TriggerGod Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 First off, you might wanna tell us what you need Second, I believe you're gonna need KOTOR Tool and the K-GFF editor. Depending on your answer for my first question, you might need more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da_Man_2423 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 What is it you want to mod? A lot of the tools you'll need, and tutorials, are found in the "General Tools + Tutorials" at the top of the Holowan subforum. You might also be interested to know that a lot of modding in this game requires a lot of learning and time, although I'm sure you're up for it.

Da_Man_2423 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Well, what is it exactly that you want to mod? We need to know that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revan 411 Posted May 12, 2008 Author Share Posted May 12, 2008 Well, what is it exactly that you want to mod? We need to know that too. I want to edit pragus [sorry cant spell it right] and make it more scaryer and darker you know silent hill and F.E.A.R sort of thing. And add a new area to.

Da_Man_2423 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Could put some effects in...or reduce the lighting...although that would probably involve some 3DS Max or GMAX editing I believe. Do you have any experience with any sort of modding? Of any kind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Construct Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Hey, guys, if he's talking about F.E.A.R. then you need to pull your pants up, lock your doors, and get under your bed. And have a gun. This guy wants it REALLY scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthRevan243 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Well, do you want to use an existing area as a template for your new area or make an entirely new one. Heres 2 ways: Using an existing area as a template 1. Open up KotOR Tool 2. Go to Kotor II > ERFs > Modules 3. There are different worlds templates for you to work on. You can find the names of the modules at swknights.com 4. Click the + next to the module you want to use and extract the .git, .are .ifo files to somewhere that you can find. I don't know how but you'll have to insert NPC's, enemyies ect. Hopefully someone will tell you how to do that. 5 Open up the Kotor Tool module editor 6. Put the .git, .are, .ifo and all the other stuff into it and label it something like 108PER.mod. It should appear in your desktop. 7. Move it to your Kotor 2 modules folder. 8. Start up the game and use the cheat console to warp there. How to make entirely new areas You need to be an experienced modeler with Gmax or 3Ds Max. Currently the only people that can/have done it are: Doc Valantine, SithSpecter and Quanon. Hope that helps! -DarthRevan243 P.S: To enable cheats open the swkotor2.ini file and under game optians type EnableCheats=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedge Suron Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Cheats don't work for everyone though - Me included -, so please try something like a person or a sealed door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthRevan243 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Cheats is just so you can have a look at your module. When it's over, you won't HAVE to type cheats. But thats up to Revan 411.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth InSidious Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 K-GFF, which is available from the http://www.starwarsknights.com main page. There are several tutorials on the subject available in the "General Tutorials" section here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revan 411 Posted May 14, 2008 Author Share Posted May 14, 2008 other then G-ff and KT is there any other tools to do this? Cause i already have 3D Max and Photo Shop if that requred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da_Man_2423 Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 If you're going to be CREATING an entirely new area, yes 3DS MAX/GMAX is required. Photoshop isn't really required, unless you wanna make some new textures I suppose. I don't know of any tutorials around here that talk specificially about creating a BRAND new area (mostly because they're a pain and/or take a lot of time), but a Google search might do some good there.

Revan 411 Posted May 14, 2008 Author Share Posted May 14, 2008 Is there a way to put in a new charater in the game?
