There should be no TPC files in the Override of a fresh install of the original release of the game, or after the 1.03 patch....  [Read More]

Hrmm..are you using the later re-released version (on a DVD I think) rather than the original (multi CD) release? That's already prepatched. TPC files are just TGA images - textures etc....  [Read More]

The Twi'lek female heads in TSL are the same as those in K1. They all share variations of the same model - the only difference is the lekku positions. Mission's head is a different model with its own map. The UV map for her lekku are split off onto t...  [Read More]

The merchant area looks good. Nice job on getting the poly count lower than the docks area - no mean feat when dealing with so many rounded shapes. What is the poly count incidentally? The textures look pretty good too, although the ground texture do...  [Read More]

Looking good guys, although that's a freaking huge open area - dunno if the engine will handle enough NPCs to really give the proper hustle and bustle of a busy port/dock. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with though....  [Read More]

Interesting. Might be a nice change of pace to tramp through an industrial/dock area - the Nar Shaddaa "docks" never really did it for me. It will be interesting to see if you can get an appropriate "hive of activity" type feeling...  [Read More]

For future versions or other releases I'd say you want to spend a bit more time tweaking the hand position. The hand helpers in both games are gimped, but you shouldn't get that much clipping....  [Read More]

The only thing I can suggest is (I wouldn't call it an improvement, but an alternative) for the neck armour / hood area, I might have tried keeping the hood folds, and putting the Malak neck armour inside of them (where the dark neck hole is). Yeah I...  [Read More]

As far as I recall, in the Korriban hologram she is wearing the Dark Jedi Master robes, the same as she wears in K1 when you meet her on the temple top. I virtually never play LS in either game, so I can't recall what she wears in the Telos appearanc...  [Read More]

Not really. Could be the result of disc corruption or some glitch during the install, or possibly an issue with your graphics card/drivers and Open GL. If it isn't game breaking I'd just ignore it....  [Read More]
