  1. and I think you'll see in August that I was right about Revan also! I haven't played TOR more than a couple hours a month since around last Nov, this may interest me enough to come back.
  2. AS of 2.9 it will only be a flashpoint, it may be more in the future, sure. I'm predicting the 4th flashpoint in the series will be Lehon/Rakata Prime/Unknown World. By the way, SH, convinced my post that's locked is correct or do we have to wait till 2.9 releases :3
  3. Manaan Flashpoint pretty much confirmed
  4. http://www.swtor.com/blog/kotor-manaan Things are shaping up.
  5. Hmm, kept just flashing me back to the same page without dling anything, and the kotortool link showed as not found. Maybe it's firefox? If that's no trouble for you, I would appreciate it. Otherwise I'll try it tomorrow on my desktop.
  6. I want to start modding, but I do not know what tools to download. Most of the ones listed on starwarsknights.com are dead links. How should I get started, where can I get these tools?
  7. Make sure you're running it as administrator. After that, if you're still not able, try moving the files to a different folder (ie desktop) and try accessing them. If that fixes it, then its the same issue. You may want to disable the UAC on your pc if this is the case, as you'll likely run into the problem more.
  8. Install it somewhere other than program files, many files in program files are given read only access to programs(yes, sometimes even their own files!, common problem with Skyrim tools) which sounds like it may be the cause of your issues.
  9. Just some suggestions for security: Is there a way to play Pazaak? I'm not sure if anyone on the K1 ebon plays, it's been years since I've played. ("online" pazaak through a terminal), but if they don't, or if you can't bet them.. A place to place bets on fighters? (maybe uniquely created fighters, or generic like "5 kath hounds vs jedi padawan")? (both? gambling station?) iunno. I've always wanted a better hawk, I like populated ships, shame this is for k1, but it'll be a definite download when I replay.
  10. I like the normal, and the last, but I don't like the middle eyes honestly. Could do with more yellow hue.
  11. Is it just like a document of binary code that you're needing translated to ASCII or what?
  12. There's still absolutely no reasoning to believe that its a new game at all. The job posting just backs up that it will be TOR. The last two expansions were referred to as unannounced projects, and there are two more on the horizon. One of which will raise the level cap and feature major changes to the combat system. In a game constantly adjusting their combat system and class balancing it seems likely they'd hire a lead combat design, yes? The only thing that says anything about a new game is an article of blind speculation from a non-reputable reporting site.
  13. Hassat, Bioware is a brand now, nobody at Bioware Austin has had anything to do with any game but TOR. Dragon Age can't really redeem them since this bioware is a completely different studio.
  14. Yeah, that Bioware one is a tad silly. An "unannounced project" does not mean a new star wars game. It's probably TOR's new expansion.
  15. This sounds like it might pertain to your situation, if it does it sounds like SiC has the answer.
  16. Hey, I really like this head. I may use it in place of dopak.
  17. You could release your redux textures for K1 Then go with the installer type thing mentioned earlier.
  18. Please don't abandon this project EVER!!!! lol, I really enjoy your work and it would be a shame if you didn't finish it! Great work on those telos textures.
  19. and like I mentioned, been done for Morrowind in both Oblivion and Skyrim. If I'm not mistaken there was also a similar project for Dark Forces -> Jedi Knight, not sure what happened to it though.
  20. Doomsday scenarios that wouldn't hold up for 500, alex. The fact is that they have sponsored violations of the EULA by creating the Holowan Laboratories, I don't see anything holding up in court by trying to enforce it on one party while the company didn't follow it themselves. but anyway, I still don't see anything wrong by use of an installer as I mentioned earlier, as it requires that the user have both games and we already know some around here already have small port mods in use themselves.
  21. I've seen other mod teams from other games (such as the Elder Scrolls community) get around it by creating an installer to be directed to the installation of the other game and copying assets from it. Really the actual legality is the distribution of the games assets with the intention of using them in other games, mostly they don't want you recreating all of K1 inside of K2 so people don't buy K1. Morroblivion were porting Morrowinds assets to the Oblivion version of Gamebyro, until Bethesda sent a C&D and explained it was because some of the textures had been contracted out, those they had to recreate but still used everything else through the way I mentioned above. If we're going to be honest, EULAs don't hold up in court, especially when it also says not to create custom levels for this game, and not to edit assets when there is a company sponsored forum for just this. Bottom line is that they're not going to spend the money to SUE someone over it, worst that could ever happen is that they would send a C&D to you and ask anyone hosting mod to take it down.
  22. I agree with SiC, unless it's a mechanical failure of your HDD loading a linux distro on a disc or portable drive and booting it is probably your best option. Although having no information besides a disc failure is impossible to troubleshoot, if you need any in-depth help with it start another topic(I don't want to spam this one) and we'll see what we can do. If I'm not mistaken, it's the other way around. Linux and OS X are cousins in a way.
  23. that cause his ship to slightly rock. Amazing how someone who people say was one of the most powerful sith lords ever can be instantly KO'd by a thump.
