[KotOR] Dialogue Fixes
By Salk
In an attempt to salvage some material from the now defunct SW:KotOR Upgrade project, I have decided to share this modification with the community.
This file is meant to replace the original dialog.tlk that comes with the original game. It is meant to be used exclusively with the English version of the game.
It is technically compatible with every other modification that alter this same file by patching it, provided this is installed first.
Two versions are offered: one that includes only corrections and a revised one that includes most of the changes found in the PC Response Moderation modification by Kainzorus Prime.
Enjoy!

[KotOR] Swoop Bike Upgrades
By Salk
This modification comes from a (very reasonable) request made by Snigaroo, lamenting the fact that in the original game it's not possible to improve the performance of the game's swoop bike despite evidence that upgrades should be available. I introduced two of them and made them available in two different stores. They can be purchased to help those who struggle to make good times on Tatooine's and Manaan's race circuits. They don't come cheap, but they are certainly a great asset for any aspiring swoop racing champion.

Unique Sith Governor
By N-DReW25
A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic
Author: N-DReW25
1.0.0 Release Date: 14.05.2023
Installation:
Simply click on the TSLPatcher.exe, click install and sit back and watch the TSLPatcher do its magic.
Description:
The Sith Governor is an NPC you encounter towards the end of Taris, in the vanilla game he uses the 'Dark Jedi Apprentice' appearance which is seen throughout the game as a generic enemy. The appearance of the Dark Jedi Apprentice NPCs is very similar to the appearance of Darth Bandon, an NPC you find later on in the game.
Whilst the game doesn't explicitly say this, we can assume that the Sith Governor NPC is a non-Tarisian foreigner who was appointed to his position by his superior Dark Jedi. The Governor mentions he doesn't yet own a Lightsaber, suggesting he's only an Apprentice. Dialogue with various NPCs across Taris suggests that the Sith Governor is the absolute dictator of the Sith occupation on Taris as he most likely signs up any law the Tarisians have to abide by and has the absolute authority to do whatever action he wants to govern his planet.
For an NPC with such authority on Taris, why would he look like every other Dark Jedi Apprentice you see in the game? And since the Dark Jed Apprentice looks like Darth Bandon, it lessens the 'impact' both NPCs have on the player. You see the Sith Governor... he isn't unique, he looks like Darth Bandon! You see Darth Bandon... he isn't anything special, he looks like that weak Sith Governor.
This mod was requested by the user "Sniggles", the one who maintains the Kotor Mod Builds on Reddit, to fix that problem. With this mod installed, the Sith Governor shall wear a unique Sith Governor's uniform based on the vanilla Sith Officer uniform and shall have a unique head model capable of displaying the mask item he wears making his appearance totally unique from Darth Bandon.
This mod was originally going to be included as part of a bigger Sith Officer uniform mod, though with the prospect of Sniggles adding it to the Kotor Mod Builds and the fact some players might prefer this small mod over a big Sith Officer mod, I have since decided to release this feature separately.
Known Bugs:
This mod shouldn't have bugs but if there is Just PM me on Deadlystream.
If the player and/or party is wearing a mask item, it is possible that the Sith Governor's mask item might be rendered invisible. This is a bug in the Game's engine and cannot be fixed.
Incompatibilities:
Please report any incompatibilities!
If you have "Invisible Headgear" installed the Sith Governor's mask shall also be invisible.
Permissions:
Do NOT claim credit for this mod and do not use assets from this mod without my permission.
As per Heyorange's readme, assets from the Sith Uniform mod are free to use as long as Heyorange is properly credited.
Thanks to:
Heyorange: For creating the Sith Uniform Reformation mod, for which the Sith Governor's uniform is based on!
Sniggles: For requesting the mod!
Bioware: For such an amazing game!
Obsidian: For giving Colonel Tobin a Dark Side transition, this skin was used as a basis for the Sith Governor's Dark Side transition!
Fred Tetra: For Kotor Tool!

Merged Visor Models - Modder's ressource
This mod is a modder's ressource, it does not introduce any item into the game, there is not item sheet related to the models, there is no custom skin for the models.
Description and content
This mod packs 71 mask model variants, merging the vanilla visors from the game as best as possible. Every models bear the vanilla textures and should not conflict with any items in game.
There is no icons provided. Every models are referenced in a specific folder and inside the folder is a .Jpg that you can open to display the model.
I packed every vanilla textures for the masks as an additional folder.
How to use this
Here is my video tutorial about modeling, very basic but it might help you out : Basic model merging and editing tutorial
- You can make them a brand new items in game, modifying the model variation and adding a custom icon.
- You can make customized skins with the provided textures, by modifying the texture names related to the models using Blender or other softwares.
- You can use them, either to make them placeables, or add them to npc models using Blender or other softwares.
- Anything that comes to your mind if you have the abilities !
Feel free to use anything from this mod, this is extracted from the base game and this is my own edits. Just credit me somewhere.
Disclaimers
- I tried to make sure every geometry pieces from every masks had unique names, so they shouldnt conflict with anything and between each other at 95%. However,
this is a lot of visors and i might have forgotten some, so it might be useful to double check before using one with Blender.
- My modeling abilities are limited, so be forgiving about the models i pulled out. I tried my best so they look as fine as possible in game,
but there might be some clipping or other visual artifacts i may have missed.
- I do not know how animations and animation roots work, so there might be something wrong here even though everything display fine in game still.

