5 pointsI have to say that I like the idea of the mod, but it just destroys the vanilla atmosphere in my opinion. I don't want to buy 2 mantles of the force of the force from a fish seller on Manaan and there are certainly not 20 battle armors of Cassus Fett. Other traders become useless with this mod, for example the one on Korriban with the exclusive stuff. Why should I buy that +5 glove from him if I can get it cheaper from a pazaak player on Tatooine. I ended up removing this mod, even though I really like the concept, if it only was better balanced.

4 pointsI like the idea of this mod, because it fits my head canon for one of my player characters. She's a light side Jedi Guardian, but she started out as a Scoundrel. Her story is that she didn't like the idea of becoming a Jedi, which normally means giving up all her freedom for the rest of her life. She agreed to do the Jedi training on Dantooine only because the Jedi Masters told her that Malak would hunt her down and kill her anyway if she didn't. So, she decided that she would be a Jedi only as long as Malak was still alive, and then she would quit the Jedi Order and go back to being a Scoundrel. Therefore, right after killing Malak, she takes the Ebon Hawk and does a runner! Bastila, Juhani and Carth aren't impressed, but don't dare to try and stop her as she's way too powerful. Jolee, Canderous and Mission just think it's funny!

4 pointsTo fix the saber workbench issue, a crystal UTI needs to be added to the mod. The resref for this is the "template" referred to in upcrystals.2da. Additionally, the longmdlvar therein needs to point to the hilt UTI, which is j_juhsaber01 in this case. For future users, @Stormie97 will need to rectify this with an update to the mod. Fortunately, thanks to a handy tool by @VarsityPuppet, it's possible to fix this for anyone that has already installed the mod (at least for those on Windows). Grab the ZIP below and extract it somewhere. Copy the upcrystals.2da file from your Override folder, paste it into the extracted PATCHER folder. Run the BAT file and follow the prompts and it will patch your 2DA with the corrected values. Copy and paste upcrystals.2da back into your Override folder. Also make sure you grab the UTI and TGA from the FOR OVERRIDE folder and paste those into your Override as well. Stormie97_Juhani_Saber_Patch.zip

4 pointsIn an attempt to save this mod... here are some REAL instructions It's actually very easy so don't freak out Let me start by saying, the file that he calls "Part 10" is actually named "TELOS Extract Manually". Yes, the one without all caps is part 10 1) First up, you will need a program that the author clearly believes everyone should know about for some reason... I certainly hadn't heard about it until now Called XnView. Download it from here https://www.xnview.com/en/ We won't use it 'til the later steps, we're just getting this out of the way now. Don't worry, it's less steps now than the initial instructions make it seem. I assume thats for an older version 2) Download all RARs from here 3) Extract the two RARs called "EXTRACT MANUALLY" and "TELOS Extract Manually" (this second one is "part10") and manually copy or move all their contents into KotOR II's "Override" folder Yes, we're doing part 10 out of order. It's easier for us this way as these are the only two folders out of the bunch that we can handle like this. This is only because the author obviously forgot to add it in the initial upload 4) Now, Extract the contents of parts 1 through to part 11 (with part 10 missing obviously as we've already done that) INTO A SINGLE FOLDER! What I mean by that is, don't just make a folder with the folders inside for "TELOS Part 1", "TELOS Part 2" etc. All the contents from each RAR need to be in the same single folder. Note: For some reason, when doing this, there was a file or two that needed to be overwritten. I'm assuming this due to some sort of update the author made 5) Now we're moving on to the XnView stuff. Open any one of the extracted files i this new folder we've made with XnView For me, it opened full screen for some reason so if that happens for you, just press escape. You should now see all the files in the folder in a viewing window within XnView 6) Select all the files by pressing Ctrl+A 7) With all files selected, go to Tools > Batch Convert 8 ) Set the output folder to KotOR II's "Override" folder and press "Convert" on the bottom right of the window DONE. Enjoy! Avs

4 pointsCould we potentially get a version with a static background maybe? I love the background that the portrait has at the moment, but it doesn't quite match the typical pastel colored scheme that allot of other portrait mods/reskin mods have is all... not that it takes away from the mod at all or anything

4 pointsA vast improvement over the vanilla KOTOR skyboxes, Kexikus. This collection of KOTOR skyboxes felt vibrant and more alive. Manaan's underwater research facility's sunlight through the water was a subtle and interesting touch. Korriban felt like an old, dusty place of extreme evil belied by the calming twilight of its sun and the expansiveness of its mountain ranges that impress a beautifully desolate world. There were what looked like recycled rudimentary cloud designs between Dantooine and Korriban which I thought seemed statical amid the rest of their environments. I admire your work - and something I think could make you even better is observing how detail and pattern can create dynamic skyboxes from static textures like in Xarwarz's Dantooine 2012 (illusion of movement) and Vurt's Exterior Textures part 2 mod (depth through pattern), respectively. You're giving me another reason to do another tour through KOTOR! Keep on keepin' on!

4 pointsPeople may say this ruins the balance of the game, but I say who cares?! And really, that only works in a non-SW sense. If armor actually restricted one's ability to use the Force, how is Darth Vader, who's so much machine, able to do all that he does? Or in KotOR 1, you battle Darth Bandon who uses all these supposedly restricted by armor Force powers, then when you defeat him and take his armor, you somehow aren't able to use the exact same powers he was using not a minute earlier! This mod was AWESOME!!! There are only so many times you can wear the unrestricting Jedi robes or the Jal Shey armor before it get's boring. How nice it was to be able to use the Force while wearing awesome looking armor!

