Feels like a really good step up from the Demo. I liked the changes to the areas on Correllia and the overall story felt more smooth and enjoyable than it was before.

The lightsabers themselves, are fantastic. Couldn't ask for more (aside from what Obisoln said). The spawn locations, however, completely and utterly destroy this mod. You put a lightsaber, on Taris. Not only that, you put it in an area where we can get it, before we even have Bastila in the party. Just put it on the body of the Jedi on the Endar Spire why don't ya? (Just because I don't doubt that you might, that was a joke. Don't take it seriously.) Dantooine is nearly as bad. You JUST received the ability to even use a lightsaber, and oops, here's a lightsaber that's way better than the lightsaber that you just built that's supposed to be yours for life, AND it's before you even have access to crystals. The others aren't that horrific, but they're still awful. The back of the landing pad. Are you serious? I shouldn't have to explain this one. Kashyyyk's isn't half bad, but it's not even in the Lower Shadowlands. Sorry if this is coming off as harsh, but dude, this is not good. If I was going to place the sabers somewhere, the Lily goes in the Terentatek's belly on Kashyyyk. The Evenstar goes in the footlocker of the Sith Master on Manaan. The Sceptre goes either in the inventory of the Storyteller or the back of the Krayt Dragon's lair on Tatooine. And of course the Righteous Hand goes on Duron Qel-Droma's body in the back of the Shyrack cave on Korriban. As it stands now, as far as anyone that cares about balance or theme (basically anyone that isn't modding MP5s in the game) is concerned, this mod is unusable. Which is deeply sad and frustrating at the same time.

I beat the mod. Or at least whats on the planet itself. That was great. Not perfect, but great which is pretty dang close. I seriously haven't had this much fun with a Kotor mod since I was a little kid playing BOSSR or the old Yavin 4 mod when those mods first came out. This was a blast from the past. And the writing was way better than I expected. Well, It would take me a looooong time to explain what I loved most about this mod, so I'll just focus this review on the few things I think could benefit from some improvement. -consider populating Sleheyron with various types of citizens even with the Iridonians walking around from start to finish. It feels weird without them, regardless of story. -make the one-text dialogue with characters like Sith and Iridonians not transition into full dialogue sequences, but just react like other simple NPCs with a text bubble only -Having a lot of areas look just like Taris again, even if it wasn't the exact same module, was still slightly immersion breaking. Please consider reskinning these areas in any way you like, just make it different. You already did this half the time with these modules and it worked well. -this might just be me, I'm not sure, but Rudos shop module is completely broken. The walls and floor are missing. I am running a clean install of the game, outside a resolution mod and some icon texture mods. I even reinstalled the resolution several times to see if that made a difference, the room is still bugged. If this is just me, I'm at a loss as to what could be the cause of this. -Some enemies give way too little experience for what they're worth. The (very neat) reference to the special NPC you fight in the Czerka lab is worth like 30XP which is a joke considering how tough he is. -Try to see if you can make a custom Sleheyron-themed door for all these modules. Having the doors not fully cover the entry/exit just feels kinda odd -Although I think the splicing of modules was really cool to see, it sometimes leaves holes in level geometry. Some weren't so noticable, others glaringly bad. -My biggest gripe with the mod, A few of the modules have absolutely terrible level transition boxes. I think it would be best to just edit the module so that you add an extra hallway that connects to these transition areas instead. This was most noticable in the Czerka lab area. This was frustrating and confusing at times. I'd give it 4.9/5 if possible but we don't have that so I'll settle with 5/5 Oh and what you did with Vanasseus, you're insane man lmao that was too funny

When SAO set out to make this mod, he mentioned hoping that it would feel like if Bioware themselves made a DLC for the game. Suffice to say, he succeeded There is a little jank here and there, mainly to do with the (Bioware-made) incomplete Sleheyron modules, and the occasional oddity I'm sure will be ironed out over time, but these are all small things I very readily overlook. The writing is fantastic, the scenarios and possible outcomes are great, the design philosophy feels very much in line with how Kotor generally does things, and most of all - you've got replayability, and not just on Sleheyron itself since the mod includes a new custom companion You're definitely going to want to try this one

Thank you for producing this. I was determined to use the K1R on my first playthrough of KotOR I in ~15 years. Extra content sounded awesome. Well, I should have done more research before downloading that mod. Ran into tons of bugs. Lesson learned that K1CP is better. Running across this mod was a delight. Rather than picking between K1R and K1CP, it looks like we'll get to have our cake and eat it too. Looking forward to future updates with more K1R content.

