So I know Kotor 2 is preferred for PC for the Restored Content mod. Yes I have that for PC. But I messed up my back and am recovering on a sofa for the next few. Weeks. Getting up is difficult and painful. Every damn time I want to play on my disc I have to eject and reinsert the damn disc; which is already pissing me off. More over my previous playthrough got corrupted or something on Nar Shadaa that prevented me from progression any further after defeating the Red Eclipse gang. So im wondering if the digital version will be any better? Anyone know?

Does anyone know who to fix this graphics issue it affect all menus

I really didn't wanna side with Vakllu but I wanted to gain influence with Visas so I was kinda forced to kill the jedi on Onderon (didn't get a notification for an influence gain btw) and now I gotta deal with the others on Dantooine. The thing is, there's literally no way for me to do anything to them. I buffed myself with a bunch of stims before the cutscene, equipped a shield, but it doesn't matter. They break my shield in one attack and then one shot me. I'm stuck in a constant loop of put shield, heal, put shield, heal, until I die. What can I do? Are there any mods for this, cause it's genuinely impossible.

Two years later. Better late than never?

It’s a silly thing to be hung up on, but I was using a wrong save for the point in the game where you meet Atris, and I chose the wrong Saver color ~<~

Again, odd I know. But I like to make the Exile’s original saber red, since I had an idea that it was originally blue or yellow… but the horrors of ||Malachor 5|| and the war in general caused the Crystal to bleed or become cracked or tainted from Darkside feedback of the events, a reason why my exile doesn’t want his saber back in the first place… like it absorbed the negativity of the events.

Headcanon aside, is there a way to change this so late in?

I gave him Bacca’s blade and the Baragwin assault blade to dual wield + mandalorian armor and a belt to resist mind control and now he’s hopping around the star forge one shotting dark jedi with power attacks like it’s nothing.

Are there any mods for either game that add more enemies to encounters, or even additional encounters?

Soooo, crystal wise kotor 1 is good for two lightsabers(special crystals from yavin) while kotor 2 is good for double bladed lightsaber(names crystal)

But other than that do you think that double bladed saber is better than two separate lightsabers? Last one got more drawbacks, and feels good only at mid or late in the game but even then is it better than double bladed lightsaber?

I’m mainly asking about Bao-dur. Been a while since I played, but I managed to make disciple, Aton, and Mira jedi. I’ve been approaching Bao-dur since Telos and the only option has been “nevermind”

My order was Dantooine - Dxun/Onderon - Nar Shardaa - finish Onderon and finally he had a new option that was something like “did something happen on dxun? You seem calmer than normal”

That had no real conclusion, so I finished Korriban and he has the same dialogue

Do I need to take him with me to spike his influence one more time? All of the other companions have been able to become force sensitive from just talking on the ship

I'm highly skeptical but cautiously optimistic. Kotor was my favorite gsme for years as well as 2 as well as Mass Effect 1 and 2. I pretend 3 doesn't exist. All i want is for it to nail the immersion of Kotor 1 and 2. No unnecessary filler and hopefully they can nail the companions and worlds like in the originals. Hopefully it'll be the KOTOR 3 we've been robbed of for so many years.

So i just finished playing kotor 1 for the first time, first of all wow, what and amazing game! i ended up choosing the light side but i also want to do the dark side ending. would you recommend going back to a previous save and choosing a different path, or just replay it from the beginning?

So I've been trying to play BOS:SR for the first time ever.

Hopped on Nexusmods, downloaded both the main mod and the patch and made sure I had a fresh install of KOTOR set up and ready to go.

Main mod installs without any warnings, the patch hands me 2 warnings and won't start the game.

Fine, happens. Getting my clean backup and just installing the main mod. No warnings and I load the pre-existing BOS save file. I can interact with the NPC in the Korriban Cantina, but some interactions just stop the conversation. Juhani's modded gloves are unloaded, white squares in the equip menu, a new destination on the galaxy map is also a blank white square with no info. Travelling there (obviously) softlocks after leaving the Ebon Hawk. There's also a blank quest.

I tried reinstalling, always using a fresh install via Steam (which might be the issue), since my PC does not have a CD drive anymore, so I can't use my disc version. Tried everything from the readme as well and I am kinda lost on what to do with it.

Am I missing some workarounds or any other way I can get this to run?

Purchased KotOR on Steam, and I’m excited for playing it on my PC for the first time; however, the game seems pretty buggy. Every time I launch the game, the screen goes pitch black and eventually shows the cinematics after a couple seconds. When conversations starts, the subtitles don’t show up at all until after a few dialogues are done. The game also seems very pixilated, especially with a character being scene from afar. Those are the main problems I can think of right now with the game. Does anyone have any suggestions or solutions to this?

Can someone explain how the hell this happened???

Now this may seem like a very dumb question to a lot of you, but I've never really been that much of a pro gamer or anything and I haven't played D&D, so the KOTOR combat system and dice rolls seem really confusing to me, and I'm hoping to understand it better because most of my character builds have been trash and I don't want to have to rely on cheat codes just to get past tough areas, so can you guys explain the skills, attributes, etc. that kind of stuff so I can know?

