The fact that Juhani from Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is a canon lesbian character is fairly common knowledge among LGBTQ+ fans of Star Wars. However, occasionally I still see people who do not know that the first KotOR game has the very first confirmed gay character in any Star Wars media, including the old Star Wars Expanded Universe; there are some other people who actually believe that Juhani is bisexual. Therefore, as a lesbian and someone who has made mods for the Knights of the Old Republic games and written a detailed Juhani romance guide, I would like to present hard evidence from the game files to point out that Juhani is in fact a lesbian, a woman who is exclusively attracted to women. The most crucial evidence comes from k_hjuh_dialog.dlg, Juhani’s main dialogue file which contains all the conversations covered in my Juhani Romance Guide. If you use KotOR Tool to browse the game files, k_hjuh_dialog.dlg is under KotOR I > BIFs > templates.bif > Dialog. I recommend using DLGEditor to view the .dlg files from KotOR games. Here is a screenshot of my DLGEditor with the most relevant part of the k_hjuh_dialog.dlg file: The highlighted dialogue shown in the screenshot (”I feel I must apologize for the way I acted towards you before, in the grove. It was wrong of me.”) is the beginning of your first personal conversation with Juhani after Juhani joins your party. Here is a video of the conversation in question: As shown in the screenshot above, once you begin this conversation, the script k_hjuh_p17 will fire, and this is the source of the script in question: void main() { int iGender = GetGender(GetPCSpeaker()); if (iGender == GENDER_FEMALE) { SetGlobalBoolean("T_JUHANIROM", TRUE); } } (In KotOR Tool, you can see the source script k_hjuh_p17.nss under KotOR I > BIFs > scripts.bif > Script, Source) As you may have guessed from the above script, k_hjuh_p17 sets the Global Boolean T_JUHANIROM to TRUE if, and ONLY IF, the player character is female. The T_JUHANIROM global is used by the game to check if Juhani’s romance is active or not. In other words, the game activates Juhani’s romance ONLY IF your player character is female, as soon as you start Juhani’s personal conversation after she joins your party. If your player character is male, Juhani’s romance will NOT be activated. Here is the hard evidence from KotOR's game files that Juhani is a lesbian, a woman who is exclusively attracted to women. Juhani is NOT straight. Juhani is NOT bisexual. The game used to have a bug that allowed male player characters to access Juhani’s romance, which is probably why some thought that Juhani is bisexual. However, the bug had been fixed in later patches. By fixing the bug, the game has made sure that ONLY a female player character can romance Juhani. Even though the word “lesbian” or “gay” is never used in any of the KotOR games, it does not change the fact that Juhani is a woman character who can only be romanced by a woman player character, which means Juhani is gay, a lesbian. Furthermore, I have read articles mentioning that Stanley Woo, Juhani's writer, had confirmed that Juhani is gay. Unfortunately, I cannot find the actual source of it. It is likely that Stanley Woo posted about it on the BioWare Social Network forums, but the forums are already offline. In conclusion, Juhani is a canon lesbian character and has always been intended to be such. I would also like to emphasise that I DO NOT support any mods that make Juhani a romance option for male characters under any circumstances, because such mods would be erasing the identity of the very first confirmed lesbian character in any Star Wars media. Not to mention, Juhani is the ONLY confirmed LGBTQ+ character in the entire KotOR series (Belaya from KotOR 1 and Luxa from KotOR 2 are heavily implied to be gay or bisexual, but their sexuality is never confirmed). Please respect LGBTQ+ representation and the identities of canon LGBTQ+ characters.

No. Most of the vanilla textures in the PC version already have it as part of their TXI data. The engine should just ignore anything that isn't valid.

