Do tell me Kannos is a genius! :D

 

Yeah, he's pretty much that style of character. His specialty is in verbally manipulating people.

 

Think Hannibal Lector does Wormtongue.

 

 

It doesn't look too bad, but maybe a clean shave might be best.. ;)

 

I'll give it a couple more goes then give up. I just really want a character with stubble.:)

Trex, there is one more thing. You mentioned, that one of the Jedi Masters is Q'Anilla. Now we know, that the poor thing killed herself during Haazen's uprising. Are you going to leave her in the game? Or maybe there is a chance for my beloved Visas to take her place? : )

 

It is a bit awkward, isn't it. Thing is, I've already cut out Haazen because of what's happened in the comics. I don't really want to loose another.

 

Since, mainly because of the MMORPG story, this going to be a sort of uncanonical alternative universe storyline, I might just have to say that everything after a certain point in the official storyline never happened.

 

or Jolee, you could reskin one of the pc heads to look like him.

 

Actually, the original intention was to have both him and Juhani in this as Jedi masters. One of the main reasons I included some of the comic book characters is that neither of their models or textures are in KOTOR2. As you say, I could reskin/remodel some of the heads, but to be honest, I don't know if I can be bothered at this late stage of production.

 

I'll have to see.

Well, you can do it other way and just make present Q'Anilla other Miralukian seer from the Convenant. She can be as well in love with Lucien, if that was a part of the plot (you can see some more Miralukian seers in one flashback). I guess it won't make a lot of plot changes.

Personaly I don't take MMO too serious. Is that cannon? And what if my allmighty Sith character will overthrow the Republic? Is that cannon too? ; )

Nice. Looking forward to it. I like the angle on the True Sith. Always liked the comics best of all, IMHO they best Lucas himself. A bit more starship action is thoroughly welcomed, too. It was one of the things missing from KotorII, which gives but a taste of something I think we'd all like to see more of. It's Star Wars after all, which is centred around starships, naturally.

 

In fact when you think about it the story of the Sith begins with starships landing on their planet, the ascendancy of the Dark Lords and the unleashing of those ancient, primordeal Sith disciplines upon a relatively ill-prepared galactic society. Nature had otherwise rendered such teachings to the canons of the most ancient planetbound histories, abandoned as social and technological development necessarily left behind certain more self destructive concepts such as the wonton slaughter of innocents for no more reason than personal gratifications. Such a sociology could not survive the development of planet-busting advanced technologies and tremendous intellect behind hyperdrives. But in the case of the Sith these homeless Dark Jedi altered the natural course of evolution and happened across such primeval madness, as in their nature not combating it but absorbing it and unleashing it upon the galaxy. Thus even the esoteric conflict of the Star Wars universe is marked by the appearance of starships.

any other party members

 

A fair few. I think there's 15 possible, but I want to keep them a surprise.

 

Going by earlier posted screens, you could probably take a good guess as to one (hint : he wears a mask :)).

 

Hmm... what colour of eyes does Tsig have? Brown?

 

You should make them a lighter colour to bring them out.

 

They're actually green, and for some reason, they are a lot brighter in the game, as are Kannos' blue ones. Not too sure why they're darker in the pics.

 

Similarly, Canderous's beard is a lot whiter. It looks more gray above.

That's a really interesting look at the Sith as a species. It's that kind of deep thinking that keeps stories interesting.

I've noticed that TSL turns up the screen brightness as well as changing the screen resolution when it boots up. I've regularly had to edit my screenshots to compensate (usually just a small Levels adjustment, often Auto Levels is enough).

 

As for the trailer, it looks really interesting and well planned. You sure seem to be a fan of characters having fins on thier heads (I'm thinking of the modified HK and the black garbed, white headed aliens near the end :)). It should be really fun to play, and to watch the story unfold :thumbsup:.

Ah - I see :)

 

I wouldn't know. I have never taken a screen shot from TSL :p

To be honest with you Trex, when I saw the title of this thread I was very skeptical of it. But after seeing the trailers my only words are holy crap... :eek:

 

This looks very awesome, and I can't wait to download it. :D I do have a couple comments/criticisms though.

 

-Storyline looks freaking cool man, it looks like this could be considered a new game if you made it from scratch. :xp:

-Characters look good too, reskins ain't bad at all.

-True Sith look really sweet, the "shaman" looks awesome.

-Area reskins look decent. I had some trouble recognizing some of the areas (some I still can't recognize :lol:). The textures look alright, some are better then others. Like I think the droid areas could use a bit of work. Coruscant though, looks amazing.

 

Overall, I can see that a lot of time and effort went into the making of this mod, I'm stumbling through my own planet mod and jeesh you have a lot of patience, considering the amount of planets in this. :lol: Good luck finishing the rest of it. ;)

 

One question: The PC is a Jedi right? (or at least force sensitive?)

It's sort of complicated, but yes they are Force sensitive.

 

 

They're a normal person with mild Force sensitivity , until they end up 'tainted' by the spirit of Dark Lord, unlocking their true potential.

 

 

The way I see it, Kotor 1 had you trained a LS Jedi, then gave you the option of turning to the dark side. Kotor 2 had you start, sort of trained as a gray Jedi, then had you swing either way. So, for this I have you start out more trained by a Sith, then with the option of turning towards the light.

 

Question, will I have any issues running this mod on Vista?

 

Don't worry. I'm making it on Vista. :)
