I'm also having the same problem with KOTOR 1 on Android. I heard that starting a game on PC and editing the save would resolve the issue but this didn't work for me. Anyone else having this problem or know any possible solutions?
Hello. I'm the guy who made the 3.3.4 and 3.3.5 versions of KSE, and I'll tell you guys what I just told someone in an email:
"Hmm... Well, The reason why you have to select it twice is also the same reason why it's failing. KSE was designed for the PC version of the games and so looks for the files that would be installed should the game be on the system.
It was never designed for the mobile devices, though if you have the PC version you can edit your mobile games just fine.
Were I to re-design the program, it wouldn't be as easy to work with as it is now, but it would be more flexible. By this, I mean that I could figure out the formats the mobile games use (essentially compressed versions of the original formats, but still...) but it would also mean that there could be almost no image support."
And I don't have the Android version of KotOR to examine, so for now...
Also, some people have supposedly gotten it to work, but for what it's worth:
