Deadly_Nightshade Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 While the modification might be possible, I, as a semi-experienced modder of several other games, doubt that you will be able to bring a team together until you can actually contribute to your own project. People come up with all sorts of outlandish ideas and post them hither and yon, but almost all of them never become anything more than a wild speculation - let alone a usable mod. You are proposing a full-conversion modification, something that would require a tremendous amount of effort, and it is nearly impossible without a dedicated staff of experienced modders - something you do not have, nor are you likely to gather one. I recommend that you learn about the Kot0R tools that are available and start your mod, as that is the best way to convince people that you are serious about the project. "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will do my best. Even if it takes me forever I will make it happen. Thanks for your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadly_Nightshade Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 You should try these sites: http://www.lucasforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=324 http://www.starwarsknights.com/tools.php http://kotortool.starwarsknights.com/ "Geez.

I am having me and a friend brainstorm some ideas and things. Im starting to learn and do the tutorials....hopefully I'll be putting this into action soon. Anyone is welcome to help and give ideas and contributions....it would be cool. First im trying to figure a name for the project. Again, here's the basics of what im trying to do: - Academy/training facility where I can train assassins/bounty hunters - Put bounties on certain people's heads - Have rival gang academy - Rival gang randomly tries to assassinate me - I get security guards - Ability to conquer rival gangs base by killing their leader (whose guarded by heavy security) - Have nonstop action by the rival gang randomly trying to attack my academy - Another possibility would be have multiple gang academies and you can decide which one you want to join - Each one has their own academy - Be able to recruit people for your academy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erei33 Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 The ideas you have listed are indeed good, but that mod would take way to long to make. The proposed mod would require new models, textures, animations, and modules= You might as well hire Bioware Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warmech Posted November 4, 2007 Author Share Posted November 4, 2007 I really am passionate about this mod. Even if I take an attempt and do really really bad, I really want to try and do this anyways. I am learning about some of these mods and area editing tools and all that. Any links to tutorials about area editing and all that. I would really appreciate it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warmech Posted November 4, 2007 Author Share Posted November 4, 2007 Alright. After a few tutorials and some playing around. I got a little basics.....I wanted to play around with it now by copying the mandalorine academy in that jungle and placing it on another planet, (not getting rid of the original, just copying it and placing the copy on another planet) Am I able to do that? And is there any tutorial like that, that could show me how to do that? Or do any of you guys have any basic instructions on how to do it? (I have the kotor tool) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I have the kotor tool) I'm not necessarily trying to be a defeatist jackass, but as others in the thread have mentioned, the scope of the mod you're talking about is almost certainly beyond the realm of anybody that's not, say, Obsidian or Bioware. Hell, the TSL Restoration Project guys have been working on their mod since I think shortly before the Kennedy assassination, and last I heard it's not due out until sometime in the late 2020s. And they've got a team, the basic building blocks of what they're trying to do already embedded in the game, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mainstreet Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 I can also say that what you want is far enough removed from the game you may as well take the engine and make a completely new game...
