MOD:PartySwap

[Lucas_Moreira_BR 0]

Interesting... I know of nothing that should be stopping you from getting the Handmaiden, unless you installed this mod after the holorecording sequence after Telos.

 

Nope, I actually instaled it before even starting the game. Does it has anything to do with my character being female? I was wondering it would be the case because people around here had this issue before right? Any indication on what I shold try to do based on your previous experience with the issue? Btw, awesome mod, I can't get it to work and I already love it, lol

[DarthTyren 103]

Well, yes, but that was when everyone had trouble in the first release of the mod. It was the main point of the first update, and has been fixed since.

[DarthTyren 103]

MAJOR UPDATE: As busy as I've recently found myself in my life, I haven't found any time to work on the anticipated compatibility patch between PartySwap and Extended Enclave, nor will I be able to find time or desire to work on it in the near future. However, there is some good news -

@Leilukin has graciously volunteered her time and dedication to creating said patch, and I've given her the go-ahead! I hope you'll all join me in wishing her luck!

That's excellent news! I'm definitely looking forward to it!

Yet ANOTHER Update:

Things are starting to settle a little bit for me right now, and I've finally decided to get back to work on this bad boy (and it has been very bad, indeed). Tomorrow, I'll be digging up my external drive with all my files on it and getting to work on the endgame Ebon Hawk scene with Disciple, making sure it can run correctly.

Here's where I ask for your help - I want this to be the final necessary update to make PartySwap work without issue on it's own (unless, of course, we get an update to RCM). So, if I need to be aware of any other issues, please report them to me either here in this thread, on Discord, or in PMs, even if you've already reported them before, as I'm trying to compile an up-to-date list and prioritize. Note that if the suspected culprit of an issue is incompatibility with another mod, it will not be considered.

Thank you all for putting up with me and my sporadic updates with this project. Now let's complete this thing - together!

[DarthTyren 103]

And we should be good to go! Version 1.3.2 can now be downloaded here.

I can't believe this mod actually exists I am so excited! Thank you!

Now I'm not 'at home' with modding errors/compatibility but I Installed it. You mentioned that if it gives any errors we should mention it so here it is;

I got 4 'warnings' from the patcher;

Quote

 

 • Warning: A file named 650KREHAND1016.mp3 already exists in the StreamVoice\650\KREHAND1 folder. Skipping file... 

• Warning: A file named 650KREHAND1017.mp3 already exists in the StreamVoice\650\KREHAND1 folder. Skipping file...

these 2 seem obvious, don't think it's a big deal

 • Warning: Unable to find a field label matching "ReplyList\25\EntriesList\1\Active2" in krehand1.dlg, skipping...

 • Warning: Unable to find a field label matching "ReplyList\260\EntriesList\1\Active2" in 650jedi.dlg, skipping...

These 2, not sure if the mod will work correctly?

 

And maybe a dumb question but, if nothing else pops up as a 'warning' does that mean there are no further comptability issues?

Because I see some mentions of the installer modifying files called Kreia and Zuka. Just wanna be sure before I continue and mess something up.

 

edit

Also I've read through the old comments somewhat and didn't find a clear answer.. is it now compatible with the extended enclave mod?

Sorry for the double post but I seem to have run into an issue.

I just left the Telos academy and the scene where Atris states the handmaiden has left triggers, but once on the ebon hawk after all the cutscenes there is no handmaiden 🤔

Traveled to a planet, hoping something would trigger later or she'd just appear in the party selection, but nope.

I'm trying to think of mods I have that might interfere but I can't think of anything.

I'm playing as the female exile. 

 

It's the last mod I installed, I'm on steam and there are no steam workshop mods activated, but I do have a bunch of other mods but besides the TSLRCM + EE they are all visual / small gameplay mods that do not relate to this sort of thing

 

Edit: Well, ignore my last! Issue resolved. I was using a mod to remove the hologram effect from the council recording TSLCRM added. holorec.dlg in my override. Handmaiden appears  Time to continue!

I can already tell you the problem more than likely - You aren't using the EE compatability patch made by Leilukin. Without it, PS and EE are going to hate each other.

Link here - Follow those install instructions TO THE LETTER!

Thanks for the reply!

Luckily I uninstalled EE somewhere along the line to see if that fixed my other issue, so now I could install it in the right order according to the patch.

Never noticed that compatibility patch. Maybe you could put it in the mod's description? 

Anyway, thank you the mod has been real fun so far!

Hello together,

I want to swap Party Members.
I want to recruit the green Twi'lek girl Ramana (the Dancing Twi'lek, who is lost by the Twi'lek named Harra at a round of Pazaak) at Telos instead of G0T0.

At the beginning can you help me with a Tutorial, which show me the right way in the kotor tool step for step?

My idea: If you presents Ramana the freedom at Telos, you meet her in the Cantina at Nar Shaadda too. 
There is a green Twi'lek looks like Ramana from Telos, who is in trouble with a ugly Gran.
For my idea, this is Ramana too. So if you rescue her again, there appear a dialogue option whith it you can recruit her for your party. 
Additional, I want to integrate the dialogue option later, that I can make Ramana to a jedi.