Bioware for their work and base game models.

Thematic The One
By Snigaroo
Thematic The One
Premise
The One: warlord; conqueror; latent Force-Sensitive. A charismatic leader of the Rakata and a near-supernatural anomaly among their people. As an added bonus, he also dies in about two combat rounds!
In fairness, with a good character build there’s very little that doesn’t go down in two rounds or less in the lategame. But The One in particular irks me—he’s presented as special, a natural leader in Revan’s own mold, a warrior-prince leading both armies and the political structure of his people. Yet despite having all the resources of the hundreds of islands he has conquered and dozens of crashed vessels he has looted, indeed despite having a Sith Tremor Sword in a bin literally RIGHT BEHIND HIM, he uses two regular vibroblades; despite being so charismatic he convinced his own former chieftain to willingly sacrifice himself and allow his tribe to cannibalize him while being so brick-headed he’s sat on a single island for half a decade, his WIS is 18 while his CHA is only 12; and despite being latently Force-Sensitive, his Will saves are abysmal. This was a ripe field for a Thematic project.
Like my similar mod for KOTOR 2, Thematic The One’s goal is not to make the fight against The One actually challenging—this is not a difficulty mod. The fight will be slightly harder than in vanilla, yes, but for some builds this change will not even be noticeable; indeed, I took him out in two combat rounds just like normal. Instead, the goal is to present The One as the game insists he is: a charismatic warrior with vast resources and the—albeit unconscious—power of the Force behind him.
Changes
The One’s WIS and CHA stats have been nearly inverted, from 18/12 to 14/18; he has been given a Sith Tremor Sword in his main hand and an Echani Vibroblade in his off-hand (neither droppable); his Will saves have been bumped up to 15, to make him about as difficult as an average Dark Jedi to land Force abilities against; his alignment has been moved from Neutral to moderately DS, so that the Solari crystal will work against him; and, most significantly, he has been scripted to use Force Valor at the start of the fight with him. I felt this was important to represent exactly how close The One is to true Force Sensitivity, and how it’s clear that the Force has been supporting his meteoric rise from the start.
Compatibility
As is the objective with all Thematic-series mods, this mod should be compatible with every other mod out there. Even mods that edit The One should be compatible, as long as they edit his data in the module rather than with a direct .utc file drop to the override; at worst, such a mod would only replace some of my changes with its own.
Permissions & Thanks
As with any mod “I” have made or will make in the future, this mod has completely open permissions: modify it, redistribute it, reupload it, do whatever. So long as you give me credit for the idea and for the balance settings if you choose to retain most of mine, go for it. You don’t even need to ask me.
Particular thanks to JCarter426, who made this entire mod at my request but then told me it would be funnier if I uploaded it like it was my own. Ok.

Jedi From The Start
By darthbdaman
Revises the opening of the game, so that the player may begin as a Jedi Apprentice, in a seamless, lore-friendly manner. Removes all fourth wall breaking tutorial messages from the game.
Description
Upon starting the game, instead of Trask waking the player, you will be presented with new dialogue options to potentially select a Jedi Class.
You may choose to remain as your base class, and become a Jedi on Dantooine as normal, if you wish.
If you choose to become a Jedi, you will immediately level up, and be able to acquire your new feats and powers.
Starting equipment has been adjusted, and will be generated after this level up, allowing your new feats and skills to be accounted for.
Jedi characters are given a crystal in their footlocker, and can build a Lightsaber at the workbench. They choose its style and color there.
You then proceed through the Endar Spire sequence as normal, albeit without Trask. Out of character tutorial messages have all been removed.
Jedi characters will have a new Lightsaber duel, and recieve additional items.
Early dialogues with party members and NPC's have been adjusted to accurately reflect whether the player is a Jedi or not.
Additional Force Persuade checks have been added to many of the characters found throughout Taris.
A new path to purchase T3-M4 before completing the Swoop Race, through a Force Persuade check, has been added. This is available to non-Jedi through Persuade as well.
Upon arriving on Dantooine, the opening dialogue with the council is altered slightly.
The inital training sections, from the Jedi Code to Lightsaber construction is removed, and the player is immediately tasked to Cleanse the Tainted Grove.
After this point the game proceeds as normal, without major alterations.
If the player chooses not to become a Jedi at the start of the game, then very little changes, besides the removal of Trask and tutorial messages.
On Dantooine, a non-Jedi player will be able to construct a Double-bladed or Short Lightsaber, and choose the color of their lightsaber freely.
They will also be given an Apprentice robe after constructing a Lightsaber.
Install/Uninstall
Run the installer.exe file. If you are on Linux or Mac, appropriate HoloPatcher installers can be found on DeadlyStream.
If updating from a version from before v4.0.0, you must reinstall your game to properly uninstall the mod. You cannot install this mod on top of an old version.
You must start a new game after updating to this version. The mod has been substantially reworked.
There is a version setup for a manual installation. This version cannot be used with most other mods. It is not recommended. You cannot use this with the Community Patch. Your game will break
See the docs folder for more information.
Compatibility
Most mods should be compatible, unless they make major edits to the Endar Spire, Taris NPC dialogue, or Dantooine Jedi Training.
Fully compatible with KotOR 1 Community Patch. Install Jedi from the Start after. Fully compatible with Unofficial K1CP Tweak Pack. Do not install the "tar02_janice021.dlg" or "tar09_recept091.dlg" files from Persuade Fixes. They will remove my Force Persuade checks, and Jedi from the Start includes equivalent changes. Fully compatible with Restored Content for K1CP. Install Jedi from the Start after. Fully compatible with Taris Dueling Arena Adjustment. Fully compatible with JC's Jedi Tailor. Fully compatible with Carth's Republic Uniform and Flight Suit. SWToR Style Training Sabers will overwrite my changes to the Dantooine Lightsaber Training, but should not cause any issues. Not compatible with KotOR 1 Restoration. This mod is increasingly outdated. Use Restored Content for K1CP instead. Not compatible with Tutorial Remover. This mod includes its functionality. Not compatible with Trask Ulgo Without Tutorials. Not compatible with Recruit T3-M4 Early. This mod includes equivalent functionality. Not compatible with JC's Robe Adjustment. This mod includes most of its functionality. Recommended Mods
KotOR 1 Community Patch is strongly recommended. JC's Jedi Tailor is highly recommended. Thanks to JC for letting me include most of his Robe Adjustment mod. JC's Extra Saber Colors is highly recommended. You will be able to choose additional lightsaber color options when you create a character with this mod installed. Consular Sentinel Class Skill Swap (or KotOR 1 Community Patch which includes it) is recommended if you want the Sentinel class to be somewhat meaningful. Trask Ulgo Without Tutorials is recommended if you want a vanilla friendly tutorial remover instead. Special Thanks/Acknowledgements

