I certainly don't believe he speaks for all PCers. I am a PC gamer too, but I prefer some types of games on the console while I prefer others on the PC... or I just can't get the game working on Linux, so I have to play the console version. Haven't looked into the XBox 2 yet myself. I just wait for the games, if I want to play it I'll buy the console when the need becomes great enough that I am willing to live off of ramen noddles for a few weeks. :D Is this Hades_One from the BioWare KotOR forums? Ah, memories. :cool: Just make sure you are pointed away from Ohio when you do it.

I find it interesting that you think we feel the Xbox superior when nobody has said that. Anywhere. Please show me where in this thread is is claimed that the XBox is superior, in any way. The truth is, you are the only one claiming that this game will be superior on the PC and will have 0 lag when you have absolutely no idea if that will be true, or if the game will even run properly with your configuration. The original KotOR is considered by many to be better on the Xbox. Owning both the PC and XBox version, I agree -- the control of the game is more fluid and battle control is a heck of a lot easier, in my opinion. So, how does my preference to playing a game make me any less wrong as to which version I prefer? I also run Linux, as many other do, and others run on a Mac. Why do you feel the need to insult those of us who are generally forced to choose the console version of the PC version? If you want to play the elitism game, I can bring down the roof on how horrible and operating system Windows is and how anyone who runs it is a mindless drone. Since I am smart enough, and secure enough, to know that is only 50% true (decide which part is true and which is false for yourself) I don't go around degrading a group of people who are already enjoying a game, as you sit and wait. I also tend to find that people who feel the need to degrade one group of gamers (PC vs console, going either way), let alone speak "l33t", simple have an inferiority complex that needs to be satisfied over the faceless void of the Internet in order to feel better about their own self. It seems to me that you need to go pick up a different game to pass the time, instead of troll these forums insulting people with baseless claims. Running around insulting people isn't going to make them think you cool, or make them think less of themselves... we just laugh at people who run around acting superior. Don't be that guy.

Fake Level Up is a glitch in the original KotOR game, for XBox, that allowed you to create a Jedi with as many feats, skills and Force powers as you wanted. A variation on the glitch allowed you to transform normally non-Jedi characters into Jedi as well. http://www.rightstep.org/kotor tells you how. I haven't updated the page to my new stylesheet though, so it isn't very pretty at the moment. Ah... a window of opportunity.

No, they couldn't. Such an alteration to the game can not be made through X-Box live. Aside from being extremely difficult to properly implement a dynamic patch for a read-only media format, Microsoft does not allow alterations to a games executable via Live (one of the few smart things Microsoft has done). Or what? In any case. I experienced slow downs in battle mostely in caves. I also experiences slow downs while walking. I switched between characters (black button) while in such a situation and it fixed the problem. I haven't seen a slow down since. Try your game on a friends XBox. Does it do the same thing? - Yes: trade in the disk for a new one. - No: your XBox is playing a roll in it. Go trade in the game and hope a few disk fixes the problem.

I have received slow downs in some battles. When I am in a cave, it seems to be the worse... my game froze in the Dantooine Crystal Cave and I went to something like .005 fps in the Korriban cave. On Korriban, I also had a great deal of trouble moving. My character acted as if she was running through water in slow motion. A quick character swap (black button) fixed that though, and I actually haven't run into slowdowns again. So, at least at the moment, my suggestion is to switch characters when you start to see slow down. We'll see if it works for others.

This is actually a pretty well known fact.

What planet is after Telos
Boiler98 replied to Sith Emperor's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
It really doesn't matter. I too went to Dantooine first, but many threads have indicated you can find the pieces to your lightsaber on any of the planets. -
Force Persuade: completely worthless?
Boiler98 replied to Drakoth's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
It is not available everytime you have a regular persuade option. It becomes more frequent as the game goes on, but there is no rule as to when it should be there. -
This should be posted in the spoiler section. But without spoiling... just keep playing, you'll find him.
-
When would she join you though? Is she the stowaway from Telos? If so, simply being lightside isn't enough.
-
Darth Gandolf seems to believe you can get both. I didn't get the handmaden to sneak aboard. Use the same dialog in both games, changing the sex/alignment of Raven and see if that does it. I doubt it is that though -- my assumption is that it has something to do with how you carry yourself at the Telos Academy.
-
That's true. But still -- you have to do things to keep the game "fresh" when you hit "New Game" for the 5th or 6th time.

This type of question is better suited for the Spoilers section. I also just answered the same question there about 20 minutes ago.

help with power cells on nar shaddaa(sp?)
Boiler98 replied to EldestCosmonaut's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
I'm on Nar Shaddaa right now, but I got a cell from the freighter pilot. I'll keep an eye out for others that pop up though. I'm starting to realize the importance of asking a little in return in KotOR2. In the first, there wasn't nearly as much need to consider your dialog -- almost every dialog had a transparent result. The dialog system in KotOR2 is a bit more tricky. -
Lightsaber parts question
Boiler98 replied to darth_nemisis's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
this post seems to imply that you can. -
No trouble. I'm just glad I could help, since I didn't do this to get into the Exchange.

I have entered into a little squable between two of my party members about their feelings and relationship towards me (female PC). It has not moved beyond simple innuendo though, and allows no involvement on my part. The cut scenes happen simply as I enter the Ebon Hawk. The "private actions" and back stories of the NPCs seem to be structured very differently, or not exist at all. My only complaint (story related) so far.
-
Don't go in solo mode. Put only yourself in the party. Now serving la_taylor, party of one.
-
Patients must be you path; do not rush to war. Wait. I've got a bloody beam of light shooting out my hind end and she tells talks to me... when she is ready to talk. You will naturally be able to get more stories out of your NPCs as the game goes on. To get better influence out of the discussions (and visiions) with Kreia you want to reply to her in a very neutal manner. Charity can just as easily cause pain, for example. Influence is gained/lost when you are directly speaking with the NPCs and if they are in your party when you perform an action. Sometimes, not having Kreia in your party is better -- you two are linked anyway, she sees all.
-
This has happened to me too. In some cases to the degree of making it impossible to play -- being luck to pull 1 fps. Thankfully, I wasn't fighting a hard battle with no save game in the last 2 hours.

how do i build the lightsaber?
Boiler98 replied to kashi220's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
Bao-Dur said to come talk with him when you had everything... try that. Edit: Curses... clicked that submit button a second too late! -
Depends on what you consider "really good items". I'm sure that there are limits to the random set of items that can be found within containers, and possibly an even smaller set per planet/area... and even more so, the subset could again shift as you level. I've picked up some very nice robes. But no quad-bladed lightsaber yet.
-
Unfortunately since we have all only gone through this section once (or so I would assume) it would be hard to pinpoint the location of this item. However, I don't remember having to go out of my way to get anything. Walk through each of the sections (slowly) and look around for anything you might have missed. Sorry I can't give you an exact room.

Help with power cells in Nar Shaddaa(sp?)
Boiler98 replied to EldestCosmonaut's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
You probably want to direct your question to the Spoilers section. -
Didn't think about that one. I'll have to keep that in mind as I look around. :D
