View File M4-78EP Unofficial Patch THE SITH LORDS RESTORED CONTENT MOD ADD-ON: M4-78EP Unofficial Patch 1.0 1. Description: ---------- One of the most ambitious Kotor II mods is also one of its most controversial. The M4-78 Enhancement Project, or M4-78EP, was the culmination of years of hard work to restore the legendary Droid Planet of M4-78 back into Kotor II, however, the first releases of M4-78EP was plagued by two critical issues which gave the mod a bad reputation. 1) A mix of low-quality, amateurish voice acting and bizarre Droid filter choices. 2) Crippling lag in the Industrial Zone. Updates 1.3 and 1.5 of the M4-78EP were intended to fix these two issues. The majority of the Droid VO is now reasonably competent for a fan mod and the lag in the Industrial Zone was fixed, however, these updates also added more problems which simply replaced the old issues with new issues. 1) The teleportation mechanic during the Radiation section was controversial with some players. 2) The removal of the side quest “Termination Required” during the Radiation section was controversial with some players. 3) Removal of content was unfinished in some places. The Security Droid trio which was removed spill spawn during the Radiation section and could be found if you ran backwards in the Industrial Zone before clearing the Radiation. 4) Kaah’s new dialogue in ES-05’s Archon Chamber was amateurishly written when you compare it to the old dialogue. 5) Having Vash and possibly Kaah be killed by the weak Sith Assassins you mow down throughout the game was hardly seen as an improvement over the old ending. 6) In the attempt to fix the lag an important placeable was deleted which prevented the side quest “Fixing Droids” from being completed. This mod, the M4-78EP Unofficial Patch, is the work of a coalition of modder’s who have come together to fix M4-78 to improve the new content added in updates 1.3 and 1.5 whilst restoring the much beloved features which were removed in those updates from update 1.2. Please consult the “Features.txt” file for a full changelog of changes made to M4-78EP 1.5. Please note the following: Whilst M4-78EP 1.5 has language support for English and Russian the M4-78EP Unofficial Patch is ONLY SUPPORTS ENGLISH AT THIS TIME! Whilst M4-78EP 1.5 is available on the Steam Workshop via TSLRCM (English) + M4-78EP (English), the M4-78EP Unofficial Patch ONLY SUPPORTS THE DEADLSYTREAM VERSION OF TSLRCM AND M4-78EP! 2. Installation: ---------- Note: TSLRCM must be installed FIRST, M4-78EP 1.5 must be installed SECOND, and the M4-78EP Unofficial Patch must be installed THIRD, in that PRECISE order, and ALL other mods are to be installed AFTER these three mods. 1. First, you will need to get the most up-to-date version of TSL Restored Content Mod (TSLRCM 1.8.5). It's available for download here: http://deadlystream.com/forum/files/file/578-tsl-restored-content-mod/ Please note that M4-78EP will NOT work AT ALL without TSLRCM. 2. Follow TSLRCM's installation instructions. 3. Once TSLRCM is successfully installed, run M4-78EP.exe. Installer will ask you where you want to install the mod - it should figure out where TSLRCM is installed by itself, so you probably won't need to change that. If, for some reason, the installer shows an incorrect folder, make sure you change it to directory where Kotor II is installed (where swkotor2.exe is located, NOT any of subfolders), same as TSLRCM. 4. If you want to install the “British Female Warning Voice” open the “British Female Warning Voice” and copy the audio files from there into the “tslpatchdata” folder inside the M4-78 Unofficial Patch download and overwrite the existing audio files. Doing this will install the British Female Warning Voice instead of the American Female Warning Voice. 5. Run the HoloPatcher.exe inside the M4-78 Unofficial Patch download, navigate to your Kotor II install folder and click install. Warning: Never run the installer from inside the archive! Always extract the archive onto your hard drive first. 6. While we try our best to make this mod as bug-free as possible, with the many options of KOTOR2 and our small testing team it can happen that bugs, including critical ones, pass through. We will fix them, so check our site for any potential updates and patches. 7. Install any of the included Bonus Addons from the “Bonus Addons” folder that you’d like. Note: If you plan on using Ashton Scorpius’ TSL Better Male Twi'lek Heads mod, install that mod, open the folder “TSL Better Male Twi'lek Compatibility Patch” in the “Bonus Addons” folder, choose between Vanilla Quality and High Quality, and copy the two files from one of these folders and place them into your Override folder. 