Can anyone tell me how you can skip the portait portion of your PC setup when you want to select Darth Vader outright as your PC? I read on the first page of this forum where someone else experienced this problem and a response that said "Edit button is your friend", although I'm not exactly sure what was meant by that. Anyone know a way to properly do this?

 

Edit: Nevermind, it took me a while but I FINALLY got it work :lol:

Please use the "Private Message function", it is against forum rules for your own good not to have email addresses posted here, as it invites bots, and you get a lot of spam email. -- j7

I'll give a copy to you as soon as I am able--I do recall that I have a version of it somewhere. Look for my Private Message.

EDIT: YES! FOUND IT! Check your PM's if you haven't already! (And please be kind to the moderators--edit your post above for reply instead of making another post--saves space that way! ;))

 

EDIT EDIT: I don't know, but you probably found this via a search engine 'cuz of some video or something like that. Since a mod already checked you out without chewing your head off, I guess an exception was made.--Generally reviving old threads is a no-no...requests go here.

 

I'll be quiet, now. :lol:

 

And a personal thank you to J7 for being a kind mod--you didn't have to, but you were a gentleman anyway.

I tried installing 0.92.36 beta of this mod but when I click "Install Mod" it gives me a dialog box titled "TSLPatcher" which says "RichEdit line insertion error". Is there anything I'm missing?

 

EDIT: If it's possible...and legal, can someone just rezip all the installed files so I can just copy them into a folder instead of trying to find a way to run the .exe? Thanks

I have discovered a bug associated with this particular mod.

 

Deatils of my system at discovery:

OS Windows Vista Home Premium

Service Pack 1

 

SW:KOTOR 2 TSL

Game version 2.10.427 English

TSL Patch 1.0b

 

(Not sure how helpful this will be to anyone.)

 

After installing, I was able to play for awhile. It seemed normal until I had reached the end of the underground mine. Upon attempting to go to the next module, the game would freeze and either crashed or needed to force-quit. It repeatedly encountered this error. Playing other saved game files it did not affect them at first, but after~20-40 hours of gameplay this bug began showing up in the other save games. The more you would use them the more it would appear. Not long after, the same problem was so bad that your character could not move fro mone module/ part of the level to another without the game crash. Uninstall if it gets to this point.

 

Even after uninstall this error will still reappear until you reactivate a save game unused or at least that did not encounter this bug to return it to normal--figured if it works for game saves acting up from the 'heat zones', it would work here and it did. If this is not possible, I suspect it can be solved by also starting a new game after uninstall.

 

Another interesting side note is that this mod will inadvertently "fix" the 0 health immortality in the "Dead Jedi room" within Ludo Kressh's tomb on Korriban. Normally if you reached 0 health in here while re-spawning hississ in that infinite exp loop "glitch" (yeah, right), you would not die. Now this part of the glitch has been fixed and thus your time in here levelling up and exploiting this loop is much more difficult.

 

Side-side note: for the normal, if you level up with 0 health then you cannot apply any skill points you earned and if you accept it you will lose out; so cancel, heal some, then level up while you have health 0< so you CAN take advantage of those skill points. ;)

I have discovered a bug associated with this particular mod.

I just installed this mod to a test folder and this mod only installs appearance.2da, portraits.2da, 2 model files, 3 tga files, 2 txi files, the Vader Armor item uti, and readme file. It installs no scripts or edited area files, nothing that should influence what you are indicating has been influenced/changed/bugged by this mod.

I have the .exe in the KOTOR 2 root folder and I'm using XP with SP1 and SP2, pretty much every .NET Framework update as well.

 

I choose "full installation" when prompted.

 

The RichEdit line insertion error pops us with a TSLPatcher dialog box, but the thing is that I've followed the solution to that given in the TSLPatcher discussion thread (I've replaced both the RichEdit .dlls and changed the print-text log), and the thing keeps popping up even with that.

 

Edit: Uh, bump again.

 

I extracted the .exe to manually install with TSLPatcher but as it turns out, TSLPatcher really, really hates me. It gives me an "unhandled error" when I try install the extracted files, even though I'm pretty sure I've done all the right things (the files are in "tslpatchdata", there's a changes.ini file, the 2DA files).

 

Now, I'm pretty sure the only problem I have is that I can't install the proper lines into appearance.2da and portraits.2da. If someone can't find a solution to my TSLPatcher woes, I'd like to request someone who's successfully installed this mod to provide their 2DA files, but that might be illegal as well...

 

Combining earlier post into this one. Sorry you aren't getting any help JTFO, but posting repeated requests are considered spam here, you have already asked for the mod files once, the second time your post was removed, now this one is longer but basically asking the same thing. Again I'm sorry you aren't getting the help you want, it is a pity that AVol has left us, if you don't get responses here you could try to contact the maker of the TSL Patcher for assistance stoffe via Private Messaging (PM) or post about this in the TSL Patcher thread. -RH

You cannot release this mod without th author's permission. And AVol is AWOL

Well, actually there's nothing stopping anyone from publicly releasing this on other sites, but for just giggles I'll assume you're talking about Kfiles.

 

I did some reading and came up with this:

 

 

Q: What if I can't get in touch with an author to receive permission?

 

A: This has come up several times, and after some discussion we decided that if you can prove you tried reasonably to acquire permission, we will post the file. You still must adequately credit the original author and include that file's read-me. "Reasonably" means that you must make a valid effort to get in touch with the author. Sending an e-mail out on Monday and then requesting the file be posted on Tuesday because you could not get in touch with the author won't work. It is also important to note that if the missing author returns at some point and request the file be removed, we will remove it.

I would assume that since members have attempted to contact Avol and he hasn't responded, his mod would fall under this rule?

That just sucks. These people made it to be used. I can't see anyone trying to sell any of this stuff. The US law is that it's not illegal to burn your own CDs. It's only illegal to sell copied stuff.

 

I think I found it on some Russian site anyways.
