Vegard Aune Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I take it you haven't hit any of the heavy dialogue cutscenes. I'm pretty sure it would be impossible to tweak the dialogue in them so they used words that the other NPCs had said, still carry the same meaning, and then splice together something that didn't sound like an absolute wreck and ruin everything. I would have been thrilled if it were possible to satisfactorily put together spliced NPC dialogue and had someone willing to play VA for Dustil, but it just couldn't happen. Darth InSidious, I hope you enjoy it No, I haven't hit any heavy-dialogue-cutscenes, and I propably never will, as my game has started crashing constantly. I can hardly even play it anymore! But when you put it that way, I suppose I'll just have to accept that it will be voiceless forever... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavlos Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Sorry so late, Vegard Aune, but thanks! Yeah, it would have been nice to have VO, but it wouldn't have been possible. There is soooooo much dialogue in this that splicing together VO for the other characters would be both tedius and also awful. Then there would be tracking down someone who had enough Dustil in their voice to record...::sigh:: Don't ever get involved in splicing party dialogues! I've gone insane doing this and it limits what kind of interactions you can have with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've gone insane doing this and it limits what kind of interactions you can have with them. You're right. As I said, just that ONE Mandalore-line was really hard to do. I don't understand how you actually manage to make it sound "perfect" by just combining different words for people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Artemis Posted November 9, 2006 Author Share Posted November 9, 2006 ARRRRGH. Of course, naturally, let me pound my head into a desk, there's a pretty major bug in the mod (easy enough to overlook--I was testing how the mod worked, not what would happen if it was installed and not used!! I plead insanity!) I will be attempting to fix the error (I'm expecting it to be an easy enough fix) soon and release a patch. But, in the mean time, if (and ONLY if), you did not recruit Dustil on Telos OR are playing a DS Revan game with the mod installed, you'll have to go into Override and remove the file 'tr_shuttle.ncs'. That should take care of the problem, which is, basically, the game crashes for at least one person when it tries to load the Telos Plateau movie, something to that effect. I'm pretty sure I know why it does that, which is why I'm certain I can fix it, but for now, just yank the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Artemis Posted November 19, 2006 Author Share Posted November 19, 2006 I've added a new version of shuttle1.dlg to the patch file. I haven't tested it yet (hence why I don't have a v1.4 up yet), but what it does is check the globals to see if you recruited Dustil. If you didn't, then it won't fire the script needed to get rid of Dustil, so it should act the same way as if you never had the mod installed in the first place. I'll test it soon, but I don't see why it wouldn't work (not that that's stopped a mod from blowing up in my face before ) With the new shuttle1.dlg, it should work fine if you have the mod installed and decide to play a DS Revan game or don't recuit Dustil, so you may want to grab tr_shuttle.ncs and put it back in Override, provided you have the newest shuttle1.dlg, provided by the new patch file. Ideally, the mod should be able to be installed even if you chose not to use it on a play through, so hopefully this solves that problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilv Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I found Dustil and sure enough he had the wrong icon and regular clothing but lucky me all I had to do was adjust him w/ kse instead of installing the emergency patch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Artemis Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 I honestly have no idea what causes that. I really wish I did. But yeah, KSE is a much better fix for it than running Emergency De-Atton. That's included for people who don't have KSE or don't know how to use it to change a character's appearance.

wilv Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 the mod conflicts with the baodur charged armor v.1 by chainz.2da you both have the same 231bdur.dlg. what ends up happening is that if u have the armor dlg dustil doesn't show but if you use the dustil dlg Bao will not start the conversation that places his armor in the inventory. I ended up using the dustil dlg and simply kse'd Bao's armor in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Artemis Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 Dustil doesn't show up at all if you have ChAiNz' Bao-Dur Charged Armor 231bdur.dlg? I just want to clarify what effect it has on Dustil...for the Dustil mod, the dialogue isn't important; it's more of an icing on the cake thing, something to integrate Dustil into the story more (I fugured if he was there, he might have something to say about how the Force feels to him on Telos). I don't have the mod in question from ChAiNz.2da, so I can't look at what the dialogue does specifically, but I might have to look into it to see if it's seriously adversely affecting my mod. If it's not, I'll just make a note of the incompatibility if I happen to update the mod again. So could you give me details about what it does to Dustil?

wilv Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 tried it again and now he's spawning even w/ the armor dlg. i did manually copy and paste all the mod files except for the 2da ones this time though but yesterday for some reason he just wouldnt show up. I tried to run throuhg it three times and nada. I'm just glad it's working now though cause this is one cool mod. I hada question though. when selecting revan's gender i picked female. My conversations with kreia about revan refered to revan as fem when i meet dustil his conversation refers to revan as male and after that point everyone starts to refer to revan as male. Any idea why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilv Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 wanted to also let you know that in nar shada dustil speaks hk lines for the air speeder side quest with hk's voice. Apparently if you have dustil in the party when you try and install the power cell he takes over hk's portion of that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My conversations with kreia about revan refered to revan as fem when i meet dustil his conversation refers to revan as male and after that point everyone starts to refer to revan as male. Any idea why? No, I've never heard of anyone having that problem. But then, you had problems with the mod from the get-go (I checked the 231bdur.dlg for the armor mod along with the script it fires, and couldn't see anything in it that would cause a problem--that mod shouldn't have anything to do with Dustil spawning since he spawns before the dialogue would be used--the mods, ideally, aren't incompatible if you install ChAiNz' after Dustil), so it's possible something weird happened. I'd suggest using KSE to set Revan female again; something may have happened that changed that global. If talking to Dustil keeps setting Revan male after that, I honestly couldn't tell you what to do about it--his dialogue only does global checks for Revan, it doesn't change any globals except the custom globals I made for him. I've tested him with both a male Revan and a female Revan since there are several bits of dialogue and some cut-scenes Revan's gender affects. It sounds to me like something in your TSL install or other mods you might have is somehow interfering with scripts. That's not something I can help with, though. Thanks for alerting me to another missed moment where he goes HK on people. ::tears hair:: I'll see if it's something I can fix, but it may not be--there are at least two other times that he he'll do that that I simply don't have the modding knowledge to fix (and in one case, when Kreia asks you to split the party on Dxun, it is impossible to change the choice from HK to Dustil), and this might be one of them. I don't know of any tools that can search TSL dialogue files for speaker tags, so even if I do manage to fix all of the instances I know about, another is bound to crop up. I know it's distracting and it irritates me that it happens and that I can't do anything about some of them. I will see if I can fix it, though.

