So, where am I now?

 

Every single line now voiced!

Every single cinematic, including end credits finished!

 

I've also finished the romance subplot I started on a few months ago. There are three romances for male PCs and three for the females, each with their own little 'date' in a cantina.

 

Every major bug for the main part of the game is now solved, the only thing I need to iron out all the creases in is the ending, which is being a big pain the bum right now.

 

The ending comprises of 31 small modules, 6 possible endings and up to ten times that the player character can switch to one of the other companions. Turns out there's a ton of stuff that can go wrong with that. It's not so much the things happening individually, so much as when many of them occur in a short space of time.

 

There's only a finite amount of things that can need to be fixed though.

I'm very excited for this. Seems like you've done all of this in an impressively short amount of time, and I'm optimistic it will pay off in a great KOTOR experience. More than two potential endings and relationship possibilities is really going above and beyond, so well-done!

 

Keep us posted. Can't wait to play it.

Each of the six endings are now at the point where I can play through each of them in one go without the game crashing. I am now halfway through a thorough playthrough of a LS character, after which I'll be having one with a DS character.

 

After which, I shall be releasing the mod. Theoretically, I would only like to release TJM after every single tiny bug has been fixed, bug I don't think that's really plausible for a mod as large as this and with a team this small behind it. Even with myself and several bug testers repeatedly playing it from beginning to end, we could still be finding bugs by this time next year.

 

I therefore believe the sensible thing to do is release what I have to the public and then let them inform me of the bugs they find. It will be a very advanced beta, with the only real problems I expect will be typos, camera angles being weird etc.

 

The only serious bugs I can see occuring is with weird combinations of player choices, which happen across large peroids of time. For instance, if you fully complete your Jedi training, but decide you want to turn to the dark side in the final hour of the game, you may find something collapses. They aren't something I can see players finding very often though.

 

So, my LS playthrough should be finished by the end of the weekend, and hopefully the minor bug fixes and DS game will olny take a week or so. I'm thinking something like the 17th of December for a release so everyone can play during the Christmas holidays.

Just finished my full LS playthrough! Woo-hoo!

 

It was really awesome to go through the entire thing from beginning to end with every voiced line and cinematic movie.

 

According to my save game, it took 11h34m of gameplay to get to the end, so I'm also very satisifed at the length of it.

 

There were some troubles along the way, but I fixed them as I went. The only bugs remaining that I know of are where the sound files have gotten mixed up (Revan speaks, but it's bastila's voice that comes out etc). All very easy to fix, in fact I can probably do them all while having my cup of tea in the morning.

 

Next up, the dark side playthrough!
