Yes, the pilots are there. The map fix mod is for the mini map, so it works correctly with wide-screen resolution. Without the fix, you appear off the map.

I followed the instructions here to get wide-screen support -> http://pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Star_Wars:_Knights_of_the_Old_Republic_II_%E2%80%93_The_Sith_Lords
