I'm very new to this mod community and having just received the P.C. version (I heard that the restored content was finally available!) yesterday, I installed the 1.6 mod (at the time DeadlyStream was down and I was unable to obtain 1.7). Since I'm on break from college, I decided to power through the Peragus portion of the game and get to Telos. I was able to do so, no problem, thanks in large part to the `turbo cheat and knowing where everything is by heart. I started to notice some bugs that concerned me. Believe me, I'm very, very appreciative of the hard work these people do and the game is x1000000 better than it was. I'm just trying to get a handle on what's going on, so here's what I've encountered so far, along with an explanation:
Installation Rationale (Background info on what might have caused this problem) [skip-able]:
I apparently got the U.K. version of the game, so I had to get the 1.0a international patch, then the 1.0b. That was easy enough. I then scoured the internet for the mod site that allowed the download of 1.6. I downloaded this, then the Nar Shaada fix. I then downloaded the USM and it's compatibility mod. I got through Peragus and noticed some bugs. I thought I might have screwed up the USM and compatibility patch(being a total n00b), so I uninstalled the game and deleted the LucasArts folder to make sure I had a clean install. I skipped the USM (as cool as it is, I like story over flair) and went about my business. This time, the bugs were minimal, up until the ones that concerned me again (2 major ones):
Party Influence Fluctuation:
I gained influence with Atton twice before jumping on the Ebon Hawk and hitting up Telos. While I was on the Ebon Hawk and talking to him after checking up on Kreia's hand situation, I noticed his face was showing signs of Darkside corruption. After the lightsaber conversation, I checked his portrait in the party selection. Indeed he was becoming darkside. To test this, I used the addLightside and addDarkside cheats, and he always went opposite of what I was. I could be wrong, but in my Xbox play through, I thought everyone started off with neutral influence, then their respective morality alignment. However, when I hit Telos, I noticed he was neutral alignment but I have no idea how to check influence, so I figured it corrected itself. Then I checked the party selection screen, and now T3-M4 is Darkside! I never got any influence with that little bugger, so I have no idea what's going on.
Galactic History Bug?:
Following canon, I have designated Revan to male and lightside. When I got to the Ebon Hawk and asked Kreia to elaborate she said something along the lines of: "Revan escaped the Jedi and returned to finish Malak." I'm not sure what's going on here, because I checked the holorecordings on the Harbinger and the Captain was reporting to Admiral Onasi (indicating a lightside Revan, otherwise it'd be Admiral Cede). I'm wondering if this is just a conversation bug, or if it's a game altering bug.
Additional Information: Female Jedi Exile (following canon). No other mods.
I would add a TL;DR but, I figure bug reporting should be in detail. Again, sorry if I'm a n00b and if there's a different place to put this and/or this has already been resolved or brought up.
