(Kotor 1) kotor tool error when finding game

[Saul_R97 1]

 

Also I need a working link for Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 as the one i installed I'm not sure if it's working.

If you have your registry entries in order then you shouldn't have to mess with the Path Manager.
I don't even have a settings.xml, so not sure what that error is about, maybe a temporary file it creates.

Did you check the Steam guide I linked you?
Not an expert on .NET framework versions, but usually it will not launch a piece of software at all if it's not adequate and give you a notice about it.

add this to whatever.reg

 

	Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
	[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\LucasArts]
	[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\LucasArts\KotOR2]
"Path"="E:\\Game Files\\Steam\\steamapps\\common\\Knights of the Old Republic II"

change path= to ur system path to kotor2,save it anywhere then right click it,will prolly prompt a warning,click yes

Yes. I thought that was only for kotor 2 but I'll try again. this is what my text file in note pad looks like, is it right? and what do i save it as?

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\LucasArts]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\LucasArts\KotOR2]

That's pointing the entry of K2 to the path of K1, better not do that.

You save as whateverdoesntmatter.reg (filename doesn't matter, it's like a recipe to add an entry to the registry).
Double click the file and it asks if you're sure you want to add it to the registry.
In your case it should be something like:
K1

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\BioWare\SW\KOTOR]
"path"="D:\\SteamLibrary\\steamapps\\common\\swkotor"

K2

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\LucasArts\KotOR2]
"Path"="D:\\SteamLibrary\\steamapps\\common\\Knights of the Old Republic II"

Note the difference in Bioware/LucasArts.

Or combine things in one file:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\BioWare\SW\KOTOR]
"path"="E:\\Games\\SteamLibrary\\steamapps\\common\\swkotor"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\LucasArts\KotOR2]
"Path"="E:\\Games\\SteamLibrary\\steamapps\\common\\Knights of the Old Republic II"