Finesse: Melee Weapons and misc. fixes
By Nereithr
This adds functional Melee Weapon Finesse (melee weapon Attack increasing with either STR or DEX modifier, depending on which is higher) to KoTOR 1. It also works for unarmed attacks. Additionally, since this is a k_ai_master.ncs replacer, it restores the extra attack of repeating blasters. Another fix or two are underway (trying to restore the non-functional damage boost from Battle Stimulants at the moment).
Melee Finesse does not currently require a feat to be taken (since I consider it a pointless fun tax for DEX builds), but if there is interest a feat-restricted version would be easy to make. The feat is currently purely cosmetic and is given to the player (at level 2 because of reasons outlined in the installer) and all party members. A version without the pointless cosmetic feat is also available in the same download.
Note that due to the (hacky) way this is implemented (ai_scripts) the finesse effect updates every 0.5 seconds (for the player and party only) and cannot update while your inventory is open, so don't panic if your bonus doesn't instantly change when you are swapping weapons. Close the inventory, wait a moment, reopen and the bonus will change. If interested, read the Limitations/Technical details section below.
Installation
Grab the file, read the readme and either run Install.exe and follow the instructions or drop k_ai_master.ncs from Optional Manual Install into your Override folder. The TSLPatcher installer contains additional instructions for disabling either extra repeater attacks or finesse, as well as instructions for installing this with other mods that modify k_ai_master.ncs.
Uninstallation
This is safe to uninstall mid-playthrough (if you follow the instructions). Go to Ebon Hawk/Taris hideout (so all of your party members are loaded). Equip a lightsaber or a regular non-repeating blaster on all of your party members who are currently wielding a repeating blaster or a melee weapon (while suffering from a case of very high dex). You can now uninstall the mod by removing k_ai_master.ncs and (if using the full version) restoring the modified .utc and .2da files from the backup folder. Note that the restoring the utc/2da files from backup should only be done if this is the last mod you installed that patched those files.
Compatibility
Incompatible with any mods that outright replace k_ai_master.ncs:
Repeating blaster attacks restoration: includes its main functionality. The optional power shot/sniper shot fix is compatible. KOTOR 1 Improved AI: Should work if you compile k_ai_master.ncs with Improved AI’s files. To do so download K1 Improved AI, take the files from the Source folder and drop them in tslpatchdata\Full (or tslpatchdata\ScriptOnly if installing that version), then install this mod normally. Content Pack - Feats and Powers: Incompatible. Since both mods modify k_ai_master.nss, a manual patch would need to be created. Otherwise it should be compatible with pretty much everything else.
Known Issues/Limitations/Technical details
As ai script execution is paused in the inventory, there is no way to instantly update the attack bonus display when swapping items, meaning that if you are switching from a melee weapon to a ranged weapon (or vice-versa) the attack bonus from dex (if active) won't be added/removed until after you close the inventory and reopen it after a short delay (~0.5 seconds).
Since there is no way (without hacking apart the executable) to "natively" implement this functionality, the Attack from DEX is applied as an Attack Bonus Increase effect. This means it's subject to the maximum +20 feat and effects Attack Bonus cap, which most people likely haven't heard of before since it's basically unreachable in vanilla KoTOR. The bonus is applied as a difference between DEX and STR modifiers, which means that even late game fully buffed-up builds won't be hamstrung by the cap.
Additionally, this attack bonus is applied based on the mainhand weapon. This means that on a high DEX build, compared to a build where all of the attack bonus comes from STR, a mainhand vibroblade/offhand lightsaber will result in a higher offhand attack bonus (offhand lightsaber will benefit from dex bonus twice, since lightsabers are already finesse in the vanilla game), while a mainhand lightsaber/offhand vibroblade will result on a lower offhand attack (offhand vibroblade won't benefit from the dex bonus). I don't consider either of these big issues (since the offhand only attacks once per round) and it would be impossible to fix since there is no effect that only grants offhand/mainhand attack bonus.
Effects (repeater attacks and the finesse bonus) are checked/updated/removed every 0.5 seconds (pseudo-heartbeat that only runs between regular onHeartbeat calls) for the 9 party members and the player and only on certain perception/combat round end/damage events for all other entities (which automatically excludes all friendly NPCs that don't participate in combat). This should make the effects react very quickly to changing stats/weapons (if the player pops a Hyper-Adrenal Alacrity or switches from a repeating blaster to a vibroblade for example) without introducing any potential lag for NPCs.

