what about mounts what controls do you use for your mounts that can fire weapons
@@dragonsithy6517 I believe that is Ctrl + Z
@@SWCentral thanks
I have a question, I designed an interface that I really like, however every time I re-log back into the game it’s says “unable to load interface” and I have no go into the options and load the want I want. It’s somthing I’m willing to do since I only have to do it once I’ve started up the game but having to do it every time is a little annoying.
As a newish returning player (played to 60 almost 6 or 7 years ago then quit) this is a good list of tips!
hope you are enjoying yourself. I love this game. I'm back from a 3 year break
Im back after quitting in 2014 D:
Great tips. I learned stuff that I did not know before. One thing I wanted to point out. You never went into Conquest Points. If you buy all the expansion on a stronghold, it gives you a 25% boost for each fully expanded stronghold you own (maxes out at 150%). Conquest points give you regards for 100k every week and if you are in a guild, it goes towards their conquest goal which gives you more free stuff. And also, the daily login rewards are also nice.
Awesome addition! :)
For those who want a better button for the walking feature more handy. I tend to switch the button for walking with Z and then The Walking tab for what Z used to do. It’s right next to the WASD keys and readily accessible. But that’s just my fix. You can make your walk key to any button you choose with keybindings .
A lot of these tips I already knew them and the ones I didn't is because of my gameplay style. Useful if you don't want to read the tutorials and patch notes.
105 tips: did you know if you have a previous toon/ character you have on with a current keybind you can go to the hotbar and click the tiny plus symbol icon. That will pop up all your toon names with the previous setting for your ui and keybind.
Like if I made my new toon green baldy and I want to use dar’krank trooper keybind setting I can select dar’krank and use his keybind on green bald as a ui setting.
After a 11 years break, this list is a blessing. Thx for the effort dude!
Been playing for years and thought I knew everything but the MAX Camdistance OMG I love you.
00:58 "so you may as well leave it there until you're ready to take it out"....THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!
You son of a bitch you did it!
This video was helpful for me, as I am sure it will be for experienced and new players alike. Thanks for putting this together!
No problem glad you liked it!
@@SWCentral Hey I was trying to change my loading screen and it didn't work - could it be because I am using the SWTOR launcher and not Steam? I tried several times following every step you mentioned, nothing worked. Please let me know if there is something else I can try, thank you.
@@Zentatasulop It shouldn't matter which launcher you use :) Did you find the LoadingScreens folder in your install directory? Right click game shortcut, open file location, in swtor folder > retailclient > LoadingScreens. Make sure you delete the old picture, then copy the new picture over and be sure you named it *LoadingScreen* exactly like that.
@@SWCentral Thanks for your kind reply. Yes I did do exactly that. Did you make your alteration while the game was active? I tried without activating the game. Launched would keep switching it back to the current expansion's loading screen. Please let me know, thanks.
@@Zentatasulop After a quick test, it can done with the game open or closed on my PC. Okay, the next to thing to check is the file type of your new image. Right click your new image, go to properties, tell me if the filetype is *.jpeg* or if it's something else.
Always giving the best SWTOR Content. You guys are the best SWTOR channel (along with Vulkk) and you're not even part of its content creator program (not that you need them) 🤭
Thanks fam
@@SWCentral the devs are garbage
Excellent tips, btw. I've been playing since 2017, and there were a few things you mentioned that I wasn't even aware of - guess it's true, then, you DO learn something new everyday. :-)
Glad it could teach you something new :D
Thanks for the tips. I'm currently considering playing SWTOR and I'm sure this video will get played more than once. Thx
Thanks for this info. I really appreciate it. Just got a limited run physical for my switch. I only played this on the Xbox a long time ago when I was a kid. So I don't know what to expect the beginning of the game. I know with you're help I'll be a little bit more prepared.
the line on the bars and loading screen was driving me crazy, after i tuned down the anti aliasing as you said now its gone, thanks!
Glad I could help!
The one i loved the most is when you showed us that we can change the camera zoom. Causa i really hated that standard camara zoom
As a returning player who only got to level 10, I'm glad I found this.
Bud that’s not even considered you hit ten in like 2 hours lol
probably not super important but there's a built in fps counter you can toggle with ctrl+shift+f
Awesome Tips :) even some I didnt know. Thank you
Super cool vid! Though my opinion on levelling the fastest would be to do flashpoints. Especially if you unlock legacy flashpoint experience boost and use an experience boost
I only started playing this game on 6-20-2024. This info is good but I still have SO MANY QUESTIONS!!
Feel free to ask :)
What was that on number 94 about making your graphics look better? I didn't quite catch it's name. Thanks a ton! 😃
The program is called ReShade :)
@@SWCentral Your awesome Thanks a Ton!!!
