After a fight if you are stuck make a quick save and then quick load your recently created save to be able to move again. This can become really boring if you get stuck after each enemy but it works 100% of the time at least.
Kotor Stuck After Combat
Hi guys. I have an issue where I am unable to move after combat. I have movement keys set to arrow keys and toggling v-sync on/off in game settings does nothing. I read online that toggling v-sync to on should fix it, yet it does nothing for me. Anyone know what I can do? Help greatly appreciated
Description: Attacking NPC's including Training Dummies result in character being stuck in combat. Unable to use emergency fleet pass, talk to other NPC's, log out, or otherwise. Can only exit game by pressing Alt+F4. Logging in with the same character results in the character still being stuck in combat. And since character is stuck in combat, you are unable to log in any other characters.
I had this trouble also. I found the best way out of it is to provoke something or someone to attack you and let them kill you. When the med droid revives you it will take you out of the combat mode you were stuck in.
[center][big][big]***Getting Started with KotOR----------------------------------------***[/big][/big][/center]If you're just wanting to get started speedrunning KotOR, this is the place to start! This guide covers the basics of KotOR speedruns, from how to actually get KotOR running and the appropriate settings, to how to use these guides to answer the questions you have.If there's something that isn't covered here or in a different guide, feel free to join the KotOR Speedrunning Discord by clicking on the "Discord" link in the sidebar. The community is pretty friendly and always willing to help![section=How These Guides are Organized]The guides for KotOR on speedrun.com are organized into sections, using prefixes on the guide titles. There are five categories:- **Route Guides:** These are one stop shops for guides to each category. There are currently guides for all main category/ruleset combinations that are updated as new techniques or changes are made to each route.- **Video Tutorials:** These videos guide the viewer through the route for their particular category. They are dated to reflect what version of the route they are describing and whether this corresponds to the route guides above.- **Techniques:** These guides cover techniques used in KotOR speedrunning. They aren't necessarily skips or tricks on their own, but used correctly they can help save time in speedruns. These are generally legal for the No Major Glitches (NMG) and Unrestricted rulesets.- **Major Glitches:** These guides cover the major glitches in KotOR, most of which are based on Menu Glitches. These are the glitches that break the game the most, and are also generally the hardest tricks in KotOR. These glitches are only legal in the Unrestricted ruleset.- **Miscellaneous:** These guides cover either niche speedruns such as bingo or IL runs, or have general information useful for speedruns.The different pages have links to the other relevant pages; so if you're just looking to jump into a category, you can start with the Route Guide for that category, and then follow the links to see the descriptions of individual tricks from that run.[section=Frequently Asked Questions]Q: Can I speedrun KotOR?A: Yes! Anyone can speedrun this game, as long as they enjoy it and are willing to learn a new way to play the game. Speedrunning KotOR is very different from any casual playthrough you've done; as one simple example, we mash through all dialogue as fast as possible.Q: Are there any glitches in KotOR speedrunning?A: Most definitely. Some glitches are very useful, while others must be avoided. KotOR speedrunning is split into two categories and three rulesets (plus the All Star Maps category which is Unrestricted only). Different rulesets allow different amounts of glitches; Unrestricted has no restrictions (duh), Glitchless does not allow any glitches, and No Major Glitches is a middle ground.Q: What category and ruleset should I learn first?A: The easiest category to start with would be Any% under either the Glitchless or No Major Glitches rulesets. Any% Glitchless is easy to pick up and provides good menuing practice, but doesn't introduce any of the tricks that are staples of KotOR speedrunning. Any% No Major Glitches is a good category for beginners, as it uses Save Buffers and other common glitches, but the harder/more complicated tricks such as Hotshots, DLZs and the Routine are banned. Any% is the preferred starting category versus All Quests because it's significantly more straightforward (and shorter).Q: What is this about In-Game Time?A: Because different computers have different hardware, load times for many PC games varies from system to system. In order to remove this complication, we remove load times from the timing for KotOR speedruns. This is achieved through a load-removal tool in Livesplit, thanks to glasnonck. For any runs except races, In-Game Time (IGT) is what matters.Q: How long is this speedrun?A: This depends on the category you choose to run. The approximate "good" times for the most common speedruns are:- Any% Unrestricted: 0:25 IGT, 0:30 RTA- Any% NMG: 1:20 IGT, 1:32 RTA- Any% Glitchless: 2:00 IGT, 2:05 RTA - All Quests Unrestricted: 1:45 IGT, 2:05 RTAThere are also Individual Level runs (such as Swoop Racing or Pazaak) which range from a handful of seconds to a few minutes.Q: What should I focus on to improve my time most quickly?A: I would give you three things (plus a bonus!) to focus on, in order of importance:**1. Learn the route.