Darth Souls
By ChandlerJ47
This mod is a reupload from the mod I first uploaded to Nexus mods. This mod is an essential tool to play the game however you want!
This simple mod, allows a very extensive set of difficulty options to be selected when playing Knights of the Old Republic. This does work for Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords as well! Ranging from Effortless difficulty, where you will take no damage during gameplay, all the way up to Impossible difficulty, where every move counts!
This mod was done to significantly increase or decrease game difficulty options. A full detail of all options are as follows:
Effortless - "requiring no physical or mental exertion." True to the definition, this makes your kotor experience completely story based. Fight even the toughest of enemies with no armor, and hand to hand combat!
Very Easy - 1/4 damage taken in game. Makes the game so easy, even a young child would enjoy without frustration.
Easy - "achieved without great effort; presenting few difficulties." This is the standard Easy difficulty option already present in-game. 1/2 damage from enemies.
Moderate - "average in amount, intensity, quality, or degree." This setting is slightly easier than the standard normal difficulty, best suited for gamers who have never played dice roller combat before. 3/4 damage from enemies.
Normal - "conforming to a standard; usual, typical, or expected." This is the default normal difficulty, recommended to start here for basic play as the game is balanced like the way it was intended. 100% damage from enemies.
Challenging - "testing one's abilities; demanding." This difficulty setting ups the ante in favor for the enemies in the game slightly. Best for first time players of the game but have experience with dice roller combat. 125% damage from enemies
Difficult - "needing much effort or skill to accomplish, deal with, or understand." This setting is the default max difficulty option, best for experienced players to play at this level. 150% damage from enemies.
Hard - "requiring a great deal of endurance or effort." This setting is the first one to really shine above normal gameplay capabilities, most players probably feel like the standard Difficult setting is still too easy. This setting will be a refresher for those ample to play harder difficulties without overdemanding scenarios. 200% damage from enemies.
Very Difficult - Essentially this is double the punishment done by the regular Difficult setting. Best suited for those who want extra challenge and thought processes for the journey. 300% damage from enemies.
Overpowering - "extremely strong or intense; overwhelming." This is where the game starts really getting Souls-like. Enemies will deliver punishing damage in late game. At times certain fights will make you doubt the possibilities of beating the game like this. 400% damage from enemies.
Impossible - "not able to occur, exist, or be done." This setting is for those who are Souls masters. Beating the game on this difficulty should be an achievement worth all the points it would take to beat all achievements from most games. Will have you looking like Darth Maul begging Darth Sidious for mercy, "There is no mercy." 500% damage from enemies.
So as you can see, this simple difficulty mod will cater to practically anyone's tastes. Just make sure to change difficulty prior to starting a new game. The default option will always select the second difficulty option no matter what, which in this case would be the "Very Easy" option. Let me know what you think of the mod and May the Force be with You!

Ladies of the Sith Army
By N-DReW25
Ladies of the Sith Army
A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic
Author: N-DReW25
1.3.0 Release Date: 11.12.2022
Installation:
Please install the K1 Community Patch FIRST before this mod!
Simply click on the TSLPatcher.exe, select your option, click install and sit back and watch the TSLPatcher do its magic.
Once the mod is installed, delete "PLC_SSldCrps.tpc" from the Override folder.
Description:
On Taris, you encounter a female off duty Sith by the name of Sarna who says the following:
"I'm off duty right now, so I'm not in uniform. My name is Sarna - junior officer first class with the Sith occupation force."- Sarna
A 'first class junior officer' makes it sound as if she is one of the many female Sith Officer NPCs you encounter throughout the game, however, the player has the option of stealing her Sith Armor which instead suggests she is a Female Sith Soldier... so where are the Female Sith Soldiers?
This mod will add Female Sith Soldiers throughout the K1 story alongside their male comrades in arms, they can be found in the following locations:
Endar Spire
Taris Undercity
Taris Military Base
Manaan Military Base
Leviathan
Star Forge
These new NPCs are a rework of the default Sith Trooper model, giving them feminine curves and the female animations. This, combined with the new Female Sith Soldier soundset (an edit of the normal Sith Soldier soundset),
will present authentic Female Sith Soldiers. Only the appearances and soundsets of the modified Sith are changed, the difficulty and loot drops of the affected Sith Soldiers remain unchanged.
Known Bugs:
This mod shouldn't have bugs but if there is Just PM me on Deadlystream.
When the Female Sith Soldier dies, her arms sometimes appear to clip into the ground. This is an issue with the model and isn't something I can fix.
Incompatibilities:
Please report any incompatibilities!
Should be compatible with most Sith Trooper reskins!
Permissions:
Do NOT claim credit for this mod and do not use assets from this mod without my permission.
The Female Sith Soldier models, however, are free for everyone to use!
Thanks to:
Maris Fett: For the neat model!
A Future Pilot: For making the Sith Soldier Texture Restoration mod which was merged with this mod!
Bioware: For such an amazing game!
Fred Tetra: For Kotor Tool!
Stoffee: For TSLPatcher!

