MOD:Handmaiden and Female Exile - Disciple and Male Exile Romance

[Leilukin 284]

What Kexikus said. If you want to use more TSL mods in addition to TSLRCM, manually installing TSLRCM is a much safer method than using the Steam Workshop version of TSLRCM, which is why I do not use nor support Steam Workshop, and I do not recommend using any of my mods alongside the Steam Workshop version of TSLRCM.

Check my replies to your comments on the Nexus Mods mod page. Be patient and wait for my reply instead of posting the same issue multiple times on Nexus Mods and here within a few hours.

The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod's mod page and Read Me already state that the Ultimate Saber Mod is not compatible with TSLRCM, so no, since my mod requires TSLRCM to work. And I will not make a version of my mod that does not require TSLRCM.

I can’t get the mod to work and I followed your steps on getting TSLRCM mod through deadly and manually installing it and manually installing your mod, it shows the RCM working but nothing changes when I get to the academy I can’t get Brianna, have I missed something??

To quote my answer from my FAQ article about my same-gender romance mod:

Quote

If Handmaiden does not join your female Exile's party when you are using my Handmaiden romance mod, the possible causes for this happening are:

• You did not install my mod correctly: Either you get errors when installing the “Default Installation” option, or you did not install DarthTyren's PartySwap mod first before installing the “PartySwap Compatible” option of my mod.
• You are using a mod that requires you to put a file named holorec.dlg in the Override folder. If there is a holorec.dlg in your Override folder, delete it.
• You may have some leftover Steam Workshop folders in your Steam directory that overrides the portion where Handmaiden is supposed to join your party. To solve this, go to the Steam Workshop folder in your Steam directory (/\Steam\SteamApps\Workshop\), and delete all the sub-folders in the Steam Workshop folder.
• Similar to the above, you may have some leftover files from a mod you used in your previous playthrough in your KotOR 2 game directory that interferes the portion where Handmaiden is supposed to join your party. The best way to solve this is to uninstall your game, delete your KotOR 2 game folder entirely, and then re-install the game and the mods you want to use.

Which installation option did you choose when you install my mod: Default Installation or PartySwap compatible installation? In addition to TSLRCM and my mod, are you using any other mods? If you play KotOR 2 on Steam, have you ever subscribed to any mod from the Steam Workshop before?

I installed this after installing your Visas Marr mod, then opened a save from when the exile is in the military base on Telos (before going to the pole), yet Brianna doesn't appear on my ship after I leave the academy. I used Crossover to install the mod on my Steam edition on my Mac, and, yes, I have the non-Steam Workshop version of TSLRCM installed (also via Crossover). Any idea what might be the problem?

Edit: Never mind. Even though I never installed anything from the Steam Workshop, there was a bunch of junk in the Workshop folder. Deleting that fixed my Brianna problem, and doesn't seem to have adversely affected the game in any way.

Hi!

I really love your mod, so for the last few days I've tried adding it to the KOTOR II full build on reddit here: https://www.reddit.com/r/kotor/wiki/k2fullbuildmobile/#wiki_tslrcm (right before the Extended Enclave as the compatibility readme said to). I've started from scratch three times now but the error below occurs every time. No further errors occur in the patches and mods I install afterwards, but I wanted to ask if there is a way to fix them? I don't want to start a save using the mod build and have the game crash hours in.

[Error] Destination file "lips\003EBO_loc.mod" does not exist at the specified location! Skipping section...
[Error] Destination file "lips\262TEL_loc.mod" does not exist at the specified location! Skipping section...
[Error] Destination file "lips\903MAL_loc.mod" does not exist at the specified location! Skipping section...
[Error] Destination file "lips\localization.mod" does not exist at the specified location! Skipping section...

I've read the FAQ, readmes, mod page, and comments, but I've only seen a few people with the same errors and their circumstances didn't completely apply to me. I am not using Steam, and I am using a dummy executable in place of the actual game .exe file in my mods folder. I checked for the lips files and they were not present, but I could not find them in the mTSLRCM content even before I altered it.

Thank you for your time! I really hope I can play your mod!  

[Leilukin 284]

@jjuacamole As I pointed out in the FAQ article of my same-gender romance mods for KotOR 2, I cannot help directly with modding KotOR 2 on any console or mobile devices, because I only own the PC version KotOR 2. However, since the KotOR subreddit mod build includes another one of my mod, Darth Sion and Male Exile Mod, which also involves injecting files in the lips folder, there must be a way to install mods that involve the lip folder on the mobile version of KotOR 2, so you may have better luck in getting help with identifying your issue by asking it on the KotOR subreddit mod build thread.