At last, the classic we've all been waiting for arrives on DS. Now TSL is actually worth playing. My only regret is that I am only able to rate it 5 stars.

Thank you so much for making this. Absolutely awesome playing one of my favorite games on my phone, with the content restored. Any chance of making M478 playable on mobile?

This is one of the most beloved days in my life!) You gave me a holiday today! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. This day came! Incredible! There are many words in my language that reflect the same feeling in varying degrees, it’s a pity that in English these are just a few words But it seems to me that in English it’s clear that this mod is cool, very, very cool!

I originally made some upscales to some BoS:SR textures for my now-defunct Steam Guide because the low quality textures were especially noticeable when using High Resolution textures for the rest of the game, but those were never meant to be anything other than a quick fix, these on the other hand cover everything that can be reasonably upscaled and you can actually see the work put into it and take it a step further beyond simple upscales. The Skyboxes thankfully aren't included by default (Because of Kexikus' awesome Skybox textures and I can't play either game without them) and the textures for Shadow aren't included at all thanks to the existence of Dark Hope's lovely retexture. Even in 2024, Brotherhood of Shadow is alive and well thanks to the continued efforts of Sith Holocron, Dark Hope, Kexikus, ndix UR, and many others. That said, I think Brotherhood of Shadow is in dire need of new voice actors, dialogue revisions, and overall bug fixes before it can truly be considered in-line with the rest of the game. This upscale pack is is getting us one step further towards that goal. Oh, and there are some video upscales/60fps interpolation of the movies but I have it on good authority those might be remade in the future. Thanks for this and congrats once again on the release.

I died to a gizka. 10/10

KOTORModSync is amazing for installing the large Kotor Reddit mod builds by Snigaroo. Usually they can take hours of the day to install, but with KOTORModSync, it can only take around 20 minutes to an hour - depending on how fast you are able to install and how quick your computer is. The GUI themes look amazing. I personally prefer the TSL theme. The GUI itself is also very easy to read and understand. Any thing that I needed more information on was able to be reviewed in the output window. While KOTORModSync has had some issues, they were either reasonable or minor enough. It is nothing that is too bad. Overall KOTORModSync is a big yes, and I will always be using it to install the Kotor Reddit mod builds when I need to. 5/5 Stars. Good Job @th3w1zard1

This is phenomenal! The blades look perfect in terms of color and shape, and the glow effect is both subtle and beautiful. I only wish that the glow and blade shape could easily carry over to some of the other custom hilts I have installed, though I tend to play K1 more vanilla than modded so the higher poly default hilts will do here.

I got a chance to open up the dialogue file and look within, I really like the simplicity & direction of this mod. The wording is very immersive & believable. I recommend this mod to anyone that prefers a very smooth and laid back playthrough or dialogue style.

No more silent exile!

To anyone having doubts about this mod: don't. At version 2.2.0 it does an exceptional job at delivering what it promises in the summary above. Much of the dialogue about you not being a Jedi is gone, some PC responses have been altered accordingly and it flows really well storywise. Just an important note: if you are using any other mods that use/alter the dialog.tlk file make sure to install this one last, this way you prevent it from breaking storywise. I wouldn't recommend this mod for a 1st playthrough, otherwise why wait to be a Jedi? Will use this mod ALLWAYS

Absolutely required for any KOTOR run in my opinion. The average blaster is absolute trash even compared to a bog standard shortsword. The fact that this mod takes the changes that Obsidian made in KOTOR 2 and adds them to KOTOR 1 makes blasters somewhat more palatable in the beginning, which is fantastic for characters like Carth and Mission, who are pretty much perfectly geared for blasters.