Duros: Armed & Ready!
By N-DReW25
A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic
Author: N-DReW25
1.0.0 Release Date: 17.06.2023
Installation:
Please install the K1 Community Patch FIRST before this mod!
Simply click on this mod's INSTALL.exe, click install, sit back, and watch the TSLPatcher do its magic.
Description:
In the Kotor games, certain alien NPCs can wear the same robes and armor the player can (such as the Twi'leks and the Devaronians) whilst other aliens can't (such as Trandoshans and Rodians). The reason why this is is because of the way these aliens are setup, for example, the Twi'lek is made up of two models: the head and the body, whilst the Rodian is one single model containing both the head and the body.
The Duros NPCs are one of the aliens that use 1 model for the entire NPC instead of two, this prevents the Duros from visibly wearing any armor that's equipped on the Duros NPC.
Whilst most players won't really notice the single model alien NPCs who can't wear armor, what they might notice is how the Duros on Dantooine who are aligned with the Mandalorian faction there aren't wearing the iconic Mandalorian armor. One could argue that the Duros themselves aren't Mandalorians as they're only ever referred to as "allies" of the Mandalorians, but one longer has to argue, as this mod is here to change everything!
In 2015, JCarter426 released his Head Modder's Resource for K2 on MediaFire which took many one model aliens and separated the heads from their bodies. This allowed one model NPCs like Rodians to wear Jedi Robes when previously they couldn't.
This was not a mod; however, it was a resource for other modders to pick out assets they wanted to use in their own mods. In the past 8 years, the only thing that has come from the Modder's Resource was the Duros Jedi cameo in the Full Jedi Council mod by Kexikus and Duros Mandalorians in the Smash City Studios fan film "Star Wars KOTOR: Episode 1: A Familiar Path".
The idea of Mandalorian Duros has been a dream ever since I first saw the "A Familiar Path" fan film, and today we get to live that dream!
The Duros who accompany the Mandalorians on Dantooine and the Duros who work as Miners on Tatooine shall wear Mandalorian armor and Czerka uniform instead of the Duros outfit we all know and love.
Originally, I wanted to have two totally different separate mods that edited the Mandalorian Duros and the Duros Miners on Tatooine separately... but to ensure the cleanest installation process I've decided to release this mod, "Duros: Armed and Ready!", before those two mods so that if players don't like those two secret mods then players can simply opt for this simplier mod instead!
Those two secret mods shall require "Duros: Armed and Ready!" for the Duros aspect of those mods to work properly, but until those mods are released players do not have to worry about this.
Known Bugs:
This mod shouldn't have bugs, but if there are feel free to report it to me on Deadlystream.
It is possible that Duros modified in this mod shall perform 'idle' animations that clip through the Duros head (such as when an NPC brushes their hair, the Duros who perform this animation will brush right through their face). This bug isn't fixable without brute work modding (possibly involving a new unique Duros heavy battle armor and Czerka body model with different animations), though it shouldn't really be noticable as the Mandalorian Duros will turn hostile and attack the player if you approach them... the bug is only noticable if you focus on the Duros Miners.
When the Duros Miners on Tatooine speak, their lips will not move. This might either be an oversight on JCarter426's part back when he made the heads or a result of porting the head to K1, this might be fixed in a future update.
Incompatibilities:
Please report any incompatibilities!
Will be incompatible with any mod that changes the Mandalorian Duros on Dantooine or the Duros Miners on Tatooine, though I don't know of any mods that do this.
The Duros in this mod use the heavy battle armor and Czerka uniform body model, so any changes to these models will affect the Duros (Again, I don't know of any mods that do this).
Duros reskins, Mandalorian Armor reskins and Czerka uniform reskins should be compatible with this mod, though how they look together is up to personal opinion!
Permissions:
Do NOT claim credit for this mod and do not use assets from this mod without my permission.
The Duros head models themselves are free for any modder to use!
Thanks to:
JCarter426: For creating the Duros heads in the first place, without you this mod wouldn't have been possible!
Smash City Studios: For using the Duros heads in the "Star Wars KOTOR: Episode 1: A Familiar Path" fan film, their appearance greatly inspired this mod!
Bioware: For such an amazing game!
Fred Tetra: For Kotor Tool!
Stoffee: For TSLPatcher!

