If you talk to Kreia, and if you view the loading screen messages, it says Sion and Nihilus and the third one, Kreia, each learned a different technique at Malachor V. The knowledge of how to become that existed at the Trayus Academy, and still does. Now, there is one HUGE disadvantage to having a fast PC on this game: the load screens go past before you can read them. I resorted to screenshotting a couple of them. The real reason the Star Forge is not known about is Revan never told anyone, and the Republic covered it up, fearing there may be more devices like that out there. It's not something you want publicized to all Sith as well as friendly forces.

A couple graphics tricks: a GeForce FX 5600 with 256 memory can run the game just fine with max graphics normally. In a couple areas, though, you should disable shadows, and maybe frame buffering. Grass doesn't put nearly as big a drain as shadows, and Malachor V will bring the card to its knees if shadows are enabled. Frame buffering does not have a huge effect on other performance or appearance, but it does one VERY nice thing when you disable it: gets rid of the blur when using Force Speed and its derivatives. So if that bothers you, you can get rid of it (good riddance).
