    Bastila's Sith Holocron strongly implies that she left Korriban to find Revan, here is the full dialogue: Looking at this dialogue, it's somewhat conflicting with what's presented in TOR as what Bastila says here somewhat aligns with what Kreia says about Revan even though what Kreia says about Revan is directly retconned in TOR. The retcon could be explained as Kreia 'projecting' her own views onto Revan, though what Bastila says here will inevitably have to be explained in the ROR mod. I have a feeling the answer as to what Revan's "technique of mass conversion" is is probably explained in the half hour lore-dump that is the Enclave scene. Another bit of useful Dark Side Bastila lore is what she says to T3-M4: Using both the Sith Holocron and T3-M4, we can assume that Revan left his Sith Empire around 3954 BBY. Without the strong, unifying leader that is Revan, the Sith started fighting one another for control of the Empire. The Sith who remained were too weak to control the Star Forge, thus rendering it useless for producing new ships. Bastila appears to be somewhat aware of the threat of the "True Sith" on Dromuund Kaas and so instead of dying in the Sith Civil War she set out to look for Revan. It can be assumed that an alternative version of the Revan novel took place where, between Kotor I and Kotor II, Darth Revan, T3-M4 and Canderous went to Rekkiad and found Mandalore's Mask. After leaving Canderous behind, Darth Revan and T3-M4 took the Ebon Hawk to Nathema where they were shot down by Darth Nyriss and Scourge. After capturing Darth Revan, T3 was left alone on Nathema and spent years repairing the Ebon Hawk so that he could return to the known galaxy. By the time he had finished his repairs, it was 3951 BBY... just in time for the events of Kotor II. And just like in the Light Side ending, Bastila gave T3 the orders as stated above - "If he leaves, he will take you with him - but not I. He knows the bond we share may prove a weakness... but he will take you. If something happens, T3, then I need you to return to the Republic and find me. And if you cannot, then I need you to seek whatever help you can elsewhere, whether Jedi or the Sith... or someone in-between." It is possible that Bastila became privy to Revan's actual plans, Goto and Disicple both speak of Malak as a conquering brute whereas Revan's agenda seems to have run deep and alluded them both. It is possible that Bastila left Korriban to find Revan, she might've found Nathema, though she did not find the True Sith who had captured Revan and so, as she ordered T3, had returned to the Republic as they were the only ones with the capacity to stop the True Sith now. And as I've probably discussed in the diary, only Carth would've known of the full extent of Bastila's betrayal if Revan was Dark Sided. It makes no difference whether Revan and Light Side or Dark Side as Bastila was technically a Sith in both endings, one has her redeemed and save the day and the other has her "redeemed" years later (Again, only Carth would know of the full extent of Bastila's betrayal so everyone else is oblivious to her past). Logan wants "replayability" with the ROR mod, you see that sort of thing with the player species and you'll see it here with Revan and Exile's gender and alignments wherein what you set impacts the story of past characters. In the case of Bastila, we can assume her thoughts and motivations towards the end of the mod will differ based on these factors. At the start of Drayen's dialogue in the Jedi Temple the player asks Drayen how his trip to Dantooine was to which Drayen directly mentions Luur Jada by name. As to what extent, I cannot say, but I can say he will make a cameo one way or another beyond this name drop.

    Yeah I did exactly that and got it all back to normal. I did forget to say that after I did it as it was getting late. Thanks.

    Reinstall everything from scratch, from what I remember the HoloPatcher automatically created uninstaller doesn't account for everything.

    A small update on something I have been working on over the past few days. Currently this all resides in a folder called "Korriban Expansion Works" The modders resource is intended for anyone that wishes to add the Library & Teachers Quarters rooms from TSL to the first game, the rubble has been removed and an empty level is included that just contains the assets that are present in the second game so they can be used as reference. I added the missing beds to the teachers quarters and the spotlights under the doors to both rooms and made a number of small edits to the models. There are a few small changes, such as the computers not being broken and each placeable now uses a string from the first games dialog.tlk ( Bag, Computer, Door, Footlocker ) as does the map note waypoint. I have of course also added these areas to the port of KotOR1 and have plans to make use of them eventually. As well as that I spent quite a while editing the visibility file after finding quite a few different spots from which you could see that rooms appeared or disappeared in both K1 and TSL. I am surprised that these made it into the game. There are quite a few more as well, but they can only be noticed from a long distance. I also spent a number of hours editing the minimap and correcting a sizing error present in the original mini map. I created a fixed version of the minimap for K1 as well which doesn't include the extra rooms, turns out some of the rooms are slightly out of line with the player so I tinkered with the map pixel by pixel until I could run around the edge of the entire level and everything felt right. On top of all this I fixed a few geometry errors where there were holes in walls or extra faces that weren't visible in both the TSL version of Korriban and the K1 version and added the spotlights under the doors to the two new rooms. This area didn't have any geometry at all so there was just a hole in the wall which was clearly visible when walking through this hallway. Here are some more screenshots showing the changes. Finally I have cleaned up a load more files that didn't need to be in the port or main portion of the project. Every step forwards is a step closer to completion, I know most people want me to get a move on and populate the areas with content, but I don't want to rush anything, I want to get the foundations laid and free of issues, expand upon and fix whatever I can and then set about adding new content. There is also the matter of making a functional launcher that includes a save importer and allows easy access to all of the relevant functions and is capable of launching both games, at the moment a basic launcher is included with the GitHub version and works but doesn't implement the save importer functions. Still looking for people to join the team, so if you have any modding experience with the games or just want to help out by testing, feel free to reach out to me. The modders resource version of this will be available as soon as it's authorised. I have also submitted Mobile M478EP and Mobile Coruscant. I think that's everything.