Well, you're absolutely right. That scene will never feel the same without this mod installed! So lucky just barely get my feet wet in the Lower City on my current playthrough- and without second thought, I downloaded and install this awesome mod minutes after its release! Lol. All said and done - Permanent spot in the mod list has been filled.

Files work great, and voice clips are very clear! Absolutely worth the download and should be used together with Darth Parametric's Head Ports!

I love the new robes, the textures look great! Cloaked robes look far better than the original robes I think. TSL definitely had better robes. Another permanent addition to my override. 10/10!

Hello Revanator. First off, thank you for this mod. I always felt Saul's pistol was far too underwhelming and you've found a great way of improving it without making the already tough Leviathan fight more difficult. The only problem I have with this mod is that you receive Saul's pistol from the Dark Jedi group on Tatooine, possibly long before you even come near the Leviathan. If you could simply remove this item from that Dark Jedi's inventory (since I assume, even though the version he carries in the vanilla game is weaker, it's probably still the same file, lemme know if I'm wrong on that front though) that would be much appreciated and would more than earn a 5/5 from me. One other thing I might change is giving the gun a x3 crit multiplier (and maybe lowering the damage a bit in response if you think it's too good, especially because of how the raw damage compares to Cassus Fett's Heavy Pistol). Right now, it's still mathematically better to use Master Rapid Shot compared to Master Sniper Shot, and frankly, that's just unbecoming of a quote-unquote Sith Assassin Pistol, you know? Update in Comment #7. Update: Simply renaming the file to g_w_hldoblstr004 will allow it to work properly. Great job on this. Review updated to a 5.

I just want to say great work and thank you for making such an enjoyable mod for my favourite game of all time! Its been a long time since I played a Kotor mod that aimed to continue the story of the first two games. I'm excited for future episodes. Also, I realize any critiques I mentioned are all things that take a ton of time and effort to accomplish so please don't think I don't have respect for what was done with this mod. Critiques: 1) I am a little baffled at the decision for secondary and even background characters to get voice overs but some main story characters get none. Makes it feel less polished. It would be nice for all the companion characters, main story line characters and the council to be voiced. I get its a mod but with something that is so story driven it just makes me feel less invested having to read a lot of the dialogue. 2) I would love to have seen some new feats/powers be added. Maybe ones that are specific to the player character, maybe based on species/Jedi class combination. I know there are attribute changes based on which species you chose so more depth there would be really interesting. We have all likely played Kotor 1&2 multiple if not hundreds of times and having new options for building your characters would make the experience feel more like a 3rd game rather than a mod. 3) Last critique, the movies being in original quality is really jarring. Not sure if this is something I can edit with an HD movie mod (compatibility issue?) but I was expecting more custom cut scenes like the establishing shot of Corellia which sure isn't a Hollywood quality cut scene but man it shocked me how well that looked compared to some of the low res movies used elsewhere, which were just cuts of the original movies. Now what I liked: 1) The story is REALLY good. The writing particularly is impressive here. I almost want this to be two different likes but ill keep it in one. Is there some broken or sometimes meaningless dialogue? Yes, but its definitely on the lesser side compared to the really well crafted dialogue and story. Clearly lots of time and meticulous work went into both writing and story. I was interested from the moment I started playing. Without spoiling the plot, it fits almost seamlessly into the period after the Jedi Civil War/Dark Wars and those events. The Republic and Jedi Order are rebuilding and the Galaxy has to learn how to trust both again. We even get a familiar choice, allowing us to decide some of the events of the previous games to set up the story beats in this mod. Very well done. 2) The way you populated the worlds, its just great. One of my biggest gripes with vanilla Kotor is how empty the worlds feel at times. Obviously this was due to hardware limitations back in the day and not being able to have hundreds of NPCs running around who you can interact with. But great job making cities like Corellia and others really populated. 3) Love being able to play as aliens. I always thought it was silly that you couldn't play as aliens in vanilla Kotor. So a really nice touch adding them. also the number of head models is great too! 4) Kinda surprised by how seamless this was to install. I would have expected a mod of this nature to require more hands on install but you did fantastic work here. 5) Music was good. Smart use of other Star Wars tracks but the custom music doesn't feel out of place whatsoever. I will say some track give me late 90s early 2000s MMO music vibes but I find that charming so I'm cool with it. There is much more about the mod I could talk about but I think my ramble sums up my most pertinent opinions. Really great work and I am super excited for more! I gave 4/5 stars simply because I think this mod has SOO much potential. I'm hoping when its all finished that the community looks at this mod with the same regard as TSLRCM. I think it can be that good. Also, if anyone knows compatibility for mods like HD movies, HD UI, Modern FOV and so on, please comment saying so. I went in just with this RoR for the best compatibility possible.

