Darth InSidious' WIP

Err, maybe. At the moment, though, a lot of the "diary" would be:

"sat around and bashed head against the wall, asking why I had cursed myself to endless frustration by beginning this blasted thing", or "tried [x]. It failed. It shouldn't have done. Damn the world.".

 

As to a tutorial, a better person for writing a tut on new planets would probably be RedHawke, who is rather the father of planet mods (and the only person to have released an entirely new planet within the original story to date).

I see many people asking for Tutorials on making new planets, but it just cannot be done, especially catering to newer modders, here's why...

 

  • You have to have basic knowledge of modding the game first...
  • You must know how to use KotOR Tool.
  • You must know about dialogs.
  • You must know about character files.
  • You must know about scripting, I cannot stress this one enough.
  • You must know about placeables, the horror... The Horror! :eek:
  • You must know how the area .git files work.

 

In the end you have to have a working knowledge of quite a bit before you attempt to tackle this kind of mod, I could write a tutorial, but you would not understand it unless you were capable in the areas as I listed above, and by then you could figure it out on your end quite easily, and wouldn't need a tutorial anyway. ;)

*Casts of the dust-sheets and brushes some dust off the thread*

*Coughing fit* Damned dust :xp:

 

Oookay. It's been some time since I've updated on my modding projects, so I thought I'd do so now. I'll admit it: I haven't done a great deal since the last time I updated this mod. Nonetheless, here is a rough approximation of everything I have done:

 

K1 modding done in the last 3 months:

TSL modding done in the last 3 months:

I've also come up with a more...unique model for Ulic's LS sabre.

 

Yes, the glowing green Candalore-lookalike is a new Ghost Ulic.

Yes, the guy in the K1 pics is meant to be Ming the Merciless (I was gonna release it on RH's birthday, but I didn't get around to it).

The main background in that K1 picture is of a new Tatooine Dueling Arena I've been doing a bit of work on.

The sword in that picture I call P'tang.

 

The pictures in the top-left corner show some recent experiments in walkmesh editing gone wrong, and also, it seems that Bioware originally intended there to be 6 tombs in the Valley of the Dark Lords, as opposed to 4...

 

I should add that not everything in these pictures is necessarily going to be used by me. It's just stuff I've done.

I'm afraid both answers are incorrect, but here's a clue: tree rate minx (anag.) :)

 

@mav: LOL, yeah, I'm not too good at guns, but I'm hoping it'll look better once its skinned...

 

It looks like the tree houses/walkway or lift on Kashyyyk. Yes? no?

 

Btw, it all looks excellent, can't wait! woot!
