The Endar Spire has never been this beautiful. My only suggestion is to revert the color of the footlockers to their original white (or very similar). This because, while on the Endar Spire the dark color might be fine, in other places where we find footlockers they would blend against the dark environment. I am specifically thinking of Manaan underwater but also the Sith base.

I've just finished playing Manaan with your texture pack. Impressive. Congratulations! The only remark: the ocean is really too dark. I noticed I had to crank up the brightness to see where I was walking and that is not a good sign, since it was alright everywhere else.

Well, I fixed this inconsistency by making the offending item a perfect duplicate of the legit Advanced Medpac.

I will experiment more. And yes, I am using a "clean" save game.

Hello Kexikus! Yes, I noticed the typo. It wouldn't compile before changing to a non capital "n". The script is, as suggested by FS himself, been called by "OnDialogue" (so it is not in the .dlg file ) and must somehow disrupt things. Unfortunately I do not know enough to understand why it happens. The problem on my side is also that each time I want to mess with .utc files I need to change the DPI back to normal and reboot the system, making it for a very tedious process (Windows XP requires this reboot each time).

Like before, clicking on the Swoop organizer does not start any conversation and disrupts the successive interaction with object (no matter where I click, nothing happens).

Well, thanks for amending the script. I know it was a long shot but I do appreciate the effort to help. Thank you.

Unfortunately the solution above did not work. I had to put the SetCustomToken second parameter between "" for making it even compile but other than that when I tested it nothing happens when I click to initiate the dialogue. Even if it *did* start the dialogue I was thinking that the script above would not do anything to actually change the record times since the function SetTokenRaceTime is never even called within the main function. Am I wrong? I suppose I should just drop this, although it irks me...

I will gladly test this solution. Thanks for your suggestion!

Makes sense...

Well, in practice the only reason to reach Area7 is to find a computer terminal whose function are identical to that in Area12. It seems pretty useless, all considered...

Hello! I'm currently visiting the Sith Embassy in Manaan and I was wondering what the point is with Area 7. To reach that part of the map you have to go through a corridor full with lethal steam but once you reach the other side all you find is a lever to turn off the steam vents (which you could have done before slicing the Embassy computer in Area 12) and a computer terminal just like the one you find in Area 12. There is nothing else. I was wondering what the point of securing a place like this has been... Any ideas? Cheers!

I know you are busy and everyone needs your help, Fair Strides! Take your time and thanks again for your patience.

Let's see if Fair Strides might once more come to the rescue! Thanks for your help anyway though!

Here is what happens! ( ) I am very happy with it. You did say that the texture was used elsewhere though. Having this modification will cause problems elsewhere? Cheers!

Thank you a lot! I will test this very soon and report to you!

Fair Strides explains the reason here. In short, the k_inc_* files (from what I understand) are just libraries that are called by other scripts to allow for the use of extra functions. Compiling an include file does not produce anything.

Well, thanks again for the precious insight and advice. I do not know whether or not it looks like this for everyone but I am pretty sure that when I played the game years ago I did have less graphic issues than I am experiencing now so I am pretty sure drivers are to blame for some things (no idea if this applies here). Since I know nothing about hex editing and modelling I fear I can do little myself to remedy this situation but your last suggestion is more than intriguing: hiding the platform itself sounds a simple and elegant solution, if it does indeed work.

Oh I see... Very interesting, DarthParametric! Thank you for showing me. I suppose there is nothing that can be done then?

No, not at all. I am talking about the landing pad itself, including the sidewalls.

Kexikus, from the little I understand, I cannot make a .ncs file of the above .nss file. That's the problem... In theory, I could extract the whole scripts.bif file where k_inc_man.nss is, change it there and then replace the original scripts.bif in the /Data folder of the game but I wonder if it is even possible to repack extracted files into a new .bif? Alternatively, I would need to find the file in the game that does use the SetTokenRaceTime function included in k_inc_man.nss and change the time constants there. But the problem here is, what file is that?

I would gladly try but I am unsure about how to proceed with it. It's a k_inc_* file... This same file has the following: void SetTokenRaceTime(int nToken, int nRacerTime) { // calculate the time components int nMinutes = nRacerTime/6000; int nSeconds = (nRacerTime - (nMinutes * 6000)) / 100; int nFractions = nRacerTime - ((nMinutes * 6000) + (nSeconds * 100)); //building the time string string sTime = IntToString(nMinutes) + ":"; if (nSeconds < 10) { sTime = sTime + "0"; } sTime = sTime + IntToString(nSeconds) + ":"; if(nFractions < 10) { sTime = sTime + "0"; } sTime = sTime + IntToString(nFractions); SetCustomToken(nToken,sTime); } I believe this part is what creates the actual CUSTOM tokens used in the swoop racing dialogues in Manaan. I should find the script that uses the function SetTokenRaceTime... But how do I find it?

Hello! I am in Manaan and while playing the Swoop Racing minigame, I am reminded of how useful it would be to have a chance of tweaking a little the record times (especially here in Manaan) to give more meaning to the "amateur", "semipro", "professional" racing class by making the time difference more prominent. I noticed how in the file k_inc_man there is this: int QUEEDLE_TIME = 3012; int CASSANDRA_TIME = 2702; int JAX_TIME = 2548; int CHAMP_TIME = 2348; Does anyone know whether or not this is what needs modifying? Is there something else I should be looking for? Thanks!

Hello! I personally consider the original graphic/visual of Knights of the Old Republic to be very nice but this one is really making my eyes sore (each time I play this part I tend to think that there is some graphic glitch with my video card). I am showing a picture of the track before the goal line. Not bad. I especially like the KotOR textures for water. But this... ...instead is really bad. I was wondering if there is anyone who might like to do something about it? I don't know what textures in particular would need changing but possibly it is more than one... Thanks for the attention!
