By the way, DP, I noticed that the stunt model doesn't really look like the standard blaster that comes with SithSpecter's mod. How so?

I'd say we can be happy with the latest version. I was thinking that everytime the game uses the CreateItemOnFloor() function there'll be the same problem, right?

Oh, right. You wouldn't mind providing another model to test?

Okay, there are good and bad news in my latest test as you can see from the picture: changing the mesh below world zero was a good idea because now the blaster is definitely closer to the floor. On the other hand, there is a weird 4 color cylinder to the left of the gun.

Unfortunately, same result even with the alternate script. Just for testing, I swapped the blaster with a sword and it floats as well. I guess it may be the function itself, then? I tried to use CreateObject() using the original location and the alternate location for the item to spawn, but nothing appears at all in that case.

Just tested it. The shadow is still there.

Yeah, I figured. Not that BioWare has been shy about showing objects clipping through the ground in this game but l guess this is a less bad alternative. But l think it's better to create a custom model with shadows disabled for this cutscene.

After several years, I return to post about a possible bug. When you are watching the duel between Deadeye Duncan and Gerlon Two-Fingers, Deadeye drops his blaster. During the cutscene, you can see a close up of the blaster on the ground. All is fine with the original model, but for some reason, using the high quality blaster model from this mod, the blaster seems to lie a little bit over the ground. Actually, it may just be that both blasters aren't properly on the ground but the high definition model simply projects its shadow while the original blaster doesn't. The pictures down here illustrate. I checked the position where it spawns (BP_GUN_SPAWN) and its Z position is set at 0.12, but even changing it to 0 there is no difference. Has somebody any idea about what's going on?

Well, after some research and a talk with N-DReW-25, I could recreate the model and remove the issue. As a bit of background history, the model was originally included in SpaceAlex K1 Enhancement Pack modification. N-DReW-25 told me the texture applied to it uses K1's original head model for Mekel. After a simple converstion and test, I'm glad to report that a fixed model was produced. I attach it here, just in the unlikely case someone may have a use for it. comm_h_m.mdl comm_h_m.mdx

Hello! I have a model file (attached here) for a KotOR head that has some issues which were described to me as something that's likely to do with smoothing groups produced by MDLedit. A procedure to fix them was presented to me but it requires 3D Max, which I don't have, and when I tried to see if something could be done with Blender, I downloaded the software and KotORBlender for the first time and immediately regretted it as it seems the latest main version isn't even compatible with the latest version of KotORBlender, if I understood correctly. The problem is self evident when looking around the mouth area and, less egregiously, around the eyes. The following pictures should clarify: Apparently, this can be fixed in 3ds Max by selecting the inside of the mouth/eyes and giving them a different group than the outside. Could someone help me out by fixing my model? Thanks! comm_h_m.mdx comm_h_m.mdl

Kexikus, people like me that use jc2's Camera Mod version 2 have a problem with your signature on skyboxes. Ironically, this version of the modification was recommended by jc2 himself to be used to enjoy HD skyboxes like yours: VERSION 2: Only modifies the player's ability to look straight up and straight down. If you have any High Quality Skyboxes or HQ texture mods for Kotor 1, then you might want to be able to see all of them without wasting time moving your player to the farthest side of the map, just to look up. But this is what I see when I look up at the Tarisian sky from Upper City South:

Yes, unfortunately the "add column to .2da files and make them work" has always been a modding pipedream. 😔

Hi! Would you consider complete the package by offering a reskin of Malak's head before turning to the Dark Side (N_JediMalekH01)? Thanks!

Nothing compared to how long another much anticipated modification has been brewing. 😁
