Leilukin's Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Mod Build

Welcome to Leilukin’s Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Mod Build!

Here I am compiling a list of all the modifications, or mods in short, that I use for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (KotOR), the single-player role-playing video game set in the Star Wars universe video game developed by BioWare, for the best experience with the game. This document is made for my reference and to share with others.

In order to prevent mod conflicts as much as possible, installation order matters a lot if you are using many mods for the KotOR games. Therefore, the full list of my mod build below has been arranged in the proper installation order to make these mods compatible. If you are interested in following my mod build, you should install the mods in the order you are presented with them. Also, when you install the mods according to my build, overwrite any files when prompted.

I usually play KotOR 1 on GOG, though I also own the Steam version of KotOR 1.

The format of this mod list is inspired by KOTOR Community Portal's mod lists.

(This mod list was last updated on 7 June 2025)

IMPORTANT NOTE: My KotOR 1 mod build is not compatible with the KotOR 1 Restoration (K1R) mod.

I have no plans on including K1R in my mod build because:

• The mod has a mixed reception.
• There are known bugs with the mod.
• I have read the list of content restored by K1R, and in my opinion some of those content were cut for good reasons.
• The mod has not been updated since 2017, and most of the K1R’s development team, including the project leader, has disappeared from the KotOR modding scene, so do not expect updates any time soon.
• Some of the mods that I consider essential to my KotOR 1 playthrough are not compatible with K1R.

WARNING: The full list of my mod build contains spoilers for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic!

My mod build is not designed for new KotOR players, so I will not censor any information that contains spoilers for the game. In general, I do not recommend using mods in your very first playthrough of any video game, so you can judge and choose which mods you want to use after finishing the game for the first time. The only exceptions are the KotOR 1 Community Patch for KotOR 1 and The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod for KotOR, which are absolutely essential mods that even if you want to use them in your first playthrough, you definitely have my support.

If you are going to play KotOR for the first time, and you do not mind using mods, I would suggest checking out the Spoiler-Free version of KotOR Community Portal’s KotOR mod builds instead.

The mods I included in my mod build are divided into the following categories, which clarifies the types of changes the mod makes:

Added Content

Added content is an entirely fan-made new content that is not intended in the vanilla game.

Appearance Change

Appearance change is not inherently graphics improvement, but rather a modification to the default appearance of a character, item, location, interface, etc.

Bugfix

As the name implies, this type of mod fixes bugs with the vanilla game.

Graphics Improvement

This type of mod improves the graphics in the vanilla game in some way, by retexturing and/or remodeling a character, item, location, etc. Usually these mods come with high-resolution textures.

Immersion

These mods are not inherently bugfixes, but changes done to improve the internal consistency of the game’s content.

Mechanics Change

This type of mod makes changes to the game’s system which directly impacts the way you play the game, varying from changing the camera angle of a location to altering the core stats of a class.

Modified Content

Modified content is not inherently new content, but rather alterations to the vanilla game’s content because the vanilla content has some shortcomings. The changes made by this kind of mod were never intended to be in the vanilla game.

Patch

A patch is a simple mod that changes the function of another mod, either by fixing bugs, resolving mod conflicts or altering content made by another mod.

Restored Content

This type of mod restores content that has been cut from the vanilla game.

Sound Change

As the name implies, these mods make changes to the sound in the vanilla game. The sound could be music or ambient audios.

The tiers for each mod included in my mod build are not necessarily a judgement on the quality of the mods themselves. In my mod builds, mod tiers are ranked on a scale of 1-4, based on how important the individual mods are for my experience with the KotOR games.

Tier 1 - Essential

This tier indicates mods that I cannot play the KotOR games without. Usually this is because I find those mods make very crucial changes to the game, typically by fixing things that bother me the most in the vanilla game. Similarly, mods of the Patch category that belong to this tier make critical changes to other mods. I consider excluding Tier 1 mods will negatively affect my experience with the KotOR games.

Tier 2 - Very Important

This tier indicates mods that vastly improve my experience with the game. Mods belong to this tier are the bread and butter of my mod build. That said, unlike Tier 1 mods, excluding Tier 2 mods from my playthrough does not actively make my KotOR experience worse either.

Tier 3 - Somewhat Important

This tier indicates mods that make changes that are in smaller scope or more subjective compared to Tier 1 and Tier 2 mods. Usually this is because the changes made by Tier 3 mods are less noticeable or more of a matter of personal taste.

Tier 4 - Optional

This tier indicates mods that make even smaller or more subjective changes than Tier 3 mods, to the point that using these mods is optional. I include Tier 4 mods in my build for the purpose of maximizing my immersion, or because I use these mods for customization purposes for my characters.

Note that while this is the best KotOR movie cutscene mod for to date, this mod has a huge file size (at least 15 GB), so if you have poor Internet connection or limited drive space, it would be a better idea to use Naelavok's version of remastered cutscenes below instead.

Leilukin’s Comment

Just the fact that this mod makes Persuade a class skill for the player character of any class is already enough to make this mod essential to me. As a KotOR player who is more interested in role-playing than min-maxing, a mod that allows greater flexibility for character customization is very welcome.

Leilukin’s Comment

I have always preferred the Ebon Hawk camera angle in KotOR 2, and disliked the vanilla KotOR 1 version as the camera is too close to the player character, making it rather difficult to see the surroundings of the Ebon Hawk because of how much the player character takes up the screen, so I consider this mod essential.

To be honest, I am not a huge fan of both Bastila and Carth’s romances in-game. For Bastila’s romance, it’s because I do not like how pushy the player character’s romance dialogue is towards Bastila. As for Carth’s romance, as a lesbian I do not like how the game pushes Carth the “main” romance option for female PCs while a lesbian option in Juhani exists at the same time.

Juhani’s romance is by far my favourite romance in KotOR 1, despite how little content it has. This mod is essential because it improves Juhani’s romance by allowing a female player character who has successfully romanced Juhani to kiss the Cathar woman.

If you are interested in romancing Juhani, I have written a detailed Juhani Romance Guide on how to complete Juhani’s romance.

Description

This is a program which modifies your game's executable file to be able to utilize up to 4 gigabytes of RAM, since the KotOR games are 32-bit applications and by default can only utilize 2 gigabytes. This will help the game run smoothly even with large texture mods, and also reduces issues caused by a memory leak which is native to the game, preventing crashes and savegame corruption.

In addition to the mods above, I also use some face and Jedi robe reskins of my player character that were for personal use only.
