Great mod. I do have a couple of issues with it

Matilda's head wasn't right on my second play through with it. I had a lot of mods installed along with it so I am sure that that is the source of my problem :)

Second, save points. It seems after you go to the white room, there are no chances to save your game. Any chance the sequel could address this? Or is there a way to save that I couldn't figure out?

Hey Mr. Soulaxe,

The head problem is experienced with ALOT of people, and as myself and SilverEdge have said many times, it's the override problem.

Secondly, there is a way to save, although I'm not sure how, It's called Quick Save, try asking some of the more senior members around here!

Yep,

Hey, my brother recently played through this, said it was pretty cool and liked it alot. However, when he got to the torture scene in the Unknown World, instead of Bastila, it was Matilda who was there and then, she left the party! Is this supposed to happen?

Hey! how it going? I having a problem when I talk to the bith on Tatoonie. Whenever I ask the bith if his ship is talked and he agrees to show me, the scene goes dark slowly, and i'm assuming that is when I get to a new scene and start the main quest. However, after the scene goes dark, That's is it. It just goes dark. I'm still in the cantina and i can switch between the party with the 'tab' key, but that is it.

I have the mod up to v1.07 and i do have several other mods, but all of them are restorations (both areas and dialog). Is there anything i can do to fix this?

And, i'm also sorry if this is the wrong place to put this post.

Thank you in advance!

Not sure why this would happen. Try installing the mod and patch, and then if that doesn't do anything. When the screen goes black, you will have to open up the console and type "warp ship".

I will say first of all that I am thoroughly impressed with this mod. Almost everything you did "felt" like it belonged. More than one "Wow" escaped my lips while playing it.

Now, onto my issue....

On the Orion Matilda appeared as a human republic female in blue republic armor (the same armor Trask wears in the very beginning of the game, except it is blue).

During the cutscenes Matilda appeared as an old man in the blue republic armor.

While recruiting her she appeared again as the human republic female.

After recruiting her and currently, she appears as the same human republic female in the blue republic armor, regardless of what I have equipped on her.

(For the record, every BoS npc/mob looked like an old man in the blue republic armor....not sure if they were supposed to look like that or not)


So, using Fred's KotOR tool I hopped into the appearance, heads and portraits 2da files. I looked at your included 2da's and deduced that the 2da file I had was pointing textures and heads and such to all sorts of things, except what you intended for Matilda.

I then corrected where everything was supposed to be pointing for Matilda.

Matilda STILL is the human republic female in the blue republic armor. Nothing I have done has fixed it.

The only other Mod I am using that affects the game on any kind of grand scale is the Yavin 4 planet mod.

Any advice?

Hello everyone.
I know this is kind of late, but i have only just downloaded the original BoS mod and have a question about it. I installed the mod but have no further savegames of the original KOTOR, and therefore didn't beat it recently. My question is if you have to beat the originial Story/Game in order to be able to play BoS.
I'd appreciate an answer,

To folks like me who have a godawful amount of mods. BoS does not play nicely with other mods. I've had to create a separate override file for the visions to trigger correctly, and then switch back once I have Matilda in the party (as the rest works), but the play-through is well worth it.

It does not appear to work too well with Yavin IV, and the problem there lies in the appearance.2da file Using a merged 2da file (2da merger) makes elements of BoS not trigger, leaving you standing around like a fool during the flashbacks.

Place: just about The whole mod

Problem: During the Entire mod, just about everything has the wrong Skin. Matilda is a Yoda-Race, the Guy that gives you the original quest is wearing Revan the White Robes from RedHawke's Item Pack, as is the Sith in the Main Quest. The Mechanic is a Female Blue Twilek, and the Matilda in the Flashback is a Rodian. The two Admirals are Both Duros, and two of the Jedi in the Flashback are wearing odd clothing, one is in a Dark Jedi suit, the other is a Mandalorian (Full Armored).

Mods installed: EZswoop, Mission Vao as Darth Talon, New DS Underwear, All three RedHawke Item Packs (Bastila/Sith, Droid item, Revan the White), Make Mission a Jedi Mod, with Booster

Additional: I am given 10 Warnings when I try to install the pack:

Warning: A file named ship2_loc.mod already exists in the lips folder. Skipping file

Because you did not uninstall your game. None of the above warning correspond to anything in your Override folder... if you read the warning, it tells you which folders the files are in.... You have installed BoS on top of itself, and you have installed it with a bunch of older mods that were not made with the handy TSLPatcher for easy installations. The files that were skipped were skipped because they are already (and still) installed.

I recommend for you this - and it ain't nothing nice - start over. Keep your saves if you like, although some will be invalidated by your more correct re-installation process.

Install your mods in this order -

1. All RedHawke mods - they are self compatible by design. This includes Make Mission a Jedi.
2. Consider seriously whether or not you want/need both Mission mods - I think you should choose one or the other, and I suspect the source of your problem lies in either one of those mods appearance.2da's.
3. Underwear mod. EZSwoop.
4. Last, as you did before, BoS.

Rest assured, BoS is not the source or your appearance.2da problems. If you have BoS alone installed with your game, all things will appear as they should.

I really believe the core of your problem is with the Mission as Talon/Make Mission a Jedi mods.

Just so I'm clear, and I'm not actually just checking something wrong, if I replace the files in the folder, then load a saved game, the changes should happen if their correct now? I didn't like the Darth Talon/ Mission Robes thing, because her head was red-tatooed, and her body was blue, so I removed the Darth Talon, and ended up at one point removing the file that gave her a head, but then when I fixed it, It righted itself from the same file. If I have everything set up correctly, I should be seeing Matilda as a Twi'lek, not a Vander-thing, when I load up, right? Because I'm not.

Assuming that you have indeed properly fixed the entries in your 2da's and utc files than everything should work just fine if you start a new game. BUT, in order to get the cosmetic changes (Matilda's correct appearance) to take effect in your saved game you will need to use KSE to edit her appearance and soundsets.

Btw Silveredge, I'm just now playing your mod for the first time and I must say that from what I've played so far, you've done an excellent job. My hats off to you mate! ;)

If the Matilda Cosmetic change wouldn't apply until there is a new save game, why would Mission be changed everytime I loaded it up with a different file. I went from Darth Talon, to Headless, and back to regular Head, after I removed the files, but I never started a new game, I just continued with the save file. I've reset my Entire game like 3 times, and I am still having the same problem. The Mechanic is a Female Twi'lek, both the Sith and the original Rodian are in RedHawke's Revan the White Uniform, Matilda is a Vander on Orion, but a Rodian in the flashbacks. Its really annoying, particularly the Matilda, because the Dark-side Vander Model doesn't have any Feat sets, so she freezes up when she uses Flurry or Critical Strike or Power Attack

When your game loads something it goes into your actual save-game. Every item, NPC, container. etc is all saved to your save game so when you fiddled around with Mission you were altering something that was on a fixed line in appearance.2da loaded into your save game, so you saw the changes, but your added custom NPC's from that mod has loaded with their NPC utc files referring to incorrect lines in appearance.2da, you will need to edit your save with KSE or you will need to use a save game from before you met them. I would suggest you use an earlier save so you can indeed confirm that the mods are working as intended.

Problem: Well there is no obvious way out so I thought you would be able to talk to Daemon but it won't let you. I'm not sure if it's my inability to find the exit or maybe a glitch. There are no doors to get out.
Point: Right after your first battle w/ Brotherhood of Shadow.

I ask this because I've been in the Great White Void for six hours and still haven't been able to get out.Sounds like a glitch, try replaying from the autosave.
