Well, I did not switch anything I think. Let me tell you what I did: installed TSL, patched to 1.0b, installed TSL RCM 1.7, installed your unofficial fix, installed Newbiemodder's Korriban Expansion mod, installed Qui Don Jorn's Hotor 1.4, patched-it to 1.5 with his patch 1.5. The only time I switched anything is when I sent the aforementionned file (global.jrl) to the version Newbiemodder's modified for me to be able to see the objectives (which did not work...). Anyway, these are the 3 mods (yours, NM's, Qui Don's) I have that modifies global.jrl, the only ones. So there has to be some kind of uncompatibilities between them...
Yup, empty journal is a clash, but I also think NM's expansion mod is bugged for me and I got blocked in the mod, without being able to keep pressing on. Been trying to progress ever since, but couldn't. I think there ought to be a way to get your fixes to work with both of these great mods, but I can't figure-it out by myself and it seems Newbiemodder couldn't too. If you could gather together what modifications you did, maybe a compatible global.jrl could be realeased in order to work with all these mods? Or am I the only one that uses these 3 mods with problems?
