Iriaz. Another RC-K1CP update is almost ready, and as per tradition I would release an update, add something completely obscure, and then I'll get the endless moaning of "where's the Outcast Children and where are the Iriaz" instead of "wow, I sure do love the restored line from that one NPC I didn't even pay attention to". Well, you can all stop moaning... for now, for one of those things that you guys just love to complain about is actually being added in the next update! But no Outcast Children just yet... But when that update does come out I may or may not announce it with this: So, how do Iriaz work in RC-K1CP? Well, I believe in K1R the Iriaz would walk around the map and follow certain way point directions similar to how some Kath Hounds behave, however, the Iriaz will largely wander around aimlessly as the left over Iriaz .UTC file in the Sandrale Estate exterior module was programmed to do just that. Instead of just "walking around" doing nothing the Iriaz will do something... and it's going to be an absolute bloodbath as you journey across the Dantooine planes now. When you enter a Dantooine module, somewhere in that module there will be Iriaz and Kath Hounds fighting each other. Sometimes an Iriaz may take down a Kath Hound or two, but more often than not the Kath Hounds always wipe out the Iriaz. Of course, that happens without Player intervention. Through Player intervention it can be possible for you to save some of the doomed Iriaz, however, simply standing around and letting the Iriaz get mowed down will in-fact chip down some of the Kath Hounds health so there is some benefit to letting them die. And of course, the Iriaz will also be attacked by Mandalorians. In lore, the Iriaz are docile and can get 'provoked' into aggression, and combined with the pre-existing warrior lore of the Mandalorians it does in-fact make sense for these two groups to be fighting. I have taken measures to try and make sure that Iriaz herds are not too close to Mandalorians so there shouldn't be too many instances of Mandalorians being led away from their group by rogue Iriaz's or something stupid like Sherruk running after an Iriaz and leaving his men to die. Now, K1R does have a bug wherein the Iriaz actually break that one cutscene with the Mandalorian and the "wife and children" bit. I have made it so that the Iriaz in that particular area are hostile to the Player meaning they should not break that cutscene and the Player will be able to kill some of these Iriaz themselves. Again, they are "docile" and not "friendly" and so it makes sense why some would want to kill you when others would rather fight Kath Hounds. There is a bug where the Iriaz stand completely still for about five to ten seconds before their AI kicks in, here is an example of this: Here is when their AI kicks in: And this is the result when the Player lets them die: As you can see, despite being outnumbered the Kath Hounds still win the fight. Since this is near Bolook his line "there are plenty of Iriaz around" now makes sense as you literally either just saw a bunch of Iriaz die or saved them and now they're roaming about nearby. I do not yet have screenshots of the Player being attacked by Iriaz, however, I do plan to add screenshots of restored content for the main mod page so I may add them there when this update is finally ready. Now that the one thing you all wanted is out, time for the obscure garbage no one cares about (this list may not be complete/some of it you may recognize if you ever played my ancient K1GI mod from back in the day/some of it may not be added if I can't get it to work flawlessly): * Restored an unused civilian dialogue for one of the male patrons of the Lower City Cantina. * Restored the "search database for planetary launch codes" option for all the Sith Base terminals, this will always fail as the Governor has them. * The Receptionist Terminal, the Computer Terminal, and the Control Center Terminal now have three unique interactions. The Receptionist Terminal offers almost no real benefits besides upload area schematics. The Computer Terminal offers most functions except for open elevator, disable assault droid shield, and overload power conduit. The Control Center Terminal has every function available. * The Hangar Terminal and the Barracks Terminal now have two unique interactions. The Hangar Terminal has no actual function besides the ability to disable the Hangar Security whilst the Barracks Terminal has all the functions except the ability to disable the Hangar Security. * You can now download the Ebon Hawk codes via the Barracks terminal, allowing you to bypass Hudrow. * Restored the cut door model for Davik's Hangar. * You can now attempt to open the Hangar Bay doors via the terminals in the Prison Block and Command Deck, this'll always fail. * You can now overload the power conduit in the Sith Trooper barracks in the Prison Block, this is an alternative to starting a prison riot and then gassing both the Sith and the prisoners. * You'll now have to unlock the Elevator after rescuing the Player. * The Command Deck terminal will now mention the Bridge lockdown before you login. This'll be removed when you open the Hangar doors and the lockdown is lifted. * You can no longer unlock all security doors on the Command Deck as options to unlock specific doors have been restored. * You can now attempt to open the Bridge Security Door, this'll always fail. * You can now use the Command Deck terminal to discover that you can use a Space Suit to access the airlock to bypass the Bridge Security Door. * You can no longer return to the Prison Block if the Hangar is open. That's all for today, please let me know what you think!

