Dan Loto's Knights of the Old Republic I Trilogy

As the title of the topic suggests, I am also making a trilogy off of the first KotOR like Kaydon Sentry but it will be a lot different. I’m using the PC version for easier recording and to be able to use cheats and mods to help the movie. I have also decided (finally) that the planet order for the trilogy will be…

Planet Order as far as I know.

Episode I - Bond of the Jedi

Taris
Yavin Station-Depends on how I'm doing on time.
Dantooine
Tatooine

Episode II – Echo of the Past-Not changing

Kashyyyk
Yavin Station-Depends on how I'm doing on time.
Manaan
Leviathan
Korriban-Not very much of it if I use it.

Episode III- Retribution of the Force

Korriban-Tatooine
Sleheyron*
Lehon
That-one-place
_________________________

At the moment, I am in the planning stage and don’t have very much recorded. I’m mostly working on scripts and mods of my own. My scripts are at about 90% done. It's a little hard to plan on the cut content though.

I have a voice actor for the main character (which I decided to name Fel Skirata for their interesting links). I'm going to put up a few samples...sometime. I had discovered how to make the main characters mouth moved when he talks but I’ve recently discovered how to do lip-syncing to make it look more normal. It will at least be on par with the other characters.

Current Videos

Right now I've only recorded the Endar Spire scene. In it you can see some basic use of camera angles and the main character’s mouth movement. What you won’t see is the game’s HUD which I have made every effort to remove using a variety of methods.

I also have one of Malak's themes and a theme that was meant for Calo Nord on Taris but now I'm not so sure about that. :P

In the Endar Spire video I’ve removed the “sparks” the fly when someone gets hit/shot/cut and the “glitter” that appears when you use a force power.

I've also finally learned how to edit maps...to a point. I wouldn't have been able to figure this stuff out without the help of all of the people at Lucas Forums. Expect some more interesting battles!

Some history

Well, it was Kaydon Sentry's early video at Theforce.net which first got me interested but when he left for a year~I thought he was gone for good :( but since I already started planning it I just decided to continue. If he wouldn't have left for a year I probably wouldn't be doing this.

*I had permission from Sith Revan in Team Jawa to use the things that they restore but they seem to be dead. Fortunately, Team Hutt formed to restore only Sleheyron. If I can get their permission, then I will use it.

That's great Dan Loto, you probably know this but I support you all the way to the end :D

It looks great Dan Loto! I thought it would be impossible to make a movie out of the PC-Version because of the not available Free Roam Camera Cheat. But the Camera angles look nice all the way! I guess you edited the cameraview.2da, right?!

If you are able to make a free roam camera mod for the Pc version let me know, I'd like one to make some nice pics for posters...

;)

How long do you plan to have your movie installments?

Will you be voicing Revan?

Have you any music selections picked out? (I can provide a vast variety of music.)

I've offered to both Kaydon and tpiom a large variety of "dying sounds" that I've pulled from other games so you don't hear the same death sounds over and over again. Would you like these too? (PM if you want them)

Will you be using Juhani in your version?
Keep up-to-date on the latest updates to the upcoming TSLRCM 1.8 in this thread!

Wow...you've been in the planning stage for a long, long time. But it looks like it's going to pay off in the end. It's great to see how many problems you've been able to work out on your own (lip syncing, sparks, glitter effect, HUD, etc.) and I can't wait to view your film when it is done.

The cameraview.2da is a very useful file :D

I think that they were talking about that over at LucasForums but I don't know if it even turned out to be legal...

Right now, I can't really tell but as long as it's between 2 and 2 and one half hours it will be okay.

I'm not worried about her yet.

I have a theme for Darth Malak and Calo Nord picked out, the music from both of the KotOR games, and most of the music from the movies, but I will gladly take whatever you have.

I have all of the sounds from Empire at War and Forces of Corruption (they arn't sorted though.) Tpiom taught me how to get the sounds out of KotOR, but I will happily take them.

I'm probably going to use the idea that Kaydon scrapped. If you know what I mean.

The funny thing is, when I first discovered how to make the main characters mouth move...it was an accident.

Well, everybody wants to get into the act.

Sounds pretty good, Dan.

By the way, what are some of the mods you'll be using for your version of the trilogy?

I'm not really sure yet besides whatever Team Jawa can come up with. I'm mostly making my own depending on what I need. (Anchorhead being occupied by the Sith for example)

I would prefer friendship than rivaly. He DID inspire me. (By making his own movie and by going away for a year...)

I'm using him at the moment because I can imagine most of the possible VA's sounding like him.

Edit:
I've added possible titles that I thought up (I had a really good one for episode 1 but then I fell asleep and now I don't remember it) to the main post. Please give feedback on them as well!

If you ever change your mind about the face you'll use, I can provide an excellent voice for mullet-man. :lol: Just need to find my microphone... :D

Anyway, just heard the 2 themes...they sound cool and I must say that the theme for Malak fits him pretty well and that it kinda reminds me of Dracula, for some reason. :o Calo's theme reminds of the mafia and I guess it fits him, considering he's a bounty hunter and all. btw I think your title for Eppy II fits it very well, considering that's when the grand revelation will take place.

I do think that Malak's Theme is a little more fitting than Calo's.

Darth Malak's theme does remind me of Dracula, must be the organ.

How did you come up with those themes anyway?

Check out Jedisheml on YouTube. He/she's made a lot of mods for both kotor games, sound and all.

I've seen some of his work and he seems to be very talented but I don't know what I would use yet.