Well here we are, after 11 years break i decided to come back, because i loved and still love the game😂
These tips are insanely helpful lol thanks so much :)
More than welcome my friend :)
I'm completely new, my friend wants to play with me so I'll start tomorrow, the tips are very helpful :D
Glad they could help! :D
How is it going? Have you struggled a lot with the controls? 😊
@@joakim482 I did a little, I haven't played too many games that are comparable.
But I really like the game so far, I've gotten to the point where you get the ship and get send to the next planet. I've been on a trip tho so we couldn't play a lot.
I'm also planning on making a second character so I can play alone if my friend doesn't have time ^^
@@lenderlender2290 Nice, good luck man! 😁 I managed to convince a colleague to play with me, we both choose Smuggler, and we're still on the first planet. But I've also been playing for years so I have several around lvl 70
@@joakim482 thank you :D
15:00 It doesn't work on my pc, I did all you said but the game launcher starts to download an " original " loading screen anyway and overwrites my custom picture.
Thank you dear sir!
Very helpful friend. ty
that credit cap limit one is false free to play and preferred both have a 1mil cap
This is true. Both F2P and Preferred status will have a credit cap of *1 million credits.* However, you will still bump other stuff up such as quickbars and other minor unlocks.
Can’t you also put in legacy bank
@@mlbActyes
6:43 how does your human have actually orange eyes? i only could pick between greenish yellow and soft red ._.
Might be a cosmetic unlock I bought from the market or perhaps just dark side corruption
Thank you
I just started last night and the game is a little intimidating to an mmo casual like myself
Glad this could help :)
Getting into any well-esablished game can feel overwhelming. Start small, be patient, and it will yield you hundreds of hours of enjoyment. Happy gaming!
@@JaredPlotts Much appreciated.
The reshade tip of corse I knew it I mod much of my games, since STAR WARS BATTLEFRONT II (the real one) (still am), I couldn't call myself a pc gamer if I didn't. Anyway good video, another easy test to me.
Thank you :)
I did not Know before, But I damn sure know now.
Alt + Z is mount flourish
Alt + U is drop UI.
How about Alt + F4? LOL....
Ctrl + E is mind cause I changed it years ago kek. Alt + Z should be the *new* default for anyone playing. I'll triple check later tonight :)
ctrl z is flourish and alt z is hide UI now
@@CAKEMANOFDOOM2 Yup, just been on to check again. The video is *correct* hide interface is Alt + Z and mount flourish is Ctrl + Z.
Woo the amd one helped, thanks!
Very useful stuff love you and thx u
Great vid buddy
How do i get Clear quickbars like during the release time from SWTOR i just miss the old Design 2 much
Fastest Way to level is GSF. Until you can skip to Fallen Empire Chapter 1 at level 60
Great video thank you, i have 1 question, how do you get your character/gear screen smaller, i cant seem to find the setting for it?
Interface editor > Global scale meter :) - That's the only meter that will change the size of the Inventory / character screen.
Great guide, but I didnt understand tip 99. Can you explain?
Also, what is "legacy" in the game?
Thank you.
Rocket boots in stealth?! 😃Any idea how much noise a rocket makes.
Question. The directx files download, what os should you have? Or does it work with all of them?
Thanks and good video.
Additional tip, flags are 200 credits from the vendors near the strongholds section. Don't get scammed as scammers sell them for 100,000+
Honestly I only use windows so can only vouch for that one! Also thanks fam :3
@@SWCentral Does it matter which windows? Like 7, 8.1, 10,11.
@@The-Blue-Knight I don't think anything past windows 7 would give you this automatically. That being said, I can't imagine anyone trying to install windows 7 these days and looking through windows update. Best to just download the file and check. When installing, it will tell you if you already have it or not. You can trust the link I provided, it is the official microsoft website :)
@@SWCentral Ah ok thanks m8 :)
@@The-Blue-Knight No sweat!
You got me with tip 100 :)
Do f2p have the free character rename? I can't find it
Unsure on this one, it's likely sub only.
Nice video just subscribed to your YT channel 👍😎
What set are you using for transmog at 4 mins into the vid? :o
14:36 i dont see "max camera distance" in my settings..
You can write it in :)
@@SWCentral ok so i write it in myself, exactly the way it is shown in the video?
@@MS-zd9nl Yep! Should work no issues!
Had the same issue. You just need to input the code yourself. Exactly as written and it will work.
@@SWCentral it worked tyvm
What's best tank, healer for ops and pve content I'm just starting the game so want to make a main
Somehow i do okish on pyrotech but I cant figure out annihilation marauder at all... Any tips on it or is it really that hard to pull a decent dps on it. I have a bit laggy computer and, i am not very good at high apm anyway. I somehow feel I need more buttons on mara that are not situational like explosive fuel or thermal yield.
