I removed KOTOR II from my system a while ago, and have no desire to play it again, patch or no patch. The list of fixes is just too short for a game with so many bugs.

That game is as dead as a Dodo.

p.s. When the TSL Restoration Project mod is finished, I might give it another try.

So it seems. But the only thing that would really please most of us, after all, is LucasArts shelling out extra cash to Obsidian to finish the game.

But LucasArt is more fast with cashing money then to paying money so , we will never see this day , not in a million yrs if you know what i mean .

Hopefully the "restoration project" will be good , even if its only the ½ of we think it could be , that would be nice ...

As long as kids will buy something, LucasArts will sell it, even if it's substandard.

Wonder if the ATI fix is the fix for dantooine. Would eleminate much stress for many I think, if so....

Any US people that can enlighten us?

I'm pretty sure you don't need to be in the US. I'm Asia-Pacific, and I updated this morning.

It isn't about actual location, but about game-versions. You are perhaps playing the US version ?

Having the EU version, I doubt very much (from experience) that a patch for the US version will work wonders for my game :)

No, I have the Asia-Pacific version.

EDIT: I was going through the patch logs and I discovered, this patch was apparently availible on the 30th March.

how is that yay. i've got an xbox aswell. This sux man. the xbox can't get the patch unless you can do it through xbox live, which still dosen't help because i can't use abox live because my comp doesn't have any ethernet ports. i didn't read all of the first thread so i don't know all the deatils, but has it got all that added storyline at the end which they cut out. actully know don't tell me coz then ill want it more an i can't have it. now if you'll excuse me im goin to go throw myself in front of a car and forget about this patch.

So there are separate versions of the patch? So when will the EU version come out?

by Ripe
There is no EU version, you have either UK, German, French, Italian or Spanish version (only those versions are listed) and according to LA support page patch is out for all version.
