Conundrum: This was going to be the orange/gold default...   But trying to make that a double bladed would absolutely suck. So I'm trying to work out which of two other hilts I could use.. Either.... or...   this bottom one doesn't line up nicely for a double bladed but also I've already used it in KSR. So I'm trying to formulate another plan...  

It really just depends on if one mod alters the same file as another mod. That build is curated and overseen by modders who actively ensure that there are no conflicts. When it comes to trying to make mod builds, you should either rely on the neocities mod build, learn to make mods and build your own or expect it to break. The latter is what most people go for, expect it to break.   Constantly testing mixed with hoping it just works, is a bad approach and can lead to circumstances where the mod build might work for one playthrough but not for another, for example if a mod breaks the LS or DS path, but not both.

Really depends on the contents of the mods and how you mix and match them, as well as what order you install them in. You can also stick to mostly a handful of mod authors and not have many issues. It also helps if the vast majority of these mods are skin or textures. There's also bugfixes for some mods, which some may not even count as full mods. I may have also taken some notes from the guy who set up the uber-builds on neocities. I may have also been slowly working on and expanding this build in my free time for... several years. Between installer and manual, a good 75%-ish of the pack is skins, textures, or bugfixes not contained in the Community Patch (or for other mods). While I can't give you an exact number, the number of individual releases, mod/texture/bugfix/etc. is at least 232. At least 80 of which are exclusively Dark Hope's skins and textures. Believe me when I say that my KotOR 1 build, in nearly all of its stages, has almost never encountered any major difficulties until this, and I am fairly confident through testing that the conflict was specifically something caused by Lightsaber and Force Forms. Since removing it, I've experienced no issues. That said, I'm also using some of N-DRew25's more... experimental mods, like his loot immersion mod, NPC diversity, and the Duros/Mandalorian upgrades. That's pretty much all I have here that's relatively untested. Now if only I could get my freakin' TSL build to work. That one has been a nightmare.

As noted above, anything that screws with Bandon on the Endar Spire specifically will break the scene if they don't account for K1CP's changes. And this is ultimately your problem. If you use that many mods then you're likely to have a mountain of incompatibilities. Especially for anything that released more than 2 or 3 years ago.

I know this post is a while done already, but I just so happened to have come across this exact same bug. I have a similarly massive mod build on my end, and I have just gone through and almost individually gone through and tested somewhere around 100+ mods. I may have fixed that and another bug I was experiencing by mistake, but it appears that the source of the problem is Lightsaber and Force Forms. No clue what the specific conflict occurring is, but taking that one out fixed it.