There's a lot in here you'd expect from a Kotor total conversion mod. Very happy with what you guys have put out. It basically feels like this was made for me. Specific items I liked: Green dialogue + Corellian flags (small thing, but visually appealing) News holos (In ideas I've had for a TC mod, I have considered doing exactly this same thing in the same way) Togruta in the main menu (I have experimented with porting Togruta heads from SWTOR) Dialogue barks in the Corellian merchant square (Whoever was in charge of this did a seriously fantastic job) The first cutscene! Ronto quest Animations in dialogue The voice of a certain Duros Canon and Non-Canon options (ignoring the Revan novel but leaving things open for the possibility of SWTOR is exactly how I would do a K2 TC) Overall positives: It WORKS. Area transitions. Containers. NPCs. Objects. Just about everything that allows interaction actually responds. The reskins, module editing, and in particular the prop placement are done very well. Everything is cohesive. It doesn't feel scattered, disjointed, mismatched, etc. (In particular it appears the Iziz sky ramp models were removed from re-used Iziz modules, which if I saw correctly is a good example of what I'm talking about. The King's chamber, with all its props/objects, looks distinctly different from Talia's palace, too.) The concept of the story and the writing. Padawan assisting in an investigation. The lore of KOTOR era sources is taken into account and obviously appreciated in a way that it wasn't in SWTOR (Mentioning Tol Cressa, the situation in the Gordian Reach, the situation on Duro, the Exar Kun war, the aftermath of the JCW, etc.) Species-specific stats and dialogue Stat-relevant dialogue options Functioning quests Gripes (not particularly important, observations you may or may not take into account): Dialogue could use another couple passes to correct spelling mistakes, but also to tighten it up. Some lines could be improved simply by removing a word or two. Once in a while, characters will just talk a little too long. This isn't to say the dialogue overall is poor, but that it is in a decent state and could be made excellent. Bao-Dur, Quan Drayen, and Nessa at Esbek in particular Bao-Dur is pretty close to sounding right. There's a handful of things that felt like they were phrased out of character. Sometimes it feels like Quan Drayen is hitting me over the head and telling me I'm playing a video game. "A companion, if you will" (This one was amusing, but I think the rest of the things he said like this were not) Nessa repeatedly says "hubby" and it rips me right out of the experience. I get what kind of character she's supposed to be. It still seems out of place. Speaking of husbands, there is a woman in the cantina who refers to her "partner", and in the context of a lot of these characters being involved with the CEC, it is confusing if she means business partner or husband at first. Cut back on "Agrilat" just as an example. I think the husband in Esbek says something about his work "sinking in the Agrilat swamps". Drop the Agrilat. It's cleaner. Are the re-used Iziz modules supposed to take place in Coronet? I recall an area transition for "Corellian Merchant Square", which feels vague. It took me probably 10 to 15 minutes of running around to figure out there was an area trigger for the damaged speeder out in the swamps. The journal did mention the speeder, so I was able to figure it out eventually, but it wasn't clear to me the speeder was blocking the specific path I was supposed to go down. I thought at first maybe the mod was broken and I was supposed to enter a non-interactable door I had found. The PC interjecting about Revan in the King's chamber felt very forced. There seems to be no reason for the PC to think that, especially considering the way Drayen chides the PC for not paying attention to their studies. I have to talk to the bouncer to enter the cantina on Corellia, which triggers the same dialogue every time from Drayen about my decision-making. Anyway, I'm familiar with how much work this all is. I've played with Holocron Toolset, KLE, KBlender, K-GFF, etc. I only bring up gripes to possibly help hone the final product. I'm really impressed, really enjoyed playing. I've said before I have been following since I was a kid lurking on LucasForums, so it's really great to finally see this release. Thanks so much for sharing with us and keep up the great work!

