[KOTOR] Recruitable Kay - a KotOR Recruitment Mod

Inyri · 12-24-2007, 12:01 PM

It's been a year and a half in the making, but here it is finally. Recruitable Kay provides a new character for your KotOR experience, replacing Juhani, and includes full voiced dialogue, a three-planet side quest, and a new experience. Kay will join you on Tatooine if you decide to use her and will remain with you til the end of the game. She's also not shy, so if you bring her with be prepared to hear her speak just like any other character would!

>>Download Recruitable Kay from KotORFiles<<
>>Download the 1.01 Patch from KotORFiles<<
>>Download the 1.01a Hotfix from KotORFiles<<

Make sure to check out Shem's lengthy review for more details, and as always read the read-me! It's very important to make sure everything works properly.

I was wondering when you'd post this here.

Very cool, Inyri-buns

Arátoeldar · 12-25-2007, 08:09 AM

Awesome mod IF.

Eagle Racer · 12-25-2007, 12:03 PM

Looks good. Must have been a ton of work with all the scripting. Can't wait to check it out in game.

Lordjedi · 12-25-2007, 03:07 PM

Downloaded it and it's great 10/10

Ferc Kast · 12-25-2007, 06:10 PM

About to install this; BTW, isn't the original saber model with a new hilt the same (if my eyes aren't decieving me, that is)? Looks cool either way!

Darth InSidious · 12-25-2007, 06:12 PM

I think it's just similar, and it's quite a small pic there.

Not sure I get what you mean. I made the hilt toward the end of the modding process. It's one of the few hilts I've done that were original designs.

Ferc Kast · 12-25-2007, 07:03 PM

I meant, was it "old model, new texture" or "new model, new texture" as far the lightsaber is concerned? This is merely curiousity because this and the original sabers remarkably similar.

Darth Payne · 12-25-2007, 07:07 PM

Umm, what happens if i use the same face for my PC as Kay has?

My current PC could be Kay's twin.

Inyri · 12-25-2007, 07:13 PM

I personally wouldn't, because they do look a lot alike, but they're not exactly the same, so you could use it if you wanted to. The world won't explode.

Ghost Down · 12-27-2007, 08:38 AM

Hey Inyri,

Looking great, but when I try to install I get an error.
Any idea what might be causing it?

This is the error I am talking about; Error <-- Click me

Thanks in advance,

Ghost Down

I had that problem while I was beta testing, I did tell Inyri about it.

The file in question "Localization.mod" isn't actually in the "backup" folder, If I remember correctly it's in the "Override" folder, so go into that and copy and paste it into the folder it should be.

I'm sorry, I'm not real great at reading... whatever language that is. Sounds like the gist of it is "omg I can't make a backup of this file, CRY!" which isn't as bad as it sounds.

It should have installed the file, but failed to make a backup for it (if you desperately need one you should be able to pull it off of your install discs, although the modified localization.mod should have no ill effects on your game even should you uninstall the mod). If for some reason localization.mod *didn't* get installed, you'll know right away when Kay doesn't have any lip synching. Localization.mod can be manually installed if need be -- just put it in the lips folder (make a backup copy of the original localization.mod if you like, just for safe keeping).

And Zionosis, I totally don't remember you telling me that.

Ghost Down · 12-28-2007, 06:05 AM

@Zionosis & Inyri;

Thanks, I'll see if I can get it to work.. And Inyri, the language is Dutch

Wedge Suron · 12-28-2007, 08:22 AM

It's in english as well.

Marius Fett · 12-28-2007, 08:33 AM

Just started playing...

Awsome so far!

You have a sexy voice

lol

greggomonkey · 12-28-2007, 10:04 AM

good job looks like alot of work went into this ill get it right now

Miltiades · 12-28-2007, 12:38 PM

It replaces Juhani with a new partymember and has full voiced dialog? Downloading right now!

Hawkstrong16 · 12-28-2007, 01:17 PM

This looks awesome!
I'm downloading now so that as soon as I get my copy of Kotor working on this computer I can play!

This looks great InyriForge
I'm always looking for someone to get rid of the evil cat woman.

Jedi.Maverick · 12-28-2007, 02:25 PM

Not to be rude, just a curiosity, does it ruin the balance intended for the game?

