Canderis Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Ever noticed how the galaxy map restricts how many planets you can add? If your an area modder you probably have. This mod is going to change that. It will add a new area you can go to (this will use the complicated way to add planets to the map to avoid compatibility issues). It will be a space station orbiting a planet. In the hanger bay there will be pilots who will take you to a new planet for a fee. There will be, included in the mod a way for modders can add a way to their planets. This mod is manly for Team Hssiss to add their areas and avoid compatibility issues. And now for everyone's favorite part.... Screenshots!

This mod will also be a platform for other mods we are planning on releasing, such as the Lost Ones by Yatsookey. We will include minor side-quests to also spice up this mod.

Marius Fett Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 The textures just look like desaturated versions of the originals... >_> You might wanna work on that. I think you could probably benefit from a new skybox too. Just a suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord of Hunger Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 We'll probably add to the textures. As for the skybox, that's new. However, the planet will be shrunk to be less pixilated. NPCs will be introduced soon. It'll give the modules character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The textures are completely new, i will work on em a bit, and the skybox is completely new. Although I don't see a resemblance to Mannan's textures (then again, I haven't played the game in ages), I do see a slight seam in the floor texture. I know its not that big of a problem, but you told us to look hard at the screens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The textures are completely new, i will work on em a bit, and the skybox is completely new. Well then, your game is really messed up. They're just desaturated manann textures, as I just cheacked both KotOR and KotOR Tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthParametric Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 You might want to redo your planet texture. There are a number of free ones around that are high enough res to look good in-game. Here is a sample of some that I've played around with in the past: Sci-Fi 3D is a good place to start and you'll turn up others with a Google search.

They aren't, I should know, i made em, only the FLOOR is. And also i found new textures I am going to use. And DP, the planet is a high def thing but the skybox stretched it a bit. But the ones you found are better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Spy Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Now hang on, whats with the skybox, the stars look real blurry, didn't they? And what planet is that? Ooh, and do you think for the hangars you could make energy shield walls, like the ones from ROTS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And DP, the planet is a high def thing but the skybox stretched it a bit. But the ones you found are better. Still looks like Manaan to me Whatever or not re used Manaan textures, I'dd introduce some color back in. Everything being grey is going to be rather boring looking. I'dd look into where you could add some nice accents, by giving certain textures a fresh color. You don't need to step away from grey completely Plus here's a cool link to a website with links on creating cool planets, starfields, nebulas.... etc for cool space scenes. ( full of cool today ) That'll save you the trouble from scavaveging others people low JPEG work, since its on the internet. CLICK ME Creating planets in Photoshop/ Gimp is one of the easier things to do and its great fun !

Canderis Posted April 25, 2009 Author Share Posted April 25, 2009 Due to a minor setback, the NPCs will not be in the updated screenshots.

Sith Holocron Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I like the T-shaped pattern on the deck plates. Why not just create the deck plates using only that pattern instead of layering (Is that the right Photoshop terminology?) them on top of the original Manaan deck plates? There appears to be some overlap on the texture on the bulkheads - the metal plates with the circles cut out of them. (See the edges of them on pictures 1 and 3.) I'm sure you'll get that adjusted though. Last note: the symbol in the first picture - looks three claw marks through a cresent shape seems a bit off center. That might be intentional though as I haven't seen the symbol before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canderis Posted April 25, 2009 Author Share Posted April 25, 2009 I updated the floor skin using the idea SH suggested, and I am quite satisfied with the result. Show spoiler (hidden content - requires Javascript to show) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulmont Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Hmmm, I likeit. Loos less manann-ish. I suggust that you change the color of the floor to something more metallic. Looks too much like stone. Maby rusted/scuffed metal? That would be awsome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
