pipsky Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 I just learned how to start modding KOTOR I & II today and this is my first attempt at anything of the sort. There's no real skill involved, all i did was add a skin file for Tesla's Nihilus Mask mod for TSL to get it to work in the original KOTOR and I paired it with T7's modified Revan robes (my favorite KOTOR mod to this day). I also had to change the skin for my favorite head in the game because Tesla's mask sits low on the head for some reason so you see skin through the eye holes. I changed all of the different face skins for Caucasian Male Head 1 so that my modified skin (just blacked out with yellow eyes) is when you're the darkest (the original darkest head is now 2nd darkest, and the 2nd darkest head is now the first one you see on the path to the dark side). I also changed some item properties around. I can't release this because I don't have the permission of either author (T7 and Tesla) and it sucks so much to what you guys do it probably isn't even worth it. But maybe they'll see this thread and give me the go ahead Again all credit goes to them for the robes and the mask. Any feedback you have would be much appreciated.

T7nowhere Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 You can go ahead and do what you want with the robe, I made it fair game for any modder to use in their mods a while ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipsky Posted March 22, 2005 Author Share Posted March 22, 2005 thanks! I think my next step will be to port the robes to TSL in some way or another. Do you have any tips on how I would go about doing this T7? Is there any way i can access the model w/a program like gmax (or whatever it's called) and save it in a way so that it will be compatible with TSL or would I be forced to make an entirely new robe model from scratch?

TheProphet Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 Oh, we can use the robes in our mods?!?!? Oh thank God, I was going NUTS trying to add a hood to the jedi robes. Now I can get a better pic for my Darth Trennon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just remember I can only gave for you to use the robes, if you want to release a mod with the mask you do need Tesla's permission. You might be able to convert the K1 mdl + mdx to ascii and then compile it in the k2 formatt BUT if you want to re-release it you should just redo it from the model thats in K2. To redo the robe for K2 you can use this tutorial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lorden Darkblade Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 Ohhhh very very nice man. Now a question, does that robe works in TSL? I'm after it it has like weeks. I'm just not sure if it will work in TSL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipsky Posted March 22, 2005 Author Share Posted March 22, 2005 I'm glad you guys like it! The robe is part of T7's "Revan's Mask + mod." It can be found here: http://www.pcgamemods.com/10094/ Unfortunatly the robe is not compatible with TSL at this time, but as I learn how to mod KOTOR I & II more i will try to make the robes compatible, or make a new set if I have to. It's too bad you guys only play TSL now. I picked up TSL and immediatly after I beat it I dug up my original KOTOR discs and started in on the first one (I've decided to play both games through as female because I've never done that before). Are there any major differences when you play through as the opposite sex in KOTOR or TSL? Or am I just wasting my time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Devon Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 There is a difference. There is a different romance quest, some party members will talk to you differently, there'll be different dialogue with NPCs... there are a lot of differences.

You had asked if there were any differences playing as a female character right? Emperor Devon was replying to your question from what I read....

pipsky Posted March 23, 2005 Author Share Posted March 23, 2005 whoops! I totally forgot I asked that. I just got off 9.5 hours of inventory shift at best buy and walked through the door about 15 minutes ago (it's 3:07am here) so cut me a little slack. I'm tired, sore, have paper cuts and buises up the whazoo, a blister on my pinky toe, and for some reason I can't feel my legs. Sorry for coming off as an arse before. But thanks for the input, I guess it is worth playing through as female. And one more thing, how do I recruit the disciple (do I get him instead of handmaiden or is there something special I have to do?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