K1 Effixian's Twi'lek PC Pack
By Effix
---------------------------------------------
Knights of the Old Republic
---------------------------------------------
TITLE: K1 Effixian's Twi'lek PC Pack
AUTHOR: Effix(ian)
CONTACT: PM me on the forums or find me on Steam
-----------------------
DESCRIPTION
-----------------------
This mod pack can add 12 female and 9 male Twi'lek player characters and is a spin off of my K2 version. Most are based on vanilla NPC Twi'leks from either games and a few are unique.
All the females have matching custom underwear that's based on the Twi'lek NPCs outfits. The males get a white K2 version that can become black if they go darkside. They are not in line with the vanilla K1 underwear because I didn't really feel like doing 63 versions
The dark side transitions are a bit more subtle than vanilla player characters (most become more pale, females get very subtle veins showing). The eyes become like yellow Sith eyes as seen in the movies. A few characters have something extra as they progress to the dark side, see the screenshots.
There's an optional extra installer for making the female clothing the same as their underwear (jumpsuits).
P.S. The screenshots are from K2, but things should look the same.
-------------------------
INSTALLATION
-------------------------
Unzip somewhere. There's a folder "Installer", run the file "Effixians_K1_Twilek_PC_Pack.exe". Now you can select which of the 20 player characters you want to install. Once you've done that you press the "Install Mod" button and point the installer to the main location of your game folder.
If you install more than one of the females then the installer will give warnings about you already having certain files, it's not a problem, warnings aren't errors.
It can appear that the installer is not responding/seems to have crashed, just give it a minute or so and it will be truely done.
---------------------------
KNOWN ISSUES
---------------------------
There are clipping issues with some outfits, especially with the Lekku and the male throat. In KotOR 1 the 3 classes use different heights, I kept that in but I'm not sure yet if that's the best approach (It is cool, but doesn't reduce those clipping issues). Feel free to give feedback on it.
A few chars have custom clothing (Female Red, Yuthura, Adult Mission). They can make the character creation seem glitched out, but things will be fine once you start the game.
--------------------------
UNINSTALLING
--------------------------
1. For details on which files to clean up, see the .rtf file inside the tslpatchdata folder and then the folder that matches the character you've installed. You can also launch the installer again to see that text and then just not proceed with the install.
2. The installer creates a backup folder with appearance.2da, heads.2da and portraits.2da, you can place those back if you want to undo installing one character. However, those are snapshots of your previous situation, if you install 2 characters then your backup files will be as if you had only installed that first char.
If you haven't added any mods before then removing the above .2da files from the Override folder will make the game use the unmodded files again.

Damaged Calo Nord
By Lewok2007
WARNING: This Skin is intended to be used with another mod! Read the Installation section to follow instructions. The Mod intended is N-Drew's "Build a Calo" Mod. It can be found on DeadlyStream
Description:
With the release of N-Drew's "Build a Calo" mod, it would be fitting for someone to make a skin that describes a "damaged" Calo Nord. That's what I've done. I've given Calo some not too major burns on his face, and made his pants dusty and his jacket burned as well.
With the addition of giving a "damaged" reskin, I've also upscaled the textures by 4x.
Installation:
Install N-Drew's mod first: https://deadlystream.com/files/file/2444-build-a-calo/
Follow the instructions given in the mods description!
Afterwards, Copy all the files in the "Override" folder after extracting the .zip this mod is in to the Override folder in your Kotor game directory. Overwrite when/if prompted.
IF USING N-DREW'S MOD: Make sure when you install N-Drew's mod, you install it with both Head and Body modifications.
If NOT USING N-DREW'S MOD AND WISH TO USE THESE TEXTURES AS NORMAL: Change the "02" in each of the files name to "01"
UnInstalling:
Delete the files included with this mod, and replace with the files from n-drew's or another modders texture.
Compatability:
Compatible with everything but other mods that make the same changes as these mods.
Listed as Not Compatible with K1R, because of it's intended use with a non compatible mod.
Credits:

K1 Ported Alien VO Replacements
This mod replaces the voice overs used for Nikto, Aqualish, Gran, and Quarren NPCs in KOTOR.
In KOTOR I, Nikto, Aqualish, Gran, and Quarren NPCs use VOs that are meant for and shared by several other species. KOTOR II fixes this by adding VOs specific to these four species, so I figured hey, why not incorporate them back into the original game?
The intention of this mod is to provide a stronger sense of immersion and consistency between the two games, while keeping the affected dialogue true to its intended "feel." A bonus side effect is that the aggressive Nikto VOs make the Black Vulkars seem like an actual threat instead of comic relief.
Installation & Uninstallation
To install this mod, run Installer.exe, select the option(s) you want, and proceed with the installation.
To uninstall this mod, run the installer again, select the same option(s), and click Tools -> Uninstall Mod / Restore Backup.
Compatibility
Compatibility patches are included for K1CP (Queedle Fix) , KOTOR 1 Restoration, and Kainzorus Prime's K1 NPC Overhaul mod.
K1R has a Nikto NPC in the Vulkar Base sublevel with Basic (English) VOs. I decided to leave this unaltered since it's restored content.
Known Issues
Some of the Nikto and Gran VOs don't have perfectly matching mouth animations, which is because KOTOR II is missing some LIP files. The placeholders I'm using are as close as I could find. These may be replaced in a later version.
Redros's mouth doesn't move for a couple of lines of dialogue. This bug happens regardless of this mod and only if his appearance is Nikto, so I felt the bug is beyond this mod's scope.
Please let me know of any other issues you find, or if you come across anything I missed!

