@N-DReW25 Thanks for explaining the veterans point of view. Really appreciated. Thanks for the tip aswell, and yeah I was indeed quoting FairStrides. I have to disagree with you on one point : "The sale of mods in the Kotor Modding Community is prohibited, hence why that part is moot." Still, why ? Obviously it's prohibited, but it's not what I meant. What I meant is SAO is doing a great job, and as I said, "Even if it's supposed to be free, it's still a lot of work. Work that's not paid in any way, which can make the schedule change (everyone has a life 😅). So he's giving something to us. I don't feel like we can expect anything in a severe way." I also said that I agree with you on that he probably shouldn't have shared a deadline. But again, he didn't know it would be that much of an issue and is very ambitious for his mod. I think I understand now. Well yeah obviously I'm not the team leader 😅 "Sao hasn't publicly announced that you're on the Sleheyron: Story Mode dev team" : Obviously, he basically hasn't announced anything publicly, except for some Screenshots, the mod idea and the "deadline". And the "dev team" idea is pretty big. I'm helping and beta testing as much as I can, but if you mean "dev team" in a professional way, I don't think we can say there's one. Last point : imo, he underestimates quite a lot the "last details" steps (last bug fixes, setting up Holopatcher, testing it and fixing it).

@Fair Strides "While you do seem to edit your posts a lot instead of taking the time to craft a reply, my comment was not out of trust." Yeah sorry about all the edits, I'm trying to reply fast but perhaps I should take my time a bit more, especially since being french doesn't help while discussing stuff like that in english. Thanks for "my comment was not out of trust." "Most mods are free, so that part is moot." : Well, why ? Even if it's supposed to be free, it's still a lot of work. Work that's not paid in any way, which can make the schedule change (everyone has a life 😅). So he's giving something to us. I don't feel like we can expect anything in a severe way. Look at SithSpecter's project. From what I understood, it's been 20 years since he's announced it, or at least since he's been working on it. You'll tell me, he didn't give a deadline. Fine, but what do you prefer ? Waiting 20 years or waiting 6 months + 1 additional because the deadline given was a bit short ? "The culture iwth modding has always been very aware of the amount of time that goes into a hobby, I assure you." : I understand what you mean. But still, it IS a lot of work. "SAO has also not heeded much in the way of advice given by SH or others with such an ambitious starting project, even with such basic things as sharing screenshots here of their project" : I've read SH's advices on SAO's project and this time it's me who can assure you something : he definitely listened to SH's advices. Indeed, he took more time to improve the overall quality of the mod ; he diversified the sound files as well as lips for better realism ; He fixed a lot of issues that almost only fellow modders would see ; he did send some screenshots, even if I agree with you, he could make a bit more. But are you sure you want this ? What about the surprise ? "Whether I trust you or not is also moot, since you're not trying to release or upload the mod." : I'm not sure I understand what you mean here. "You entered in with a lot of support from out of nowhere, hence SH's white-knighting comment" : Indeed, I'm supporting SAO because I believe it's a worthy project. And the guy really has good intentions and does an amazing work. "From out of no where" ? Well, tbf, I myself am pretty new to modding in general and modding Kotor in particular. So yeah, I'm basically "coming out of nowhere". But didn't you all too at some point ? I understood SH's comment, don't worry, and the "white-knighting" is understandable. It's more the "making false promises" that annoyed me, because of my reasons already explained at the beginning of this text (a lot of free work). "with this being the first mention that you're helping and beta-testing." : Sorry about that too. I just didn't feel the need to precise that but ig I should have. My bad on this one. "but not all critique and criticism is wrong" : Of course ! It's just the way he said it that bothered me a little. As I said earlier, I usually like reading SH's comments because they're constructive and very interesting. Which wasn't the case here, as you noticed. "And SAO can share what details they're okay with sharing here." : Definitely ! And he will ! Or maybe not, then you'll have to wait until the mod's done... (dw, you won't have to wait 2 years )

