I am sorry to report that the modification has been not working properly for a number of users due to some timing issue which did not occur to me when testing on my work computer. Now the soft lock reported should no longer happen to anyone. Those that have a game going and are using the K1 CP a new installation is not needed. It is enough to drop the updated k_ctar_ptyrdy.ncs file into the Override folder. Those that do not use the K1 CP instead must drop in the Override folder the following files as well: cp_tar08cam01.mdl, cp_tar08cam01.mdx, cp_s_calonordtar.mdl, and cp_s_calonordtar.mdx. Many apologies to those of you who were subject to this unpleasant experience.

At the moment, I'm away and won't be able to check back with you, but of course I'll have you take a look at my changes and let you decide for yourself if anything is of any interest. But I made my changes straight into the single files rather than updating the installer. Locally, I had no need for that. Keep up the good work! 😀

Thanks for your reply, AxConsortium! I appreciate your time spent to elaborate. I have locally made some small custom adjustments to help a little extra in regards to the player's task of returning Nemo's remains to Deesra. Please don't discount your direction and choice here because while not clearly ideal is really the second best option. As I said, I have made a few changes, however, which you're very welcome to use in a future version of this modification if you ever wish to. Before telling you about it, I would recommend submitting your work to Snigaroo's KotOR Mod Build because it would fit very well in the immersion section there. Now, what I did was to polish the already very decent text and swap a few VO choices (I noticed many instances of grts VO when different ones seemed to fit better, particularly in regards to the text's length). But I also rewrote the trigger script for Deesra. This was due to the fact that I wanted the Player to be informed early about Deesra's role in the enclave adding a line of dialogue where he mentions chronicling the enrollments and the passing of the Jedi at the enclave. This gives more solid ground to the decision of bringing Nemo's body to him rather than the Council. But in order to do that I had to initiate the conversation so that it'd trigger as soon as you get past him after arriving in Dantooine. Originally that trigger is only starting the conversation after the Player has advanced the Dantooine plot far enough. Now this happens twice instead. Again, these minor changes have not yet been tested, but shouldn't present any particular issues. Cheers!

@AxConsortium, I would like to report something after thanking you for making this interesting small modification that for the most part neatly integrate itself into the original game. I have not yet tested it in-game because I am still verifying the content manually to refine some of the included text. In the dan15_nemocorpse.dlg file there is Entry 3 and Entry 4 as children to Reply 1. Entry 3 has the conditional script "c_dan_nemof_done" as trigger. The problem is that both Entry 3 and Entry 4 have identical purpose with no text and an active script ("dan15_takenemo") making them two identical entries. What is it you wanted to have different? The way it is now, having two entries that do exactly the same thing does not make any sense. EDIT: My bad, I did not at first notice that the Quest entry is what is different: 10 in one case and 11 in the other! The only problem I see is that returning Nemo's body to Deesra, rather than the Council, is convenient and smart as it does not require additional voice over acting for the Dantooine Jedi Masters, but is conceptually a bit weak because I don't see why Deesra should be the one to report to. Cheers!

I think darker colours in general is a theme for our Dark Hope and I respect both her talent and preference, but I agree with Sith Holocron and perhaps am even more a fan of BioWare's generic choice of much lighter textures. Even because darker ones do contrast significantly with the lighter colours of the world textures... unless they're also replaced with darker ones of course.

Yes, I have remedied this locally as part of my ongoing solo project, but at the moment I can't remember exactly what I did. But it was mainly some dialogue tweaks. Edit: Actually what I did was exactly what I wrote I intended to do in my post above. It turned out fine (tested, too).

Okay, DP has no bedside manners, but he was helping out concretely and not trying to kick a fellow modder out of here or suggest they should stop with their work. Personally I wish I had the modeling skill of @Kaidon Jorn, but that doesn't say much. I hope you will reconsider or that your message was just ironic the way I originally interpreted it. I was in fact about to react with the laughing emoji before reading other people's comments and your second message.

Is there something weird in the texture of the skin? Or is it supposed to be like that? EDIT: Oh I guess, it should be burn marks? The skin texture is different than in your earlier screenshots, isn't it Dark Hope?

Well, the original games were developed with 4:3 resolution in mind. KotOR more than TSL, I think... So no, the camera shots should not be framed for 16:9. Another matter is what modders do. The K1 CP does frame shots for assuming 16:9 resolution. Probably TSLRCM, too. But I played the sequel (with TSLRCM) only once several years ago, so I could not really say.

There are a few mods that probably assume that everyone is playing on a 16:9 widescreen nowadays. I, like you, play at a 4:3. The possible issues are mainly aesthetics with cameras shot being framed for a 16:9 picture, from what I understand. I don't have any info instead about playing the game at 4:3 custom resolutions.

Dear Dark Hope, I am sure I share everyone's sentiment here saying that we wish for all russians to have one day the freedom they deserve. Unfortunately, it seems to me that the world has been going too often in the opposite directon the latest years. Especially some countries. May your child be born to see a better future. All the best!

Well, considering my comment at the link I can't say I'm surprised.

I'd be interested to know the answer to Sith Holocron's question as well.