It's a fun spec to play, probably the hardest out of the 3 to master. However that's just because you need to apply / spread dots. As long as you don't waste your dots and spread them with maximum area, you'll be just fine. Any spec is viable in this game unless you're doing timed runs don't worry about that kind of thing.
For the first time ever, I have a great PC setup, a job that gives me disposable income, and a stable high-speed internet connection.
I want to get back into this, but am afraid it's almost dead... so it's still up and hopping?
for some reason there is no character rename option for me on the website, can anyone help?
Are you a sub?
@@SWCentral no, yeah thats why, i was a sub but now im a preferred player
thx u sir !
Just starting playing 2 days ago already level 12 😎. My question fam is if I buy armor at the cartel market. Can I use that for all my characters? Think about buying a armor and subscription
You can use it on all your characters if you pay to unlock it account wide, which you can do in the collections window :)
I downloaded the game from SWTOR website, and don't have the GUI folder, do I make one or is it hidden away somewhere else?
Nvm, had to unhide my appdata folder and it was in there
Thanks for posting this. I just started playing with my spouse around 11 years ago.
Thanks
Can you show how to get a double bladed light saber
You have to have a jedi shadow or sith assassin unlocked. Then you will be able to equip double blade. If you're another spec with a one handed you can select to learn a second spec through your missions tab.
i might have missed it, but is there a way to auto attack or auto use abilities?
Try right clicking on an enemy and see what it does :p it's cool! That's the closest to an auto attack we have
@@SWCentral thank you I’ll try it out
Double clicking any ability will auto cast it. I double click my aoe abilities
I messed up my legacy name not knowing what it was. is there a way to change it?
Yes, cartel market
What’s the outfit you’re wearing ?
When I choose the second class, can I also recruit the story companions of that class?
No :)
@@SWCentralThanks
whats the armour you have there
_SW:tOR_ & Berens MBTI List.
*Bounty Hunter* and *Trooper:* xSxJ (at worst, uncaring, greedy, and ruthless; at best, law-abiding, honorable, and empathetic).
*Sith Warrior* and *Jedi Knight:* xSxP (at worst, arrogant, sadistic, and holier-than-thou; at best, patriotic, loyal, and flexible).
*Imperial Agent* and *Smuggler:* xNxP (at worst, gluttonous, exploiting, and trigger-happy; at best, compromising, temperate, and inventive).
*Sith Inquisitor* and *Jedi Consular:* xNxJ (at worst, manipulative, unfettered, and insane; at best, diplomatic, thoughtful, and wise).
For the Empire, the Light Side choices emphasize the Empire over the Sith. For the Republic, they emphasize the Jedi over the Republic. In MBTI terms, this translates to the Imperials valuing the group like soldiers (NF and ST) and the Republic classes (SF & NT). Coincidentally, or perhaps meaningfully, the Republic Tech and Sith stories are Aligning types (Fe-Ti) while the Imperial Tech and Jedi stories are Ordering types (Te-Fi).
In order of recommended gameplay.
Bounty Hunter: xSTJ.
Republic Trooper: xSFJ.
Smuggler: xNTP.
Jedi Knight: xSFP.
Sith Warrior: xSTP.
Sith Inquisitor: xNFJ.
Imperial Agent: xNFP.
Jedi Consular: xNTJ.
I had to do a flashpoint (first Malgus encounter) last night and it was such a cluster f*ck. Random bots yeeting me to my death, combat droid disappearing after the first death and a companion that can barely heal. It was so painful I almost want to stop playing SWTOR. It’s so infuriating. And when I finished there was no portal out or anything like wtf is this game. I go back to the general after an hour of pain and they’re like “good job, get some rest until we call you again” when I just did the entire thing by myself. I’ve come to dislike Sateele because she’s condescending but doesn’t do jack sh!t to help. Oh and I forgot to mention how the boss has a knock back every 10 seconds or constant stuns from the trash mobs. Who made this and thought it was fun?!
Yup the new FP is very buggy. Fixes are due to be deployed for the 22nd March but we'll see if that happens or not.
What armor set is that?
I want to return so bad but I’m stuck on an m1 Mac mini and no matter the tricks I’ve tried (cross-over, basic wine, PoM) it will not work! :(
what OS do you have? I remember I could not install swtor after an upgrade.
@@nakseyyy I’m now back on windows 11. I finally said fk it and sold the Mac and bought a laptop 😂
I’m Lord Victus on Star Forge, Empire!
Is there a way to get credits back after we cancel our subscription? I lost like 90mil credits because I forgot to move them to the bank.
