Prime Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 I've started converting the old KOTOR Stormtrooper mod to TSL. This mod gives the player armour and a helmet. I've also started on the sith trooper replacement, but there seems to be more entries in appearance.2da this time. I've found a few entries for the Sith commandos, but I don't know if there are others. Does anyone know what the ones are for the beast masters and such? I'd hate to miss some so if anyone can add to the list it would help. Anyway, here is a shot of the player armour and sith replacement...
SuperSquall Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Very good looking and very impressive in terms of technical skill. My only criticism would be the size of the helmet. It seems to be a little large from those screens, but it could just be me. Regardless - absolutely stunning work.
RedHawke Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Very, very nice Prime! Originally posted by SuperSquall My only criticism would be the size of the helmet.

Unfortunately this is necissary because if you make it too small the various PC/NPC head models will clip through the helmet in places... especially with certain heads and their hair.

I thought that might be the reason, but wasn't this avoided before by just replacing the head with a stormtrooper based head model? (not that that solution would be without drawbacks)

(not that that solution would be without drawbacks) No... the clipping issue when the helmet model is too small was present before in KOTOR. You cannot change your PC's head by donning a helmet, the closest thing would be a disguise but that changes the body as well. From what I remember the fixed head was the method used for replacing the Sith Soldiers only, being they all used one merged body/head model and the Stormtroopers would need a head and a body for their appearance.

As to the appearance entries most all of them are probably the same as before. I really can't think of any new entries added for the sith trooper appearance. I could have missed one but I doubt it me and app.2da have gotten real friendly of late.
Ellderon Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 OWNAGE! I know Gscc will want to usye this one...

This is correct. The player helmet is larger so that it covers all the various PC heads. The sith replacement head is smaller because it is a straight head replacement and so there are no size issues.
RebelScum! Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Nice work Prime! Loved the Kotor1 one, im sure this will be awesome ®.

I really can't think of any new entries added for the sith trooper appearance. I could have missed one but I doubt it me and app.2da have gotten real friendly of late. I know there are some new ones since I've already altered the entries that exist in KOTOR and yet some default troopers remain. I've found three entries for sith commandos, but I don't know if these cover the kind known as beast masters or if they use the sith armour. I'll try altering those three and see what happens, but I'd like to hear about others if people know of any...
TheProphet Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Hey Prime, now that you have ported this over to TSL like you said you wanted to, may we use it in our mod Rise of the Sith? It's got stormtroopers in it and its just not the same without the real thing. We would give you proper credit too.
Mono_Giganto Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Looks great Prime, I loved this in K1. Feel free to use my E-11 too if you want.
Prime Posted March 18, 2005 Author Posted March 18, 2005 I think I have everything working now. In the areas I've tried I haven't encountered any bugs. However, I'd like one or two people to beta test it to help make sure I didn't miss anything. And thanks Mono, I'd like to enclude the blaster. Right now I don't have the PC stormtrooper armour as an ingame item. It is only available through cheats. Would people prefer to find it during the course of the game? I'll have to figure out how to do that...
stamen Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 Hi, Prime, I love your work. I also expecting the converted republic clone troopers, commandos. Am I so greedy? ^^
Mav Posted March 18, 2005 Posted March 18, 2005 Prime, In-game placement is always a good thing, the easiest way would be to make it createable at the workbench can't wait for the mod awesome work.
coloneill Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 awsome, i love the mod for KotOR, ill definatly be using it in KotOR II btw, will you be converting your set of Clone Trooper armour and helmets to KotOR II?
Colma Adawin Posted March 19, 2005 Posted March 19, 2005 GIMME GIMME GIMME!! prime. dont take this the wrong way, but, i love you j/k i REALLY dislike the original sith / republic troopers, so this is an EXCELLENT change!!! CAN'T WAIT!!!!! i'll be the first of many to download this. good luck for the future! MattCole PS thank you (prime)
Prime Posted March 19, 2005 Author Posted March 19, 2005 I think the replacement part is finished, but I still have more testing to do. I also still have to learn how to place the items porperly. After I get that done I'll release it... Originally posted by coloneill btw, will you be converting your set of Clone Trooper armour and helmets to KotOR II? Yes I will be. And I'm planning on including some additions from Episode 3.

Prime Posted March 21, 2005 Author Posted March 21, 2005 I now have the armour and helmet creatable at the workbench. I just have to make the E-11 creatable and do a bit more testing to do and then it will be finished.

Trippy Posted March 22, 2005 Posted March 22, 2005 I can't wait for this to be available. Or is it already, and I'm looking at the wrong site...? Either way, your work is simply amazing. Can't wait to put them in the game.
