TheKotOR 1 Restoration Mod is an attempt to restore almost all the content that was cut from the game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic by BioWare Corp. Of course, these restorations will be within reason and things that were cut because they did not fit with the plot, and cannot be made to fit with the plot, will most definitley NOT be restored.

- Impossible Difficulty, a cut option for difficulty that is harder than the Vanilla "Hard" difficulty

- Carth dialogue when the PC first awakens on Taris, Carth makes a few comments about the PC's injuries. (Thanks to zbyl2 for this!)

- Numerous restorations to the Lower City

- Numerous restorations to the Under City

- Restoration of the Black Vulkar Base Sublevel

- Restored Droid Items

- Restoration of some dialgoue with Niklos in the Uppper City Cantina

- Restoration of the Duel Ring announcer in the Taris Upper City Cantina. The announcer will be available to speak to in between fights.

- Zaerdra Swoop Platform Dialogue, Zaerdra will make some final comments to the PC on the prototype accelerator before intitiating your first run with it

- Sith Base, numerous restorations

- Sarna and Yun Genda are available to talk to members of the same sex and can be used to further the plot of Taris. Albeit, in different ways than they normally do.

- Iriaz Restoration, returns the Iriaz to the plains of Dantooine. (Thanks to Seamhiann for this!)

- Garrum and Tar'eelok Restoration, returns a cut padawan and master to the Jedi Enclave. (Thanks to Seamhiann for this!)

- Restoration of cut items within the Jedi Enclave

- Shen and Rahashia Indecent Proposal, the PC can make a rather indecent, and awkward, proposal to either Shen or Rahasia depending upon the PC's gender.

- The file called plc_glowpudl.utp had the name of "Glowing Puddle" however when placed in game it looked like a blood puddle. The model file and textures have been changed so now the glowing puddle placeable makes a glowing puddle of green liquid. It can be seen in the new module, tar_m03ac, or the swoop platform non-racing version.

- Modified Iriaz from Seamhiann's modules so there were less of them, they fought against the Kath Hounds, and usually stayed in their small areas.

- Restored Crattis dialogue to sell lightsaber crystals.

- A swathe of Jawa-work on Tatooine.

- Restored dialogue with Bastila's Mother.

- Restored shape-shifting for Genoharadan Rulan on Kashyyk.

- Pazaak Tournament on Manaan.

- Restored Party Dialogue on Sea Floor.

- Alternate way into Sith Base on Manaan.

- Funny dialogue with bartender on Korriban.

- Alternate route on Leviathan.

- Goodies on Unknown World, including restored Injured Sith Apprentice.

- Restored Female Dark Side Ending.

- Restored the True Form of the Sith Armor Quest on Taris


Taris:

- Item Duplication exploit with Brejik's gear

- Dueling exploit to get two of Bendak's Blaster

- Zelka's assistant Gurney informs you about selling the serum after you've given it to Zelka


Dantooine:

- Resolving the Sandral-Matale Feud peacefully would allow you to keep talking to Rahasia and restarting the cutscene

- Wandering Jedi near the Ebon Hawk forgot to keep walking after they were done talking to you


Ebon Hawk:

- Infinite DS exploit when you make Sasha leave the ship. Her leaving is now part of the dialog

- Originally, Bastila only had three comments on the visions. A line was re-used for a fourth interaction, allowing you to see all four visions if you travel between planets before the Leviathan


Manaan:

- Bug in the Iridonian Mercenary's dialog would make it seem to freeze, requiring you to hit 1 or 2 to proceed

- Elora would confess to Sunry's affair if Bastila or Jolee is present, but you wouldn't get any plot EXP from it

- Bug in Ignus the hotel owner's dialog, preventing him from testifying for you if you Force Persuade him

- Getting exiled from Manaan would not remove any unfinished quests on the planet


Korriban:

- Mismatched soundsets for the three Sith that attack you in the Valley of the Sith Lords

- Blowing up the pillar in Ajunta Pall's Tomb; you could still interact with objects and permanently glitch out whicever party members are with you. Now changed to a dialog instead of an inventory

- Having to fight your way out of the Sith Academy would not remove any prestige quests that you would never be able to turn in


General stuff:

- Bug during Xor's ambush that would prevent Ziagrom and any other messengers from ever spawning, locking you out of a unique store and the other party members' quests

- Many TLK corrections involving grammar and typos.