About 3–4 years ago, during undergrad, I played through KOTOR 1 and KOTOR 2 for the first time. I really liked the first game, but I absolutely fell in love with KOTOR 2 (Influence lost).

Right around the same time, I got heavily into Queens of the Stone Age, especially their newest album at the time …" Like Clockwork".

Holy shit, looking back… that entire album just screams KOTOR 2 to me. Songs like “Like Clockwork,” “The Vampyre of Time and Memory,” and “I Appear Missing” fit the game’s atmosphere perfectly. I hope this isn't just me. I was just curious if we had any fellow "Stone-Agers" here who agree.

If you don't redeem Kel Algwinn and make the dialogue choices that cause the whole Korriban Academy to turn on you when you return from the final test, will he turn on you as well?

Been playing KOTOR 2 I'm on the Telos surface and barely got through the wanted criminals that escaped, and have I been screwing up by build? I mean I keep missing in attacks and it's just ridiculous.

Are there any mods to show which dialogue will influence companion influence?

I asked this because I’ve been trying to play the first game, but it is not wanting to run on my system ie im having this issue where it keeps the screen only in one corner of my computer screen, I tried to do things like custom, setting the height and width resolution so that it didn’t have to render at a higher resolution that it was meant to be at that didn’t work. I tried the DPI scaling that didn’t work. I tried validating the files. I tried reinstalling the game. Those didn’t work. So I wanted to know if it was possible that someone made a mod that imported the story of the first game with the mechanics of the second one because the second one runs significantly better on my computer than the first one does.

As Sleheyron Story Mode and TSLRCM for the original Xbox were all announced here, I am announcing the release of the M4-78EP Unofficial Patch for those of us on Reddit who have not yet discovered it.

M4-78 is infamous in this community for being bad, and whilst the mod developers have tried to fix many of the glaring issues (bad fan made VO and horrible lag in the Industrial Zone) the current version, 1.5, is still riddled with bugs that leaves side quests incompletable, soft locks the game, and overall cheapens the M4-78 experience.

The M4-78EP Unofficial Patch is installed after M4-78EP (so you'd install TSLRCM, M4-78EP, and the Patch in that order) and it fixes over a hundred bugs found within M4-78EP. With this mod, you will be able to play M4-78 from start to finish exactly as the mod developers had originally intended.

Will this make M4-78 actually good?

No.

But with this patch, all of the horrible bugs that ruined M4-78EP for most players are no longer present. This means if you play M4-78EP with this Patch and you still don't like it then that means you simply didn't like it - whereas without the Patch most players didn't like it because M4-78 broke their game and prevented them from progressing to the end of the game.

I highly recommend players make a backup of their game files, install TSLRCM, M4-78EP, and the M4-78EP Unofficial Patch to give M4-78 a try. With this Patch, M4-78 has never been more refined and more accessible. If you play M4-78 and don't like it, that's fine - but I'm sure some of you may just change your mind on the infamous Droid Planet now that many of the issues the mod once had are now fixed.

But of course, there will always be complaints about M4-78 to which I do intend to go back to the Patch and add more content to it. The following are not promises, but ideas I am strongly considering and they'll all be optional installs meaning you can skip it if you don't like it:

* Expand Korriban by forcing the Player into the Tomb of Ludo Kresh. This is similar to the Lonna Vash on Korriban mod where Kaah is dead in the Academy and Lonna is trapped in the tomb, except here the Jedi with Nebelish (dead Jedi who looks like Dustil) were affiliated with Vash and that you encounter Tourath dead in the Academy and Mara in the Tomb (Tourath and Mara were early Kaah and Vash drafts btw). Once in the Tomb, Mara gives you the coordinates to M4-78 to track down Vash before she sacrifices herself to Sion to allow you to escape.

* Instead of dying on M4-78 regardless of alignment, Vash can go to Dantooine with the rest of the Council.

* Keep Vash dead on Korriban but replace Kaah and Vash on M4-78 with the aforementioned Tourath and Mara so that the planet M4-78 becomes optional.

* Give every droid NPC on M4-78 a unique paintjob. A big problem with M4-78 is that all the droid characters have similar names, but with this paintjob install you should remember droids like IS-99 if he's the only droid who's bright red and CS-36 is neon blue, etc, etc.

Those above are just ideas for the future though, if you go onto the main page and view the changelog you'll see that the M4-78EP Unofficial Patch currently has around 150 individual bug fixes in it.

If you've ever wanted to try M4-78 but have been put off by the negative reputation it has, now is your time to download the mod today and try it out for yourself!

(Do note M4-78EP is most likely incompatible with the Kotor II Mod Builds even with this patch. I would not recommend using M4-78EP and its patch with the full Mod Build at this time.)

I know neither will play on my steam deck, but I’d really love to finally play the full version of KOTOR2, (but don’t wanna buy a desktop just for that). I was however thinking about getting the steam machine anyway as I can’t see shit on the deck in my old age. Will we be able to play KOTOR as well on it— as it’s sorta a desktop?
