A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic II
Author: N-DReW25
1.0.0 Release Date: 18.05.2025
Installation:
Please install The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod 1.8.6 FIRST, no exceptions.
It is highly advised to install the KOTOR 2 Community Patch before this mod, this is optional.
This mod is divided into two parts, the HoloPatcher component and the Override Component.
To install Override Component features, simply open their folders and copy their mod files to the Kotor 2 Override folder.
To install HoloPatcher Component features, simply click on the HoloPatcher.exe, pick your desired restoration, click install, and sit back and watch the installer do its magic.
WARNING: It is highly recommended that you do not install the game on your system's C drive, especially in Program Files. Windows can have permissions issues when trying to install the mod to a C drive destination. If you are using the Steam version of the game and have installed Steam in its default Program Files location, we advise creating a new Steam Library on a different drive and moving the game there via the game's Properties pop-up in Steam.
Do note that this mod is highly decentralized, whilst this gives you the ability to pick and choose what you'd like it also means you'll have to install each feature individually if you want them all.
Description:
The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod (TSLRCM) is the mod that saved Kotor II after its disastrous December 2004 release that saw the game practically unfinished and riddled with annoying bugs. This mod is THE number one go-to mod for Kotor II, it's so popular that Aspyr "tried" to bring the mod to Nintendo Switch via a DLC and when that DLC was cancelled there was an uproar amongst Star Wars fans for having done this.
Despite the claim that TSLRCM fixed the bugs and restored the cut content, that factually isn't true. There are many bugs that TSLRCM missed and there is cut content still being found in the game files to this very day, though just because these bugs and cut content exist doesn't mean they could/should be fixed/restored.
Things like M4-78 and the GenoHaradan go beyond the scope of TSLRCM's goals and as such were restored as standalone mods rather than being part of TSLRCM, cut content like Lt. Yima's quest has hardly anything left to restore except for a typo riddled dialogue for Yima and journal entries, and bugs like the Mandalorians on the Ravager having Dark Jedi soundsets are so obscure and easily missable that it hardly justifies a TSLRCM update.
As is stands, TSLRCM 1.8.6 is seen by many as being 'completed' - that it succeeded in doing what it set out to do.
Enter stage the Kotor II Restored Content Plus mod, I mod I've thrown together to restore even MORE cut content to Kotor II (more bug fixes can be found in N-DReW's Bug Fix Collection for TSL).
What's Restored in K2RC+:
Known Bugs:
This mod shouldn't have any bugs but if there are please report them to me on Deadlystream.
The "Street Dancer Restoration" is supposed to have music play when you are within their vicinity, though as of right now the music is silent in-game.
