Ads are now disabled for active site members so that should go away.

Yeah we had really high CPU load that was causing some issues, seems like someone has been trying to download every mod in the last 3 days... anyways should be fixed now.

@Todd Hellid Please list all mods that you are using per the rules you can see them here in section one: https://deadlystream.com/topic/7454-deadlystream-forum-rules/ Failure to do so will result in all posting privileges being lost as you have been warned multiple times.

Unfortunately due to some medical issues I have not been able to focus on the site as I had hoped, and there is a lack of active staff as well to pick up anything else.

Hm I forced it on for admins but not anyone else, that is strange but you can always click the opt-out link at the bottom of the prompt. Sorry for the hassle!

I mean you can always look up how to uncompress a rar file. I’m sorry you feel you have bad experience with modders but honestly you need to do a bit of research on your own to mod games, that is just how it is. However see the link below, it explains how to extract files using 7zip. These are rar extension archives so you will have to uncompress them with a file program like 7zip to even be able to open them. See link for how to extract; https://7ziphelp.com/how-to-use-7-zip

Alright they were uploaded as .rar files a type of compression format. Sounds like you need to download 7zip. You can find that here: https://www.7-zip.org/ Also no need to be snippy, its gonna be fine.

You may want to clear your cache or go into incognito mode. I just tried download both of the mods you said aren’t working and was able to download them just fine.

Hi All - With all the rumors of a new KoTOR coming out, Deadlystream is in great need of a new theme for Deadlystream and a new Logo/Banner. What I am looking for is someone to do what is outlined below, this would be a paid project and anyone who can show some previous work is free to apply. I am particularly hoping someone from the community would like to do this work, as I believe someone with a passion for KoTOR and Star Wars would be better suited for this. This could all be done by one person or if you would prefer to do just the theme or just the logo that works too. Theme - Build a wireframe and/or a psd of a new theme for Deadlystream Design new icons for Deadlystream forums New design for the Forum section of Deadlystream New design for a News Section of Deadlystream New design for the download section of Deadlystream New design for the Gallery Section of Deadlystream Logo and Banner - New Logo that includes Deadlystream in the name New Banner that is Star Wars / KoTOR theme'd Logo can be layered over banner, and will be used at the header of Deadlystream Please reach out to me via PM if you are interested. Thank You, Tyvokka

It’s now reinstated, thanks for your patience.

We have decided to fully reinstate the thread once @Salk removes said content as he said he would. -T

It was getting a bit heated so it was hidden as it didn't seem to serve a purpose anymore, I will reinstate it but it will need to be kept civil and we want to see the requested mods removed as you said you would. And this is a forum censorship on drama should be expected as the majority of us do not care to hear or read about said drama.

Yeah you shouldn’t be getting ads let me see what’s up. Yeah for some reason being in multiple groups was messing things up, should be working for you now.

I have decided to re-upload the credited version back to Deadlysteam as our mod hosting policies have been changed to allow more flexibility in this area. It seems best that a version that can resolve install issues be available here.

So it seems google keeps turning on this new auto ad placement feature they rolled out recently. I keep turning it off but it won't stick, I opened a ticket with them about it. Gonna mess with the theme to see if I can hide them today.

Tipjar Requirements & Regulations 1. Deadlystream permits modders to present users with links to tip jars under the understanding that these systems are to be fully optional for both parties. Users who give a tip to a modder through the tipjar system should not expect, request, or be entitled to additional support, influence, or access to a modder as a result of their gift; similarly, a modder should not hold donations over the heads of users in exchange for promises of further support, mod releases, specific content production, etc. The cornerstone of the system is its voluntary nature, for both modder and user. This also means that a modder may choose to display or not display a tipjar entirely at their preference, and on a mod-by-mod basis, at their complete discretion. 2. In order to further reassure users of the voluntary nature of tipping our modders and avoid unwanted solicitations, tipjar links should not be included in signatures, sent to users via PM, or posted on the forums in exchange for anything, even mod or crash support. Tipjars are to be housed on the mod download page(s), mod forum page(s), and/or readme(s) of whichever mod(s) you as the creator choose to include tipjar links on, and nowhere else. 3. To facilitate their use, a user may have multiple types of tipjar for end-user convenience (such as linking both Paypal and Ko-fi), but any site used must comply with the following basic criteria: It cannot include any system whereby the modder has enough control over the tipping system that they can force tips to become recurring. If a user sets their pledge to recurring, we expect the modder to get in touch with the user and confirm that was intentional. This is meant to be a courteous system on both sides. It cannot be housed on any site which promotes or allows illegal activities. With these regulations in mind, sites like Patreon are not acceptable. Sites and methods including Paypal, Ko-Fi, and Bitcoin donations are acceptable. 4. Although sites which allow the locking of certain content behind tip levels (such as a private chat, unique mod content, special updates, etc.) are allowed, these features within these sites cannot be used; no special features, unique content, private chats, or any other benefit of tipping can be provided from the action of tipping, whether facilitated through the site itself or not. Similarly, while sites that allow the locking of tip levels to a certain minimum requirement (such as a $5 minimum) can be used, these minimum donation features cannot be used, and tippers must be permitted to give at whatever level they feel comfortable with. 5. For mods with multiple collaborators, all collaborators must completely agree on the presence of a tipjar and the split of its earnings for that mod to be able to include a tipjar link. The tipjar links for these mods must be separate from your typical tipjar (you must completely segregate the money that you get for each collaborative mod made by different collaborators OR any mod with a different agreed split of money between collaborators under an entirely different account) in order to be absolutely sure you and your collaborators know exactly how many donations any given project has earned, separate from personal work and other collaborative projects. For the purposes of these regulations, a "collaborator" is determined to be any individual whom you implemented direct assets or work from; it might be polite to consult those you received significant advising from, but we don't mandate it. In cases of collaborative tipjars, funds are to be split precisely according to the agreement of all parties when the tipjar is initially established, at a timetable or monetary ratio (for example, once every six months, or every $10) also agreed on by all parties. Collaborators are fully free to retract their right to any of the money gained from any given mod's tipjar at their discretion. Deadlystream staff WILL NOT arbitrate disputes about monetary dispensation. If a disagreement is reached about tipjar use, the right to use a tipjar on a given collaborative project will instead be instantly and permanently revoked.

Yeah we had a donate button for a while I just turned it off until I was ready to turn it back on, not quite there yet.

Eh probably won't change much, but that is the plan.

Google changed their ads to be bigger so that is probably what you are seeing. Ads are the majority of the minuscule revenue DS gets at this point though a few people here and there donate which I greatly appreciate.

I'm happy everyone came together and figured it out. 😂

Should be fixed

Thanks for the heads up, I will get that updated here asap. The reason why it looks different as a guest is because there is a different editor theme applied to the main theme vs the small header theme.

Yeah the native builds of Kotor 1 for Mac OS have always seemed to have a few issues. in terms of the textures, the animations could be a likely culprit. You may be able to go into the kotor 2 apps container files and upgrade the wine components to a new build to fix the issue. To be honest if you own it on steam, it may be worth it to run steam in wine on your Mac. Then you can take full advantage of all the TSLPatcher mods.

If they (aspyr) are just launching wine or crossover mac on mac os to run Kotor 2, then most likely this is an issue with the version of Wine being used for Kotor 2 for Mac. I believe Kotor 1 runs native on Mac OS where as Kotor 2 is not compiled for Mac but instead just run inside a wine container.

Two factor is now working too @DarthParametric