Can you help me?

Kind regards, Al Fartax

I'm not going to say your idea is bad but rather... infeasible. What with TSLRCM being used by 99% of TSL Players you would need to make it compatible, not only the complex plot of TSL and the complexity of how TSL is set up, but you will also need to make it compatible with that mod. Considering you are removing Goto, a central character to the plot, you would likely break the existing plot as well as the compatibility of other mods for such a minor and insignificant character.

 

Plus, why are you even asking that here? This mod simply adds Disciple and Handmaiden into the TSL game together and adds an item to "swap" them out as there aren't enough slots to accommodate the both of them.

I thing that's why he is asking here: The Swap item. Is it possible to increase the swappable characters? Would be an interesting way to add new party members.

[DarthTyren 103]

No, because there is a limit to the size of the party table - the game only comes coded for 12 slots.

I'm late to this but thank you for updating this mod. There's no more errors when I reinstalled the mod.

 

However, I would like to report a game-breaking bug I encountered with this mod:

 

It happened after the Rebuilt Jedi Enclave sequence and I returned to the Ebon Hawk, and I was trying out the mod with a male PC at the time. After the conversation with Visas, I got stuck in the Ebon Hawk and the game couldn't progress.

 

I believe the issue was caused by PartySwap modifying visasend.dlg to attempt to trigger the scene where Disciple warning Carth/Cede about the Telos attack. I had encountered similar issues when I was trying to make similar changes to visasend.dlg for my Visas Marr and Female Exile Romance mod. I didn't use my mod when I was trying out PartySwap, though. I didn't use any other mods that modify the Rebuilt Jedi Enclave sequence either.

I have to report the same issue as this.  Can anyone suggest a fix?

Hi i try instal you mod with RCM from steam workshop,  after chosing RCM workshop folder(the number one) i get error masage "canot found dialog.tlk file". I read already abaut instalation outside mods mixing with workshop mods. Sorry for my english.

[Leinton 0]

I'm unable to get the Handmaiden to join my party when I leave Telos. I did install the mod before getting to Telos, I'm playing as a Female PC. I just don't get the cutscene where she joins, and then I checked her location on the ship just to double check and she's not there.

[DarthTyren 103]

And I think it important that the world knows... that pesky problem that plagued the Disciple-Carth/Cede scene at endgame - which broke the game for many players - can finally... REST... IN... PEACE!

Many thanks to @Snigaroo for testing PartySwap in preparation for the next iteration of the Community Mod Build. There are a few other issues that I'd like to check out at some point, even if only to learn that PS isn't the problem, but none of them are game breaking. I also have something else to restore in the mod, so expect a new release sometime this week.

And the latest version is live! Enjoy everyone!

i know it may sound lasy but, i have an incredible trouble getting any kind of non Steam Workshop mod to work(the fact i am dumb as brick when it comes to anything moding doesn't hlep) could you please put this mod Steam Workshop too, i and surely many others would greatly appreciate it.

have a nice day and thank you.

Since you decided to PM me about this as well, I'll go ahead and make the reply public:

Sorry - it's quite literally not an option. It has always been recommended for people to not even use the Steam Workshop at all if they want to install more than one mod, and PartySwap is a mod of TSLRCM, which presents its own issues when trying to work with the Workshop. If you want to use any mods alongside TSLRCM, it'll have to be a Workshop-free setup.

Click here for a better explanation.

So what I'd suggest is making a fresh install with TSLRCM downloaded and installed direct straight from DeadlyStream, NOT the Workshop, and then install PartySwap afterward.

[DarthTyren 103]

Seeing as I've received this particular request numerous times, and have not heard a valid argument to accept it, I figured I'd take an official stance, state my professional opinion, and make a final announcement regarding the subject.

Official stance: TSLRCM is the only way to get the "canon" experience of TSL that is continuous with the rest of the Old Republic storyline. Making any other claim is futile.

Professional opinion: TSLRCM is a requirement to enjoy TSL at all. It's very existence is not only the reason mods like PartySwap exist, but also the reason why making them work with the game was relatively easy. Anyone who doesn't use it does themselves and the game they're playing a great disservice.

So here's the announcement: A version of PartySwap that works with non-RCM installs of TSL will NEVER enter development. Along with the statements above, to do so would be to also subject myself to replaying an inferior product for the purposes of testing, and let's not forget the fact that I would also have to start completely from scratch, with different files, different installer setup, etc. I know of no one who would willingly subject themselves to such torture. So, yeah, not gonna happen.

I'm playing through TSLRCM 1.8.5. I have Party Swap 1.3.3, EE 2.5, and PS/EE Comp Patch installed. I see the PS adrenal in my menus, but it's not labeled and has no description. When I use it, The camera just zooms in to almost 1st person and stays there and the game becomes unresponsive. PC is Female. I have successfully recruited both Handmaiden and Disciple. Currently, Disciple is showing in my Party assign menu. How do I get Handmaiden to show up instead? ALL mods installed are from Snigaroo's list of compatible mods here.
