Blog #45 - Hangar versus Hanger

Spelling guy is back with another lesson. Whether it was me or that Star Wars movie with "Rogue" in the title, I think you might have that one firmly in your head. Now it's on to the latest spelling annoyance. Here's an example of the latest target - being used incorrectly. Oh, N-DReW25. I shake my head in disappointment. hangar ˈhaNGər/ noun noun: hangar; plural noun: hangars 1. a large building with extensive floor area, typically for housing aircraft. Correc

Whether it was Alien, V for Vendetta, Spaceballs, 1984, I, Claudius or Helloby, John Hurt graced so many movies and TV appearances it hard to pic a few. Alas, John Hurt passed away today.   Here's a brief look at some of the man's work.   John Hurt, you will be missed. RIP.

Blog #43 - R.I.P. Miguel Ferrer

Miguel Ferrer passed away yesterday. Besides the minor connection to KotOR - him being the brother of Darth Malak's voice actor - you may remember him from many TV and movie appearances. However, most people will remember him in the role of Bob Morton, the creator of Robocop.   You will be missed.

TSL Soundtrack Improvement

Most of you probably remember the KotOR soundtrack. It was truly immersive, wasn't it? I remember almost every single piece of it - it's really remarkable and hard to forget. And what can we say about soundtrack for TSL?   Dantooine   Dantooine probably got some of the best themes in the first game. It's almost impossible to find a KotOR player who doesn't remember those three themes which appeared on this planet. Many of you probably found TSL Dantooine really disappointing. It was much sma

Reminder: EU Scripting Livestream

Hello guys! I'm not sure who all just glances at the front page and doesn't read everything, so I'm repeating here the edit to the news article:   The EU Scripting Livestream will be held on Saturday January 7th at 9AM PST (UTC-8).   This is very much delayed from the US stream and I hope to avoid this long gap in the future, so I apologize for those of you who have had to wait. I hope you're still interested enough to drop by.   PS: I know I keep saying the EU stream, but this is availabl

Blog #42 - Disciple and the Holocrons

Disciple and the Holocrons . . . that sounds like a bad KOTOR cover band, doesn't it? Anyway . . .   As most of you know, there's some cut content in The Sith Lords regrading "lost holocrons" and Disciple's quest to find them all. During the quest you'd find several of them - both Jedi Holocrons and Sith Holocrons. You could gain force powers from the holocrons. It was a shame it was unreleased as it actually gave you something to actually do with Disciple - a character that racks low

Blog #41 - 3C-FD

I was playing around with Darth Sapiens' hi definition T3-M4 mod sometime ago. I had the the idea to recolor it so it could also be used 3C-FD, the temporary droid in T3's party in the prologue.     Then, I totally forgot about it. Hopefully, someone might be able to recall the name of T3-M4's texture so I can use this in the game.

Blog #40 - Seeking an illuminated keyboard

Hey folks! I need some input on a keyboard for one of my computers. The computer I'm talking about here is my old XP computer. I think my illuminated keyboard is on it's way out. Seeing as I got about 10 years out of it, it's put up a valiant fight. However, it is time to let it go. However, it being an XP computer, I'm not prepared to spend a lot of money for a new keyboard. Might you have any recommendations for an illuminated keyboard under 50 bucks (US) that you can personally recommend

A better story I think.....

A growing insurrection, led by the mysterious Count Dooku and his legion of clones, has gripped the Outer Rim Territories.               In a stunning move, Count Dooku has boldly swept into the Mid Rim region of the Republic and lays siege to the peaceful world of Naboo.               While the Republic organizes its response, Minister Ba

Republic Admiral uniforms

Okay, so this is turning into the most difficult texture job I’ve ever done. I didn’t know it when I chose the model, all I looked for was a whole chest on the texture: can’t do a Republic Admiral double breasted uniform by mirroring the left half on the right half, like so many models do.   A lot has happened to the franchise since 2003 when KotOR came out, we now have seen Old Republic Admirals in the comics, the books, but of course none of them are super consistent with what Admiral Dodon