@Leilukin Thank you for your quick reply! I apologize--I didn't realize it was a mobile exclusive problem. I will visit the subreddit next!

Do you have a folder named "lips" in your KotOR 2 game folder? Do you play KotOR 2 on Steam, GOG or the CD version?

What is your operating system: WIndows, maxOS or Linux?

If you are playing on Linux, you need to point the mod's installer to the "steamassests" folder.

Windows

[Leilukin 284]

@WillJMC Did you make sure you actually pointed the mod's installer to your main KotOR 2 folder, where swkotor2.exe is located? Do not point the installer to the Override folder.

Is your lips folder Read-only? Right-click your lips folder, go to Properties and see if the "Read-only" box is checked. If yes, make sure that your KotOR 2game directory and all subfolders are not set as read-only by unchecking the "Read-only" box of these folders.

If my above suggestions still does not work or apply to you, you may need to try to verify integrity of game files of your KotOR 2 game on Steam to check if your game has been installed properly.

Hi!

 

So I followed the popular KOTOR 2 Mod build (which also features your mod partyswap) and wanted to install this mod. I started doing so but encountered 33 errors, I ran the patcher a couple more times until I eventually reached 0 errors. Did I kind of mess my game up now? Or is there no need for worry?

At what point did you install my mod? Installation order matters a lot when you want to install a lot of mods. As pointed out in the FAQ article of my same-gender romance mods regarding installing my mods alongside the KOTOR Community Portal's mod build:

Quote

[...]some of my mods require you to install at a very specific point of the mod builds:

• Handmaiden and Female Exile - Disciple and Male Exile Romance should be installed immediately after PartySwap and before Extended Enclave. If you also want to install Extended Enclave, you should use the compatibility patch included in my Handmaiden/Disciple romance mod, instead of the standalone patch I made for the mod build. If you plan on using Kreia's Fall In-Game Cutscene, you need to install the compatibility patch included in my mod.

Unless the mod explicitly instructs to do so, re-running the patcher will more than likely mess up your game, so I suggest you reinstall your game and the mods from scratch.

I installed it after PartySwap, but i just realized that I installed it after Extended Enclave as well, considering I followed the popular KOTOR 2 Mod Build that's out there first and then downloaded standalone mods like yours here.

So far I've had no problems yet with handmaiden (granted, I don't think I've had the opportunity for any "romance" dialogues yet), and I'm currently at the end of Nar Shaddaa. Is reinstalling still a must? I installed extended enclave, but I'm honestly not sure yet what it actually does haha. I assume reinstalling makes you lose your saves, unless you can back those up, but would they still function correctly?

As I suspected, wrong installation order was the cause of the errors you encountered. The Extended Enclave compatibility patch of my Handmaiden romance mod has instructed that if you want to use my mod with Extended Enclave, you should install Extended Enclave AFTER my mod.

The Instruction section of the KOTOR Community Portal's mod build has clearly stated that:

Quote

• If you are intending to use any content not included in the mod builds, search for and identify that content BEFORE installing the builds! Certain mods have install steps or overwrite requirements that will necessitate you installing them midway through the mod build install, so if you want to use content outside the builds, you should identify that content before you start your install.

So if you want to use my Handmaiden/Disciple romance mod, you should read and understand my mod's instructions first BEFORE installing the KOTOR Communtiy Portal's mod build.

Yes, you still must reinstall your game and the mods, because you have messed up the installation of the mod build and my mod by installing my mod only after Extended Enclave. If you do not reinstall, you will likely encounter potentially game-breaking issues when you reach the Rebuilt Jedi Enclave sequence when you return to Dantooine after meeting the Jedi Masters.

Did you not read mod descriptions before you installed a mod? Both the KOTOR Community Portal and the download page of Extended Enclave itself has stated that it restores content to the Rebuilt Jedi Enclave sequence on Dantooine.

The KOTOR Community Portal's description of Extended Enclave:

Quote

Restores some additional content to the Dantooine Enclave, including more variance depending upon your influence with Kreia.

Description of the download page of Extended Enclave:

Quote

This is an extended version of the Rebuilt Enclave sequence. We went through the dialogs as modified by TSLRCM and compared them to the original versions and made changes and restored additional dialog based on developer notes, etc...

Since you have not reached the Rebuilt Jedi Enclave sequence yet, you may back up your current saves and use your current saves after you reinstall the game and the mods.