I went ahead and deleted all my mods and made a basic override folder with just some head mods and eye mods and the Dustil mod works fine except for the armor thing still not showing up for me. He still shows up in regular clothes. I guess I'll have to make a few overrides for different mods and save em to disk and just install the mod I want when i want to play it, lol. I had this game for xbox before and just got t for pc so i'm like a kid in a candy store with all these cool mods. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrak1977 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 I just played through TSL with this mod for the first time. Great job on working Dustil into the storie. I loved the mod. Like most, I'm an HK-47 fan. However, HK is kinda pointless in a light side game so Dustil's personilty fills the void nicely. I had 1 problem happen with the mod. I finished putting HK together after picking up Dustil on Korabon and HK replaced Dustil in my group. I saved just before I put HK together so it wasn't a big deal. Just figured I would let you know. Thanks again for all the hard work that went into this wonderful mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again for all the hard work that went into this wonderful mod. One question, if Dustil replaces HK-47, how did you finish building him after you got Dustil? Regarding the problem; it could just be a problem in the scripting code, that's all - i'm sure the author of the mod will rectify the mod in future renditions.

HK is still on the ship waiting to be rebuilt. As I understand it, HK will stick around on the ship if you build him then get Dustil. The write up for the mod says HK still has all his cut sences.

Princess Artemis Posted April 7, 2007 Author Share Posted April 7, 2007 Once you have Dustil in the party off Korriban, there should be no way to get HK in the party. You can still repair him and it should say "[HK-47 will now stealthily patrol the Ebon Hawk.]" If you repair him before getting recruiting Dustil on Korriban, it should say, "[HK-47 has joined your party. His few remaining assassination protocols allow him to do more damage to opponents with blasters and rifles.]" Right now which one you get is based on the global conditional check c_npc_avail = 5 (which is HK's slot--in other words, if someone is in that slot, HK won't join the party). I could change the conditional check to c_global_eq = 2 then set Dustil_Recruit to 2 if the other is causing problems. I'm pretty sure I chose to use c_npc_avail so that if one never encountered Dustil at all, it wouldn't change how HK reacts. It's possible that Thrak1977 has an hk47.dlg in Override that caused a problem, or perhaps something goofed (Thrak1977, I'm glad you enjoyed it and I'm sorry you ran into a problem with rebuilding HK--he does have several cut scenes including one with Dustil)...but I don't think it's on my end because I did test that part quite a bit to make sure HK couldn't replace Dustil.

You do need an hk47.dlg in order to be able to repair HK after recruiting Dustil, it just has to be the one from the Dustil recruit mod. If the new install doesn't work, let me know and I'll see about changing the way the HK dialogue handles things if you've recruited Dustil.

If the new install doesn't work, let me know and I'll see about changing the way the HK dialogue handles things if you've recruited Dustil. Did a clean install and got to Korabon using only this mod today. Still had the problem of HK replacing Dustil if I put him together after I had Dustil on the team. On the upside, everything works perfict when I put HK together then go get Dustil. I did have to cheat to get the HK parts without playing through all of Nar Shaddaa. The only 2 things I did to my game before testing the mod were enabling cheats, so I could get the HK parts, and patching. I'm not sure if eather of thoughs could be causing the isue. As I sed before, I consider this to be a prity small isue, expecialy if I'm the only one having this problem. I'll just be sure to put HK together before picking up Dustil on Korabon. On a lighter note, I almost hurt myself laughing at the HK/Dustil meeting. You did a wonderful job on this mod and I will deffently keep using it whenever I play a lightside game.

Princess Artemis Posted April 9, 2007 Author Share Posted April 9, 2007 Try installing the hk47.dlg from the patch file I just updated. I think changing the conditional should work. Here's the patch.

I haven't been able to get to fixing any of the new times he talks like HK yet, sorry all. Still having the same problem. It ocures to me that a bit more detail about the problem I'm having may be using. Instead of starting the opaning convershion with HK after I finish fixing him, the game faids to black and starts a chat with Dustil just as if I had walked up to Dustil and clicked on him to talk. The screan stays black durning and after the convershion with Dustil, and as far as I can tell I am unable to move around the ship. The only way I have found to clear the backed out screan is to save and exit the game. When I reloud from the save I can see again but HK has replaced Dustil. Dustil is still on the ship, but when I leave the ship it's HK that's in the party window not Dustil and if I pick HK to go with me I get HK in the party. I hope the added detail helps. Sorry it wasn't in my first post. Thrak1977 ps. Text isn't my best form of comunication. I hope this hasn't be to hard to understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