@Fair Strides I see what you mean. They are right about the deadline not being an actual deadline and SAO being too ambitious. I was just saying that it doesnt seem fair to me to reproach that when he's doing his best to make his mod exhaustive and well detailed, as SH was worried about. Especially when we'll all get the finished mod for free. And as I'm helping SAO and beta testing his mod, I consider myself "associated with the project". If you don't trust me, you can always ask him yourself what he thinks "Getting upset when called out on it is rather poor form" : Well, as far as I'm aware, no one "called out on" me "giving updates and sharing projected schedules" , and thus I didnt "get upset" about it... And yeah, I'm giving a large time range (so not very accurate, indeed) because he needs to do some more stuff such as setting HoloPatcher. Because yes, he's trying to make it compatible with K1CP and RC K1CP (not like other big mods, if you see what I mean).

I have no reason to do that. You often make constructive and good remarks. I like being able to read your advices, such as DarthParametric's. But this is just bad.
-
Bro wtf. Did you pay him to do his enormous mod ? No ? He's doing it for free, for us. So yeah, you'll have to wait a little bit more, as we all do. Furthermore, according to you, "Mod release deadlines are for those that don't care about quality". Well guess what ? He missed his deadline. You should be relieved by that...
-
@Sith Holocron Why can't you be nicer... He was just a bit too ambitious, but it will be out very soon. If you're that much against it why don't you go help SithSpecter ?
-
@DarthParametric Man you know you're annoying right? 🤣 And tbh, if I hadn't insisted that he waits until last details are taken care of and Holopatcher properly set up, it would probably already be published (or almost) 😅
-
Don't worry, sao was just a bit too ambitious. It's almost done and the beta will probably be out in a few weeks.

Coming soon as a standalone mod. I'll see with @N-DReW25 if and how we include it in RC-K1CP. You can already find this here. Apparently, this will make your work easier : "License: You may freely use, develop, and release this mod in any way you like as long as you provide due credit for everyone's work involved."

Does the crash happen directly after the dialog or during the fight ? If it's during the fight, this is a very unusual problem. I'd have no idea how to fix it. If it's right after the dialog, something must be wrong in her dialog file.

@LoneWandererI get what you mean, even though I don't agree with everything you said. As I wrote in one of the posts up there, you can definitely play with K1R, even more if you count BOSSR, which we indeed didn't talk about. Yes, people are indeed looking for restored content, for which K1R is a good solution for most once in a life time KOTOR players. From what I've understood though, there are issues with the K1R, reported by users. for example, this one : This comment was under the RC-K1CP mod and is apparently approved by many other users. This proves your point, because yes, people want restored content, but also mine in which K1R does have big issues that if you're not blind you are going to notice. So imo, people want the K1CP because it actually fixes issues that were in the vanilla game (without counting the ones K1R and BOSSR bring). People want K1R because it restores content, yes, but if you look more closely, the RC-K1CP is becoming bigger and bigger and as I said earlier, K1CP + RC-K1CP > K1R. Now BOSSR is indeed an interesting point. To be very honest though, BOSSR apparently brings many issues, especially on other devices than PC, such as mobiles. Which is why I think people are expected to play it once (the guy who did it even included a save especially to do that) and that's it. So finally, it's up to users what they prefer. This guide doesn't have any issue imo, it's just that an alternative with K1CP could be made. I think the debate K1R/K1CP is still worth it though. I might try to mess around with BOSSR files to see if I can make some kind of compatibility patch. Apparently there aren't that many issues between K1CP and BOSSR. Perhaps @DarthParametric or @N-DReW25 could do it themselves ? Edit : For BOSSR, a compatibility patch doesnt cause any permission issue (yes, it is definitely going to take time though lol), and for the drinking contest, I have permission from FairStrides. For now @LoneWanderer, you can still be right. Soon, there won't be any place for disagreement heheheha ! Oh and one more thing : @SAO1138's Sleheyron story mode will be compatible with K1CP, but I'm not sure about K1R. Pazaak Tournament incoming !

How's your installation, what mods do you have installed that could modify her dialog ?