I was going to post an update for the development of RC-K1CP soon, but since JasonRyder commented I'll update you all now. The Unused Head Restoration Pack mod, which hasn't been updated in several years, shall be renamed to the K1 Appearance Restoration Pack to match its Kotor 2 counterpart. The reason this is happening is because most of the appearance restorations from RC-K1CP, mainly the optional ones, are being removed from RC-K1CP and are instead being added to the K1 Appearance Restoration Pack. The reason I am doing this is because they're mostly incompatible with the NPC Diversity Pack mod. The appearances of RC-K1CP are added solely to restore the unused appearances whereas the NPC-DP is a genuine NPC Overhaul. By installing both mods, it is possible that the end result is not one that I personally intended for the player. Whilst these incompatibilities do not break the game in any way, I am certain players would prefer Restored Content and an NPC Overhaul without these two concepts "meshing" with one another. There are also actual incompatibilities that do impact the game, the Sith Officer Uniform Restoration install is incompatible with heyorange's Sith Army Reformation mod and the Jedi Appearance Restoration install is incompatible with Diversified Jedi on the Star Forge if you install that mod before RC-K1CP. Once this update goes ahead, the RC-K1CP will have most of its restored appearances removed. If players want a "pure" restored content game with no NPC Overhauls they can install the K1 Appearance Restoration Pack whereas if they want an NPC Overhaul they can instead download the NPC Diversity Pack. The unique heads for Tanis and the Czerka Rep on Tatooine from the Unused Head Restoration Pack are going to be added in the Galaxy of Faces mod so NPC Overhaul enjoyers will not need the K1 Appearance Restoration Mod if they want those two heads in particular. This update has been delayed to the development of the M4-78 Unofficial Patch mod this year, and whilst I do intend to make something special for ROR this update shall come eventually. And also, Carth's Restored Blaster icon is being removed in that update until it can genuinely be fixed. Whilst I can see why you'd report it as an RC-K1CP bug, this is actually a Sleheyron Story Mode bug in its entirety. K1CP restores the orange Twi'lek variant and RC-K1CP simply borrows that appearance for the fourth Vulkar. This means either one of two things have happened, you either: A) broke your install. B,) the Sleheyron Story Mode mod's installer is broken and therefore it has broken your game. The orange Twi'lek added in K1CP occupies line 509 of the appearance.2da. If @SAO1138 had setup his tslpatcher/holopatcher correctly then a new appearance number would've been assigned to your appearance.2da, the only way his big Gizka would replace the orange Twi'lek added in K1CP would be if Sleheyron's installer hard overwrote the existing appearance.2da with a pre-made one (which is very bad from a modding standpoint). Can you please attach your appearance.2da file here, since the orange Twi'lek should occupy line 509 of the appearance.2da being able to view your appearance.2da should confirm at least part of my suspicion. SAO, if we get to the bottom of this and it turns out that, by some miracle, it isn't Sleheyron Story Mode as I suspect I do apologizing for pinging you here.

I don't know if this is the right place to post this but I found a strange(and hilarious!) bug in the Taris Lower City Cantina. The fourth Black Vulkar that threatens Calo Nord, the orange Twi'lek that speaks Basic, has somehow turned into a giant gizka!
