KOTOR I Ultimate Modding Guide | What Are The Best Mods?

[@The-Azure-Knight]

WARNING! The community patch and restoration mod are NOT compatible together. The game will crash a lot towards the end. So choose one or the other. The community has way more bug fixes but less content. The restoration mod has more content but less bug fixes and is incompatible with some things. Hope this helps

[@dunkelwelpling]

Thanks for the warning! After reading about what the restoration mod does. I thought: "Wait, that actually works with the community patch!? How will this not clash?", so i was searching if anyone wrote about it in the comments and found yours!

[@Kelphelp]

I always appreciate comments like these since course I don't know it all, but thr comments really help with that. Thank you both for posting. I'll pin this in the description too

Sorry this is not a guide, but just a list of the best modes. A guide would be showing the mods and how to install them properly. Great video, but it is not a guide.

[@Kelphelp]

The video would be twice as long and that's not worth doing. The readmes help with installation.

@@Kelphelp there is one more mod that I think is a very good mod it is called brotherhood of shadow Solomon's revenge it adds a lot of hours of extra content

[@Agel1ic]

Thanks, I wish there was a one single file to download since downloading multiple files is tiresome and time consuming.

[@Kelphelp]

Definitely wouldn't recommend it. Modding in itself is time consuming and you need to take time to make sure each installs properly. No way around iy

[@Coleorton7]

There's also a mod on Moddb that contains 64 KOTOR1 mods that were saved from FileFront before it got shut down, mods like Call to Aid, Revans Flowing Cape Mod, Clone Trooper & Stormtrooper replacements etc, all sorts, maybe you could do another KOTOR1 vid showing off these mods? :D

[@firewingphoenix8078]

does this make the game more difficult or alter the experience?

[@aldenyener7339]

Great guide. This is exactly the kind of thing I was looking for. But I wanted to point out: According the Ultimate Character Overhaul's mod page, UCO should be installed BEFORE the community patch, followed by said patch, and then followed by a compatibility patch provided in UCO's optional files tab. Granted, the mod page also says that skipping a "compatibility patch won't break your game in any way, all they do is improve mod texture quality to be on par with UCO." So at worst, following the install order in the video will give you a few inferior textures.

[@immodium]

Where does is say that on the UCO nexus page? There's a part about compatibility patches and how to install them. No mention of the community patch. EDIT: I see it mentioned in the optional files section.

[@frantaskachanka]

I wish the steam version could have a workshop for mods like KOTOR 2 they completely forgot about KOTOR 1. But I know there are others sites for modding this game but I’m just lazy to go look for them and installing the mods. I like how easy it’s to add mods in KOTOR 2 in steam just hit subscribe and bam all done.

[@Kelphelp]

That is true you do need TLC. But once you get them working you kinda set for life

[@frantaskachanka]

@@Kelphelp yeah I have kotor 1,2 on my super outdated Windows laptop stills has mods but the pc is just old I think that if I even to play with mods now on that pc it might explode but I’m running these 2 games currently on Max even though is not a gaming computer it handles me very well and with all of this mods. Is guess since my Mac that I currently have is quite faster. I first bought it for music production purposes so it has great processing power and runs smooth I guess the only thing I’m missing is just a real graphics card but don’t know if I can upgrade that on my Mac

[@demris15]

I'm always very apprciative of modders... I don't know how modding works, but I always wished they would make a comminity + patch with stable graphics updates/overhauls so you don't have to install 6 different files. I'm sure that would be a pain to manage though

[@Kelphelp]

Eh is what it is. At that point you have to consult each author to make that happen and not worth the time or effort for modders to do so. Take what you can get situation

[@njelle2006]

[@Three_Dog_Gaming]

Every time I play Kotor, I only level when when it forces me to. I save all my level ups until AFTER I get the jedi class. It makes Taris that much more challenging and you get more force powers.

[@Kelphelp]

Used to do the exact same. Just save up that experience snd boom, Dantooine becomes a complete joy

[@MLG_POTATO]

@@Kelphelp Most of them are Fen's retexture mods and all just say to put them in Override

[@stevencaskey9440]

This list is great and all, but how about where the hell do i put all this stuff. what folder,step by step instructions like im 2yrs old. Thanks

[@Kelphelp]

The Readme files in each mod should have an install section on how to do it. Install one at a time, try em out and you should be good from there.

[@acethegray]

Great video! Shame there isn't a mod that brings in the prestige classes and behaviors from Kotor 2.

You missed a few: There's a mod that replaces the ugly sprite looking crowd in the Arena with much more improved 3D models. Mods that replace the Default versions of Ajunta Pall, Lyn Sekla, and Selven with their supposed Canonical appearances. Mods that also improve the Lightsaber blades, add Revan's Canonical appearance to what he looked like in SWTOR, among many others.

Great video, and thanks for the advice! Does the character overhaul mod conflict with the individual redesigns for characters like Bastila? I haven't found any warnings about it on the mod pages, but I wonder, since they both seem to be changing the same thing.

Not that I know of, in fact I had separate Bastila face mods myself just to tidy up the model. Should be fine but install them AFTER the graphical mods or you will have issues.

Great video thanks! Just getting back into KotOR after a long while and getting my mods set up.

Does anyone reading this play with all of Fens characters AND UCO redux? And if so are their more conflicts down the line? I did try using Vortex mod manager for kotor but it didnt detect the Canderous conflict and didnt uninstall or disable mods correctly so i reverted to a clean slate and installed manually with good results. I would like Fens mods and uco working together but i dont know if that is possible.

