Logical Datapads by Sdub & ebmar Version: 1.0.0 Description: One thing KOTOR seems to have is an almost endless supply of datapad items. Oh, but what are they called? Oh well “Datapad” of course. I was inspired by TSL for this mod as this is not a problem in TSL. What many people and especially new players don’t know is that the Datapad items are there sometimes to give hints to quests or flesh out the lore, Hell one of them straight up GIVES you the solution, but it’s lost in a sea of “Datapads”. After talking with @ebmar who is much more experienced with the TSL Patcher liked my idea and was onboard, I immediately got to work on new titles. I did my best to have them make sense in context and situation they are acquired. This modifies Datapads and Journal Items. (Which are really all datapads) I hope you enjoy, please let me know if you have any problems. I did my best to test it as much as I could. I did not encounter any issues. You will need to start a new game to see this mod work correctly. One final thing to note, this mod was made with widescreen mods in mind, I am unsure how it will respond to the normal aspect ratio. Installation: Run TSLPatcher.EXE and locate your swkotor folder Compatibility: Will not be compatible with anything that modifies existing datapad .UTI files K1R Compatible: Yes Tools Used: TSL Patcher ChangeEdit KOTOR Tool xoreos-tools Big thanks to the KOTOR Modding Discord!

A simple armband utility mod that I made for my own use when testing K1CP, because I was constantly annoyed at party members lagging behind and preventing me from transitioning to the next module. When activated it jumps the other two party members to the current party leader (i.e. whoever is using the armband). I figured other people might have a use for it as well. Installation: Run INSTALL.exe to install the mod. Add dp_ptyhrd_arm to your inventory via console or KSE. Equip to one of your armband inventory slots and activate by selecting it in the utility item slot in the UI (as you would a shield or adrenal). Credits: Icon taken from The Old Republic (and sloppily upscaled).

It's finally here! At last, The Sith Lords Restored Content Modification 1.8.6 has been successfully ported to the original Xbox. The game is now able to be fully completed from beginning to end with zero major issues. This upload is in the form of patched files that must be added on top of an existing installation of the mod. Requirements -An original Xbox capable of launching homebrew (soft or hardmodded) -Some method to transfer files between your Xbox and PC (FTP is recommended) -At least 5GB of space on your Xbox's HDD -A physical copy of Knights of the Old Republic II for the Xbox Installation 1. IMPORTANT! If you have previously dumped the first Knights of the Old Republic game to your Xbox, ensure that you change the folder it's located in from its default ("StarWars") to any other name. If you do not do this, both games will end up dumped into the same folder, ruining both installations 2. Use UnleashX to dump your game disc to your Xbox's HDD. Other methods of dumping the game may be possible, but I can only promise it works using UnelashX 3. FTP the entire game folder to your PC, and create an additional backup of it on your PC in the event you need to restart the installation 4. Run the official TSLRCM 1.8.6 installer .exe, which you can find here: https://deadlystream.com/files/file/578-tsl-restored-content-mod/ 5. Specify the Xbox dump of the game as the folder to which the mod should be installed. (i.e. D:\Games\SWKotOR2\). When in doubt, it's the folder with "default.xbe" located inside it 6. Delete the following files from the newly created Override folder: 235TEL.lyt, 235TEL.vis, 235TELA.mdl, 235TELA.mdx, and 235TELA.wok, 7. Delete every .tga file from Override 8. [IF YOUR XBOX DOES NOT HAVE THE 128MB RAM UPGRADE] Delete 601DAN.mod from Modules 9. Extract the contents of the Clean Install Package into the root game folder, overwriting any files if asked 10. Delete the original, unmodified rip of KotOR II on your Xbox's HDD 11. FTP the modified KotOR II back to your console in a location of your choosing 12. Verify your install. In semi-rare cases, files may become corrupt during the transfer process. Compare the amount of bytes the game folder takes up on both your Xbox and your PC. If there is a mismatch, either repeat the transfer and compare again or simply narrow down which folders on the Xbox don't match the PC equivalent To update from 1.0 or 1.1 to 1.2: 1) Delete any file that starts with "003ebo..." from Override 2) Extract the "Update from 1.0 or 1.1" install package into the game directory, overwriting any files if asked Known Issues -The Battle of Khoonda currently does function on stock consoles and requires a 128MB RAM upgrade to work properly. The restored version of this sequence spawns so many NPCs that it causes the stock Xbox to choke to death on its own assets within seconds of the battle starting, so step 8 of the installation instructions remove the module file that adds the battle. If you would like to see this happen (not recommended) or have an upgraded Xbox, simply don't delete 601DAN.mod from the Modules folder. -On very rare occasions, a significant performance drop may occur during combat that passes after a few seconds. This may or may not be an issue with the Xbox version and may or may not be related to Jedi Guardian characters not currently controlled by the player initiating a Force Jump, but it's so uncommon that diagnosing it is difficult. If you would like to contribute to fixing the last few remaining issues, feel free to DM me and I will be happy to implement your fixes in a future update. Frequently Asked Questions: Will this work on Xbox 360/Xemu/Xbone/Xbox Series S/X? The short answer is that I don't know. I don't have any of that gear to test with, but anything that's capable of launching a game rip shouldn't have any issues. I make no promises, though. Why does the installation require deleting so many files? Is there content missing from the mod? The only content from TSLRCM that hasn't made it into this port for stock Xboxes is the battle of Khoonda (contained in 601DAN.mod) since it spawns more NPCs than the Xbox can handle. If your Xbox has a 128MB RAM upgrade, this content is available and fully functional (Thanks to Hellraiser988 and iroiry) Every other removed file is redundant. The .tga files have all been converted to .txb and resized to work on Xbox, and the 235TEL files in Override have been consolidated into their own .rim files in the rimsxbox folder and no longer need to be present in Override. Do I have to use UnleashX to rip the game? Not necessarily. However, some methods of dumping Xbox games purposefully leave out some files to conserve HDD space and that could pose an issue. I used UnleashX to dump my own copy and that's what I used to port the mod, so I can guarantee it works. Use other methods of acquiring a dump of the game at your own risk. Will you be porting [insert mod here] to the Xbox? Maybe. It's a decent workload and some mods require a lot more tinkering than others, so it just comes down to what (if any) I'm interested in. Fortunately, if you've managed to dump your copy of KotOR II to your Xbox, you have exactly as much modding experience as I had when I started this project; so feel free to take matters into your own hands. Is there a widescreen patch for the Xbox? Will you make one? As far as I'm aware there is not a widescreen patch for the Xbox version of the game and I have less than zero interest in making one. Play the game in 4:3. It's better that way. I'm experiencing the dialogue skipping bug and/or frequent mysterious game crashes. What do I do? Some files probably got corrupted during the FTP process. It happens sometimes and there's nothing I can do about it. Repeat step 12 of the installation instructions.
