KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC 2 UNOFFICIAL PATCH


=====================================================
KNIGHTS OF THE OLD REPUBLIC 2 UNOFFICIAL PATCH v1.3.1
=====================================================

VERSION 1.3.1 CHANGES:
--------
Added dialogue options to be able to lie to Samhan during the 'Bonus Mission: Smuggling on Citadel Station' quest so that he can tell you about the three
items that he wants smuggled without siding with him after ending the dialog. This will allow the Exile to tell Grenn about the smuggling operation and
side with Grenn instead of Samhan.

-------------------------------------------------

Description:
---------------
This is a stand alone project and it will work well with the English version of 2.00.424 and 2.10.427 of Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords.
Version 2.00.424 is the initial CD release of Kotor 2 in the United States, while 2.10.427 is the final English patch for the original version of Kotor 2. 
I have played this with the Aspyr version of Kotor 2 and it can run without any game breaking issues, but there are weird graphical glitches and minor issues.
This mod is incompatible with TSLRCM and with any other mod except for ones that expressly state compatibility with Kotor 2 Unofficial Patch 1.2 and above. 

(from the original readme of version 1.1 of Kotor 2 Unofficial Patch)
This mod serves four main purposes:

1. Fixing quest issues:
- Fixing Broken quests.
- Removing available quest-related dialogue lines after quest was finished.
- Making quest more focused and difficult to break.

2. Closing game issues like (NOT A FULL LIST JUST EXAMPLES):
- Unlimited respawn of hssiss creatures in a Sith tomb on Korriban.
- Unlimited creation of Handmaiden robe on Ebon Hawk.
- Duplication of Atton ribbed jacket and generic clothing on Citadel Station first arrival.
- Unlimited spawning of a landspeeder on Nar Shaddaa.
- Characters, droids, turrets not resuming there animations after player initiated conversation with them.
- Cycled dialogues (HK50, T3M4, Atris).

3. Adding some stuff (NOT A FULL LIST JUST EXAMPLES):
- Missing planet hologram, hyperdrive, and damaged HK-47 in some stunt versions of the Ebon Hawk.
- Added medical lab table to all Ebon Hawk modules.
- Restricted mode on Ebon Hawk (no weapons and no head gear).
- Party members are always healed on the Ebon Hawk.
- Fights with Red Eclipse captain and mandalorian recruit Davrel are One on One.
- Visas arrival sequences moved to 005EBO module due to practical reasons ( party members are stunned, Visas uses force sight on a player).
- Space suit will be equipped before going through the airlock on Peragus.
- Every time player is learning new force power or feat from party member the text box will appear.
- TSF officers will now patrol all modules not just Entertainment module 081.
- Added Some Pazaak players on Citadel Station cantina.
- Czerka utility droid will now weld instead of just being there.
- Bao Dur is using his 'shield breaker' animation when breaking force fields.
- Player will now actually shut down force cages on Peragus and Telos Academy.
- Speaking on comlink cutscenes changed.
- Atton and T3 playing pazaak cutscenes available.
- Visas, Nihilus cuscene is executed on engine now and is triggered by Ebon Hawk galaxy map script.
- Tobin, Nihilus cutscene is now available.
- Added Hangar doors to G-wing hangar on Dxun with map note.
- Added Caged beasts on Onderon.
- Added Kath hounds on Dantooine.
- Ratrin Vhek on Ebon Hawk.
- Opo Chano on Nar Shaddaa;
- B4D4, T1N1 on Nar Shaddaa;
- Adana on Nar Shaddaa will appear near her mother after releasing her.
- Player learns force and lightsaber (if he has a lightsaber(s) equipped) forms from Masters.
- Crafting lightsaber quest has been changed. Now all lightsaber parts can be created on a workbench.

4. The last and the main reason is changing in-game cutscenes.

Installation:
-----------------
This mod only works with the English version of Kotor 2. It is required to start a new game for this mod to work properly.
Extract the folder from the .7z file onto your computer. Open the extracted folder and you should see a file called 'Install.exe' 
Double click on Install.exe to start installing this mod.
Make sure that you select the correct Kotor 2 directory path for you, which is the directory that includes the swkotor2.exe file.
Click install on the bottom right. HoloPatcher creates backups of the files automatically, so no need to worry about that.

If you get an error after installation called 'Permission denied', open the 'errorlog.txt' file, located in the same folder 
as 'Install.exe', look at the top of the file, and look at the end of the directory path to see what file(s) got denied permission.
Open the 'tslpatchdata' folder, located in the same folder as 'Install.exe', find the file(s) that were denied permission,
and copy and paste the file(s) into the exact directory path(s) as shown in the 'errorlog.txt' file.

Uninstallation:
---------------
Double click on Install.exe to uninstall this mod.
Select the correct Kotor 2 directory path for you, which is the directory that includes the swkotor2.exe file.
Click on 'Tools' in the top left of the menu bar.
Click on the option 'Uninstall Mod / Restore Backup' in the pop up menu.
Confirm that you want to uninstall the mod.

Bugs:
---------
During the Ebon Hawk scene before you go to Malachor V, the outside texture of the Ebon Hawk is incorrect. I don't know how to change the texture, sorry!
Otherwise, I didn't notice any other issues, but if you notice any bugs, please contact on Deadlystream or ModDB.