[@Kelphelp]

Glad it helped! I sometimes use Fens but not all characters. Some of them do physically deviate from the source which isn't the best IMHO. Personally if I could I also like to avoid mod managers so I can simply transfer the files to different PCs at home so I can okay from multiple sources

[@TheDKsports]

How do you install all these mods?

[@Kelphelp]

The Readme file of each mod should have an installation guide. Follow that, troubleshoot each mod so it's working and you should be good

[@felipeadami83]

You should explain how to install the mods like Sinitar did for the witcher 3 modding guide, which i think is a reference for this video of yours.

[@Kelphelp]

I feel like the readmes can usually do that job. It's usually why I don't. And I have no idea who that is at all.

[@enrique6335]

Installing mods for KOTOR and TSL is super easy. Most of the time you just dump files into the Override folder located on the main game installation folder or create it if it isn't there, but yeah, reading the readmes is one of those "best practices" in modding.

[@Kelphelp]

Its amazing how many people always ask to install them when imho can be pretty redundant because "readmes".

[@gantzllat]

So what I am hearing is I don't want to mod Knights of the Old Republic. Not to demerit the modding community, they've done a wonderful job. Is just that when I mod a game is usually after finishing the game to have more content. I don't care about graphics, resolutions and bug fixes, those are just added flavour for what I'm really looking for after modding which is more of the game. More builds, more weapons and armor, more quests that sort of thing. And Kotor does not seem to have that kind of mods, all mods seem to be aiming to remaster the game to a more modern experience and I just don't care about that. At least is better than the modding community of kingdom come which are almost exclusively trying to make the game easier.

[@Kelphelp]

Usually elements like there's aren't necessary for KOTOR because there is much more interest In a remastered approach rather than additional content. Unless it's developed cut content, not many individuals are interested. KOTOR is considered one of the best RPGs ever made, so there isn't anything that needs to be updated other than texture assets

[@gantzllat]

@@Kelphelp i noticed. I started playing recently and have come quite far so I decided to formulate the mod list for when I finish it. There are some mechanic problems I was hoping to fix for the next playthrough with mods however. Persuade doesn't see much use, the amount of repair parts is unbalanced same with comspikes and ranged builds are next to worthless with blasters seeing less damage and accuracy for the same amount of points investment. The writing is good however, very good, the level design is also good although I would have liked for more stealth options though, as it is the game hard rails you into the melee build. There is some narrative justification for that though so I can tolerate it.

[@Kelphelp]

I would argue stealth is more of a feature than a main objective use. The game forces some kind of offensive build with different varieties but considering you are a Jedi, there are multiple ways of going through that. It doesn't offer the builds of say earlier elder scroll games but it's more focused on 3 builds.

[@death2sion333]

Is there a certain order I have to do for these mods

[@Kelphelp]

I would recommend doing it in the order of the video to be safe. Test each one out after you install to avoid problems.

[@death2sion333]

What’s the first mod

[@Kelphelp]

Check the order of the video and copy that

[@Shadowruin89]

sorry, but this is not a "modding guide". its mod suggestions

[@Kelphelp]

And?

[@Michael-lc4gr]

No offence but as the 'ultimate guide' I was hoping for a section on how to actually mod the game. Thanks for introducing some mods though.

[@Kelphelp]

If I actually showed how to install them the video would be 3x as long, and the Readme guides are pretty self explanatory. Never did say this was a modding instalation guide either

[@solsth31m]

All of them have instructions on the readme file when you extract them. As long as you can find your game's directory it becomes mostly straightforward

[@alexander27ja]

it will run on my intel hd and 6gb ram? :( ( the only thing i have pretty decent is my i7 of 5th lol) nice video buddy! thanks a lot!

[@michaelm541]

Im a purist haha. Had to run through the game once on vanilla. Now time to change things up!

[@Kelphelp]

Exactly, going vanilla then back is the best way, but these are mostly quality of life mods, not ones that change the overall gameplay.

[@michaelm541]

Yeah I probably should have used them lol but I wanted the most OG experience. Like for Kotor 2 I didnt even run restored content just to get the OG experience. Which I know is a sin but oh well I'll run thru it again sometime

[@Kelphelp]

I wouldn't say it is and I 100% get your perspective. I was one of those guys when I finished KOTOR 2 in 2004, I had no idea what the ending was but restored content helped piece it together. I'm the same way so don't worry man 😂

Reason people don't drop it is if you have the same save that uses different mods might not load correctly. So better to go private save than modded if that's the case

Can the community patch or restoratiin mod do something so that i can still play the game after finishing it

[@matteste]

To me, the game crashes frequently whenever I try to loot certain chests and other stuff even with the community patch. I have no idea if a certain chest will cause the game to crash or not forcing me to save whenever I am going to loot something. And interestingly, it is always the same ones so it doesn't seem to be random.

[@TwoShooZ]

What monitor did you use to play KOTOR 1? I'm using a 1360 x 768 with most of the mods you used and the first line of dialogue always gets cut off when I start the game when I talk to any NPC. Really want to play this the right way

[@Kelphelp]

Yea anything lower than 1080p will be difficult. Unless you have that it's going to be challenging. I'm using 2560 x 1080, but can be played in 1920 x 1080

[@TwoShooZ]

@@Kelphelp Thanks for the response Kelphelp! I try to make due with how the game runs despite the first dialogue being invisible but I might get a 1920 x 1080 monitor and see if that makes a difference. Really hope Aspyr is remaking this game or will at least update KOTOR 1 for PC like they did KOTOR 2
