  1. Super curious why IGN decided to upload "1080p" KOTOR cutscenes today and post them on the front page..

      They actually are better. Korriban doesn't look too bad when you view the planet itself.

      Can these be downloaded for ingame or is it just the IGN vid?

      Just the IGN video. Guy on kotor subreddit said they looked like they were just upscaled.

  2. The season 2 finale was really really great, except for the lightsaber copters. Otherwise, a great hour of television. Season 3 looks to be nearing clone wars quality, we'll see. I think it's almost certain either Traya or Revan will be canonized.
  3. I believe that it's just an avatar of the light side. It reminds me strongly of the sister in the Mortis arc of TCW, who was herself an avatar of the light. I really feel like it'll be Traya, or a new character based on her. Pablo Hidalgo said that the Rule of two was practiced before Bane, but Bane made it mean only one pair. Maybe Traya learned from her mistake of having the Triumvirate. If it wasn't for both Nihilus and Sion working together she likely wouldn't have been overpowered as we see in that cutscene at the Trayus Core. Idk, I hope it's Traya though. I think you're spot on, I believe Traya mentioned wanting to end the force because she hated it, and since all living things feel the force in some way, that would require all life to be ended, right?
  4. It was a really great episode. Maul especially stood out, his corruption of Ezra was much better than most depictions of similar scenarios in the Star Wars universe. also who freaking cares about Malachor's depiction. Look at it this way, if the dark side ending to kotor 2 is canon in the new universe then the temple seen in Rebels could have been built by the Exile, and that's Kreia's holocron. There, now toughen up and get over "muh EU". Like Doctor Evil said 75% of it was complete crap.
  5. They've already ruined BvS for me by revealing Wonder Woman and Doomsday stopping the fight. Also hipster Lex is just not doing it for me.
  6. You can pick up a smart phone for less than $50
  7. Questionably legal, yes. Illegal? There's no real precedent, most don't want to take the risk and comply with a cease and desist. Looks like they've got some work into it, so I'm giving the project the benefit of the doubt.
  8. I'm cautiously hopeful that it'll be finished. Very few have ever seen release.
  9. As NW Script is built on C, speaking from a C standpoint...You can't define a function as a parameter. Your first parameter in the declaration of JC_SUB_HERE should be the return of the function or a pointer to it, not the function itself. From what I've read of the language, action is a predefined pointer, and that's why it works in that regard, but the language won't allow you to declare pointers yourself. So the easiest way I could think to pull off what you're wanting to do would be to do something like this: void JC_SUB_1() { //Subroutine contents } void JC_SUB_2() { //Another subroutine, why not } void JC_SUB_TRIGGER(int JC_SUB_HERE, object oObject, float fDuration, float fInterval) { int nDuration = FloatToInt(fDuration / fInterval); int i; for( i = 0; i < nDuration; i++ ) DelayCommand(IntToFloat(i) * fInterval, AssignCommand(oObject, switch (JC_SUB_HERE){ case 1: JC_SUB_1(); break; } )); } void main() { //Our first subroutine, with a duration of 5 seconds and an interval of one quarter of a second... JC_SUB_TRIGGER(1, OBJECT_SELF, 5.0, 0.25); //And later in the script, let's have the second subroutine, with a duration of 2 seconds and an interval of one tenth of a second... DelayCommand(30.0, JC_SUB_TRIGGER(2, OBJECT_SELF, 2.0, 0.1)); } Although I'm not sure that level of nesting would work, if not you could also try.. void JC_SUB_1() { //Subroutine contents } void JC_SUB_2() { //Another subroutine, why not } void JC_SUB_TRIGGER(int JC_SUB_HERE, object oObject, float fDuration, float fInterval) { int nDuration = FloatToInt(fDuration / fInterval); int i; switch(JC_SUB_HERE){ case 1: for( i = 0; i < nDuration; i++ ) DelayCommand(IntToFloat(i) * fInterval, AssignCommand(oObject, JC_SUB_1() )); break; case 2: for( i = 0; i < nDuration; i++ ) DelayCommand(IntToFloat(i) * fInterval, AssignCommand(oObject, JC_SUB_2() )); break; } } void main() { //Our first subroutine, with a duration of 5 seconds and an interval of one quarter of a second... JC_SUB_TRIGGER(1, OBJECT_SELF, 5.0, 0.25); //And later in the script, let's have the second subroutine, with a duration of 2 seconds and an interval of one tenth of a second... DelayCommand(30.0, JC_SUB_TRIGGER(2, OBJECT_SELF, 2.0, 0.1)); }
  10. c++ is one of the defacto beginner languages (along with Java), and learning it would lay the foundation for more easily learning other OOP languages. It's also incredibly robust, fast, and can be used for just about anything. On a higher level, it can be incredibly complicated and confusing with pointers, objects, and operating overloading. I'd go for C++ over C# any day. Learning one would lay the foundation to learning the other, anyway.
  11. so like a majority of programmers then, eh? lol.
  12. After The Old Republic Twitter retweeting an article about the Malachor connection I'm thinking they are actually planning some connection or canon.
  13. In the TV series she stars in, Scream Queens she wears her hair like Leia in A New Hope, maybe her way of telling people she was in the movie before it released. Also, yeah, I liked how they didn't do a really epic skilled fight scene, I thought from the movie it was pretty well done that Finn and Rey both were amauters at lightsaber dueling.
  14. 90% of the EU was a stinking pile of feces, so yay for it being gone! Anyway, as Leonard said nothing in Star Wars is truly orginial, besides maybe art style. I did find TFA to have relied too heavily on nostalgia and OT throwbacks, but that didn't make it a terrible movie. Just like KOTOR borrowing very heavily from the saga doesn't make it a terrible game, it just makes TSL a better one.
  15. He's definitely not Kylo Ren. I believe something happened that made him either fall to the dark side or abandon his ideals temporarily. Kylo may be his son, that I find believable.
  16. Very happy to see you back, vurt. Your ebon hawk has been in my override since you released it.
  17. That's a great take on things, I think. I don't think we need any specific reason to go to Coruscant, it's the Jedi HQ, their home, where their biggest archives are, where most were taught, etc. Weapons, knowledge, possible allies. naturally Jedi are going to be attracted to go back there. Smart Bounty Hunters would know this and plan accordingly. The Baron Do, Matukai, Jal Shey, and the Zeison Sha would all be viable organizations of force users to include, and I think all would have reason to investigate the temple in the absence of Jedi.
  18. Good Luck! Don't let people discourage you, remember that many of the things now done in modding were once said to be impossible.
  19. I have 7, 8.1, and 10. Also have 4-cd, DVD, and steam versions.
  20. Are you doing Game Design as a technical degree, ala Full Sail, DeVry, etc, as a concentration in a different subject area such as Computer Science, Writing, etc, or something different?
  21. These look really good, nice work.
  22. Any KOTOR remake likely would be created using the Frostbite engine, and therefore wouldn't have mod support.
  23. I agree with SiC, honestly they don't look very darkside-like. Just looks like he's aged a bit.
  24. Has anyone given thought to a "DeadlyStream" plug in or something with the "must have" mods built into one package?

      M4-78EP 1.2, TSL NPC Overhaul, VPs small mods, SLM from Kaidon Jorn, all of Hassat Hunter and Sith Holocron's mods, to me they're a mandatory installation.

      Yeah, Leonard true. I was imagining a community involvement type deal where people could vote and express what they'd like to see. The big benefit is that it could be released to steam and allow workshop users to have multiple mods without screwing up their game.
