KotOR Savegame Editor is a Perl/Tk application used in the editing of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic savegame files. The following fields are currently editable: - Savegame name - Player name - NPC Name - Appearance (player and party) - Portrait (player and party) - Attributes - Skill Ranks - Equipment (player and party)*** - Feats (add/remove)** - Powers (add/remove)** - Cheats Used flag - Hit Points (current and max*) - Force Points (current and max*) - Experience Points (player and party) - Good/Evil rating - Credits - Time played - Class (see notes below)** - Levels - Current Party - NPCs - Global Booleans - Global Numerics - Gender - Min1HP - Inventory** - Influence (TSL only) - Chemicals (TSL only) - Components (TSL only) - Quests *=Note: Max Hit Points and Max Force Points, while editable appear to be calculated at the time the savegame is loaded. Therefore while these fields are editable, the game will change the values back to what it calculates as correct. It is therefore better to change your Wis/Cha and Con to affect your MFP and MHP. ** Not supported on Xbox Saves, will cause "Damaged Savegame" message. *** See special section for detailed instructions ----------------- Credits ----------------- tk102 for originally creating the KSE. Pazuzu156 for reporting the issue with the Cloud saves, as well as helping fix it and setting up a mirror for and creating the auto-updater. Chev Chelios for much discussion of how Steam worked, as well as creating the INI-Generation tool, KPF. ----------------- Before Using KSE ----------------- --------------- Intro to KSE --------------- ------------- Using KSE ------------- --------------------------------------------- Override Folder: Subdirectories NOT supported --------------------------------------------- ----------------------------- Notes About Feats and Powers ----------------------------- ------------------------- Reminder: No Safety Net! ------------------------- ----------------------------------------------- Notes regarding Class-changing/Adding/Removing ----------------------------------------------- -------------------------------- Notes regarding changing levels -------------------------------- ------------------------------- Notes about changing equipment ------------------------------- =============== Known Bugs =============== No saves found (You have Steam KotOR 2 and use cloud saves) ----------------------------------------------------------- Go to your KotOR 2 folder and make a folder called "saves". Inventory Hiccup ------------------ If an item is added to your inventory and it has the same Tag as another item, KSE will generate an error. Getting Stuck During Vision Sequence (KotOR1) ---------------------------------------------- Symptom: After leaving the Endar Spire or Leaving Taris, you run into a sequence where you should be seeing a "dream" cutscene but instead you're locked up in a room with a "CutStart" object that doesn't do anything. Cause: You have NOT placed the modified .dlg files into your override directory and you have changed your character to a Jedi/Minion/Droid class or you have changed your Gender to something other than Male or Female. Fix: Download the KSE Fixed Cutscene Files (available from http://www.pcgamemods.com/8800 ) and place the .dlg files into your Override folder. ============================================== After changing appearance to look like (an NPC), the real NPC has no head! --------------------------------------------------------------- Symptom: You change appearance to look like one of your party NPCs and all is well until you attempt to enter a new area with that NPC. Then the NPC loses its head! Cause: SW:KotOR doesn't like two unique characters appearing together. Fix: From T7Nowhere's post on Holowan Labs-- =============================================================== Equipment Section ------------------ Due to an unknown bug, the Equipment branch might become unusable. The only fix is to restart KSE. ================== Please report bugs to zxcvbnm6012@yahoo.com 11/7/13 - In addition, please report bugs to tristongoucher@gmail.com Thank you. - Fair Strides.

DISCLAIMER: I did not make ERFEdit originally. I did however receive the source code from Stoffe via PM at Lucas Forums, after telling her about a severe issue that needed to be fixed. I have fixed the issue and am now releasing the updated version of the tool. ERF/RIM Edit Version: v0.5 Released: 2006-05-18 Updated: 2007-03-11 Updated_FS: 2017-03-19 What is this? ------------- This is a simple Packer/Unpacker/Browser for the ERF/MOD/SAV/HAK/RIM format files used by the bioware engine games Neverwinter Nights and Knights of the Old Republic. The resource type list is updated to handle some types of files used by the KotOR games that were not used by Neverwinter Nights. It is capable of creating new files or modify existing ones, as well as extract any resources found within the file. A simple search feature makes it easier to locate resources in the list within large ERF format files. The Description field is currently not shown or editable since it is not used with the KotOR games. User Interface shortcuts ------------------------ You may drag and drop files into the list to add them instead of using the "Insert" button, or you may drag selected files from the list to the Desktop or a Windows Explorer window to extract them rather than use the "Extract" button. Selected files in the list can be deleted with the hotkeys Backspace and DEL in addition to using the Remove button. When dragging many or large files from the ERF/RIM file to the desktop (or a Windows Explorer window), keep the mouse button pressed until the progress bar has reached 100%, then drag the files to where you want them and let go. Hopefully I'll be able to fix this quirky behavior in the future. IMPORTANT! ---------- New files/resources added to an ERF file are not actually added until you Save the file. Do not move, rename or delete any files you have added before you save the open ERF/RIM file, or the resource will not be added upon save. Resources in the list with an asterisk (*) following the ResRef are newly added and not yet saved into the file. These files cannot be extracted until the ERF file has been saved.
