In that case, use KT's Module Editor. Navigate to the folder where you have saved the custom module files and open it. I haven't tried using it but that should be the way to go. Note: I'm not sure whether KT can correctly modify the module files wit...  [Read More]

First, open up KT. Expand KOTOR II, then RIMs, then Modules. Locate the module you wish to spawn the NPC in. Let's pretend it's 003EBO. Expand 003EBO.rim, then Static Area Info. Double-click on the file 003ebo.are. In the text file that opens, scroll...  [Read More]

As I understand it, you put the spawning script in the dialog file, right? But since the dialog will only trigger when you talk to the NPC, and the NPC will only spawn when triggered by the dialog, we end up going in circles. You'll need to trigger t...  [Read More]

Spawn the NPC like you did before, without adding anything to the dialog file. If you use KT, you add the dlg file name in the textbox under the Conversation heading. Look at the screenshot for an example. http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/610/dial...  [Read More]

You'll need to decide exactly where you want to place the box first. First, fire up K1, go to the location where you want to put the box and use the whereami cheat to get the coordinates of that location. Write down those numbers. Then, you'll need t...  [Read More]

For K1, as DarthParametric pointed out, the effects of the power crystal has to be added to each of the saber .uti's for the bonuses to take effect on all the lightsabers. And you have to add the power crystal to upgrade.2da. However, I strongly sus...  [Read More]

I'm a little confused as to what kind of problem you're having. Are you replacing one of the in-game crystals, or are you creating a brand new one? And what bonuses are the crystals supposed to give? If you could clarify a bit as to what you mean by...  [Read More]

Two questions that have been bugging for a while since I've starting modding. First off, exactly how much attribute damage is done when it hits? The On Hit Properties area doesn't let you specify how much, so I assume that it is stored in some .2da f...  [Read More]

Yes, I've seen that particular mod and used it. I was just wondering if it were possible to create it as a spell. Call me lazy, but I sometimes dislike having to constantly switch armbands. I'll give it a roll and if I succeed, I'll post my results....  [Read More]

I was kind of expecting that. Thanks anyway. Out of curiosity, I've been looking through the scripting tutorials for making new force powers, and it occurred to me that it might be possible to add the saber forms to K1 by scripting them as a buff po...  [Read More]

What script controls the bonuses that the lightsaber forms in TSL grant the player? I've looked into the spells.2da file, but I can't seem to find them, as they don't have an entry in the impactscript column. Can they even be changed at all, or is it...  [Read More]

Ah, and how do I hex edit the hilt MDL? I can't seem to find a tutorial on what tools to use for the job. BTW, once I get the color crystal into the game, how do I add additional icons for the crystal. The game has only so many built-in icons, so if...  [Read More]
