About This File

This mod adds a workshop to the Ebon Hawk's garage, with which you can construct or deconstruct lightsabers and lightsaber components.

 

One of the things Obsidian did differently was the way you make your first lightsaber. In the first game, you build it at the Jedi Enclave, so they have all the parts there. In K2, the Jedi are all gone, so you're given a scavenger hunt. You have to find three components, bring them to your buddy Bao-Dur, and then you get to make your lightsaber. With that in mind, I have designed the workshop to deconstruct lightsabers, giving you a color crystal and those three parts. Double-bladed lightsabers contain an extra focusing lens and emitter. With all these parts in hand, you can use the workshop to create lightsabers, as well. Furthermore, you can use the workshop to create or breakdown the individual components (provided you have the schematics for them - i.e. you've gotten them through the Crafting a Lightsaber quest - and the right skill points). So that means you can create as many lightsabers as there are color crystals; those crystals won't be burning a hole in your pocket.

 

In short, you have more control over your lightsabers; you can create sabers out of crystals and components, and you can change lightsaber type at will.

 

Oh, and you do not need to start a new game or anything of that sort. The
workshop will appear on the Ebon Hawk when you enter.

Obsidian really dropped the ball when it came to game progression. You are taught how to make new items from components, upgrade them, and even test them on Peragus and then you literally do nothing with this for the rest of the game.

The most logical continuation would be creating, upgrading, and testing your own lightsaber parts due to your "Rogue Jedi" status, right?

First time I played, I got confused by the upgrade system. When Bao-Dur told me the parts I'd need, I thought I could go to the workbench and build them since they were listed there, but no matter what I tried he kept saying "you're still missing a lens" or whatever. The saber workshop was at least partly inspired by that mistake.

It only lets me build Lightsaber Energy Fixtures. Is there some kind of level/skills requirements for build the other parts?

For to check I've used KSE for level up my skills but no options for build the other parts again.

Another question. I have deconstructed a lightsaber and I have all the parts I need for to show to Bao Dur but he still says I need some parts. (Aside, the workshop permits me build lightsabers with these parts).

Checking more things I've cheated the parts of the lightsaber according KSE LS parts (and they use different slots in the inventory that the parts I already had) but Bao Dur says I'm missing parts again.

The only one other MOD related with Lightsabers I've installed is 'Holowan Duplisaber Beta .215b' By VarsityPuppet (Installed sometime after JC's MOD)

About the compatibility, the JC'S MOD Readme file says that perhaps doesn't work with custom sabers but I don't know how this can affect to the options for to build parts or/and the Lightsaber/Bao Dur quest.

Any idea?

If you cheated in the lightsaber parts, that would explain your problems. Both the "Crafting a Lightsaber" and the Saber Workshop will only work properly if you acquire all the lightsaber parts normally.

All right, I thought the same after fail with Bao but, aside the quest, the build options (emitter and focusing lens) in the Workshop aren't there before cheating. That is why I asked about the skills.

Maybe I haven't understood the description. Reading it again:
- I need get each part BEFORE I can build it? So, I just have the "Energy Cell Fixture" from Chodo and I just can build that?

But, if you already have a Lightsaber, you can deconstruct it and use these parts with Bao Dur?

My current Lightsabers are custom and I realized that the only ones I can get now with KSE are custom ones as well. That could explain  why its parts doesn't work with Bao Dur.

You shouldn't be able to construct lightsabers with the Saber Workshop at all until after completing "Crafting a Lightsaber" with Bao-Dur. I can't predict what is possible if you've used cheats or other mods.

As for the individual parts, yes, you can only build ones you've already found. The rest should unlock one at a time when you find them.
