Does anyone think they can make a tool for opening up a module and pinpointing the exact coordinates so you can copy them into the gff editor so module building wont be so time consuming.

Not exactly sure about a tool, but there are actually "modders mods" out there, I haven't modded in a while, but from what I can recall, I believe DTrips, RH, and Cz all had various armbands with multiple functions, one of them being the ability of telling you the coordinates of the module where your PC is standing. Granted this requires actually running your game, as well as being in the module you want coordinates for, but there are also mods out there with armbands that will warp you from module to module ;) Old school modding at its finest.

How bout a tool that allows you to see a complete list of cheats as you type
Like when going into a giveitem cheat
when you type giveitem a list drops down and allows you to see all the items available(and include the override)it would ofcourse have to display the item tag like g_w_lghtsbr06

And of course it would be usable ingame

i got a crazy idea. if anyone has played halo 3 and played forge you will know just what im talkin about.

an in map editor that allows you to place what you want where you want and to change textures on the fly. i know this would take alot of time.

the editor doesnt have to be in game. i was thinking it could render the map and all the stuff currently in it and it would automaticlly do everything that is needed to be placed in game. this would bring the most inexperienced modders out and help everyone show off there creations

Yes! thats cinda like what i want worded better. Battle Front and EAW have map editors like that so one for kotor would be ausome

If there were maps like Halo Multiplayer Maps, then, it might work. But its not, considering you can go to and from, things change in each module...

Could anyone make a .skp(google sketchup)->mdl/mdx converter. If it is possible this would make module making really easy.

Could anybody make a basic tool for extracting things from the Kotor 1 Bifs? The reason for this is that Kotor Tool can't run on my computer.
Thanks to anyone who tries or even thinks about making this. Also, if there are any floating out there on the web, could someone provide a link.

There's an OBJ export plugin for the free version of Sketchup - http://sketchuptips.blogspot.com/2007/01/wavefront-obj-exporter.html)

There are a number of OBJ import/export scripts for GMax, but the only one I've had success with is Chris Cookson's Wavefront OBJ/MTL Import Utility for GMax v1.1. You can get it here (along with an OBJ exporter) - http://www.the3rdage.net/item-348?addview)

Hello ALL, right hear is my Q, for mods

useing what ever tools,

1.change sats for e.g sith troppers
2.give them more kit, e.g better guns, sheilds
and about a ten more thinks i could do,

ive got as far as useing the kotor tool, editing the sith tropper, but cant work out how to put it back in the templates.bif, so it overwriths the old (and i must say weak one)

any help, or links would be VERY VERY helpful

All you have to do is save the file in your override folder that same that it was called. so if it was called 'blahblah.blah', you'd save it in your override called 'blahblah.blah' (without the quotes around them)

Could someone make a tool(or a edit of kTool if its not released since youd need permission) that you can apply a certain voiceover alien type to a dialog so it would apply random common voiceovers of that species. It would save time of finding the files names then editing the dialog typing the names.

Is it possible to get a .dlg file merger? There are several .dlg files I want to combine to resolve compatablility issues with a few mods for example the USM with some restoration mods. Can anyone help?

I would like to request a version of K-GFF editor that allows copying and pasting

Yep, silly me.

hey guys, i was playing gmod and started to wonder, is it possible to create a sandbox npc placement/ object placement program for kotor? i figured then that whoever did that would bring kotor modding to the next level and make sooo many things so much easier for we who create large scale expansions. any ideas?

I'm sorry if this is a stupid request, but I know there is a tpc2tga converter... is there anywhere to make a tga to tpc converter? The reason I ask is because as an xbox modder, I can only run so many override textures at a time, so I figured that if I could add them permanently to an erf or replace them in the .bif as a tpc, I wouldn't have to worry about freezing issues as much.

Can someone make Whereami armband for K1? I have some problems with cheats and I don't know what can be the problem. Or if D333's whereami armband works for K1, please tell me.

Could someone make a mass hex editor that has a replacer tool to replace all references of a selected set of text in a lot of files? Or point me to one.

Seconding this. Of course, it has been said that TSLPatcher can do this, but I'm looking for something more similar to the Convert2da and JRLMerger apps, except with .dlg and .ncs files as well.

Failing that, I wouldn't mind someone giving me a rundown on how to use TSLPatcher to do this.

Many thanks. ^^

There was a Readme in the form of a pdf in the folder that came with the patcher.

I'm affraid there will never be a utility which can combine custom user written scripts, due to the complexities involved as such the only way to combine scripts is manually...

stoffe, if she can find the time, can do it. She made many of the usefull utilities we modders use alot.

You really haven't a clue about what you are speaking, sorry mate but what Jon said was spot on... if you had any, and I mean any programming classes you would quickly understand why this is so.

There isn't going to be any 'easy button' for this, you all just have to roll your sleeves up and learn it yourselves.

Yes this is true... but does not change the facts here.

Also another tidbit about your post Zimm is that to volunteer someone like this is considered rude, if they have an interest in doing so they will volunteer themselves.

My bad. Sorry.

Anyone have a tool that'll convert .max to anything else?

Anyone have a tool that'll convert .max to anything else?

if you have 3ds Max, you can export it into a variety of different files. Otherwise, not that I know of.

Here's a set of ideas: A 2da editor, script editor & gff editor for iPhone/iTouch users whose devices are jailbroken. (which is legal now)

a tool that allows easy making and implementation of brand new soundsets (voices like in NWN).

Dlg file merger for tsl that allows you to merge dlg files

I was wondering if someone could make a Kotor 1-compatible version of the DeNCS modding tool. I know that it'll "work" with some K1 scripts, but it'll mostly turn out byte code. If anyone makes this, could they PM me a link? Thank you!
