This mod is a reupload from the mod I first uploaded to Nexus mods. This mod is an essential tool to play the game however you want! 
This simple mod, allows a very extensive set of difficulty options to be selected when playing Knights of the Old Republic. This does work for Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords as well! Ranging from Effortless difficulty, where you will take no damage during gameplay, all the way up to Impossible difficulty, where every move counts!
 
This mod was done to significantly increase or decrease game difficulty options. A full detail of all options are as follows:

Effortless - "requiring no physical or mental exertion." True to the definition, this makes your kotor experience completely story based. Fight even the toughest of enemies with no armor, and hand to hand combat!

Very Easy - 1/4 damage taken in game. Makes the game so easy, even a young child would enjoy without frustration.

Easy - "achieved without great effort; presenting few difficulties." This is the standard Easy difficulty option already present in-game. 1/2 damage from enemies.

Moderate - "average in amount, intensity, quality, or degree." This setting is slightly easier than the standard normal difficulty, best suited for gamers who have never played dice roller combat before. 3/4 damage from enemies.

Normal - "conforming to a standard; usual, typical, or expected." This is the default normal difficulty, recommended to start here for basic play as the game is balanced like the way it was intended. 100% damage from enemies.

Challenging - "testing one's abilities; demanding." This difficulty setting ups the ante in favor for the enemies in the game slightly. Best for first time players of the game but have experience with dice roller combat. 125% damage from enemies

Difficult - "needing much effort or skill to accomplish, deal with, or understand." This setting is the default max difficulty option, best for experienced players to play at this level. 150% damage from enemies.

Hard - "requiring a great deal of endurance or effort." This setting is the first one to really shine above normal gameplay capabilities, most players probably feel like the standard Difficult setting is still too easy. This setting will be a refresher for those ample to play harder difficulties without overdemanding scenarios. 200% damage from enemies.

Very Difficult - Essentially this is double the punishment done by the regular Difficult setting. Best suited for those who want extra challenge and thought processes for the journey. 300% damage from enemies.

Overpowering - "extremely strong or intense; overwhelming." This is where the game starts really getting Souls-like. Enemies will deliver punishing damage in late game. At times certain fights will make you doubt the possibilities of beating the game like this. 400% damage from enemies.

Impossible - "not able to occur, exist, or be done." This setting is for those who are Souls masters. Beating the game on this difficulty should be an achievement worth all the points it would take to beat all achievements from most games. Will have you looking like Darth Maul begging Darth Sidious for mercy, "There is no mercy." 500% damage from enemies.

So as you can see, this simple difficulty mod will cater to practically anyone's tastes. Just make sure to change difficulty prior to starting a new game. The default option will always select the second difficulty option no matter what, which in this case would be the  "Very Easy" option. Let me know what you think of the mod and May the Force be with You!