8. Install any other compatible mods you desire now. 4. Uninstall ---------- Not possible. Make sure you backup your Kotor II game folder before installing TSLRCM and M4-78EP 1.5 to ensure that you can go back and reinstall your mods without M4-78EP 1.5 should you change your mind. 5. Known Issues --------- - When entering 812DRO, the Droid Manufacturing Module, the side quest Deadly Upgrade reactivates again for unknown reasons should it have already been completed. - Whilst the shadow of the Droid Construction Boss model, L5-65’s model, was fixed I suspect it has a few problems. The Environmental Zone’s Guardian Droid boss fight appears to be doing a T-Stance when Kaah has his final line and, when talking to L5-65, the Droid will “Moon Walk” on the spot without stopping. - The Escort Droid will still teleport you to 810DRO and 811DR (M4-78EP 1.5’s Droid Manufacturing and Research & Development modules) instead of 812DRO which is the new Droid Manufacturing Module made by Thor110 which merges 810DRO and 811DRO into one module. - Kaah Ohtok’s unique death scene if you spare him in the Environmental Archon Chamber and then try to “recruit” him into your Party may not fire properly. If this is the case and it can’t be fixed the option to fake recruit him may be removed, however, do know that this scene not firing should not break your game. 6. Future Plans --------- - Improve Korriban content. - Restore the bonus side quests for HK-47, T3-M4, and G0-T0 during the Radiation section of M4-78. - Rename every single Droid on M4-78 to make Droids easier to identify. For example, instead of “CS-36” he’d be named “Greeter Droid CS-36” and journal entries will specify that detail so that he should stand out amongst the plethora of CS named Droids. - Give every single named Droid a unique texture to make Droids easier to identify. For example, if CS-36 was the only droid that was colored hot pink and the journal entry said he was hot pink it would be easier to identify that Droid. An optional HD pack is also planned for these new Droid textures. - Reword and reorganize certain Droid dialogues so that the dialogue is more consistent with the rest of the game. - Add more Party dialogue interjections throughout M4-78. Some of these could be lifted from other parts of the game, spliced together, or created with AI so that Party members can actually interact with the planet they are on. Do note that Hanharr uses alien VO and can be written to actually talk about M4-78. - Fix the 1.5 content where you could use Bao-Dur to break into the Environmental Zone first before going to the Industrial Zone. - Add more Power Cores. - Revoice Master Vash with a human voice actor, NO AI, and change the ending to allow her to reunite with the others on Dantooine. 7.

The M4-78 Unofficial Patch mod is a mod that players will install after M4-78EP 1.5 to fix all of the bugs found within M4-78EP 1.5, thus allowing you to play the mod from start to finish without getting soft locked due to bugs and/or broken content. As this mod will essentially make the M4-78EP mod viable to play again I am making this thread here in the M4-78 section as this mod is essentially a spiritual 1.6 update. However, as this thread will act as a WIP/Development Thread for a mod which is an addon for M4-78EP I welcome the Admins to move this thread to the WIP section should they deem it necessary to do so. When it comes to cut content, there are a few things we the players yearn for - Sleheyron, Bao-Dur's Sacrifice, Disciple's Holocrons. We yearn for these things because we currently cannot experience these things today as no one has made the mods to restore them yet. Two decades ago, the legendary Droid Planet of M4-78 was part of this list of cut content we once yearned for as it too wasn't made available to us back then. First came the mid 2000s knock-off restorations such as Darth Shan's Droid Planet mod in 2006, followed by Stoney's M4-78 in 2008, followed by the M4-78 Enhancement Project in 2012. When version 1.2 of M4-78EP was released in 2015, it can be seen by many of us today as being the "last" stable version of the mod. You could play it from start to finish, though it had two massive problems: horrible droid VO and agonizing lag in the Industrial Zone. Update 1.3 fixed the droid VO (though it was a Steam Workshop exclusive until 1.5 was released) and update 1.5 fixed the lag in the Industrial Zone (update 1.4 was skipped as the devs forgot which version the mod was on at the time). If you played M4-78EP 1.2 followed by M4-78EP 1.5 today you would appreciate the new VO and the fixed Industrial Zone lag but you'll quickly realize that efforts to fix the mod has made the even more choppier to play than it was before. * The new dialogue on the landing pad's intro cutscene, whilst not being spliced, can be strange at times (as a horribly spliced HK-47 line is still present). * Teleportation during the radiation side quest is ridiculed for being jarring. * Dividing the Industrial Zone into 3 modules is ridiculed as the area transitions are badly done. * The new Kaah Ohtok dialogue in the Environmental Archon chamber is of lesser writing quality than the old 1.2 dialogue. * Objects containing