The editor is mainly for converting binary to ASCII for use in 3DS Max and back to binary for use in the game. You can edit any of the data in an exported ASCII file and convert back, but only PWKs and DWKs (placeable and door meshes) can be used. Th... [Read More]

I'm working on some maps for Kotor Tool and I cam across this room on Peragus. It looks like something for a cutscene, but I don't remember seeing it; do any of you? http://kotortool.starwarsknights.com/images/forum/104per_mysteryroom.jpg It's part... [Read More]

No, it means that the file isn't tagged for one game or the other. Since each game version some data unique to it (dialog.tlk, etc.), Kotor Tool has to ask you to identify which one a file is for. Once you've saved a file, it's tagged with the game v... [Read More]
