be my guest to try it out with TSLRCM.) I won't be able to help you if there's an issue installing it or how the plot goes. However, there's a cheat guide and walk through included with the mod in case you get stuck. At the very least, I'll be able to add this mod to appropriate section on the Compatibility List.) Best case scenario, I'll get some recent reviews of this mod and you find something new to explore. I hope you'll join me on this endeavor. M4-78 (figuratively) salutes you!

Mysteries of the Sith is a demo from PC Gamer. For all I know, it's the whole expansion. Star Wars Galaxies is 14 day trial disc. Also note the Battlefront II case hasn't even been unsealed.

That's only a SOTE demo disc. Sorry to burst that bubble.

I just got the most recent Star Wars Humble Bundle. What's odd about that is already have so many other games . . . . Kind of weird that I got that since I already have these . . . Even if I was frugal when picking these up, do I have collection addiction?

For those interested, the previous bundle had the following included: Tier 1: Pay what you want for the wonderful Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy and Star Wars: Dark Forces. Tier 2: Pay more than the average price, and you also get Star Wars Republic Commando, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords, and Star Wars Battlefront 2. The games that were unlocked later were: Star Wars Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast (PC, Mac), Star Wars Starfighter (PC), and Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 (PC). Tier 3: Pay $12 or more, and you get all of the above plus Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2, Star Wars The Force Unleashed: Ultimate Sith Edition, and Star Wars Empire at War: Gold Pack.

And for using the Star Wars name?

If it's not too much off topic, might I ask why you want to silence all of the voice files?

Any guesses on what they will be?

Another update! "Intense" and "successful" are now correctly spelled. "Original" is still spelled incorrectly - twice.

Seeing as I'm going to update mt signature, I thought I ought to post a quote I had in my signature here - for posterity's sake. Words to live by if you're making a large scale mod.

I think you ought to run this by Zbyl2. As he's away for the moment, you'll have time for community feedback until then.

Hey guys. I have the Tie Fighter Collector's CD-Rom and I've just picked up the Tie Fighter: Special Edition from the current Humble Bundle as well. Here's my question. The missions are all voiced so I can find those. However, i was hoping someone might know where I can find the voice files in the Tie Fighter intro (as seen here) The music appears to be separate from the voice files so the game must be looking somewhere for them. Any suggestions on where to look? I plan to clean up the audio voice files, get a new movie style opening crawl from JCarter426, replace the original music with superior fan recreated opening credit music, and replace the current sound effects with higher quality sound effects. This is so I can put together a nicer looking and sounding opening cutscene for the game. The VOC file format used for the voice files can be opened in Goldwave. I've tested out noise reduction on the mission voice files and I have been successful. I would've asked about this over at LucasForums but they archived the X-wing/Tie Fighter/XWA section. This is a long shot but I had to ask.

Also picked this up.

Done.

Miles, I'll do it later. Getting ready for work.

Props go to DP for doing the hard work and to you for bringing the issue to my attention.

But of course - stand by . . . Update Posted Today, 12:32 AM [EST] Fixed now. Thanks to Darth Parametric and Kexikus!

I've lost my instructions on how to do the fooling around with transparencies and alpha channels on my Paint Shop Pro 5. (Yes, I said Paint Shop Pro 5! I don't have Photoshop and I will never be able to afford a legal copy.) I don't have an abundance of time to mess with this at the moment. However, there are those that would love to work on this. Might one of you be able to fix the original version and I'll update the read-me with a credit? I've unapproved the mod until it is fixed. No point in having people downloading it until it's up to snuff.

Downloaded!

I have to download the file in order to learn the contents. That seems counterintuitive.

I don't see a list of the changes. Am I missing it?
