Unfortunately, it seems that there isn't one convenient function for all your stat checks. You'll need to look at the set of scripts starting with c_sc_*.nss and pick the one that you need. Each skill has four scripts, one to check for greater, one f...  [Read More]

Does the Shadows of the Empire mod change any of the smoke textures on the main screen? Before I got a better graphics card, the main menu used to drag more than the game itself if I enabled AA with all the smoke swirling around. Apart from that, not...  [Read More]

Now that I'm home, here is an example of the script. To disguise someone, use something like this: void main() { effect eDisguise = EffectDisguise( 4 ); ApplyEffectToObject( DURATION_TYPE_TEMPORARY, eDisguise, GetObjectByTag( "tagofnpc" ),...  [Read More]

Yes indeed, EffectDisguise() works. :) More efficient than equipping/unequipping armor with a disguise property. - Star Admiral...  [Read More]

In general, try not to use global booleans for simple things like dialog conditionals, unless it is quest-specific dialog. You can easily do the same with local booleans, thus avoiding the need to modify the globalcat.2da file. void main() { SetLoca...  [Read More]

Alternatively, you can use tk102's DLGEditor available here (http://www.starwarsknights.com/tools.php). Works much the same way, but it can be used for TSL as well. Welcome to the forums and happy modding. :) Word to the wise, might want to reduce t...  [Read More]

Not quite. You need a savegame before you first entered the Tatooine desert. Once a location is entered, the level and stats of the NPCs in it are set, and changing your Override folder will not reset them. - Star Admiral...  [Read More]

You'll need to load a savegame before you first leave Tatooine for the changes to take effect. Good luck with that mod, I found it too difficult for my tastes. :) - Star Admiral...  [Read More]

True enough. But at least the problem is restricted to TSL only, and there aren't a huge number of Force mods out for TSL. stoffe's High Level Powers with Improved AI is in general the most common one used, but that one does take the Force forms into...  [Read More]

Did you add it to the script of the new power, or did you add it directly to the k_inc_force.nss file? Be careful with editing that file, because it WILL cause massive incompatibilities with many mods. - Star Admiral...  [Read More]

Try this. I assumed that NPC1 is set to hostile and NPC2 is set to neutral. If you want NPC1 to start neutral and become hostile after a dialog, you'll need to attach a separate script to the dialog file. Be sure to set the Minimum 1HP flag in NPC1'...  [Read More]