K1 Better Male Twi'lek Heads
This mod intends to address key issues with male Twi'lek heads in KOTOR I.
The main improvements are the addition of ears and slimming down on the Bib Fortuna necks. Other tweaks include better smoothing groups, fixed teeth and eyelids, and recolored tongues. The ears were created using modified assets ported from SWTOR.
There's two options for installation. Option A uses the slim necks, while Option B retains the original necks. I highly recommend the first option as it fixes clipping with collars on heavy armor and it's the main choice for other mods which use my files.
Given the frequency of Twi'lek NPCs, this mod's a nice visual improvement that adds a much-needed element of consistency with other humanoid head models in the game.
The KOTOR II can be found here.
Installation & Uninstallation
To install this mod, run Installer.exe, select the option you want, and proceed with the installation.
To uninstall this mod, run the installer again, select the same option, and click Tools -> Uninstall Mod / Restore Backup.
Compatibility & Known Issues
This mod isn't compatible with any retextures of male Twi'lek heads unless that mod states otherwise.
This mod has built-in compatibility with the K1 Community Patch and is also compatible with the K1 NPC Overhaul Mod. Either should be installed prior to installing this mod.
I've given permission for this mod to be included in a few other projects. Be sure to check the descriptions of those mods to see if you need to install this first.

K1 HD Legal Screen
This mod replaces the KOTOR legal screen with a high-resolution version that stays faithful to the original.
The two options for installation are the Classic (4x3 with black borders) and Widescreen (16x9) editions. These are both 1080p. If requested, additional resolutions may be added in the future.
Installation
To install this mod, simply drop legal.bik in 'Movies' into the Movies folder in your game's directory. Make a backup copy of the original if you might uninstall this mod later.
Widescreen Patching
In order for this mod to work properly, your game must be patched to run in widescreen. Here's a couple of useful links in doing so.

Diversified Jedi Captives on the Star Forge
Based on this request thread, this mod replaces the Jedi captive placeables used in the final confrontation with Darth Malak aboard the Star Forge. In the vanilla version of the game, these are all identical copies of the same male body using the PMHC04 (“Mullet Man”) head. New male and female versions of this placeable have been made, utilising a variety of heads from all three human races, and Twi’leks. All eight captives in the level are now unique and distinct from one another.
Additionally, the flavour pop-up text for when you interact with the captives has been altered to change the male pronouns into neutral ones, so they work regardless of the subject’s gender.
For those that wish it, an optional extra is included that adds these new Jedi as background NPCs to the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine (N.B. as of v1.1, the pictured sparring circle has been removed due to the placeables.2da row limit bug described below).
Known Issues:
WARNING: A critical issue has been discovered with K1's placeables.2da, limiting the number of additional new entires that can be added to around 20 rows. This mod adds 8 rows. If you use multiple mods that add new rows to placeables.2da, you will likely encounter issues. DO NOT REINSTALL THIS MOD OVER A PREVIOUS VERSION! You will create the placeable overflow issue. In order for the Dantooine portion of the optional extra to take effect, you must use a save prior to leaving Taris. The courtyard portion will only take effect for saves prior to being allowed to exit the Academy. These additions are purely cosmetic, so their absence will have no material affect on the primary purpose of the mod. The core content of the mod will only work with a save prior to entering the final room on the Star Forge, but I assume (hope) most people aren't still installing mods that late in proceedings. Compatibility:
The mod is compatible with K1CP. Make sure you install K1CP first. The core content of the mod should be compatible with most other mods, as the changes are restricted to the second-last module in the game (STA_M45AD). The optional content makes changes to the Dantooine Enclave's landing pad (DANM13) and courtyard (DANM14AA) modules. If you are using any mod that overwrites those modules (like Kainzorus Prime's NPC Overhaul Mod), make sure you install that mod first. This mod will patch its changes into pre-existing module files, so should be installed last. Changes in 1.2.1 should mean the Twi'lek master in the optional Dantooine content is now impervious to further hostile robe takeover attempts. If you use @JCarter426's "Fashion Line I - Cloaked Jedi Robes for K1" mod, you can download the supplied compatibility patch to have him wear the TSL robes. If you use @JCarter426's "Fashion Line I - Cloaked Hybrid Robes for K1" mod, you can download the supplied compatibility patch to have him wear the hybrid robes. Acknowledgements:
Thanks to @Kexikus for providing code for the NPC OnHeartbeat scripts. Thanks to @jc2 for the suggestion on how to fix the sparring circle combatant health bars. Thanks to @JCarter426 for suggesting the NotReorienting creature flag and for the TSL ported robe assets. Thanks to @bead-v for KOTORMax and MDLEdit. Thanks to @ndix UR for MDLOps v1.0+ and TGA2TPC. Thanks to @StellarExile for pointing out the issue with VFX targeting the base of the model. I must be blind... Thanks to @todevuch for testing the hybrid robes compatibility patch. Thanks to @olegkuz1997 for pointing out that the placeables didn't use TLK StrRefs for their labels. Thanks to @Alice Reyneke for pointing out that pathfinding for the placeables was broken by a previous update.35,993 downloads