3 points@HraithPlease read the whole post before answering. As I said, K1R has a main goal which is to restore content. K1CP fixes way more things, but it doesn't add everything K1R adds, obviously. Is K1R done ? Is it not ? Depends on the definition. You have no idea exactly what Bioware cut and what they didnt. K1R only restores what its team knew the existence of. Anyway, I'm pretty sure you didn't look at all of my links because I sent you to the Restored content project for K1CP which is in development right now. It already adds quite a lot of things actually, including this : You should take a look at it. I linked it to you in my first post. So no, it doesn't restore everything. But yes, K1CP+RC-K1CP is a better idea than K1R. "I can only assume you didn't link to the "other things that can be added to K1CP" because you couldn't find them either". Again, depends what we're talking about. I linked to the Iriaz restoration, because for me it's one of the best things, makes Dantooine way more alive, but I'm pretty sure there are other things out there, I'm just too lazy to look for them, however you can do it yourself. I feel like I'm providing enough here. You're not even looking at everything I link to anyway. K1CP is also way better because of compatibility. It's basically compatible with everything. Not K1R. I'm making the Pazaak tournament come back with a better quality and compatibility, so yes, there is restored content for K1CP, already existing and coming out regularly. If you really want the beer contest stuff, you can directly ask @N-DReW25 who's currently working on the RC-K1CP and he might include it. Perhaps I can make it myself, and include it as an option to the Pazaak Tournament. I just need permission to use the files. K1CP is a work in progress to make the game better, in bug and other issues fixing for K1CP as well as in content restoring for RC-K1CP, and it does that perfectly. Edit : The Manaan Pazaak Tournament restoration is done. You can take it and put it in your K1CP installation. It is compatible with RC-K1CP. Again, you can play the game with K1R, it's fine. It's actually what I'm doing on my phone. But do your computer a favour, make your PC installation K1CP / RC-K1CP. And bro, please tell me you're not the kind of guy who's saying this seriously : "Bastilla's bright blue eyes and slightly see thru lingerie"...

3 pointsI had a quick play with using stencils in Blender. It's a bit fiddly due to the UV distortion, but with a bit of trial and error I think you could get it pretty close. It might be easier to do the arrow head and the line as two separate stencils. Here's a video that covers the basics of using stencils - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urUdMbO4E2c&t=155s Edit: OK, I played around with it some more. Try these on for size: Game-ready textures, source masks, and Blender file attached: Malak Airbender_Source.7z

3 pointsTo add, I am experiencing the exact same Dxun no cutscenes Issue. I've attached the install logs from my original playthrough w/ ~130 other mods, and the recent install log from today with only TSLRCM and M4-78ep, and HQ skyboxes. Although, from reading the above conversation, it looks like these warnings are all normal. Followed the uninstall instructions in the readme, and that did not help (maybe I missed a file, maybe it's not supposed to help. Idk) Did a complete uninstall of the game. Loaded a save from dxun, the cutscenes played fine. Installed TSLRCM 1.8.6, tested, everything was fine. M4-78ep installed, tested, everything fine. HQ Skyboxes installed third, no cutscenes. Was also unable to interact with the computer terminal for the droids on the crashed ship. I could loot bodies, talk to companions, and go through combat fine. I was able to play through Peragus/Telos/Nar Shaddaa without any issues. I think it may just be the first area on Dxun affected. Just went to the next module in the Dxun jungle and did get cutscenes and escorted to the base. 12-19HQSB2installlog.rtf installlog.rtf

3 pointsTo everyone experiencing this problem, I had the same one and realized I was using the wrong version of XnView. If you go to their homepage, the latest version is XnView MP 0.90. This won't work with what we're trying to do. Go here: https://download.xnview.com/old_versions/ and download XnView 2.33-win-full.exe, and then follow the instructions and it will work. You'll notice this is the same version in the tutorial.

3 pointsThis mod works well; I encountered no bugs during my playthrough. The spliced dialogs are highly believable in-game. More importantly, and what I appreciate most about it, is that providing Revan with a more complete set of relationship possibilities makes the character more nuanced, believable, and customized, deepening the role-playing aspect (by putting more choice in the player's hands) and helping to tie the two games together (in the presence of K1 alternate romance mods that have existed for quite some time). Even though the romantic elements of TSL are pared down, it is great not to have romantic backstory imposed on you when your choices in the first game differed substantially. In extreme cases, the player might not even pick up on a Carth/female Revan romance angle in TSL, because they've always played female Revan w/ Bastila romance mod in K1. I also appreciate the work the author has gone through to package this up nicely, iron out the bugs, flesh out compatibility info, and provide all the steps needed to make the mod work from existing saves. It is really nice to have these alt-romance mods in bug-reduced forms.

3 pointsI'm playing KoTOR 1&2 for the 1st time ever, a little late I know, but I hope their worth it, and as an experienced game player I know that Mods don't have to spoil games, but instead Improve games to be there absolute best, so before I play them, I've decided to get a few small mods that improve the look and feel of the game, without changing the story or gameplay, and out of the dozen I've seen so far, this is by far the most beautiful and polished, IMO, as such, I hope using this Mod will make my 1st time through the game even more Amazing, thank you for your hard work on making a dated game more Enjoyable