quest items were removed by accident thus breaking side quests. * Vash is now killed by Sith Assassins instead of Archon M4-78, whilst on paper this may seem like an improvement the scene is actually of lower quality when compared to the highly cinematic M4-78 kills Vash cutscene from version 1.2. When you install the M4-78EP Unofficial Patch mod on top of M4-78EP 1.5, all of the above problems and problems you've never noticed will be fixed. * More new dialogue has been added to the landing pad's intro cutscene to make it flow more naturally. No new splices have been used and the old splices have been removed. Not only this, but the dialogue added in 1.5 has been preserved and has been rearranged to feel more natural in-game. * The teleportation added during the radiation side quest has been removed, however, the Security Droid cutscene that was removed in version 1.5 has been restored. Plans for restoring the bonus side quest in a future update is also being considered. * The Industrial Zone is now divided into 2 modules instead of three, and in the laggy module in particular a lot of the droids which were removed to fix the lag have been restored though the lag is still not present. * The old Kaah Ohtok dialogue in the Environmental Archon chamber has been brought back, however, the new dialogue has been mixed in with the old dialogue so that nothing has been removed. * Objects containing quest items which were removed by accident have been restored thus fixing the previously broken side quests. * The old ending from version 1.2 has been restored, Vash will now be killed by Archon M4-78 once again. Overall, this mod currently fixes around 150 problems from the original mod. Now, you might be thinking to yourself - "If the mod is finished, why is there a WIP thread for it?" The reason is simple, even though the bulk of the mod is finished I do intend to add optional install components to further fix the M4-78EP mod to make the mod more enjoyable. Below in this spoiler box are some of the plans I have for hypothetical future content updates: Of course, some of those plans may not come to fruition and some might even be added to the main mod, but those are just an idea for some of the things I have planned. I would like to dedicate this last bit of this WIP thread to my fellow modder, @Thor110, for his extensive collaboration with the project. We worked extensively together before he went on hiatus, many of the bug fixes found within this mod were not only done by him but couldn't have been done without him. Things like the extensive model fixes and corrections and the work done to re-merge the Industrial Zone from 3 to 2 modules can be attributed solely to him and, without him kickstarting the project with these difficult fixes, this completed mod would never have seen the light of day. Thor110's early work can be found in the M478EP Level Fixes mod but, as he points out, that mod is broken. The M4-78 Unofficial Patch contains the core fixes from that mod, alongside a boat load of new fixes. The full changelog can be found here in this spoiler box: And some screenshots: Do I feel this mod will make M4-78EP the best mod ever made, one that will make you go from hating M4-78 to loving it? No, I do not. However, I hope that this mod will give M4-78 a fair chance for new players who may be experiencing the planet for the first time. People will inevitably hate the idea of playing 3 hours worth of fan made content with little reward to show at the end of it, however, instead of experiencing a bug filled mess future players will now be able to judge M4-78 for exactly what it offers and what it tries to accomplish. The download link, when it is approved, shall be found here. Feel free to let me know your comments and your valuable suggestions on the mod here in the comment section down below:

May I request you keep the old one up as an archive whilst the new ones are uploaded seperately? Whilst I know your HD rework will be far superior to the old ones, some of us do like the 512x512 original quality aesthetic. I might be completely lost with what you are proposing here, but as a modder who uses your modders resources the way you setup your previous upscale mod was very convenient for me. When the mod is setup like this above, these three files are all part of the same download page but I can choose to download one or the other. If I was a player with a low-end PC and slow internet I wouldn't want to download the 4K TGA version due to the file size and so I'd stick with the 2K TPC version instead. This method best caters to everyone's needs, whether it be a low-end player, a player who wants to play with HD textures, and a modder who wants to access the raw TGA files. The only thing one could complain about is how there isn't a 2K TGA version for modders who want to view the lower resolution option. Of course, I might be missing the point of your thread completely - if I am please let me know!

