KotOR2 - M4-78 Droid Modules (now with music!)

[Razorlvirus]

TSLCRM has issues with Stoney's M4-78, but... they are making another mod called M4-78E which not only restores M4-78 but also adds more to it, so it's not just a restoration mod anymore.

I just wish some talented modders would get together and finish Sleheyron, I know it would take time but the effort would defidently be worth it

[birthdaycake13]

what is that soundtrack?

[maxboy1athotmailcom]

how do you get it like that?

[PiggyFate]

the original timeline of the game was supposed to be longer but things were cut from the game due to rush up holiday

[scarletguard]

Read my info section - which gives a lot more information from the game's producer.

[WWEvTNA2009]

If they didn't rush it out by holiday, just imagine what could have been in the game.

[lespaulman1]

so can u only get mods for the computer version? i have the xbox one and just wondered if you can get a mod for it?

[RadioP24]

yeah, PC exclusive only, it is extremely hard or impossible to mod our Kotor games for Xbox

[neverslep24]

yeah only on PC

but u can mod xbox's though

[YukiLT]

Download it off the torrents :)

[Kotorloverz20]

in reality, i think i would get bored of this place, just like if i was to get bored of Telos. Because if this was still in the game, and something else was cut out, then i think it would be the case of. Oh i would like to see what Telos is all about, because this droid planet is a bit boring now. but i would still like to investigate this planet like the rest.

[MGRAY700]

they should do that make an expansion pak for KOTOR II all of the content that was cut will b put bak in

[GeneralBerger]

I wonder why they didn't make the original game so they could release it for the holiday season then about 5 or 6 months later make a nice expansion pack

[Ariashal]

Amazing. That's such a fascinating level -- it differs so much from the rest of the game! It's too bad that it wasn't officially released. :/

[boxacholic]

alright place but more interactiable objects needed adding like malfunctioning driods that shoot each other(kinda like the mos eisley version)

[jbcblb0808]

where do i extract the files in the first link

[StarTrekfan777]

This is why I dislike KOTOR 2. because they cut so many things out. Lucas was the one who pushed obsidian to get the game out by Christmas. (That and the original story was much like peragus)

[bluesharkoon]

nice vid, a shame they had to cut it out. the music is really great, very creepy.

[Trayusstudent1]

Metropolis style?

[Mirc13ever]

watch?v=d6HfP4z4vho at 0:32 roflmao its in the trailer :))

[scarletguard]

Good catch!

[vizaharan]

when i have downloaded the this mod, where have i to put this file?

[scarletguard]

I suggest reading the read me file that came with the mod.

[kiyoshi147]

Wow... it's a shame that so much was cut. Thank you for sharing!

[kotor4ever]

SIICK! but where did you hear this from man?

[kotor4ever]

so whats the deal with kotor 3?

[sylarham]

They plan to make an Kotor MMO, i am unsure however if that is Kotor 3, or a seperate MMO. I also heard rumors they were going to make Kotor 3 with single player and a multiplayer component.

[R5Reject]

maybe team gizka will bring it back eh? they are almost done with the sith lords restoration project ;) they only have 9 bugs left XD

[sylarham]

They are not adding the droid planet in TSLRP, but they are adding the HK droid factory.

[Riku181]

am i the onyl guy eher taht knows theres a mod for this...... its at filefront

[Riku181]

is it me or did anyone else see that landing platform in the trailer....?

damn obsidan is lazy tehy coudlnt even edit the damn trailer.

[Stevo5000X]

Dont blame obsidan it wasnt there fault Lucas arts gave them a short time table to complete this game. Lucas Arts is just money hungrey now... they dont give a shit about the fun in games now.. Just like the game Tie Fighter never will see that type of talent ever again.. It is still said that is the number 1 game of lucas arts even today!

[Riku181]

yes we all know lucas Arts rushed the game. but obsidan shoulda damanded more time. they shoulda been more responsible to release a full game instead of a half doen 2 bit game. AND THEY SHOULDA BEEN RESPONSIBLE TO EDIT THE DAMN TRAILER ITs NOT THAT HARD!!!

[barno65]

its bad enough they cut out the hk droid factory now we find out the cut an entire planet.

[pridakfan253]

I really like the first song that plays in the video. Is there anywhere I can download it?

[merules1]

this reminds me of a red nar shadda

[bigderf]

Quick Question. Didn't "Darth Stoney" Make a working Restoration mod of the planet?

[PastramiXXX]

Yep, there's a download link on the video description.

[pavelpet]

eh no..thats the normal size

[scarletguard]

NOTE:

The supplementary information for this video on the upper right side of this web page has been updated as of 24MAY08.

[donnieij]

i updated my kotor 2 in gotos yacth one of containers was a m478 droid module datapad something i dont know what it is??

[littlebluewolfie]

hmm...i'd really like to now what was the idea behind the fish as behavior cores...firaxan sharks as controllers of droids? now it all makes sense! :P

[sardonic667]

I like the music thats playing

[platypusguineapig]

do find a jedi here 2

[77yy770]

how do i use mods?lol

[Mrosen7542]

I love KOTOR II's dark, sultry theme.

