TheGreatXL Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Alot of other people seem to enjoy having a WIP thread to give updates and ask for suggestions. I wanted to do the same. The biggest problem with me is that I get very distracted. I'll be working on one mod and an idea will pop into my head, so I'll start another. Maybe this WIP thread can keep things straight for me. PC Head Reskins: [20% Complete] I've already made a NPC reskin mod, and I thought that doing a PC reskin mod would be fun too. This mod isn't a top priority, it is just something I'll work on when I have time. I'm going to do the portraits for all of the heads last. Any suggestions are helpful.

I thought a robe mod would be a fun little project to work on. All I have left to do is make something for Handmaiden and Bao-Dur and script them into the game. I will include Atton's two robes in this mod release as well.

Lorden Darkblade Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Very good I liked them all specially the first head The robes are very good too Keep up the good work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juha Avery Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 The last head with the white eyes its wery cool idea and those black dots in the middle make it wery scary looking but make the whole eye white and then the black dot cause the eye now has kinda like white round and then the black round and then some grey in the right and left, it kinda makes it look little, well odd. Just my opinion. If you have any idea what im talking 'bout ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatXL Posted May 5, 2005 Author Share Posted May 5, 2005 Ah, I see what your saying. I like the idea, but don't you think I should do that on the darkside transitions only? I think that would make her look a little more "evil". On a side note, I have a question. There still isn't a way around Bao-Dur's whole arm thing yet, right? If not, I guess I'll have to give him regular armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreatXL Posted May 6, 2005 Author Share Posted May 6, 2005 Ok, new questions. I'm working on a KOTOR II launcher for fun and was wondering the 'legality' of something. Is it okay for me to take an official KOTOR II picture from their website and use it on the loader? Or would that conflict with copyrighting stuff? Another thing I would like to know is if the Holowan Laboratories had a logo? If so, I'd love to put it at the bottom of the loader. Here is a picture of what i've gotten so far: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y149/TheGreatXL/swlauncher.bmp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 As far as I know, it should be ok. Maybe a good idea would be to put in the readme 'picture taken from lucasarts.com or whatever. Looks good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorden Darkblade Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Looking good I like it and would definatelly use it as soon as it is released Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatXL Posted May 6, 2005 Author Share Posted May 6, 2005 Okay, it's complete. http://www.pcgamemods.com/12286/ I'll try to get the robe mod finished by this weekend so I can divert all of my time to the PC Head Reskin mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatXL Posted May 8, 2005 Author Share Posted May 8, 2005 Preview heads 5-8 are now up. #6's 2nd Darkside is my favorite head I've made so far. Those eyes look like lizard eyes. #7's eyes have a complex design in them that makes your head hurt if you stare for too long in game. Believe me, I know. More updates to come later.

TheGreatXL Posted May 9, 2005 Author Share Posted May 9, 2005 I need opinions on something. I could rush out the "NPC Robe Mod" as soon as possible, and it would be just that, a NPC robe mod. The other choice is to turn that mod into an all out full robe mod with about 25 other armor/robes. All of them will have their own unique attributes. The first choice would be the safe, less satisfying choice, but you would get the mod alot sooner. (And I do mean ALOT, because I'm a very slow modder.) The second choice might take alot longer, but I promise you all, it would be alot more polished. Though, with this choice, you have to keep in mind that I have an attention span like a fly. My husband finds it amusing though. Sometimes I alternate between cooking and cleaning because I get bored with one or the other if I do it too long. No joke. Which would you all (by "you all" I mean the one or two of you who actually bother to look at this thread regularly ) like for me to do? I really am conflicted on this decision.

Jeff Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 In my opinion, I would rather wait for a great mod than get a good one right away. But remember, mod because you want to, not for what other people want. Only do the other robes if you are interested in them. Although I hope you are interested in doing them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatXL Posted May 10, 2005 Author Share Posted May 10, 2005 Don't get the wrong impression, I'm not doing what other people want, I was just conflicted on what I should do. I asked because I thought some people might had rather had the NPC robe mod rather than waiting a long time for the exact same thing with basically 'add-ons'. Thank you for your advice though. It's really nice to know that you have an active opinion on my modding jobs. It is a nice motivation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Kenobi Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 I'd say release the larger one BUT I'd make sure it didn't conflict with any other "large" robe packs out there. I myself mostly release the smaller robes as singles but I know Prime has a biggie out and I think theres another as well floating out there.