View File K1 Movie-Style Jedi Master Robes K1 Movie-Style Jedi Master Robes A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic Author: N-DReW25 1.1.0 Release Date: 16.02.2022 Installation: Version 1.1.0 adds another variant of the K1 Movie-Style Jedi Master Robes mod, you can now pick between the original "Replace ALL Jedi Robes" variant or the brand new "Replace the Master Robes ONLY" variant. You can only pick ONE variant, you CANNOT have both. * How to install "Replace ALL Jedi Robes" variant. Install JC's Fashion Line I: Cloaked Jedi Robes for K1 1.4 mod first (This mod REQUIRES Cloaked Jedi Robes for K1 to work properly): https://deadlystream.com/files/file/1378-jcs-fashion-line-i-cloaked-jedi-robes-for-k1/ Once you've installed JC's mod, copy the contents of the "For Override" folder and paste it into your swkotor Override folder, overwrite files if necessary. * How to install "Replace Jedi Master Robes ONLY" variant. JC's Cloaked Jedi Robes is NOT required for this variant to work, however, if you do choose to install JC's mod (Or any Jedi Robe mod) then it is recommended to install them BEFORE this variant (And DON’T install the gloveless version of JC’s Cloaked Robes for this one either!). I personally recommend you install the Kotor Prequel Replacement Mod by Kainzorus Prime: https://deadlystream.com/files/file/412-kotor-prequel-robe-replacement/ The way this variant works is that it replaces the Revan Robes 2DA slot with the Movie-Style Robes, this allows players to use the Prequel Replacement mod/JC's Cloaked Jedi Robes or even the vanilla Jedi Robe model ALONGSIDE the Movie-Style Jedi Master Robes. To install this variant, double click the TSLPatcher.exe and let the TSLPatcher do its magic! Afterwards, you can also install "Revan patch" to replace the Star Forge/Revan Robes with disguise items that convert the player into Revan, this is a temporary fix until a proper fix can be made in the future. Description: This mod is a K1 port of DeadMan's "Movie-style Jedi Master robes 1.5" mod from TSL. In version 1.1.0, the robe textures are styled as they are in vanilla (Padawan, Knight and Masters robes all having the same Brown, Blue, Red or Black color). This might change in later versions of the mod depending on the demand for such. The Qel-Droma Robes recieve a unique texture whilst the Revan/Star Forge Robes do not. If you chose the gloveless installation for JC's Cloaked Jedi Robes mod, then the K1 Movie-Style Jedi Master Robes shall also be gloveless. In version 1.1.0, an alternative installation was added. This installation can be found within "Replace Jedi Master Robes ONLY" and will only give the Jedi Master Robe items a unique Movie-Style Jedi Master Robe model whereas the Jedi Robe/Jedi Knight Robes maintain their vanilla models unscathed. If you install JC's Cloaked Jedi Robes or the Kotor Prequel Replacement Mod beforehand, you could have TSL Padawan robes or Prequel Replacement Robes alongside the Movie-Style JEdi Master Robes! 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: * Alter the Jedi robe texture and/or models. ("Replace ALL Jedi Robes") * Alter the Revan robe texture, models and/or the 2DA slot ("Replace Jedi Master Robes ONLY") * Use S_Female and S_Male files (unless the other mods utilize JCarter's Supermodel Port assets. These edits are necessary to give the player supermodels the bones required for the cloaks to animate.) Permissions: Do NOT claim credit for this mod and do not use assets from this mod without my permission. If you'd like to use assets from DeadMan's mods then he has given permission to every modder to do so, you'll need to ask permission for anything made by Kainzorus Prime. Thanks to: DeadMan for making the original mod for K2 HapSlash for the awesome ep3 Obi-Wan and Anakin models which he made for Jedi Academy Spanki for some great textures which are partially used in this mod Don Kain for allowing DeadMan to include his Movie Jedi Robes Kainzorus Prime for allowing me to use assets from his Prequel Replacement mod for the textures of this mod Bioware for such an amazing game Stoffee for TSLPatcher Fred Tetra for Kotor Tool and everyone who downloads the mod.

I have decided to close this post to further comments, because I had already made my stance on the matter very clear in both the post and the comments. I will not engage with anyone who registers a Deadly Stream account just to argue with me over this post. To anyone who tries to tell me "I'm LGBT myself, and I'm not offended by mods that make gay characters straight", call me "over-sensitive over pixels" and even accuse me of caring more about fictional LGBT characters than real LGBT people, and that "extremists" like me (read: people who are vocal about LGBT-phobia) make LGBT people look bad: Go away with your respectability politics nonsense and stay far away from me. I am far from the only LGBT person who hates mods that turn canon gay characters straight, so do not think you know better than any other LGBT people just because you are "not as over-sensitive" as the rest of us. Also, I am active in my local LGBT community in real life, so do not even dare to assume I do not care about real life LGBT people just because I care about how fictional LGBT characters are represented in media and how they are treated by the audience. I can do both. To any other LGBT people who agree with me and are interested in supporting my mods, feel free so message me or comment on my individual mods to express your appreciation.