Inyri · 12-28-2007, 02:43 PM

I don't think so. I didn't make her superwoman or anything like that.

Ghost Down · 12-29-2007, 04:09 AM

Hey, it's me again.

I tried what both of you said, but I just can't get the mod to install properly.
So would it instead be possible to upload a version without the installer if it is not to much work, Inyri?

Wedge Suron · 12-29-2007, 04:33 AM

Yeah just put the files in the Module, Overide and any other one needed

And how do I know which file(s) goes into which folder(s)?

{Snip} Please do not post off-topic in threads. -RH

Ghost. That was to inyri.

Inyri · 12-29-2007, 01:59 PM

Please don't give installation support. You can not simply manually install the mod, as is. Several people have made mention that the installer isn't working for them (for whatever reason -- no one seems willing to give me details so as a result there's nothing I can do). I will put together a manual install of it (which I will post up on my site's forums, so please look for it there and not here), but it will not have nearly the compatibility as the installer version will. You'll need to install it in a clean override and ad in your other mods from there. Of course that's what I would recommend even to those using the patcher...

In that case I'm sure you did. The fact that I don't remember you telling me doesn't necessarily mean anything. My mind's a slippery thing.

Brought over from the other closed thread...

No banthas will spawn, he won't say anything else, and naturally.... I'm stuck.

I've never seen this before from Komad (I have the fodder, etc.) until I downloaded Kay. Is this a bug from the mod?

Thanks.

Deleted the dialogue and zipped right on through. Much thanks.

Inyri · 12-30-2007, 01:34 PM

I would still appreciate that info I asked for -- I'd rather fix it than just tell people to delete the dialogue.

Jawaluv · 12-31-2007, 08:13 AM

Sorry, I hadn't stopped into the hunters club, and was doing a darkside approach to the game.

Also, after whacking Freyyar and going to see Chundaar, he's not wanting to give Zaalbar back. He takes the blade, gives me a reward, and lets me repeat my requests, but now bladeless.

Much thanks.

Ghost Down · 12-31-2007, 08:36 AM

Weird, I tried to install the mod again and now it just installs fine..

DarthSomething · 12-31-2007, 09:45 AM

I see the red robe, but what do her standard clothing/underwear textures look like?

In any case, very nicely done. Time to kill Juhani now.

Darth Payne · 12-31-2007, 11:21 AM

I've encountered something odd.

Kay's lightsaber seems to have replaced Master Quatras blue lightsaber.

The icon for the saber is the same, as is the icon for the saber crystal.

However, when i go to a workbench to upgrade said saber, the saber hilt and blede i see is that of Kays saber.

I haven't tried equipping the saber yet, just thought i should tell you baout this little oddity.

Edit: Just noticed that the Tatooine Starmap quest is still on the quest menu after i've collected the map coordinates as the datapad with the coordinates is in the quest item menu.

Is that some kind of mod?

I don't think that would have anything to do with anything I would have done, tbh.

Darth Payne · 12-31-2007, 02:45 PM

Master Quatras Lightsaber is from Wotor.

Inyri · 12-31-2007, 02:48 PM

Then they're probably not compatible. Don't include bug reports if you don't intend to include the necessary information.

In any case, Kay's lightsaber uses model number 238 and WotOR's Quatre's saber uses model number 207 -- they should not be incompatible unless you've changed something. Kay should be fully compatible with WotOR -- Shem and I made certain before it was uploaded.

BrollytheMighty · 01-04-2008, 01:33 AM

Inyri, I just have one quick question. I installed this mod, but my journal seems to have one blank entry that won't go away. I assume it has to do with this mod because every time a new journal entry was added after something happened while tackling this quest, the empty entry has the purple border around that signifies something new was added to it. I was also wondering if anything else happens in this quest after you talk with Lynara while Kay is in your party.

Inyri · 01-04-2008, 02:10 AM

No one else has reported any problems with the journal. Were you using a mod that already had a journal entry?

As for Lynara, if you received the rewards for the quest, it's done. There are still more journal entries, though, as the journal is not tied to the side-quest, but to Kay herself. And she still has more to talk about.

BrollytheMighty · 01-04-2008, 11:02 PM

well, know I wasn't, but the journal entry is just about kay and now that I have the items the quest is complete right? if that's true then I'm not really worried about it. It is just a minor annoyance.