I want the restoration project so badly.

[smithjones96]

how u get there

[viewer8D]

at 4.53-wtf?? why is there a raatan tehnology??

[spartanpat115]

just the computer dude

[marmar3128305]

can it still be played on da xbox or just on the computer??????????????

[77yy770]

comp only

[playa8624]

Did anybody else recognise the creatures in the tanks near the end? They are the giant farixa shark from the first KOTOR!

[77yy770]

ya i noticed i didnet know they were the sharks though!

[ManelinhoAraujinho]

Near the end of the video there are two huge rooms each one has a beast inside of it. Was that meant to appear? :S

[RevanTheUltimate]

wow, where do you GET this module?

[Alak666]

I'm st happy, andd i hope they finish it all. the game was fun, a good follow up, but in KOTOR iworked many an hour to find EVERY single subplot, and when i played KOTOR 2 it enraged, frustrated and made me want to cry when i couldnt follow up on the HK subplot, when i couldnt follow up on the tracing the signal on nar shadaa, and so many other things. i love the game but it felt empty, so im extremely pleased with this, Thank you Res project and designers. i hope all goes well

[Reven234]

can u tell me what the TSL means

[MasterCheif95]

TSL stands for The Sith Lords as in the second kotor game

[Reven234]

ooooooooooooo

[DarkLink93939]

(to the creaters of this game and you if you made it too) I don't mean to be rude, but enough of that retarded excuse! I played the game again and it took about two days to beat! Seriously, video games are supposed to be CHALLENGING! This means that you HAVE to put A LOT of things in the game to make it more fun! There's no point in a game if you cut 50% of it! I can't even get the Team Gizka mod because it's a download and it'll mess up my computer!

[H00ligan93]

guys i cant lower down that sheil it needs authorization

[neterwan]

This planet in reality is nothing special. Look at Manaan and Taris in KOTOR there is their own design,smth really attractive. And what we have here?

I don't want to be rude, but the planet is pretty dull, and that's not because the streets are empty. It's because people from Obsidian put less effort in KOTOR2 than Bioware in KOTOR.

Still I would like to see M4-78 as a correspondent part of KOTOR2. Though it in many ways resembles Peragus, Nar Shaddaa and of course Telos...

[Merhawk102]

Well see someone sent droids to the planet to work on it and then the Sith discovered M4-78 and took control of the droids so they could reprogram them to make a Sith Base all around the planet. After a while some poisonous gas was released all over the planet and then the Sith made all droids to attack any life forms that decided to land on the planet before they died, which halted all construction plans. And the gas killed ALL life forms except for the droids.

[Merhawk102]

(Continuing) That's why it's called the droid planet. It's not that M4-78 had no creativity behind it, it's just like that because of whatever chaos happened on the planet, it made the droids stop working on M4-78. That's why it looks dull.

[neterwan]

I agree, but actually I was referring to the original map - the buildings and doors. E.g. on Onderon they used transformed doors from Dantooine =( The point is, that somehow Obsidian decided to put less effort in some of the maps.

[nemezispliuklwqe4]

ctrl + c -> setsecurity 99

and u will open it ( at 99+ security u can open every door )

[spanishax]

wait, i dont get it. y do the behavior cores all hav Firaxan sharks in them? and also, wat do ppl mean wen they talk about "modules" and that "they're are still a few modules found in the game"? sry if my questions seem stupid, but this video is the 1st i've ever herd of this planet. (i hav a feeling that this wood b 1 of those planets that i hate like nar shadaa (dont remember how 2 spell it) or peragus II.)

[scarletguard]

Read the "About This Video" section on this page

[KenshiUchiha]

all iu want to know is what promoted them to go to m4

[thefranchisetheman]

how do you get to this point?

[scarletguard]

My suggestion: click the "About This Video" link you see on this page to read a lengthy entry about it

[nemezispliuklwqe4]

if lightsaber not working , use bao dur hand ;)

[fucduck]

bao dur can "hand" everything

lol

[KillerKoala56]

What soundtracks did you use, names of songs plz

[scarletguard]

The music used for the M4-78 areas are on the KOTOR2 Game discs. The music files are compressed - you'll need to decompress the using Miles Sound Tools. (Google it and you'll find it.)

I can't recall which of the songs I used but all of the M4-78 music should be listed below. The files you should look for in the StreamMusic folder are: mus_a_800, mus_a_800b, mus_a_800core, mus_a_801, mus_bat_800, and mus_sbat_800.

Good luck with your decompressing and listening!

[DantesInfeno]

Wasn't Vash meant to be here?

[Merhawk102]

Yeah.

[UndecidedRPGplayer]

I thought Lightsabers, in TSL, had the ability to rend force fields, so why couldn't u do that here?

[scarletguard]

I had tried that in previous run throughs but force fields were not removed using the lightsabers.

[masterDevis]

Who's the droid in Central?

[Merhawk102]

Um, you all know that you can also get modded mission script gamesave files for the XBox version of KOTOR 1 and 2 right? You can get them from XBox Live, you can convert the modded PC mission script gamesave files to be compatible for XBox, or the simplest way is to get an AR XBox card with the software disk and get the files from the software and download them to the card. Then transfer the file from the card into the XBox memory cre under the game title.

