DrMcCoy 40 Posted August 12, 2015 So, that little viewing window (the inner part that changes while that border texture is tiled and doesn't change) must have it's size hardcoded into the game... Yeah, the GUIs in the KotOR games (and Jade Empire too) are very hardcoded. There are GUI files (which are GFF), which contain information about the layout, but they're more used as guidelines. The game executable knows about the layout of all the GUIs, and instantiates the classes for the elements. It then looks into the GUI files and only picks certain fields out of them, and applies them to the elements. Which fields are read from the GUI files also changes depending on the GUI and the elements, so it's very likely that the sizes of certain elements are hardcoded. Finding that out was actually pretty disappointing. It's just so...hacky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jorak Uln 458 Posted August 14, 2015 I have a request. When browsing through KSE (3.3.3.?) i found sth. interesting: Under "bonus feat" there was this entry: Quicken Spell. Already known from Neverwinter Nights the Automatic quicken spell enables the player to do an action every round. e.g. gameplay / combat is much faster. It would be awesome if someone could manage to implement that into Kotor/TSL - it would give the combat system totally new possibilities - Almost realtime combat with e.g. high level enemies like Sion attacking you constantly.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scoutception 17 Posted August 20, 2015 So, I was playing around with some mods concerning Revan's Robes, and I noticed that the original Revan model is actually pretty low res, especially concerning the mask and hood (I'd give screenshots, but this site apparently does not like Steam screenshots). However, all of the mods I have either don't improve the actual model or change the color scheme too much for my liking. So, I'd like to request an upscaled version of the original Revan model that keeps the original color scheme intact. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ricky92 0 Posted September 12, 2015 Hi guys! I'd really like a KOTOR1 mod that would make lightsabers' blades longer while keeping this mod's textures: http://deadlystream.com/forum/files/file/238-lightsaber-blade-replacement-pack-kotor/ So no new longsaber crystals, just have all the default blades replaced with longer ones (while keeping the mentioned textures). Could it be possible? Thanks. ps: sorry for my english, it's not my first language Edit: never mind, i found the longsaber crystals by chainz to be a very good mod, I'll stick with that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Ardvark 14 Posted September 12, 2015 Hmm, A cool looking hat mod for K1 would be awesome(*Cough* Cad Bane Hat *Cough*). Or perhaps a Cad Bane reskin for Calo? Anyway, something I'd really like to see someone make would be a Blue Anakin Skywalker Hilt. Alternatively, if there is already a mod, could someone point me in the right direction?

DarthParametric 3,777 Posted September 13, 2015 Judging by the picture, all he did was expand the core in the blade texture. Not a very complex mod, as the blade textures are just a circular gradient of the appropriate colour with a white center. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coolphoton1234 3 Posted September 13, 2015 personally I would like a full set of re-skins for *all* the guns, not just a hand full or all the sonic ones or most of the blaster. I've almost completed a full set (everything but the high-end blasters and the disrupter class weapons), but most of the mods I used were from filefront and on top of that the original moders had stopped replying there anyway. I really don't care if there Star Wars weapons I just want them to look decent. If someone knows how to contact them I can give a list of files/authors I have in the original ZIPs.

TheDarkChocolateJedi 17 Posted September 13, 2015 What would be nice to see is an Atris companion mod of some sort (an actual finished one with voice acting or putting together parts of her other lines to make new ones) and it should have a romance. Atris and Kreia's place should immediately switch as soon as meeting Atris on Telos - rather than Atris only coming into your party when Kreia leaves. It should also dive a bit deeper into the Exile and Atris' relationship as well as I said a romance of some sort (regardless of gender perhaps???!?!?) Atris should be able to teach you new abilities etc etc... And sparring with her just ... Yeah, that would be a great mod.Always thought Atris was... Attractive in some sort of way anyway so this mod would be perfect for me. (And many others!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And they look like crap.Request 2:Sorry about the double post but as this is a different request I thought I should post separately.Has anyone ever tried making some of the head gear look like the pilot head things on Neon Genesis Evangelion? I know some of them look like that but most of the good ones are high profile ad kinda hard to ignore. Or maybe make things to do with shooting look like Vakarian's (ME2+3) HUD/Monocle. I think Oldflash had a model kind of like that, but it's on a massively OP piece of equipment (+6dex,+6 to most skills, found on Peragus.) Admin: I have merged your two posts.

milestails 264 Posted September 27, 2015 I'd like to see two K1 mods: One that changes the starting class "scoundrel" to "smuggler." Just a name change in the dialog.tlk - Better matches TOR and sounds better because it is an occupation like scout and soldier. A mod that makes the PC's Bandon armor identical to how Darth Bandon's actually looks in game A previous mod on KotOR Files changed scoundrel to smuggler, but required that one replace the entire dialog.tlk file - not very convenient. Additionally, previous Bandon armor mods were complicated to install and implement. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
134340Goat 116 Posted September 27, 2015 Just thought of an interesting one For either/both games, make the Sith Mask into a Sith Helmet - that is, instead of just sticking to the character's face, have it cover their whole head Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheDarkChocolateJedi 17 Posted September 27, 2015 A nice mod that someone could do at some point is a mod that would enhance the romances in kotor2, because I really liked the romance options but the romances in k2 were more philosophical and subtle, rather than... K1s romances where there was actually a confession. There was a mod in progress for this a while back in 2006 on LF but the guy developing it disappeared.