There is a way, but it costs Cartel coins to do it, so it's easier and cheaper to just sub again... Sorry man
@@SWCentral if I re-subscribe will they be back? What is the process through Cartel Coins?
@@wesseagroves8567 When your sub runs out, all your credits (except one million) are put into what we call *escrow.* You can access the escrow that holds your excess credits by paying cartel coins, however, the cost of those items are stupid and NO ONE should pay it. Trust me... If you have lots of spare money then have at it, but otherwise please don't.
Subbing again is your cheapest and best option. The moment you sub again, all your credits go back to the same place you had them at the start. So if you had 100 million, you'll have that back after logging in again. Try to either store your credits in the legacy bank, or you can hold them in your mailbox and claim when you need it :)
@@SWCentral Thank you so much for all the feedback. I looked it up and there is no way I would waste those Cartel Coins. One last question, is there a way to view the escrow amount?
@@wesseagroves8567 There sure is! When you open your inventory, look at the top right of that window, click on the "currency" tab. In there you will find a full list of ALL the currencies you aquire in the game, including your Escrow and how much is in there :) - You are more than welcome!
Can you tell me your reshade settings?
I do not use it personally :) I prefer to change my colour scheme via Radeon settings.
@@SWCentral Thanks for quick answer, maybe i try with Nvidia Overlay
Thx !!!
an other tip speak to every trader train and crew skill trainer for xp and coex unlocks helps your legacy lvl
In just watching to see how many of these i know.
What helmet are you using?
Revanite pursuer :)
@@SWCentral ty
May I know what outfit ur wearing?
From which aprt of the video?
The very fact that a new player could need 100 tips to start this game makes me want to start another game.
You don't need this video :) but it would certainly help you understand 100+ more things in about 30minutes. Just to help the people who don't have the patience / time to explore this stuff. This is an "MMO" though, so it does come with "complex" systems. I wouldn't say it's difficult though.
You are depriving yourself of thousands of great games with that lazy attitude.
Have fun playing Pong.
How come the ui looks so different from mine?
This video was made before some of the UI updates, so some things may look not so similair however it shouldn't stop you from understanding any of the tips / tricks :D Any questions, lemme know!
I really like your UI. PS: I’m trying to recover my character that I played when the game launched and I can’t. I need to call EA and they don’t have phone representatives anymore. 😑 Even in game mail help (I created a new character) told me to call. How can I call when you don’t accept calls anymore?! Ugh.
This is the US number: 1-(855)-345-2186
You can call that number on Skype for free (Last time I checked)
What robes are you wearing in the begging of video
Force Herald!
Any pvp players on Dark Malgus want to add me for pvp? Drop your name in the comments
i cant seem to find the options to increase my camera distance.
P.S I followed the instructions
If the line of text isn't there in the notepad, you can write it in yourself :)
I awlays ask myself: Why isn´t that on by default? Like movable windows, extended tooltips, information on your health bar etc. xD
Legit...
tip 94 use what where? didnt get it
Reshade :) It's a 3rd party app that can customise colours / some graphics. Give it a google it's super easy to do!
@@SWCentral ahhhh ok, thanks ill have a look! :)
I wish black on black dye was cheaper
Mine does not have Controls_CameraMaxDistance
Just add it in :)
Thanks @@SWCentral
'deid jew nough'... hehe
Please tell me what outfit this is guys, it looks sleek AF
Force herald top :) Revanite pursuer helmet, the rest is Horizon Guard pieces!

LIKE GO TO A YELLOW BANK AFTER 1ST FP IS OVER OH NEVER MIND E A DELETED THAT / GOOD L UCK GETTING A HOME THAT NO FACTION LIMITS
Nice guide. Just a quick reminder. The game engine is bad. And I mean really bad. The game has stutters on many places, like Taris, no matter what hardware you are playing at. It stuttered on my old i5 2600 and GTX 760 as well as on every PC after that up to my current Ryzen 5 5600 and RTX 3070. There is nothing you can do about it.
Personally, I use a Ryzen 5800x & RX 6800xt. Can confirm stutters still happen even on that hardware. Indeed it is not escapeable.
You can do some minor things like lock minimum clock speed which does help keep your FPS from dropping as hard in large areas (Like Alderaan).
M.2 or SSD will 1000% improve conversation load times and instance load times! - There also some awesome files you can grab from GitHub which do a great job at stablising FPS in warzones. I've been using them for a few months now and I can't knock it.
I was about to play .. then saw that I have to literally develop the game myself.. no thanks
How do you mean? :p if I can help I will!
It looks like a lot but it's really not.
Develop? No lol you just setup once on a character then use the UI and settings on the others. People really just be lazy smh
shit
discord link?
It's in the description :)
