Jackula Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 Everyone in the game are just a pair of eyes, no body, no head, oh yes, there's a shadow of the body but the body just isn't there. I have tried both the BETA nvidia drivers and the latest normal drivers but none can solve this problem. My specs XP1800 512DDR WinXP SP2 DX9c Currently BETA drivers 128MB Geforce Ti4400 (all gfx settings on default) Please? Jack
Kiwegapa Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 whoa..freaky. Can you post the contents of your swkotor2.ini file and maybe a small screenshot?

Master Dahvernas Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 Change: [Game Options] BodyVariation=0 -------> BodyVariation=9 See if that helps.
vadrillan Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 I hate to say it but that's probably the weirdest thing I've yet seen on this forum. I've had heads dissapear in some mods for NWN but nothing like that in TSL... Good luck...
calgacus Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 Here you go <{POST_SNAPBACK}> that is seriously freaky and quite probably the funniest thing iv ever seen in a game!
Master Dahvernas Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 You know what I *think* may be the problem? I think KOTOR II actually has a DX9c Shader warper working along with the OpenGL renderer. What this means is that you are going to need a DX9 card. The 4400 (I have one; great card) is not a DX9 card. It is a DX 8 card. This *might* be why it isn't rendering the character model. I know it is a long shot... But the reason I am coming to this conclusion is that I started the game on a FX 5900 Ultra because of Nvidia's improved OGL performance... But then switched back to my ATI 9800 Pro XT and the game runs BETTER than it does on the Nvidia card (and the game is OpenGL is my point). This is what is leading me to believe there are DX9 features being used. In fact, I think all the fog -- like the gas in Peragus Mining Tunnels and the Jekk Jekk 'Tar -- Are DX9 Shaders (particles). Like I said, I am just making an educated guess off the top of my head and could be totally wrong. But from deduction and what I see in the difference of perofmance from my 5900 to the 9800 this is the conclusion I am coming too.
ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 I know it's not funny for you. But I those screenies really made me laugh. I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now. Deals like this kills development studios. 478327[/snapback]
BattleCookiee Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 Master Dahvernas, You're wrong. I have a DX 7 card and this doesn't happen to me.... And I have the fog (no DX9 card needed, however just a bit of smoke severly injures my framerate)
Master Dahvernas Posted February 24, 2005 Posted February 24, 2005 Master Dahvernas, You're wrong. I have a DX 7 card and this doesn't happen to me.... And I have the fog (no DX9 card needed, however just a bit of smoke severly injures my framerate) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hmm. Well, it was worth a shot. Sorry, Jackula. I have no idea what the problem is. I suppose you could: 1) Re-Install the game (save your Saves folder). 2) Re-Install the latest Nvidia Drivers. 3) Re-Install DirectX 9c. (Then run the DirectX tests; make sure everything is enabled) 4) Do a virus scan of your system to make sure it isn't infected. 5) Go into your BIOS and make sure all your AGP settings are set up correctly. Other than that... I don't know what else to suggest.
airic Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 If this problem is present when you first start the game then I can only suggest a full uninstall and reinstall of the game. If you want to save your game saves, copy them to a different location on your hard drive then run the uninstall from the program menu. After that navigate to the c:\program files\lucasarts and make sure the KOTOR2 folder is deleted. Then you should be able to reinstall or reboot and reinstall the game.
Horus Posted February 26, 2005 Posted February 26, 2005 Funniest thing I ever met in these game. - -; So, Kreia, She has eyes...Right?
Jackula Posted February 26, 2005 Author Posted February 26, 2005 I have done everything MD said, reinstall DX9c, reinstall nvidia drivers, remove and reinstall the game and check my computer for viruses (I did find a trojan btw), but it still does not work, grrr. Think it's about time to give up, thanks heaps.
Kiwegapa Posted February 26, 2005 Posted February 26, 2005 Well, tell us if the patch fixes this problem after it comes out. I'm curious. The closest thing I've had on this is on Dantooine where my computer got lagged down for a second or two because of background activity and a character's head disappeared. They were finishing their conversation and when it was over they stood there for a few seconds. First their head faded out, then a few seconds later, so did their body. It was like a weird Cheshire Cat thing.
MacGamer Posted February 27, 2005 Posted February 27, 2005 Funniest thing I ever met in these game. - -; So, Kreia, She has eyes...Right? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Funniest. Screenshot. Ever. Forget Kreia, I wanna know about Visas' eyes. heh.

DirectX games normally take 5 to 6 months to port.