Children NPC Fixes
By N-DReW25
A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic and Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic 2
Author: N-DReW25
1.0.0 Release Date: 29.01.2022
Installation:
Consult this readme's description and the mod screenshots on Deadlystream to select which fix option you'd like to install.
Open the folder which contains your fix option and drag or copy the texture/textures within and drop or paste them into your Kotor 1 or 2 Override folder.
Recommendation from the mod author: Do NOT install the Caucasian Head option with the Tanned Hands option.
Uninstallation:
Delete the N_CommKidF01.tga, n_commkidm01.tga and/or N_childFH01.tga files from your Override folder.
Description:
The Children NPCs in both Kotor games have a few graphical inconsistencies with them, especially the female NPC. The ideal fix for these problems
are entirely subjective with multiple solutions for the same problem, this mod is a "pack" of different fixes which will allow you to fix the bugs the way you see fit.
The fix options:
Bug A: The female child has a tanned head with white hands, thus resulting in mismatched skin.
Fix 1: Caucasian Head, thus matching the head with the hands
Fix 2: Gloved Children, covering the male and female hands with gloves thus hiding the hands.
Fix 3: Tanned Hands, thus matching with the head.
Bug B: The female child NPC uses the same hand texture as the male child, thus resulting in the female having masculine hands.
Fix 1: Smooth Hands, this fix will smoothen out the hand textures. This option also has sub-options with smoothed Tanned Hands and a male version of the smoothed hands.
Known Bugs:
This mod shouldn't have bugs but if there is Just PM me on Deadlystream.
Incompatibilities:
Would be incompatible with any mods which modify N_CommKidF01.tga, n_commkidm01.tga and/or N_childFH01.tga.
This mod is fully compatible with Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords.
Permissions:
Do NOT claim credit for this mod and do not use assets from this mod without my permission.
Thanks to:
Sith Holocron: For his feedback on my early mod screenshots.
Bioware: For such an amazing game
Fred Tetra: For Kotor Tool
Stoffee: For TSLPatcher
Everyone who downloads the mod!

Diversified Wounded Republic Soldiers on Taris
Based on this request thread, this mod attempts to inject a bit of extra variety into one of the minor elements of KOTOR. It makes some changes to the locked kolto tank room in Zelka Forn’s medical clinic in Upper City South on Taris.
In the vanilla version of the game, the room has two placeable square kolto tanks, the floating bodies in which both use the PMHC04 (“Mullet Man”) head. For this mod, those were removed and the room model was edited to add two additional round kolto tanks, which match the ones along each side of the room. Additionally, the glass of the tanks had its texture replaced with one of the other variants in the game that is a bit darker and uses an environment/cube map for a hint of reflection. The empty tanks in the preceding room (behind Zelka Forn) were also edited for consistency. For the sanity of those with OCD, the position of the wall light at the back of the tank room was adjusted so it aligns with the centreline of the room.
The floating body model from the kolto placeable was replaced with a new one with clean geometry at the neck join to facilitate using any player or NPC head. Additionally, an all-new female body variant was added, posed to roughly match that of the original male version. Two of these new body variants replaced the original two at the end of the room, with a number of additional bodies placed in the tanks along each side of the room. Zelka Forn’s dialogue when you enter the room for the first time seems to indicate that there should be more present than just the two originally depicted in the vanilla game. Due to limitations on the number of possible placeables K1 can deal with, outlined here by ndix UR, the floating bodies are now part of the room model.
Installation:
The mod includes a TSLPatcher installer for Windows users. Those on Linux or Mac should replace it with the appropriate HoloPatcher version which will run natively on their OS. Known Issues:
This mod relies on editing the Taris Upper City South module's GIT (tar_m02ac). As such, it will not be compatible with any save in which you have previously entered the Upper City South level. Given that is the very first level you enter after leaving the starting apartment on Taris, that means you'll typically need to start a new game to utilise this mod. Per some of my posts in the original request thread, I initially experienced some issues with the tank’s glass texture affecting lighting on the body models (and even outright visibility in one instance) depending on the player’s viewing angle. I believe this has been resolved, but it’s possible the problem may still occur on hardware/OS combinations that I have no way of testing. The floating bodies use these player head models. There is no provision for dealing with a clone of the head the player is using now that the mod has switched to incorporating the bodies into the room model. A future update may replace these heads with NPC heads instead. Compatibility:
Edited versions of both room models for the medical facility (M02AC_02G & M02AC_02H) are required for this mod, so will not be compatible with any other mod that edits those models. They still use vanilla textures however, so they will be compatible with texture mods. The mod will not be compatible with any mod that edits the two entries for the original tank placeables in the module’s GIT (Placeable List entries 0 and 22). It should otherwise be compatible with other mods that alter the Upper City South module, as long as they utilise a properly set up TSLPatcher configuration. Since it has come up in the comments, Kainzorus Prime's NPC Overhaul Mod is compatible, but ONLY if you install it before installing this mod (KP's mod will forcibly overwrite any and all module files, so install it before anything). Acknowledgements:
Thanks to bead-v for KOTORMax and MDLEdit, and ndix UR for MDLOps 2K18 Edition, all of which were required at various points to get this to work. Thanks to ndix UR for many and various discussions and troubleshooting regarding models, compiling, textures, etc. Thanks to Dark Hope for the suggestion to change the bubble VFX.33,283 downloads
