Canaan Sadow Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Well actually, none. There's a funtion on KotOR tool that shows you how to script... also in the scripting section of the forums, there are scripts that are usable by anyone...

Nick Vader Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 It IS based on C language, but the game engine itself recognises specific commands for scripts, which were originally created by the coders and game developers. Think of it as its own language. It's quite easy to learn, though. Also, In Kotor Tool, when you use the text editor for scripts, select the "Script is for Kotor1", on the compile menu, and you'll see at the bottom right of the editor, several commands to choose from. Click to find the one you want I ocassionally discover new commands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
