  1. Nothing planned for TSL. That being said, I've kicked around ideas in the past.
  2. No more new content. We're really just bug-fixing for now (which won't be for much longer, as the mod really works great already). And as soon as one of the original modders that worked on it has some free time, we will be re-doing and updating some of the custom levels to make use of new techniques that weren't possible back then. Also, it will be a 2.0 version with everything combined into one installer.
  3. If memory serves, you should be safe. Other than the message about your ruined map under the Jekk'Jekk Tar, I can't think of anything important.
  4. Highly debatable. I'd be inclined to say "No", but other people might be inclined to say "Yes."
  5. It'd be the bark bubble .gui file, but if you were to get rid of this, you'd be disabling every instance of one-line dialogs in the game (signs, random NPCs, descriptive dialog from placeables or doors, .etc)...
  6. Yeah. The game would most likely find the first instance of that row label and then never find the row you intended it to find.
  7. The name column is a reference to a TLK entry that will be the name of the baseitem group. The only conflict issue would be if the row indexes/numbers were the same.
  8. Package the files up a .zip or .7z archive.
  9. I replied to your PM two days ago.

  10. 1) In addition to what Hassat Hunter said about the texture references, also make sure the model's name (near the very beginning of the model) matches the .mdl file's name (double-check that the names match AND that the number of characters is the exact same). 2) Try setting the cameraheightoffset in the appearance.2da row to ****.
  11. But then you lose all of the feats, powers, skills, attributes, and the actual level...
  12. If KotOR 2, check out the various prop .uti files. The last two or three letters before the numbers in the filename hint at the weapon type (like "qs" in "propqs01.uti" is a quarterstaff).
  13. I assume you mean the big picture on the rigtht-hand side of the screen is the one that isn't changing. Because the portrait.2da does have columns for DS transitions. Only way you could potentially fake it is the EffectDisguise or the Disguise item property, but I forget if that affects the portraits or not. As it is, you could try making a .utc for the opposite alignment, but you can't transfer anything besides equipment and experience...
  14. If I've got you right, journal entry aside, you're having issue getting into the Lower City. Either dump Carth off at the apartment or go back to the apartments for the other suit of armor (go to the cantina for a party if you have already did the interrogation).
  15. I need Beta Testers. Please PM me for details.
  16. Oh, you suggested Microprose! So can I throw Master of Orion 2: Battle at Antares into the Remake Pool?
  17. Thank you very much. HH is right in that he's already a party member at that point. Mostly, I'm trying to track down all of his different .utc files to see and make sure that I edit everything right in the installer in such a way that I don't overwrite files in the game by putting them in override.
  18. Grandmaster Acturus is currently doing a KotOR 1 LP, with a KotOR 2 LP planned as well. Uncut (full commentary): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8pKoXy5bbddi3g1_W9TGMJafTcBf88NM Cut (No commentary during cutscenes and movies): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8pKoXy5bbddtywvR6qIj1m9kS3xnR67O
  19. Not sure about the issue (that was going by the Mod Compatibility List for TSLRCM in the TSLRCM section; quoted almost word for word). As far as enemy only, you could feasibly go through and add faction checks that the object is of a faction hostile to the Friendly_1 and Friendly_2 factions, but I'm not really sure.
  20. As far as how the tool works, the TXT->TLK does this as far as the text goes: Example entry: String 38542: Flags: Sound: Yes SoundLength: 0.0 Text Present: Yes Audio: Text: Get Items ---------- And the code: Going by the code, I'm 99% sure I'm counting characters and not bytes.
  21. Not entirely sure what happened, but something didn't go right in the conversion. So the offsets are, well, off.
  22. So if a new player searched "KotOR 2 patch" on Google to find patches for the game, they must automatically be interested in modding if they find TSLRCM? For reference, the third result on that Google search is an ultimate guide to patching, fixing, and restoring KotOR 2 (words like "Ultimate", "fixing", and "patching" might draw the user's eye) which links to PC Gaming Wiki (here) and tells users about the TSLRCM... But they weren't interested in modding. They just wanted to patch and fix their game. See above. I will also mention that fixing bugs, which you say the mod "happens, among other things, to fix", was high up on the mod's priority list besides restoring content. I've already given evidence above of how a new user would find the TSLRCM by complete accident, without even trying to find mods. Just a click's distance away? Then let's go remove all direct links to TSLRCM across the internet and make people have to do five or more clicks. After all, having a single click is just a concession that can be taken away, at it'd be fair to everybody... And you assume that any different feelings must be positive and approving. You can be negative and not be bitter or evil. It's a prime seat for watching both halves of the show. I brought popcorn, too. You should, but that doesn't mean everyone should be forced to pick a side, or do as GrandmasterArcturus has and accuse people who don't care or do nothing. There are extremes that should be avoided. Seeing as he's acting as a maintainer of TSLRCM and not as an individual... yes. Do really want to say that one's sympathy is directly related to whether or not one agrees? Do you have any idea how asinine that sounds?
  23. Post those parts from the .txt file, as well as the top section.
  24. Well, you'd need to time each line and enter a second or so after the line's duration. Obviously, it'd vary from person-to-person on reading speed, though.