From: Arren Kae Appearance

Source: Arren Kae Appearance  I use the Force, that is I use a Force power that runs the k_sp1_generic script, in which I temporarily put the code that will give me what I need for a scene. In this case I just needed that animation to play so I could make this video, so I went for the quick dirty solution: I hex-edited the model and temporarily changed the animation name from "intopray" to "activate", resulting in that animation playing instead of the activate (armband) animation, for which nw

Scripting Livestream Event

Hi guys! It's been long enough that I've had time to go over some things and get some feedback on my previous blog post about a scripting event. I've checked my schedule and gone over some software with Xuul and I believe I have a plan now.   The Scripting stream will be done twice. This is to accommodate both those in the United States with one schedule and the rest of the people (who mostly reside in the European timezones). Otherwise the timezones just don't match up (my 10AM is someone el

Blog #39 - Selected Track Artwork for my SWTOR Audio Drama

Sometimes, I need a long playlist to listen to when I'm running myself ragged on the treadmill. I had decided to record video of the Imperial Agent story arc when I would then convert into MP3s. After that was done, I added my own music choices. I went through the sound files to explore as many branches of character discussions so I could expand them. I even added extra NPC's on story missions - you can only have one accompany you at a time - if I felt they had something interesting or funny to

Advice about modding, no.2

Just a quick entry, with a tip I've recently rediscovered, namely: how to take screenshots without the GUI.   All you need to do to take screenshots without the GUI visible in TSL is:   1. Activate free-look mode (default keybinding is caps lock); 2. open the console and warp to your desired area.   This will load the area, but leave the console invisible. To make the console visible again, just enter and quit free-look mode again.   On an unrelated note, I have the impression from some

A Proposal for Scripting

I would like this idea to see as much light as possible, so for those that see the blog and the status update (or even the Reddit entry), please show this to anyone that might be interested.   I am considering looking into a platform like Discord to hold something akin to a livestream event. Except that there wouldn't be music or gameplay footage, though there could indeed be commentary.   If enough people would attend, I have it in my mind to hold an event where I talk about KotOR Scripting

Update on the Arren Kae mod

Finally satisfied with the look. What I did now is fix a few wayward vertexes that nobody thought were important because you couldn’t see them under that hood: eyebrows and other minor details. You might have noticed them during a Talk_Sad animation, on both Kreia’s original model and its Dark Side version. Must be one of those things they had no time to fix, because at least another model has the same problem: the Dark Side version of Atris, which was cut from the game. You can see the eyebrows

Make Peragus Fun Again! That sounds a little less like it's crossing the line to politics.. but I bet the other line caught your eye   I'm a hardcore enthusiast, so this will increase the difficulty of the Peragus (but that can be reduced by in-game difficulty setting) to a new and fun experience. But for those of us like myself, who live to challenge themselves then this is what you need!   There are Five necessary mods for Peragus, (Note: all of these mods are compatible with TSLRCM) D

Upcoming Arren Kae mod

So I made this rendering of Arren Kae, and from that came the idea of doing a version of the model that you could actually use inside the game. Now as I happen to be particular about game modifications being seamless, I decided that Arren’s apparel should for the most part resemble the Handmaiden’s robe, which is why the white robe on this model has no Jedi librarian patterns. Thought I’d still put those on the garments underneath the robe, but it’s not quite the same. Obviously I used Kreia’s m

I'll have to fly out of Kodiak today to head back to NYC early this evening - assuming that I can get out in this weather. My mother is in the hospital and isn't expected to make it. So the next week or so, I'll be a very faint presence on the forums. If you have access to my Facebook account, please don't post your well wishes on there at the moment because I'm not quite in the right mind frame for that. (You may post those thoughts here in this blog.) If you have questions to do with KOTOR stu
