Kotor 2 Restored Content

Well I played it a very long time ago so not sure I'll even remember what was in and wasn't.

Bugger I only just re-installed this late last week - am already about half way through though so can't face playing it from the beginning again right now >.<

anyone know to get it working on vista 64?

When i load the game it just stops responding.

All patched up, tried running the loading + main game exe as admin and sp2 compat, any other ideas :S

There was a graphics option I had to turn off from the launcher before it would run in Vista for me. Can't remember what it was now unfortunately, I'm running on Win7 now.

I think I had that... I think it had something to do with a file to replace ? I googled it for a bit and found the answer I think.

Sound file needs replacing.

Arg

. Just coming to the end of a rerun of KOTOR. Can't decide to try this as dark or light side.

I never made it through Telos IV before, the game just totally bugged out for me

I will have to try again though

The first game was epic.

I'll maybe give this another shot because I never completed it the first time.

Yeah it's not a patch on the first.

Combat and powers from KOTOR2 with KOTOR's storyline would have been epic.

Sleepery · 7 Oct 2009 at 12:49

KOTOR 2 was a slow starter, but got a lot better once you got off Telos and were able to go where you wanted, I think the story (if it hadn't been cut to bits) would have been a lot more interesting than the KOTOR1 one.

Hopefully this mod will do that.

There are mods for both games, that give you tons of extra force powers.

Some amazing mods for Kotor actually, I really like the concept art loading screens.

'Wes · 7 Oct 2009 at 16:09

This is why i hope people don't get disappointed with the TOR, expecting it to be brilliant just like the first and second KOTOR and not realising it will be a completely different type of game because it's online.

i managed to fix it, just had to replace a dll file, tho it took me about 3 downloads to get the right one

AhhhH! I knew it was to do with a file!

I remember that crash driving me crazy...

Though I think you could use the original Kotor 1 file or something, which is what I ended up doing. Was a while since I installed it. :confused:

Has anyone got some recommendations for mods for the original KOTOR?

I usually just use the force powers one personally. There are a few others, but mostly save game editors so that I can be a jedi at the start since I already played through it once.

'Brotherhood of Shadow - Solomons Revenge' is a must! It's one of the most impressive mods I've ever played. Voice-acted with a story that rivals that of the main game. New areas, NPCs, Companions (including one permanant that fills a 'gap' later on) quests, equipment... And there's quite a few hours worth of play in it. Some of it's flash-back based and does a brilliant job of filling in the backstory of the main game. One character specifically is so well executed and the voice-acting professionally done you'll forget you're playing a mod.

Seriously, you have to get it!