View File TOR Inspired Sith Soldiers A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic and Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic II Author: N-DReW25 1.0.0 Release Date: 13.05.2026 Installation: This mod comes in three versions. The TOR Logo version: Adds TOR inspired Sith Soldiers with the logo of the TOR era Sith Empire on their shoulders. The Kotor Logo version: Adds TOR inspired Sith Soldiers with the logo of the Kotor era Sith Empire on their shoulders. The No Logo version: Adds TOR inspired Sith Soldiers without no logos on their shoulders. Select which version you want and copy "N_SithSoldier01.tga" and "N_SithSoldier02.tga" into your Override folder. Delete the files "N_SithSoldier01.tpc" and "N_SithSoldier02.tpc" if they exist in your Override.. Uninstallation: Delete the "N_SithSoldier01.tga" and "N_SithSoldier02.tga" files from your Override folder. Description: The idea for this mod came from the Revenge of Revan mod. In the hypothetical event that the plot of ROR has the Player confront the Sith Empire from TOR 300 years prior to their major appearance in TOR, I would need to create enemies for the player to fight. For ROR's Imperial Soldiers, I had two options - port the Imperial Soldiers from the TOR MMO, or make my own Imperial Soldiers. By reskinning the Kotor Sith Soldiers to resemble Imperial Soldiers, I have both made a convincing enemy for the Player to fight and did so in the laziest way possible. In the ROR mod, should these Imperial Soldier skins be used for enemies, the lore reason as to why they resemble Sith Soldiers is that, like how Revan duplicated the Leviathan ship via the Star Forge, he duplicated Kotor-era Imperial Soldier armor via the Star Forge which would produce white Imperial Soldier armor which is what the Sith Soldiers wore in Kotor. This excuse can be used as we don't know exactly where and/or how Revan designed the Sith Soldier armor - the Rakatans certainly didn't as they don't have Human proportions. And as to why the Imperial Soldiers in TOR don't resemble the ROR Imperial Soldiers, like how Phase I Clone Trooper Armor evolved into Phase II Clone Trooper Armor, the ROR Imperial Soldier Armor design would evolve into the TOR Imperial Soldier Armor design within the next 300 years. I decided to release these skins to the public as any appearance of actual Sith Empire forces would take years of ROR development to reach that point, if they even appear at all, so why should these cool skins go to waste rotting on my hard drive when you might want to use them in your Kotor game instead. Known Bugs: This mod shouldn't have bugs but if you find any please report them to me on Deadlystream. Incompatibilities: Would be incompatible with any mods which modify "N_SithSoldier01.tga" and "N_SithSoldier02.tga" or add "N_SithSoldier01.tpc" and "N_SithSoldier02.tpc". This mod is fully compatible with Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords. Permissions: Do NOT claim credit for this mod and do not use assets from this mod without my permission. Thanks to: Bioware: For such an amazing game and for making The Old Republic which inspired this mod! Fred Tetra: For Kotor Tool! Everyone who downloads the mod!

View File HD Dol Grenn A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic II Author: N-DReW25 1.0.0 Release Date: 01.05.2026 Installation: Open the "For Override" folder and drag/copy the textures within and drop/paste them into your Kotor II Override folder. Delete the file "N_DolGrenH.tpc" if it is present. Uninstallation: Delete the N_DolGrenH.tga file from your Override folder. Description: Lieutenant Dol Grenn's head in Kotor II was made via photo sourcing elements of other old male heads from Kotor I. Most of his face and beard comes from Davik, his eyebrows and sideburns are Davik's eyebrows and sideburns that are recolored brown, and most of his hair is Deadeye Duncan's hair that has also been recolored brown. Using this exact same method described above, I was able to photo source elements of Dark Hope's Davik and Deadeye Duncan heads to make a HD Lieutenant Grenn head. Known Bugs: This mod shouldn't have bugs but if you find any report them to me on Deadlystream. Incompatibilities: Would be incompatible with any mods which add N_DolGrenH.tga or N_DolGrenH.tpc. Permissions: As Dark Hope gave free permission for anyone to use her mods, you are therefore allowed to use this mod as it was made using her work. Thanks to: Dark Hope: For giving everyone free permission to use her work and for making the Davik and Deadeye mods in the first place! Bioware: For such an amazing game!
