Hello everyone!
I'm now a registered user on this site, but have been coming here for some time and looking over this awesome site.
I have just recently gotten into mod'ing my KOTOR game, even though I've had it since it came out..I'm just waaay behind everyone I guess lol. I've been blown away by how many great mods and added content so many people have put out for KOTOR..it's amazing.
A week ago I used some of the RedHawk mods, the Skip Taris mod, and one that give you some killer items..those all worked great..BUT I'm stuck on one that I really would love to see work.
That is the Jabba's palace side quest mod, with the Fett suit. No matter what I do, be it start completly over with a new game, reload the mods over and over, delete and uninstall KOTOR entirely, re DL the mods, re-install them (and yes, in the correct Override and Modules folders in the Kotor files)...it won't ever work for me? The pilots NEVER show up in the docking bay on Tat.
I get to that point, make sure I've done everything correctly, step off the ship on Tat...and want to take a hammer and beat myself in the head untill I see them...cause once again THEY AREN'T THERE!!!!!!
Oh man lol is there any info any of you might have that can help me? I just want to get the Fett suit, see Jabba..and all that sooo bad.
Also...and this is odd..even if I use the cheat mode to "giveitem" none of them (the ones related to the Jabba's mod) will work.....even though all of the regular items do, and other mod's items as well.
For some odd reason it's as though the item files, the UTI's for this specific mod are screwed up or something?
So please, anyone...lol help save my sanity.

ps: at this point the ONLY mod I have installed is the Jabba's one, I'm saved on Dant and about ready to leave to head to Tat.....again...but I've just done this, this morning, and it still didn't work for me. You know..it's just crazy the things that will make a grown man cry these days.

That does sound strange. Which version of the mod are you using? Because I know that we had made the mod compatible with the stormtrooper and clonetrooper mods so that it might be acting up because you are missing those mods. Now just to make certain you've walked around the entire docking area on tat and don't see the pilots correct. If that is the case try leaving and coming back or entering the main part of the city as it may be possible that the script isn't firing because it is being passed over because of first time entry issues.

Hey there, no I'm not using any other mods at the moment, as well as the stormtropper mods...none zero other then the Jabba's. Walked around the ship in the docking bay ...humm about 6 times now...each time I've double checked and made sure teh files are in teh right place, it's teh first planet I've visited, no other mods installed.... I will try going in and out of the bay to see if that triggers it.
No idea what version I'm using...perhaps you have one that is current? just to be sure. Also is there a version that has the auto installer/patcher with it..perhaps my files are getting corrupted durring transfer/regualr extration process? Are the actual Jabba's mod's suppossed to be mpg's or .mov files? and all the files in the overide's are coming up as unknown's? is this normal?
How about just showing me where I can get the actual uti's for the Fett suit and EE-3?
At least if this doesn't work I can use "giveitem" and get them on my pc.
Thx

I don't have anything more cuurent than you likely do and no this mod does not have the TSLpatcher installer. (At least not yet.) Have you tried leaving and coming back like I suggested? Also as I said this mod is designed to work with the stormtrooper mod and may be failing because you don't have it installed. However these are just possibilities and may not solve anything.

well ..this is what I did. I uninstalled KOTOR and deleted all my mod files. Then re-installed KOTOR and the Jabba's mod, the Brotherhood of Shadow mod and the Super Skip Taris mod....and it worked..kind of lol.
I then replayed through Dant ..entirely. Got to Tat and there were the pilots. After sqeeling with glee upon seing them, I talked to him, ecepted the mission to find the gear and lost pilot ..managed to get out to the Gamoreean pilot and deal with Gurke and his boys...they talked...told me how to get there and split. But when I tried to use the speeder or talk to the Gamoreean pilot it was a no go. Feeling frustrated once again I used the warp cheat to get myself to Jabba's and just look around. Jabba wouldn't converse, warped to Jabbas entrance..and Bib told me to bug off.
So I just looked through the files, did a "giveitem" and got the Boba Fett armor and weap.
Feeling better I went through all the planets, got all the maps, and got to the Leviathan. Finished that, rolled back to Korriban and chatted with a guy who appearently was supposed to be a rodian...but was an asian in Fett armor. I did what he asked, fought Deamon Drexal, talked to the Asian Fett, then back to Tat and talked to the Bith in the cantina and went on from there.
While on the Orion...many of the characters had no heads, what turned out to be the "Matilda" char was another headless npc but this time in Fett gear../yay for weirdness. Worked my way through that..and when confronted with the brotherhood of shadow toons they were headless soldier skins.
The Bro of Shadow story was cool and all..got stuck a few times..some things wouldn't trigger...but after logging out and reloading in and going trough it again I managed to continue the story line. The headless solider guys kind of blew...and then at the end , the recruitable Matilda char was still a headless Fett skin..even though the party pic showed her as a Twilek. After saving and rebooting I'm still stuck with a headless Fett armor clad sidekick..who is supposed to be a cool looking twilek..lol. Guess it's just one of those things.
And still can't get the speeder to work and let me go to Jabbas the right way.
eh well lol. what're gonna do?
Still..all in all it was new content that kept me up all night and working hard to fight my way trough and complete....something to be said for that.
The guy who did the Brotherhood of Shadow mod...get's two thumbs up from me.
Now I'm seriously condidering trying my hand at making a few new skins and doing a redo on a Fett set up. I'd like to see it have a little more depth and detail, perhaps somehow incorporate a flame thrower and a carbonite freeze into a gaunlet?
Lofty goals I know...but it's something to shoot for.
