I've been messing around with scripts recently and I seem to have come upon a problem. I'm not sure if I've edited the wrong script or if my code is off, but I can't seem to get an object to spawn whenever I enter a module. Which script should I modi...  [Read More]

You could try looking for 002_EBO_****.tga, EBO_****.tga, and leh_****.tga. You might be using the Ebon Hawk LS Reskin, though I'm not sure. @Ferc Kast, I think that it is the Final Touch mod by Oldflash. HK-42 can probably confirm. - Star Admiral...  [Read More]

I know, that is probably the most ridiculous of the force restrictions, as what armor you're wearing shouldn't affect your ability to perceive what is going to happen. The interesting thing is that the Zeison Sha armors also block the power, even tho...  [Read More]

I've been messing around with removing the force restriction that armor imposes on the wearer, and I've noticed that there doesn't seem to be a way to remove the force restriction for the Battle Precognition power (the power that adds your wisdom mod...  [Read More]

Got it. It's working. Perhaps I'm a little unobservant, but what exactly did you change? I must thank everyone here for spoon-feeding me info on getting the simple icon straight. :emodanc: I really need to improve my editing skills. On a side note...  [Read More]

Yes, the model variation is set to 5. The icon appears ingame, but the black background around it won't disappear. I am running on high texture settings. Would it make a difference? As I understand it, there are three texture packs, one for each lev...  [Read More]

I'm using Photoshop Extended CS3, so would the plugin work? Since I've had such difficulty creating a new icon, I've decided to first attempt a simple recoloring of an existing one. Predictably, it didn't work. If someone would be kind enough to off...  [Read More]

I tried what you suggested, and it worked. Photoshop saved the alpha channel. The problem though, is that the background is still there. I must be doing something wrong, as Photoshop can see the alpha channel but the game can't. Any suggestions? -...  [Read More]

Since I'm completely graphics illiterate, I find that I have grave difficulties when it comes to creating custom icons for new items in the game. Every time I save the icon, it comes up in the game with a beautiful white background around it that tot...  [Read More]

I've never played the original KOTOR (I know, gasp! :D), so please bear with me. Judging from experience, I would say that Jolee's robe might be located in one of the module files. Go to the one where you first meet up with him and check for the robe...  [Read More]

Not sure if it would make any difference, but you could try unequipping the robe Bastila is wearing, removing the item from your inventory with KSE, and then adding it back in. Sometimes when you install a mod and receive an item changed by the mod a...  [Read More]

I have a question regarding damage immunity and resistances. I know that they don't stack, but when computing the damage dealt to a player, which effect is added first? If I'm not mistaken, the resistance subtracts so many points from the damage deal...  [Read More]

There's a bug in KotorTool which maps the value for the Upgrade Level field to the Body Variation input box instead when editing armors and robes. So you need to put the upgrade level value in that box instead for it to be saved. For some reason, I...  [Read More]

I have a question regarding upgrading armor and robes. How would you go about removing the restrictions on upgrade types? For example, some robes can only be upgraded with some underlays, while others can't be upgraded at all. The same goes for armor...  [Read More]

@Darth Payne, I've been bantering around the idea of doing as you suggested, except I almost feel an overwhelming desire to create some sort of side quest involved in obtaining the more exotic crystals. Before I get carried away, I'll probably end up...  [Read More]

@Darth Payne, I guess I could do so, but there are already two LS and two DS crystals in the game. Maybe a neutral variant usable by both alignments. I've noticed that DS items tend to boost strength while LS items boost wisdom. Does that mean that a...  [Read More]

I just need a few pointers for setting up the crystal properties. In terms of damage types, what exactly is Universal damage? Does it do damage in all categories, i.e., sonic, energy, fire, etc, or is it a unique type of damage that can't be shielded...  [Read More]

Release it? I hadn't thought of that. I just wanted to add more upgrade crystals for my own game, since the crystals in the game had rather miserable stats and the types available numbered much less than the list in Wookiepedia, for example. Sure, w...  [Read More]
