View File Complete Sith Academy [BETA] A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic Author: N-DReW25 1.0.0 Release Date: 14.11.2024 Installation: Simply click on the HoloPatcher.exe, click install and sit back and watch the HoloPatcher do its magic. Description: In the first Kotor game, the Korriban Sith Academy had two inaccessible rooms that were locked behind static doors (meaning you can't interact with them). Throughout the Kotor games, there are many static doors that lead nowhere. These doors exist to imply that the levels are bigger than what they actually are... you just don't get to see the full area. If you were to use mods to open these statics doors, in most cases you will find that there is no room behind these doors as the developers didn't intend for those doors to be opened, the same is true for the Sith Academy's two hidden rooms. In the second Kotor game, you revisit Korriban and get to see the areas you travelled through five years after the first game. Obsidian added two new rooms behind the previously inaccessible doors that led nowhere in the first game, a Library and a Teacher's Dormitory. For over 15 years, player's have known that a Library and Teacher's Dormitory canonically existed behind the static doors of the Sith Academy in the first game but couldn't do anything about it... until now. At the end of 2024, the modder Thor110 ported the Library and Teacher's Dormitory from the second game to the first and released it as a modder's resource. And using this modder's resource, I have made the Complete Sith Academy mod for K1. The Library and the Teacher's Dormitory from the second game has been populated with objects and NPCs to make these areas "fit in" with the visual aesthetics and the environment of the first game. The NPC Tamlen has been moved into the Library whilst the Sith Teacher with Tamlen has also been moved to the Teacher's Dormitory, the dueling Sith Students and the Sith Teacher overseeing them have also been moved to the room outside the Academy to prevent a bug where you can hear the clashing of Lightsabers from inside the Library if they kept in their original location. Sith Students have been added to the Library who study on the computers there, making them inaccessible to the player, and Sith Students have also been added to the Teacher's Dormitory alongside the Sith Teacher already in there. The Footlockers you find in the second game CANNOT be opened, but I have added new Footlockers and other objects you can open to the Teacher's Dormitory alongside a Workbench. You can expect to leave the Korriban Academy with some rare, albeit weak, items you wouldn't have received otherwise. There are no custom made NPCs or side quests added in this mod, I wanted the new rooms to "fit in" with the rest of the game. I know other modders DO intend to make mods that adds the new Academy rooms like this mod, except their mods will have some form of side quest content. If they do develop and release these mods then those mods will probably be incompatible with this mod - when that time comes, you may have to choose between their mod & this mod. Known Bugs: If you click on the Sith Students on the computers too much, they stop doing their "typing" animations. This mod shouldn't have any bugs but if you find any please report them to me on Deadlystream. Incompatibilities: To be added! Permissions: Please speak with me if you wish to use this mod in your mod. Alternatively, you can download Thor110's modder's resource and use Holocron Toolset to add your own placeables to the module thus bypassing needing to use my mod as a base. Thanks to: Thor110: For making the amazing Sith Academy Missing Rooms modder's resource to begin with, without you this mod wouldn't exist!

Hi everyone, This is probably my first topic here about a WIP, so I'm gonna get to it. During my most recent Kotor 2 installation, I remembered that if you enslave Ramana she only gives you money until you get your prestige class, same for the Red Eclipse slavers in TSLRCM. You get 100 credits for each level, so at level 15 you get 1500, but then once you get a prestige class, you no longer get any money because the script keeps checking your base class level, not your total character level. So a level 16 character with a level 1 prestige class gets 0 credits instead of 1600. I've always wanted a mod to change this but I never found one so today I just went for it and tried to do it myself, and I did it. I made two versions: Option 1 makes it so that you keep getting money after your prestige class. I changed the scripts so it checks for both your base class level and prestige class level, adds them together, and uses that number to calculate the amount of credits you get. Normally, the script only checks for base class level. Option 2 is a bit of a cheat, made for people who want to maximize their profits. If you want to get the most money out of Ramana, you need to check back every level because the game doesn't keep track of levels you missed. So if you don't collect your reward at level 10, and level up to 11, you will lose the 1000 credits you would get from level 10. I'm not good enough to rewrite the script to make it keep track of levels missed, so I came up with a workaround. With Option 2, Ramana will give you money based on T3M4's level and the Red Eclipse will give you money based on HK47's level. In other words, you can freely level up the Exile as much as you want and not have to worry about missing out on credits - as long you keep holding levels for T3 and HK. This also has another advantage, since the two scripts use different characters, you don't need to go back and forth between Nar Shaddaa and Telos every time you level up to maximize profits, you can collect all the money for all of T3's levels on Telos, then move to Nar Shaddaa and do the same for HK. T3 and HK were perfect because as droids they don't get second classes, and you get them both early... and I rarely use them to begin with, so holding their levels for maximum profit is not a problem. Only downside is that you need them in your party to collect the credits, so you won't get any money until you have them. I have one problem though, I have no idea how to use the TSLPatcher and Option 2 won't work without it because the "c_global_lt_lev.ncs" script needed to be changed to accomodate both HK and T3. So the only way Option 2 works is if you inject the files into the 207TEL and 306NAR modules directly. I can use ErfEdit for this easily but an installer would be nice. I was hoping someone could make one for the files for me. I've attached a zip file with everything, including the source files and instructions on what goes where. I've tested the files with Ramana and they work but I haven't had the chance to test them with the Red Eclipse or HK yet. However, given how similar the scripts are, there shouldn't be any issues but if you do find something, let me know. If anyone could help with this, I'd appreciate it and also, feel free to use what I made in your own mod if you want to. Ramana Red Eclipse money fix.zip
