RobQel-Droma Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Hey everybody, I was just wondering if you could release a mod like Redhawke's "make mission/carth/canderous a jedi/dark jedi", except make it "make Zaalbar a jedi." This was inspired by one of my own posts somewhere about characters in KIII, where I mentioned that I wanted a wookie trainable as a jedi. Oh, and I also was wondering if someone could make it so Zaalbar can wear armor, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Maker Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 ^^^ I believe its impossible for our furry freind to wear armor due to appearance.2da issues, that and the fact that he is a wookie it just wouldn't make much sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChAiNz.2da Posted October 1, 2005 Share Posted October 1, 2005 ^^^ I believe its impossible for our furry freind to wear armor due to appearance.2da issues, that and the fact that he is a wookie it just wouldn't make much sense Yup.. plus it would take some modeling work since Zaalbar doesn't have an "armored" model to represent him wearing it. Well, the "lederhosen" doesn't quite count unless you just wanted to make different colors (skins) hehehe You can edit certain .2da files for Big Z to 'equip' armor, he just wouldn't visually style & profile it I believe it's the denysubrace field in baseitems.2da. Change the value to "0x00000000" on lines #38-43 (for armor) and if you're feeling particularly "saucy", change it on Rows #35-37 for Jedi Robes (you'll have to give Big Z the proper feat for those however) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobQel-Droma Posted October 3, 2005 Author Share Posted October 3, 2005 But what about turning him into a jedi? Or maybe, I though about this, getting a wookie armour specially made for him. If you look in episode III, the wookie leader is wearing a kind of armour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedHawke Posted October 3, 2005 Share Posted October 3, 2005 But what about turning him into a jedi? This can be done, though it would require a little bit of creative storytelling to do so as Wookiee Jedi's are very rare. Or maybe, I though about this, getting a wookie armour specially made for him. If you look in episode III, the wookie leader is wearing a kind of armour. Well, while we saw that as well, remember Episode III didn't have to work within the game mechanics of KOTOR. While you can get Zaalbar to easily wear armor, to make armor "appear" on Zaalbar would be no small undertaking, it would involve some heavy modeling skills to be properly done, if it could be done at all, because I don't personally believe some reskins would hack it, but that might just be me.

Hunter-Killer Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 I'd love that to happen. Big Z is my favorite character is the game, and I'd like him twice as much as a Jedi. He'd probably be the best in the game since his ailment is the highest (except maybe the PC). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd probably be the best in the game since his ailment is the highest (except maybe the PC). Well, i thank you Hunter-Killer for bringing up this ancient thread, as i wasn't around when it was started, i would love to have Z as a Jedi and as RedHawke said, it would require a creative story for it to make sence, not to mention i might actually use him if he were a Jedi, lol. I might give this a go, I'll put it on my "Planning" list, check out my site for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter-Killer Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Oh, I didn't notice the date of the last reply. Well, I guess it was a good thing I thought the ones on pages 30-36 were the most recent ones then. Thanks. Edit: Umm.......... for the Story........... Zaalbar's mom was was the famous wookiee........ um....... can I have a little while to think of this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasher Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Wow...talk about coincidence. I was just thinking about this last night. I wanted to make both Mission and Big Z Jedi. I was thinking about them being trained together by two Jedi who got stuck on Taris who were hiding (from Revan and Malak...these Jedi could have been deserters...?) in the lower level cantina. The two Jedi were looking for new recruits--people with force sensitivity and a light side alignment--to aid in their fight against Revan and Malak in the impending Jedi Civil War. After being trained, Mission and Big Z were to continue the effort on Taris while the two Jedi left for another planet in search of more Padawan. Malak sensed the Jedi and then sent the garrison to control Taris, but the Jedi had already left. Mission and Big Z were not strong enough in the Force to be sensed by Malak (hell, when you find them, they're only level 3 and 4 respectively). Mission and Big Z "joined" the Hidden Beks to seek out more possible Jedi. Edit: Thus, you wouldn't need to "make" them Jedi in the way of TSL, they'd already be Jedi. You'd just need to fix up their uti files in the templates (change stats, give them the appropriate feats, force powers, force points, lightsabers, and custom robes), change the initial dialog in the cantina around, and you're done. I'm all for Mission as a Sentinel and Big Z as a guardian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although however without a hardcore mod it could possibly unbalance the game a bit so early on in the game. I also think this idea would fit in perfectly with the "Sith Planet of Taris" mod. Any thoughts on this idea master zionosis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasher Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 I don't know...the Taris undercity was always a breeze even without Force powers and lightsabers. The rancor is still unkillable unless you use mines, and the Sith HQ will still be tough (I always got wasted when I took Bastila, or anyone other than Carth and Zaalbar). And again, even having two other Jedi with sabers and measly low level force powers, Dantooine will still be challenging. I don't think it'll throw it off too much... ...I'm done with the PC mods (I just don't have the dialog). I could run it through and let you know. Edit: To make it REALLY easy, you could have Zaalbar do all the talking on their backstory. Since all his dialog is grunts and groans, you wouldn't need to do voiceovers for Mission. Just enter the dialog sequence after you free Zaalbar from the Gamorreans. You could start of by saying that you noticed both Big Z and Mission can use the Force, then ask how and why and have Big Z fill in the details. Although plotwise it's Mission who's the talker, again, this seems to be the easier alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm liking whats being said here, i will be going with a similar story line to what Jasher said, And i might try and script a new cut scene where Big Z's Father has a conversation with big Z about becoming a Jedi, Z the telling him how it happened.

Jasher Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 (Sorry, it seems I'm just blabbing on here...) Solving the talkative-Mission problem: You could simply ask Big Z why Mission didn't mention this fact before. He then explains that the reason Mission didn't say anything was because she didn't know if you were friend or foe. The reason Big Z spills the beans is because now he's got a nifty new life-debt and he doesn't see the need to hide the reality of his powers from his new master. He could even suggest that his powers be used to protect you! Of course, this coversation segment would need to be entered before Mission says; "Well if Big Z's with you, than I'm with you too" (or something to that effect). Like I said, I can handle the uti's but not the dialog. Help please?

Cool idea, cool idea. Keep me posted! Jasher, I have combined your many Double Posts in this thread. Please refrain from Double Posting, that is having multiple posts in a row, while it is alright to do in some rare instances, here it isn't. Use the 'edit this' post feature to add any new content to your previous posts, thanks. -RH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously you haven't used my Sith Planet of Taris... it's still easy... but not nearly as easy. And actually... I changed a few NPC's to Jedi once and I choked the rancor... so you don't neccessarily have to use mines... it's just hard to kill a monster that can kill you with one hit. ^_^ By all means add an attachment to the Sith Planet of Taris. I'd help you out... but uhhh... I can't mod at the moment, I haven't been able to mod for several months, because my computer went down and I'm on someone else's computer so I can't download the tools.

Shame 'bout ya computer - hope it get's fixed soon When you have your computer fixed will you update the Sith Planet of Taris mod, as i played it an must admit i thoroughly enjoyed it and has a lot of potential - it's great to play that tedious planet in a different way (although your mod makes so much more sense than just having the sith soldier grunts to deal with!)

Is it possible to make both, the one mission and zaalbar were trained as Jedi before they met Revan and one were he is trained as a Jedi by a jedi on Dantooine, just in case someone just downloaded a mod that makes mission a jedi (by herself) before they read this? lol.
