How common is it for the K1R TSLpatcher to be abruptly denied permission to create a temporary folder in its own directory while in the middle of installation? How common is it for it to be one of the Pazaak Tournament files that sets this off (for me it's always enter_paz.ncs)? And is there a more reliable way around this than "Run as admin until you get lucky"? Second, how common is it for the Black Vulkar Base to softlock in some way or other (usually involving a glitched terminal somewhere along the line)?

Good news: I got K1R to install without breaking the ability to load save files. I don't know if it was replacing my base swkotor.exe with the editable executable or luck, but it happened. Bad news: I ran into two commonly-reported bugs. One was a minor one (Rukil's amnesia), one is a real problem: The infamous bugged Vulkar Base Security Panel. There was also a minor journal entry bug I haven't seen in the other reports. 1) During the game, when did the problem begin to occur? Inside the first level of the Black Vulkar Base. 2) Did you install the latest version of the mod? (1.2) Yes 3) What version of the game do you have? (Steam, GOG, 4CD, KotOR Collection?) What region is the game designed for if it's the 4 CD version? Star Wars: The Best of PC (The version a lot of these lists seem to forget exists), but with the original swkotor.exe replaced by the editable one. 4) Did you update your game as required by your game's region? (4-CD version ONLY) N/A 5) Did you install this over the previous version(s), or did you perform a fresh installation as required by the K1R's read-me file? Fresh Installation 6) What other mods have you installed? Please give an accurate list and provide links to each of these mods - even if they are found on this site. (We don't actually know them all!.) https://deadlystream.com/files/file/392-k1-clone-wars-armors/ https://deadlystream.com/files/file/1314-crossguard-lightsabers/ 7) Can you be more specific about the error? At what point did it happen? In the order they were encountered: I. After discovering that I needed papers to reach the Undercity, the attendant "The Search For Bastila" journal update read as: "Taris: [Completely empty space below]". Side note, the Light-side ending for Largo's bounty quest is missing a line break after "Taris:" II. After recovering all the Promised Land journals I had to go through the whole spiel with Rukil before I turned them in. This happened both times I went through is. III. I entered the first level of the Black Vulkar Base after killing the rancor monster in the sewers and the guards at the elevator. After dispatching the Vulkar cook and one sentry droid, I attempted to use the Security Panel. And I got the "Node Error. Please contact a Designer" message blurb. 8). Have you tried re-downloading/re-installing the mod? Not yet. Since I end up fighting Windows every time I run the installer for it, I'm reluctant to. 9) Have you tried using a different save game? Not yet, although I have a save file prepared at the point just after killing the rancor. 10) Have you tried starting a new game? No. And if that's the only way to fix this, I'm just plain chucking K1R at this point. 11) What Operating System do you use? (List Virtual Machines as well if you are using them.) Windows 7 64-bit. 12) IF USING THE GOG OR 4CD VERSION: Can you confirm that you see the K1R Launcher when you launch the game? N/A  

What is your evidence for this? It is by no means said in KOTOR 2 that Malachor is the only place to make Jedi fall to the dark side, or even the first: It seems likely that Lehon had the same property: Malachor is perhaps the most important of these three locations in KOTOR 2, but that is in KOTOR 2, when it is the only one of the three that has not been discovered and attacked by the Republic.   If your alternative is that there is no choice and other people should not be allowed to make a choice that you disagree with, in a roleplaying game, then I cannot be convinced this alternative is inherently better.   Yes, because it was the source of the infinite fleet. The Trayus Academy was not. Later, the Sith lost the Star Forge, but still had the Trayus Academy.   No, this is not true: There is no definitive answer given in the game, and it is speculated that they had already begun to fall before discovering the Star Forge.   You said the game gave you no opportunity to counter Kreia's argument, and I showed you a quote in which Kreia literally says "you were right." I don't know what more you want. Do you want another example of Kreia saying you were right?   Yes, Canderous attributes the Republic's victory at Malachor to Revan's strategy. So does everyone in KOTOR 2. However, other people were there and did things that Revan personally did not do.   There is no indication of any connection between Exar Kun's Sith and Revan's Sith in the game beyond this one line. I think it's a relic from an earlier draft of the game in which Bastila was Vima Sunrider and the game followed up more closely on the events of the Great Sith War, but that is only speculation on my part. On that note, though, you are willing to accept connection between Exar Kun's Sith and Revan's Sith in order to explain this continuity error, but you are not willing to accept a connection between Revan's Sith and the Sith of KOTOR 2 who were explicitly written to be survivors of Revan's Sith?

That's not the save file at all. Android's save file is exactly the same as the PC(.sav format). I sync mine with OneDrive so I can download it and keep going on mobile. Editing with KSE works fine too.

Can't say for sure it's the same issue, but there's a bug involving frame rate that can stick your character in place. I believe the fix was to save -> turn on VSync in the graphics options -> load.