[scarletguard]

Tea, Gizka wasn't making it. Team Gizka hosted Team Bantha on their site who were working on it. (Until Team Bantha cancelled working on it.)

[sirsimpson4]

I thought Team Gizka were making this mod, they were going to, but cancelled it until further notice

[SavMil89]

Aww man i want M4-78 :)At least we will get the Team Gizka`s mode :)

[Sabratha1985]

If...

[hathathatkilenckilen]

Interesting!

[malpense]

Oh cool... so cool

[scarletguard]

The sharks, as I mentioned in my video description, were likely placeholders for the M4-78 Behavior Cores - which do have voice files.

I realize this video is a little dull especially without voice files which is why I placed the M4-78 music into the video.

[themadblimper]

This video just shows how much of an unfinished game KotOR 2 really is... Its depressing that LucasArts had to force obsidian to release it unfinished just so they could get it out in time for christmas.

Thankfully, there is a restoration project that has been in the works for the past year or so, which you can find by searching for "team-gizka" on google.

[scarletguard]

I know about Team Gizka - it's how I found out about M4-78. Unfortnately, they won't be restoring M4-78, due to there not being many voice files to work with and that most of the quests were moved to other planets.

[Dris1234]

Hey....why did they discontine working on this mod(Team Bantha or whatever)?

I wish they could have tried to finish the mod....Team Gizka is going to finish THEIR mod...

[scarletguard]

To see what Pavlos (one of the leads on Team Bantha) said about why it didn't wind up completing, visit this link: forums(dot)team-gizka(dot)org/­viewtopic(dot)php?t=2119

[Raffaello9]

they weren't as organized as Team Gizka, and the mod would have required a massive rescripting of the area, since these are merely "bits" of a larger scheme

[Mandalore738]

i remembered that landing pad from an early trailer and i was so interested in that planet

now i really want to know what was suppose to be in it

[scarletguard]

There were several droids on the planet as well - there were several droids - the Star Forge droids from the last game as well. As I was only showing a walkthrough of the layout, the droids have already been defeated. Most of the quests that were originally going to take place here were moved to the other planet that stayed in the game. There are a few voiceover files that were not utilized. (You can hear some of those - the ones where you talk with Vash - in my video of the Vash mod.)

[Uchiha899]

I think the HK-50 plant was supposed to be there.Man, so much they could've done with KotOR I and II

[scarletguard]

Actually the HK-50 plant was supposed to be in the Telos Czerka military base.

[DantesInfeno]

Well It may have been there, before they moved it to telos, and cut it. but I may have heard wrong

[4GDragon]

What was the deal with the sharks from Mannan?

[4GDragon]

The ending of KOTOR...was a huge disappointment. I expected something to pop out about my acadmey on Onderon, or where my HK where tell me where this was. The ending sucked and left me wanting more.

[Dris1234]

hopefully the TSLRP wii give u what ya wanted....

And i think the HK 50 droids were supposed to attack u at random so they might have pooped outta that academy

[4GDragon]

Really? Without "Out of game" knowlege it felt like they were just slapped in their to be honest

[Dris1234]

yeah....without my outta game gangsta knowledge i felt the same.....

not anymore though....

[scarletguard]

Poison War, please read the video description in the upper right portion of this page. (It may be better han the video itself. Which is sad really.)

[PoisonWar]

what planet is this 0.o

ive beatten the game on dark side and my bro on light and none of us got here.... is this a mod or a cheat? a secret planet?

[Dris1234]

read da vid description

[JackZackJason]

hey dude, your chick needs to level up.

[bobsaggit4218]

i agree with thought fox they should have finished the whole game instead of rushing throught everything. Apparently Atton was suposed to die, hk 47 killed goto,and the party attacked kreia before you even got there. the entire party was caught by sion and you had to save them. plus there is sooooo many glitches in the game.

[thoughtfoxdk]

had heard they cut alot of stuff off, but a hole planet ?! tbh they sould not have rushed this game, it one of the best games i have ever played of the RPG type only seound to vampire bloodlines. would really have like good old HK-37's story, (who you can still find sould files from wich some of them is very amuseing). they sould not have given a deadline of only a year after the frsit if you ask me, thanks for showing this, one can only hope TSLRP remake it as they did with other things :)

[bobsaggit4218]

yeah honestly it's not that good it woulda been better if you faught something, and if you do fight something im sorry cuz i didn't watch the hole thing cuz i got bored. Nice try though

[Seal481]

You have to understand there isn't anything he could have fought. It's just a set of empty modules from a cut planet.

[Macharan]

WTFFFF!!!! where is that?!?!?!?! that must be obviously a mood!!! man thats the strangest thing i have ever seen!!

[Merhawk102]

That's the planet M4-78. When the producers rushed this game, they left out an entire planet. This was supposed to be part of the game, and yes, this is one weird planet.

[tpiom]

haha.. cool music :)

[NihilusReborn]

NOW WITH MUSIC! LOL