Playing through episode 1 felt incredibly nostalgic, it was as if I opened up an old save on Kotor and experienced a brand new chapter. Here are some of my take away's from the mod: 1. The devs used clever use of reskin's to existing and ported levels. While I do hope to see newer areas in future episodes (i.e. using cut modules from Kotor 1, Sleheyron, or even M4-78 ), the level design in the opening chapter was well executed and enjoyed exploring the content in these areas. 2. I particularly enjoyed the difficulty in the combat. Unlike previous games, it made me utilize consumables rather than continuing to spam Flurry on repeat. 3. Side quests were incredibly done and the inclusion of skill checks was impressive. Love the evolution of this from Kotor 2. 4. I really enjoyed how the story unfolds as it begins with a simple Jedi mission surrounded by intrigue to a more complex narrative. There are a few critiques I have with the writing (particularly the epilogue) but it is a great foundation that had me glued to the PC till I completed. 5. Music felt very much like Star Wars but more subdued. Use of existing tracks also were placed well, hopefully a few of the ambient themes from Kotor 1 can make an appearance in future expansions! Cant wait to hear more of the original tracks as episodes release. Glad to see you back at the helm @Logan23! Its great to see your work over the years, the passion from you and the team truly does come through in this release.

I just got done with my first run and like the others said it's a big step up from the old demo. I made a few notes while I was playing episode 1. 1.While I do miss parts of the old demo soundtrack especially the combat track (though I think I hear parts of it in one of the new ambient tracks) the new music is very good too. 2. It feels like we had more dialogue options in old demo though on the other hand there are more skill check options which I like. I also really like the addition of class dialogue too. 3. It would be nice once they are balance to the dev's team likeing that the species effects are listed somewhere outside the game. 4. I think there should be a side quest or two on Coruscant maybe serving as a quick optional tutorial to new or old players who haven't played in a while 5. The loading screens look great and both Coruscant Jedi Temple and Corellia looks good both in the retextures and imported object density. I especially love the colors of the plants in the Corellia jungle 6. I'm happy that you kept in the choice about the pc homeworld from the old demo however small of a thing it is. 7. I had a bit of a bug with the Exile gender. I picked female and Bao-Dur kept calling the Exile him. 8. I love how many different groups that are part of the story so far. 9. There was some hard fights though nothing that took me more then two tries. I was playing on difficult so I view this as a good thing. Both KOTOR were a bit too easy even on the highest difficulty. I have not tried the new difficulty options yet 10. I love the character models for the main villains

Decent enough to continuously use it. My biggest complaint is going in completely blind without knowing what has been exactly changed (I only assumed what was changed.) which I do not like. Spoilers on what the mod changes: 4/5 stars. I'd prefer to use this over the skip peragus mod, but I think some things should be changed to further improve the mod. My main feedback points: Other than that, the mod is in a decent state and has shortened Peragus enough in a considerable amount

After recently returning from long hiatus, 2 years since last time I played KOTOR, I love seeing all the add-ons. It really brings KOTOR to life. Thank you. 🙂

thank fucking god

Another gem by JCarter426, one of the most influential K1 modders still in activity. I read about a possible remake of KotOR game and while I would be very interested in it, I doubt it could ever amount to what KotOR is today thanks to the quality contributions made to it by the community, whose best representatives turned an originally excellent game into a true masterpiece.

The days of screenshotting my inventory screen then adding the items back in KSE are finally over!

Downloaded it and this looks pretty damn solid. Nice work! Were you using DarthParametric's War Droid Reference Switch for the screenshots? Because those look like Sithspecter's rifles in the droid's hands.

