Two demos in one day! In this one I show, kotor 1 working with more than 256 rows in placeables 2DA (something that previously wasn't possible).

As Squall has said, there is no launcher for the Steam version. You mean this mod? The K2CP mod? That Community Patch? The K1CP should be installed first for Kotor I mods only, the same does not apply to K2CP - the reason for this will be listed down below. K1CP is to be installed first for Kotor I, followed by RC-K1CP the Kotor I restored content mod for that game. TSLRCM is to be installed first for Kotor II, followed by K2CP assuming you aren't using M4-78EP. The reason TSLRCM is installed first is because it was released first, its installer does not use a combability installer like TSLPatcher or HoloPatcher that'll merge conflicting files together. Instead, TSLRCM's installer just copies all of the files into the right places to install the mod. TSLRCM is massive and it changes a lot of things so it wouldn't be feasible to have a compatibility installer. It both restores cut content and fixes hundreds of bugs. Modern mods get around this by making you, the player, install TSLRCM first and our mods afterwards. We make our mods with the objective of being compatible with TSLRCM and K2CP is no different. You install TSLRCM, you launch the game, and you see if the Kotor II logo has been replaced with a new Kotor II logo that says TSLRCM 1.8.6 in-game. That's how you check on Steam.

Steam itself doesn’t present the launcher for the game. It will just launch you straight into the LucasArts and Obsidian movies before being greeted by the main menu.

Another demo, this time showing off some of the Kotor 2 creature stats functions in Kotor 1. A few discoveries during this process: The various "BonusForcePoints" functions kotor 2 implements are going to be non-trivial to implement unfortunately, as Force point calculations are very hard-coded, and I'm not aware of any convenient ways to tip the scales there. `SetBonusForcePoints`, `AddBonusForcePoints`, and `GetBonusForcePoints` are still on the wishlist, they'll just take a bit longer as I patch the FP logic. `Modify<Reflex/Fort/Will>SavingThrowBase` functions are in a similar camp. Anytime the game calls `GetBaseWillSavingThrow` (or related), it live calculates the value based on class level and specific feats. Kotor 2 gets around this by adding an additional field to the creature stats structure that stores a modifier they use in this calculation. So again, these are still on the list, but will require a bit more love to get working than the commands I show off in the demo video All-in-all progress is going well. I'll be cutting another alpha release later, for anyone interested in experimenting. As always please share questions and comments on this effort!
