Looks like you edited the .git file....Gff editor corrupts the cameras in the .git file. To correct this, you'll need tk102's CAMedit (there is a download link in the Guide for the Newbie Sticky). It'S very easy to use and the whole thing takes 2 minutes max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth333 Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 here is the readme. Looks like TK forgot to add it in the download version at pcgamemods: Knights of the Old Republic -------[ CamEdit ]--------- Text-based CameraList Editor Purpose: -------- To provide support for editing the CameraList of GIT Files, including Position and Orientation. These fields are normally corrupted by GFF Editor. This application assumes you are familiar with GIT files and the CameraList field. How To Use: ----------- Extract CamEdit.exe to wherever you want. You can drag a .git file onto CamEdit or launch it on its own. CamEdit is menu-driven. Type the number of the selection you wish to make. You have the following options: 1) Open Existing GIT <-- only option available unless GIT file is open 2) Edit Camera List 3) Save CameraList to text file 4) Import CameraList as GFF file 5) Export CameraList as GFF file 6) Save GIT File 7) Close GIT File Other functions may appear listed as letters in green. a) ADD a new CameraList entry d) DELETE this Entry g) GO BACK one level x) Exit The text menu header appears in yellow and displays the current file that is open. Below that in white is location of where you are in the menu structure. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Camera List ~~~~~~~~~~~ Option 2 dislpays the camera list structure of the current GIT file. This is a list of the camera structs, identified by CameraID. You can select a number from the list to get the details of the camera or you can add a new camera. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Cameras ~~~~~~~~~~~ Selecting a camera from the list will bring up the Camera menu, displaying the current properties for the selected camera. The properties for cameras are: 0) CameraID 1) Position 2) Orientation 3) FieldOfView 4) Height 5) Pitch 6) MicRange Position is given as 3 values, X, Y, and Z whose units appear to be meters. Orientation is listed as 4 values whose units appear to be radians. You can select any property to edit it, or you choose to delete the selected camera altogether. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Output to Text File ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Option 3 from the main menu provides an easy way to make the entire CameraList readable. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Importing/Exporting CameraList as GFF file ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Option 4 and 5 provide a means of preserving the original cameralist data, allowing the user to use GFF Editor to modify other portions of the GIT file and then restore the original cameralist. The CameraList is saved in GFF format, but should not be opened by GFF Editor (it will corrupt the file if saved). --tk102 Version History: v0.0.0.1 - Apr 28, 2004 - New! v0.0.0.2 - Apr 28, 2004 - fixed various bugs v0.0.0.3 - Apr 28, 2004 - Added output to text file functionality v0.0.0.4 - Apr 28, 2004 - Added import/export CamList functionality v0.0.0.5 - May 15, 2004 - Ignores SIGALARM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BountyHUNTER12 Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Originally posted by Darth333 no one. For now, gff is your only choice. What about NWNEditor? It is an alternative. Does it corrupt. I still use CAMEDIT with it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh? what do you mean by "it won't let me save"? Could you be more precise? When there is an error message, pls post it and if not describe the problem in a complete manner. Otherwise we can't help. Try opening CAMedit with a command line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWNEditor is a GFF editor modified in it's appearance with a new name. Apart this and an improved copy/paste function, it is exactly the same and it has the same problems with Kotor as the other GFF editors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