Not only does it look good, it gives me a fair warning when I'm about to get obliterated on impossible difficulty (curse the need to stay under-leveled on Taris!). XD

This is exactly the kind of mod I've been looking for! A proper reworking of the Class Outfits without changing them extensively.

Thank you very much for making this. This tool is a lifesaver for modding audio files for the KotOR games, because now we no longer need to go through the hassle of hex editing each file manually just to be able to play and edit the audio, and then make them readable by the games.

Maybe tone down the teeth a bit in the white balance and personally I would just take out the hair. That said, rounded off, still 5/5. This is amazing work.

It's such a quiet thing--to fall...From rags to even lesser rags. It's such a subtle change this, I hardly noticed it at all at first but it works!

This is an amazing Idea that I'm surprised hasn't been done until now. 🔵Light Point Gained🔵

May I suggest using the attached file instead? It uses 2DAMEMORY entries in changes.ini, to keep things compatible with already modded files. Edit: You should also have vanilla 2da files in the tslpatchdata folder. The ones in here have the mod applied to it, they are used to create the backup files and this way that doesn't work correctly. changes.ini 5/5 if you fix that

I like this mod, I play it with every time, but I docked this one star because, despite my love of this mod and what it does, currently two of the Bastila files causes bugs: p_bastilla001.utc and p_bastill002.utc. 001 causes the bug where she is invisible during the interrogation on the Leviathan, and 002 causes the black-screen bug after finishing the Unknown World (light-side) and crashes the game upon playing the cutscene. Until it's fixed, be warned when installing this mod. It plays fine if you remove the two .utc files.

I have this in my current playthrough and it is amazing. I like that it takes the best part of the TSL robes while being visually distinct. It's a nice touch that any characters that don't have cloaks match with those that do.

You made Trask Ulgo into an amazing looking character. Also, the Republic Armor never looked more amazing.

Great work. The lights don't take up too much space and help the temple come together. As a suggestion, I'd recommend making the lamps look a bit more "rustic". Perhaps they were just set up by the Sith inside, but corroded metal might fit the theme of the temple better. (Like the bases of these lights in SWTOR)

Interesting mod, lots of potential! Nice voice splicing, by the way. Most of the lines are super recognizable for those that played this game bazillion times, but they're still fun to hear. Although this mod certainly adds to the replay value, at this stage I feel the Genoharadan faction is way too similar to the Exchange. They have the same base of operation and the storylines are directly linked. The new fight sequences and additional dialogues are nice but don't feel particularly refreshing. Completely separating the Genoharadan storyline from the Exchange storyline and change its base of operation to another planet (something like Telos surface military base) could potentially boost replay value. I would suggest adding some motivation for the Exile to go after Genoharadan. Perhaps instead of the Exile being kidnapped, its one of his/her companion like Atton that's kidnapped. And despite Kreia's disapproval, the Exile decides to go after the kidnapper and is lured to another planet for a final confrontation.

This has gave me a headache ever since I first played KOTOR II just as it came out. THANK YOU!

beautiful in move

Colonel, this is Snake. You're pretty good.

Very fun to play through. Writing and voice overs are well done, and the new battles are always welcome. Only Issue I ran into was some of the new Sith troopers dropping everything they had equipped on the star forge, stuff we aren't supposed to see like level 3 droid shields and heavy armor.

The fact that this mod exists shows how fantastic the KOTOR community is to date.

Sweet, sweet karma.

Had tested this masterpiece in-game, and the result is obvious. Splendid! Amazing work- as always, Dark Hope! Thank you, for creating and sharing this amazing piece-of-art! In-game preview:

Amazing! At the first glance I hold off on using this mod because assuming I have Curtis 1973's "Stock Light Saber Retexture Pack" that do the magic already. And I proved wrong. This mod is awesome! I'm using those models inside this mod in conjunction with Curtis 1973's "Stock Light Saber Retexture Pack" and they work like they are the best pairing mods out there! Nuff' said- Thank you VarsityPuppet and Fallen Guardian! P.S not having this installed currently, as I have found my preferences on hilts for the playthrough, but this is a recommended install for ones that likes to retain the vanilla looks of the hilts.
