bendarby24 24 Posted February 14, 2021 Hello All, Been a while. I'm trying to reinstall Kotor 2 again as my last modded game ran into an issue where I couldn't proceed with the Restoration Project Droid quest, as the Telosian Solider (Who triggers the Thugs in the Dock) wouldn't talk to me, thus stopping me from proceeding with the Telos Main Storyline. Realising my backup vanilla files are on a external harddrive that is broken, I need to reinstall the game via my old 5 disk copy. Unfortunely when installing, it told me certain data couldn't be extracted… I am now in a predicament where either I can install my Collection edition, which historically I have had issues modding with my old PC, or re-buy a copy of the 5 Disk Version, and then there is the Steam version to consider, which I have never tried before. As I haven't modded the game or played these versions in a long time, I have sought the wise council of this knowledgeable community to ask: What is the best version of Kotor 2? Or more specifically which is the best version for mods? The OG 5 disk is dependable, but sometimes can be a hassle, and it doesn't contain the shinny new perks that come with the newer versions. The collection Version is cool, but I have had problems with mods like Jorak Ulin's TSL Origin's mods which are essential for me , however this maybe not true anymore, as it was 6 years ago I last played the collection version. Where as the Steam version I have never played, although I have heard it has similar issues to the Collection Version regarding mods. Let me know which version I should go for :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeadMan 103 Posted February 21, 2021 Hi! IMO the best version for modding is the one from GOG. https://www.gog.com/game/star_wars_knights_of_the_old_republic_ii_the_sith_lords 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steam users can also set the game to LegacyPC to obtain the original version.

Guest Qui-Gon Glenn Posted December 30, 2021 If you want the Aspyr patch legit, buy it on Steam. 5 CD???? I have 4CD Original release, DVD KotOR Collection, and talked Aspyr into giving me a Steam key after showing them my multiple copies so I could have their patch. Probably a little late for you to score it that way, but it has never hurt to ask. The collection is the least mod-friendly, so my preference order would be: Steam > GoG > 4CD > DVD Collection (I have responded to enough old threads today, apologies if I have angered the overlords) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