Taris:

- Playing Pazaak with a mechanic in the Vulkar Base would not update the "Pazaak Rules" quest

- Bug between Rakghouls and a Sith Patrol in the Sewers, interrupting their dialog

- Interaction with Main Level computer in the Vulkar Base giving a node error

- Angry Aqualish in the Vulkar Base Sub-level would have two triggers to his conversation

- Vulkar Coward on the Main Level had a blank line with audio

- Gamorrean Cleaver had several issues involving description, name, and wielding

- Elevator Passcodes and the "One for the Mechanic" quest not disappearing after Taris


The Leviathan:

- All doors involved in all of Major Hurka's cutscenes now close at the right times

- Two guards now walk into the Medical Bay properly

- Lip-sync corrections all-around with Major Hurka's content

- Cutscenes for Major Hurka now play out only once and work properly in all (hopefully) conditions

- If you use Major Hurka, you are now able to also see Canderous' comm message like you normally would have


Taris:

- Retracted the added NPCs in the Lower City (due to them being custom content)

- Retracted the added NPCs (Caalin and his bodyguards) from the Vulkar Base Sublevel

(due to them being custom content)

- Streamlined the Vulkar Base's restored content; should be understandable and easy to follow

- Fixed the issue with interacting with the Sith Guard beside the elevator into the Lower City

- Fixed holes in the Sith Armor Quest that would prevent obtaining a second set

- Fixed issues revolving around Yun Genda and Sarna's dialog about the party


Dantooine:

- Fixed all the Jedi around the Ebon Hawk on Dantooine to keep on walking after talking

- Fixed Iriaz-Kath Hound relations

- Restored a Mandalorian Datapad that was previously unobtainable in-game

- When you recruit Juhani, she should be wearing actual clothing

- Fixed an occurence where certain dialog options with Shen and Rahasia would cause them to not appear at the Jedi Enclave when the should have


Manaan:

- Fixed occurrences and movements of the restored Echani Mercenary and Gonto Yas

- Restored Gonto Yas at the Manaan Hotel (Go to the hotel after the Pazaak Tourney to see the new dialog)

- Restored Hukta Jax and his thugs attacking the PC for winning the swoop race

- Re-arranged and edited Pazaak Tourney dialogs to try to avoid game-breaking errors


Alternatively, a secondary installer has been made for convenience. It will not patch the files like the TSL Patcher will, but it should be less of a headache for most users. HOWEVER, IT WILL NEED TO BE INSTALLED BEFORE ANY OTHER MODS!!!


Note: The K1R team is not responsible for any incompatibility issues that may arise from the use of this mod in conjunction with other mods. Also, in order to provide the best feedback for us we recommend that you play K1R with NO other mods installed.


Note 2: If using the TSL Patcher AND your game is in English, before installing, copy the dialog.tlk file bundled with this package into the KotOR directory. This will give you the grammar and typo fixes to the vanilla text.


1) Go to DeadlyStream ( ) and search for the user Fair Strides ( -fair-strides/ )

2) Send a private message with as much detail as possible of what is occurring in your game. He will likely report back to you within a week.


ZM90:

-Restored "Impossible Difficulty" to the game.

-Restored the majority of Juhani's cut dialog.

-Restored Sharina Fizark on Dantooine.

-Restoration of the cut Dantooine lockers.

-Restoration of the alternate darkside female ending

-Restoration of a few other surprises so keep a eye out!

-MANY Fixes and restorations throughout the game


Fair Strides:

-Finished restoration of injured sith apprentice

-Secret surprise in Unknown World Temple :D

-Pazaak Tournament on Manaan (with advice and aid from ZM90 and advice from LDR and Fallen Guardian)

-Bug-fixed the Demo, created installer

-Restored Rulan's Shape-shifting and Wookie Amulet.


LiliArch:

-Various adjustments and fine-tuning of the Taris Lower City

-Hex-editing models for low-end computers

-Texture fix for the Scoundrel (Male only?) clothing that I had honestly never noticed until you said something


Dan Loto:

-Taris Lower City module, tar_m03aa

-Taris Lower City module, Dan Loto's permission to edit some things. Namely the citizens will be attacked by the Vulkars and the vulkar scout will no longer have player initiated dialogue but script initiated.

-Random walk script, real2. File name changed to rw, but all of the coding is Dan Loto's work.


At least for me, even installing this thing in the first place is a matter of luck. I have gotten the TSLpatcher installer to run a grand total of three times; every other time, Windows has suddenly decided to take it issue with it creating temporary files and folders in the K1R directory in the middle of installation. And every time, the offending file is one of the ones pertaining to the Pazaak tournament on Manaan (enter_paz.ncs, if you're curious). This makes reinstalling in the event of a problem extremely frustrating. It makes me think that the Pazaak tournament should be made an optional submodule like the Vulkar Base Sublevel, or that there should be a manual installation guide. Or both.