TheGreatXL Posted May 13, 2005 Author Share Posted May 13, 2005 Scripting question: How do I get a robe/armor to defaultly be on one of your recruitable NPC's when you meet them instead of their default clothing? I've been looking everyone for this answer. Edit: Rats! My bandwith is exceeded. I guess I should go sign up for another account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Originally posted by TheGreatXL How do I get a robe/armor to defaultly be on one of your recruitable NPC's when you meet them instead of their default clothing? I've been looking everyone for this answer. You have to set this in the NPC's .utc file itself, you will have to manually equip whatever robe you want into the NPC's armor slot, you will have to use KOTOR Tool (For K1) or possibly a GFF Editor (For TSL) to do so. Also, make sure the NPC's .utc file has any possible feat requirements to equip the item and it should display fine in the game. I hope this helps!

TheGreatXL Posted May 13, 2005 Author Share Posted May 13, 2005 Wow, that was much more simple than I thought it would be. Thanks a ton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Kenobi Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 @RedHawke Hawke does this mean that we can make a custom item (robe/gun/saber) and then specify it as on them in the .uti file for the characters? Like say Mira's robe that I made I could specify to be in her inventory? Sorry to get a bit off topic but I just wanted to know. DM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 I'm pretty sure that you can do that. I think there's a custom items tree that has mods in it...though don't take my word on it, I'm at school so can't check to be sure. Hopefully I am correct.

Like say Mira's robe that I made I could specify to be in her inventory? Sorry to get a bit off topic but I just wanted to know. DM Yes you can. If you open a characters .utc file with Kotor Tool you should see a inventory button near the bottom left corner, click on this and a new window opens showing the equip spot for the character, a spot below that for items kept in their inventory, and a list of ingame item to the left. Just be for warned that some NPC's reuse the same .utc file but with different scripts packed into different rim files. So you should check and make sure that they are unique or that altering the file will not cause a problem somewhere else in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreatXL Posted May 14, 2005 Author Share Posted May 14, 2005 Wow. This is very neat. Since I'm making the robe mod, I guess I'll also include more armor/robes equiped to the NPCs when you meet them. To keep myself straight on the armor/robe mod, I'll make a list of the armors/robes that I'm working on for the release. Currently: Atton's Jedi Civil War Armor Atton's Sorrow Robe Disciple's Jedi Knowledge Robe Disciple's Sith Knowledge Robe Handmaiden's Betrayal Robe Handmaiden's Freedom Robe Mira's Vengeance Robe Mira's Bounty Hunter Robe The Exile's Chaos Robe The Exile's Serenity Robe Visas Marr's Sith Robe Visas Marr's Jedi Robe **Visas Marr's Lightsaber Fix - I fitted the current one with a proper description and plan to "give" this weapon to you the same time you receive one of her robes. I know it has nothing to do with robes or armors, but think of it as an extra goodie. (I sure do love giving goodies.) Future Ideas: NPC: Bao-Dur's Mandalorian War Armor Bao-Dur's "Rage of War" Armor Mandalore's Jedi Master Robe Mandalore's Sith Lord Robe Misc: Dark Jedi Rampage Robe Jedi Rampage Robe Dark Defense Robe Jedi Defense Robe Dark Wisdom Robe Jedi Wisdom Robe Dark Intelligence Robe Jedi Intelligence Robe Dark Persuation Robe Jedi Persuation Robe Dark Life Support Robe Jedi Life Support Robe <FullName>'s Destructive Past Armor <FullName>'s Future Truth Armor If I completed all of those I have listed, that will be exactly 30. I still need ideas for the armor/robes that will be on each NPC when you meet them. If you have any different suggestions/ideas, feel free to voice your opinion.

TheGreatXL Posted May 14, 2005 Author Share Posted May 14, 2005 All female heads are officially reskinned. I am planning to release them with the male heads. Enjoy all of the previews. Suggestions/Comments are always appreciated. I'll try to do those male heads ASAP. I've been sidetracked as of late trying to finish my Dynasty Warriors 5 game. I'm done with it, so my progress shouldn't be as slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
