This is a Kotor 2: The Sith Lords mod. This particular mod (perhaps this version of it) is TSL only. You've installed it to the wrong game, which is why everything has gone wrong. 

 

Well, I definitely installed it in the right game folder, because the icon DID show up in the game, and it messed up all my other force power mods. I think I'm just gonna have to call the quits with this one. I really appreciate you reaching out and trying to help me with advice, though! Means a lot.

Did you unzip the folder first? I just unzipped and installed without running into that issue and it works. The "forcezeal.nss" is the script that causes the animation to trigger and the damage to be done. Try unzipping the folder and then installing it, you may have to redownload the folder. If that still doesn't work, then you could use the Kotor Tool to compile the source script, but that's much more tedious and you'd have to be very certain that the rest of the installer worked, especially the spells.2da being patched correctly; otherwise you could have issues.

Okay, so I've re-downloaded the mod and I think the files already come unzipped. The type of folder is a "File folder"; not a zipped folder. What comes up in the installer is the screenshot below. Also! How exactly do you go about using the Kotor Tool to compile the source script? Every time I try it gets aborted because of errors, as per the second screenshot below.

Thanks so much for your reply! I'll try what you said and see where it gets me.

When I tried installing the mod, the .exe installer was unable to "locate the compressed version of forcezeal.nss file". In the game, the power showed up and everything, but the animation and damage didn't work. Anyone know what to do? Thanks!
