harIII Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I am working on a mod that will bring the item properties from K2 into K1. For example, you'll be able to get an item only available in K2 in K1, such as Freedon Naad's Lightsaber. My question is can I take the skin in K2 into K1 so that I can have the armor skins? Would this be considered Porting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunkside Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I believe its considered porting, and therefore is illegal. Though im not entirely sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canderis Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 taking the skin wouldent be the only thing that you would need to take you would need the models too and this is porting inless you make all of it from scratch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedHawke Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Actually it isn't porting as the saber in question is a normal yellow bladed short lightsaber, and that model is in K1 already, just edit the K1 yellow short saber uti to taste rename it place it in game and viola! Freedon Nadds saber and no porting involved. To answer the second question, yes taking files directly from one game to another is porting and is verboten. Sorry.

Drunkside Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Isnt freedon nadds saber orange? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harIII Posted October 9, 2008 Author Share Posted October 9, 2008 What about the texture images. If I just used the skins to armor, robes, and clothing and used a model that looks as close as possible to the actual model and apply the image in K1. Simply put: 1. Extract skin 2. Open an item properties menu in KOTOR Tool 3. Apply the skin 4. Open the item in K1 Just apply the skin to the model that looks as much as possible to the original model. Such as, Bastila's default clothing and the Dancer's Outfit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Fett Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Yeah, it's orange. You can use the MotF/HotG skin (can't remember which is orange) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedHawke Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Isnt freedon nadds saber orange? Hmm... I just got it last night and it was yellow... with all the tweaks I did... Bah! Either way my point is valid as orange is present in K1 as HotG. What about the texture images. If I just used the skins to armor, robes, and clothing and used a model that looks as close as possible to the actual model and apply the image in K1. Simply put: 1. Extract skin 2. Open an item properties menu in KOTOR Tool 3. Apply the skin 4. Open the item in K1 Just apply the skin to the model that looks as much as possible to the original model. Such as, Bastila's default clothing and the Dancer's Outfit. If the asset in question is present in both games this is different as you can use the asset in the correct game. Porting is taking a file from any game and using it in another. Simple as that. Now if you want to try and skin Bastila's outfit from scratch on your end to a dancer outfit like theme for K1 you can feel free to, but porting materials directly is a no-no. Sorry mate.

harIII Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 Okay thanks. I guess I'll just use the names and properties but use K1's models and textures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Payne Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Perhaps the K1 versions are earlier/alternate versions of the ones in TSL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
