this is the Read-Me taken from the mod. what SHOULD happen is when Trask is supposed to come in, he mutates into a Jedi Master and you should be able to sort your class from there, once you've done this, it should skip the Endar Spire, and you'll get the animation for the escape pod, then leading you to Taris

Hope this helps. this is from an experienced user of the Padewan mod :p but i use KSE now :D:D

if you've got anymore questions (ANYONE) i will do my best to help you use this mod to its maximum.

ok ic ic, well there would be my prob.When he comes through the door ( actually he kinda just teleports on my screen now for a brief second ) looks all messed up and says something like " isyuf sifdais aertf" then the game crashes ..........

What is this KSE you speek of just incase I can't get Padawan to work ? Thanks

lol, not what I was looking for but ok :D .It's weird at first after I installed it, it just wouldnt work so I reinstalled it again and now it keeps causeing my game to crash when I first start on the Endire Spire ( I shouldnt be on the Spire though anyhow :mad: )

Someone out there has to know a trick or two to fix it.

okay try this:

get your Override folder and move it to your desktop, then create a new folder in your SWKotOR directory and call it override, then ONLY put the Padewan mod in, Start a new game, then if you still have problems, scrap the mod, becoz it works fine for me, i've just tested it and it works fine. please report back with your findings

PS if you get it working and wish to play the Endar Spire Mission just delete the k_pend_pod01.ncs file, i did this and it shouldn't mess the game up, but i do warn you, the Jedi WILL talk to you again and again and again you MUST and i REPEAT MUST use the same answer as you did before. eg if you chose Jedi Consolur and green sabre, you MUST ALWAYS CHOOSE THESE OPTIONS.

Wow, thank's man I would have never actually thought of that.And it worked :D Appreciate it alot

okay, there is a file, its called :

k_pend_pod01.ncs

if you delete / move this file out of your override folder, you will be able to turn into a jedi / sith :p and still play the Endar Spire mission, becoz i find its a good way to test your new powers :D:D

BUT this does come with a warning:

if you chose a PARTICULAR CLASS you MUST keep choosing the same option, as the jedi will talk to you when Trask is supposed to talk to you, or when you talk to him. if i remember correctly, you can keep selecting the class you chose at the start of the Mutated Trask convo, but choose different sabre colours :D

Thanks for trying to explain, but I think I'm actually going to have to see it for myself.

Personally, I have a save game labeled "Test" that I use to test scripts, weapons, etc. I saved right after waking up on Taris and then used KSE to give my PC every feat, etc. Whatever works I guess :)

Thanks again.