** As in any RPG run, knowing where to go is what saves the most time, as then you're not having to stop and figure things out mid run. As far as RPGs go, KotOR is pretty short; but it's still fairly complex.**2. Figure out the keyboard hotkeys.** KotOR lets you customize hotkeys, so get a setup that you like and then go with it. You should have comfortable hotkeys for all of the following, roughly in order of use:- Default Action- Map Page- Inventory Page- Character Page- Equipment Page- Cancel Combat- Solo Mode- Pausing the GameWhile you can do all this with the mouse, learning the hotkeys will improve your efficiency, especially in the next point. Many runners also recommend rebinding the movement keys to WASD (strafe controls) from WZSC (tank controls).**2.5: Similar to the above, learn to move efficiently.** Holding both mouse buttons will run you forward, and you can turn the mouse to turn your character. Or, hold the right mouse button to fix the camera and use WASD to run diagonally/forward/backward. Get a method of movement you like and practice it until you're comfortable.**3. Practice the menus.** Again, like most RPG runs KotOR has a fair amount of menuing. This is actually where most of the execution in this run happens. Learn the menus with all the relevant hotkeys and practice them if you really want to get good times.But most importantly of all:**4. Patience.** It takes time to learn a run like this, and the combat in KotOR is based on D&D's d20 system, so it's inherently luck-based. We do what we can to mitigate the RNG, but sometimes you get good rolls and sometimes you won't. Even apart from that, KotOR is a glitchy game (in both good and bad ways). Even though we try to break it in the right ways, it can and will throw odd behavior at you, softlock you for fun, and sometimes just plain crash. Just stick with it and you'll improve![section=Settings for Speedrunning KotOR]There are several settings you should set up ahead of time so you're not losing time to the game doing things you don't want.**Under Options---------------------***Gameplay:*- Set Difficulty to Easy; this reduces enemy damage by 50%, and just lets us be more daring in combat.- Autosave - ON; trust me, you'll want this when the game crashes on you.- Combat Movement - ON; we want to be able to run past as many combats as possible.- Key Mappings - As you prefer them*Feedback:*- Tutorial Popups - Off- Status Summary - Off- Floating Numbers - On; it helps sometimes to see how much damage you've dealt and if you've missed.- Hide Quick Menu Buttons - Off; we need these to do a trick called a Map CS Skip, for Hard Buffers, and for a few other tricks.*Autopause:*- All of these should be disabled; you never want the game to pause for you.*Graphics:*- Make sure the settings are low enough that your game can run smoothly. - V-sync should be Enabled unless you're doing a glitch that requires it to be off.- The game generally runs better with Frame Buffer Effects and Soft Shadows disabled. **Disabling Movies--------------------------**Outside the game, find the swconfig.exe file in your KotOR installation folder, and check Disable Movies; this disables all the prerendered cutscenes inside the game, including the intro ones.**Running in Windowed Mode----------------------------------------**Depending on your setup, you may wish to run KotOR in Windowed Mode. In order to do this, you'll need to open the swkotor.ini file in the game's installation folder using a standard text editor (I use Notepad). Do the following:1. Change the line "FullScreen=1" to "FullScreen=0"2. Add the line "AllowWindowedMode=1"In both cases, omit the quotes and be sure to capitalize correctly. This should cause the game to open in a window the next time you run it. Sometimes you may need to press "ALT+Enter" to force the game to switch views after this setting is in place.[section=Other Common KotOR Issues]**Stuck After Combat-----------------------------------**- Double check that V-Sync is enabled. - If your monitor's refresh is greater than 60hz, KotOR will not like this. There are two solutions: You may underclock your monitor to a refresh rate of 60hz, or you could use external graphics settings to limit the frame rate of KotOR to 60fps. The frame limiting option is less desirable if you plan on doing glitched categories. This is because some glitches require (or are significantly easier with) a higher frame rate (i.e. [DLZ](f0aia)).**Running on Windows 10-----------------------------------**If you're having trouble getting KotOR to run on Windows 10, you can try using [this guide](z6muo). 2ff7e9595c
