kotor 2 [KotOR 2] Instruction Manual requirement

[Obi Wan Pere 122]

I'm looking for the Manual of KotOR 2 TSL in .pdf format and english language, the original file after a fresh installation (before install any Patch or MOD).

Searching in the net I've found just one web that contains it but, besides to subscribe, it demands to pay for the downloads. I've always respected the work of others and I don't know who owns the rights of the file -if still exists really- but is a shame that anyone have to pay for a file of one game 14 years old.

Well, my requirement is simple, and I think that with a PM with a File BELONGING to a friendly user, nobody would be compromised, nor, for sure, DS.

Thanks in advance.

Isn't it included as a PDF in official installs?

Steam doesn't include it. GOG has it, but only as a separate "goodies" download I believe.

At least in the 4 CD's SP version the file is located in the folder "Docs" of the first CD as well so, is indifferent if the KotOR 2 installation is Patched or MODed.  I didn't find it with my first check of the CD's.

Yes, the file is installed, but remember that I'm using the spanish version. I have the paper version too but I don't need "extrictly" the manual but the english version of the pdf file.

So I see that is a coveted thing...

With the intention of find the less number of troubles with MODs I'm trying an "easy" conversion of K2 TSL spanish version to english version (like I did with KotOR 1 successfully). Using the english version of the dialog.tlk file, instead the SP version file installed, works fine but now I can't patch the game with the UK Patches versions due the different version of the Manual pdf file. During the patching process from 1.0 to 1.0a the dialog.tlk file is patched with no problems but stops and gives an error with the Manual pdf file.

If the experiment works fine I believe it can be a good asset for anyone that has a non english version of the game and wants install MODs working with few surprises.
