@sithholocron...I'm not messing with the model at all so no...she will not be a party member anyways so you will not be able to alter her appearance.

Edit: I'll add a few cracks to a couple of the textures also.

First of, Newbiemodder, it looks INSANELY well done, and I salute you.

But I do have to say, the ancient fortress needs more, mud, dirt, foliage and whatever, since its ruins, and unless it just became ruins, plants should've grown there :P

Still, I will most definatly play this one!

Wondering if anyone with pretty good skinning skills would be willing to work on a special unique robe or armor skin for me. PM if interested and will discuss details. Thx.

Off the top of my head, if I were you, I'd speak to either J7, Dak Dexl, RedRob41, Drewton or 90SK. Those are pretty good skinners! By the way, they are not named in any kind of order.

@Darth Tartarus - Currently taking a little break from modding until after the holidays so things are on hold right now. As far as release date...2012 would be a stretch I think for either one...most of the work I've done so far has been for Onderon/Yuthura Ban mod.

The Onderon mod is much larger than the mini-sequel to the Korriban mod. If I had to put percentages on work done...Onderon = 45% and Korriban2 = 10%.

So, I quote Robert Frost..." And miles to go before I sleep."

So...2013? Or did I misunderstand what you meant by "a stretch"?

Whatever-I'll wait. I'm especially looking forward to Korriban2.

Hey all...getting back to modding following the holidays, so I thought I would give a little update.

Switching gears a little bit. Going to put the Onderon Expansion on hold while I work on the mini-sequel to the Korriban Expansion. It won't be too intensive, more of a hack-and-slash type mod. Titled NMK2: The Trials of Darth Herrco.

At some point in the game..you will switch over to Darth Herrco, the apprentice from the kolto tank in the final scene of my first mod, and go on a few adventures for Darth Poxus in his quest for revenge. When those quests are over, you will switch back to the exile and continue gameplay where you leftoff.

Now, the decisions you make as Darth Herrco will have an influence and determine the ultimate ending for Darth Herrco, as well as Darth Poxus, when they finally meet up with the exile again during gameplay. Light vs. Dark, etc, etc.

Here's a little cutscene that kind of sets the stage. Hope you like:

As far as the Onderon Expansion/Return of Yuthura Ban...like I said, putting on hold for a bit until I can crank the Korr2 one out.

I do have a couple of cutscenes for Yuthura, that I think I will release maybe this week. I planned to put them in game somewhere early in gameplay like on Telos or Peragus, but I think I will just release them as a stand alone videos which can be viewed prior to playing the mod.

Goodness!!! :freakout: and I was only interested on how Darth Poxus and his new apprentice story turnes out ...

after checking these "Onderon" city screenies, I'll give a go to Yuthura's expansion as well ;) ... impressive, very impressive "newbiemodder".

question though, M4-78 was removed content from original game wasn't it? meaning, we'll be able to play Onderon expansion without having droid planet mod installed?

keep up the amazing work :thmbup1:

when you defeat them at the end with the exile, will you get to pick up the reilics you got for him in the trails because that would be good for dark side players

Well? What are you waiting for? :)

Yep. All those models have been hex edited and exist as stand alone files. There will be no conflict.

YOU ARE SO AWESOME

Thanks Z. My ego and I love you too.

**UPDATE**

Things are coming along nicely with the Trials of Darth Herrco mod. I'm on a pretty good pace and knocking things out one by one. Pretty happy so far. Here are some pics

http://www.lucasforums.com/picture.php?albumid=746&pictureid=8946)

incorporated one of Quanon's models into the Korriban Wastes. That is Quanon's Revan Temple in the distance. Won't be for Revan though.

http://www.lucasforums.com/picture.php?albumid=746&pictureid=8947)

More Korriban.

http://www.lucasforums.com/picture.php?albumid=746&pictureid=8949)

The last two are also Quanon's. They were part of his lava planet. I did just a little reskin to make it more of ocean front property.

More to come in the future.

Hey guys and gals...just an update on the Trials of Darth Herrco mod. Coming along very well I think...figure it's proabably 75-80% done. Pretty happy so far. Have another module and a half to finish plus some things to tie it all together.

Here are some random pics...

Update: Things have slowed a little during the summer months with other things taking up my modding time. Kind of hit a slump on some dialog which is also adding to the slowdown. Hate writing dialogs :wornout: Also, I've decided to expand Herrco's last challenge area. Going to reskin an additional area which should be pretty cool when finished. All this means completion will not be as soon as I expected. Sorry

Hey all, getting back into the modding stuff now that summer is coming to an end. Had something banging around in my head so I decided to tackle it before restarting my story mods.

It was inspired by the return of Canderis to our modding community. ( I knew he would be back ). He was looking for area mods to do and I suggested Mos Eisley for K2. Well, not really sure where he and SS are going with their, ahem, project.....I decided to do it myself.

So, here are some ruff pics. REALLY ruff. Buildings have not been textured yet. Just doing the layout.

I plan to release this as a MODDING RESOURCE for other modders to use, hopefully. It will just be the area itself. It will be up to others to fill it with all the goodies.

Here are some pics

http://www.lucasforums.com/picture.php?albumid=746&pictureid=9257)
http://www.lucasforums.com/picture.php?albumid=746&pictureid=9256)

Once this is done, I will return to The Trials of DArth Herrco, then hopefully ONderon Expansion,.

Y'all come back now, y'hear....................

Looking pretty good Newbiemodder. Is there any chance the Mos Eisley models could work in KotOR 1? Or would that require so much work it wouldn't be worth it?

Sure, I can run the model thru Kaurora for a K1 version. No problemo.

Might I suggest a larger landing area for the Ebon hawk than the one seen in KotOR1?

It's been a while since I played K1 so the memory is a little foggy. I am basing my docking bays on Ep4 NH Falcon escape as well as images collected from google. They seem kind of small and compact.

Looking good, newbiemodder!
Nice work. You're just such a badass.

Thanks. My ego appreciates it.

Very nice! I'm curious as to where you are going to get the textures from.



I was just going to port them......just kidding. I will do my best to find something similar to K1 pics. I know there is a nice sand ground texture on K2 Korriban. I hope to match the blue sky as close as possible and find a similar sand/stone texture for the buildings. The nice thing about Tatooine is that most of the buildings are similar in color and texture. Not a whole lot of variation. K1 textures will provide a good base for comparison.

Fantastic! Still trying to get K2 to work on Windows 7. D; Let's have a contest shall we? Who finishes first: me getting KotOR II to work on W7 or you finishing this mod? IMO, it's pretty clear you're going to win. x.x I'll be missing out on one hell of a mod. Keep up the excellent work.
