While I have always logged into Deadly Stream and Nexus Mods regularly to check if my mods receive any new comment or bug report, July-August 2022 marks my busiest period in working on KotOR mods since developing and releasing my KotOR 2 same-gender romance mods in 2016-2017. (Having lots of free time certainly helps) Throughout the past couple of weeks, the things I have done in modding KotOR include: Updating my Kreia reskin mod by converting the files from TGA to TPC. Updating my TSL Improved Party Outfits by updating the inventory icons with rendered textures of the party members' outfits, instead of using cropped images from screenshots. Developing and releasing KotOR 1 Improved Party Outfits, my first new mod since 2018, on my 30th birthday no less. Developing and releasing a new same-gender romance mod: Carth Onasi and Male PC Romance. Supplying new bug fixes to the KotOR 1 Community Patch on its GitHub repository. Those bugs were related to Carth's romance that I discovered when I was working on my Carth and male PC romance mod. My Carth romance mod also includes those bug fixes. Updating my KotOR 2 same-gender romance mods by restructuring the installation process and setting up TSLPatcher to patch relevant dialogue files instead of replacing dialogue files, in order to improve compatibility with other mods. Updating my PartySwap and Extended Enclave Compatibility Patch since at long last, I finally figured out how to make Disciple appear on the Ebon Hawk during Extended Enclave's expanded Rebuilt Jedi Enclave sequence, if both Disciple and Handmaiden are recruited as party members. This fix is also included in the compatibility patch from my Handmaiden and Female Exile - Disciple and Male Exile Romance mod. [August 13 Update] Updating my Darth Revan Texture for Star Forge Robes by upscaling the texture and convert the texture files from TGA to TPC. [August 13 Update] Making two mods that give named NPCs unique appearance by utilizing assets from SpaceAlex's K1 Enhancement Pack modder's resource: Belaya's Unique Look and Human Xor Unique Look. This has been my most eventful period when it comes to working on KotOR mods since the development and releases of my KotOR 2 same-gender romance mods, but it is worth it.

Hello, everyone. It has been much longer than usual, mainly because I did not have a computer that could run the KOTOR games for over a year. I am easing back into things now, but because it's been so long, I've forgotten much of what I had intended to work on. If you would like to see a particular update for any of my mods, or if you have a request for a mod that seems like something I'd do, please let me know. Lately, much of my time has been spent finding things to do, so I am all ears. Mod Updates Korriban: Back in Black for K1 – Fixed a typo that resulted in Jorak Uln having the wrong color robes. Fashion Line I: Cloaked Jedi Robes for K1 – I guess the previous version had the wrong files for PFBIM? I don't remember... Vision Enhancement for K1 – Added a fix for the "Cut Start" bug. Romance Enhancement: Biromantic Bastila for K1 – Corrected some gender checks that made Bastila say the wrong lines. Also added some VO that was missing. VO Fix for K2 – Converted audio and confirmed that it now definitely works with the Aspyr update. Sound Effects for K1 – Converted audio files with SithCodec. Feat Fixes for K2 – Added a bunch more feats that seemed denied to certain classes for no reason, corrected prestige class proficiencies, and added a fix for the droid feat gain swap for the heck of it even though TSLRCM already fixes it. New Mods Romance Enhancement: Pan-Galactic Flirting for K1 – Removes several gender checks throughout the game, allowing players of any gender to flirt with the affected NPCs. Sound Effects for K1 – A port of the previously existing mod for K1 to K2. Modding Tools SithCodec – Rewrote most of the code to be cleaner and follow better practices. The biggest improvement resulting from this is that SithCodec will preserve folder hierarchies. KOTOR Case Fixer – A simple tool that recursively iterates through a directory and converts all paths to lowercase. This corrects some problems with mods on Unix-based operating systems that are case sensitive. Something Completely Different @Leilukin, who previously made several romance mods for KOTOR 2, has released a Carth Onasi and Male PC Romance mod for KOTOR 1. This is something I had thought about when working on my romance mods, but I didn't want to tackle it because I expected Carth's romance to require more dialogue editing than Bastila's. I'm glad somebody decided to make this option possible, and I'm interested in seeing how they handled the dialogue when I get a chance to try it. Good job!

As a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community and a player and modder of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic series, I would be remiss if I do not compile a list for the same-gender romance mods for the KotOR series throughout the games' modding history. Here is the list of same-gender romance mods for the KotOR series. The listed mods are categorized by which KotOR game the mods were made for, sorted by the mods' original release dates in chronological order. This list was compiled to be a resource and archive, aimed especially at fellow LGBTQ+ players of the KotOR series who want to make their KotOR games more gay. Happy gayming! [UPDATE September 20, 2022] The list is now also available on my own website.
