Be Gentle I'm New at This...

Ok... I've had this game for about a week and gone through it once without a hitch but now I've found one and it's driving me nuts.

TELOS... the secret Jedi Enclave/School.

All of the normal triggers aren't happening and I can't for the life of me figure out how to free my friends and get the heck off the planet.

When you come to the "last" handmaiden the old lady and Atton are off to the side. Everytime you click on her, nothing happens; every time I click on him I have two options, only one of which does anything -- sends me to Attris and that same long winded conversation she has earlier with your character about the trial, etc. I've repeated that scenario at least six times now answering differently and still nothing changes except my light side points are higher than ever.

When I go to the droid it normally gives me an option to let down the forcefield and set him free... no such thing happening!

The Horned dude is passed out in his holding cell and absolutely no interaction, no way of turning off the cells (and I went so far as to use mines to break them down).

My character is a Sentinel (if that helps any)

But I'm stuck in this space and can't trigger any kind of action change or find any kind of clue as to what to do next as far as freeing everyone and getting out of dodge.

HELP!

First of all welcome to the forum & I hope you get much info out of it. The walkthrough here is excellent compared to other sites out there. Fell free to ask questions, but be careful.... the moderators here prefer you to try a search for the subject first.

You have a known bug in the game that requires you to go back to a saved game somewhere before going to the academy, I do not believe there is any other fix available at present time.

Also, welcome fellow Western Masser. I'm in Ludlow, outside Springfield myself

The TSL restoration project guys have come up with a patch to fix one bug in the secret academy in telos. Not sure if it is this one though. You could try it - download it at http://www.team-gizka.org/downloads.html

Wow, I didn't know of this bug...

Wow. I didn't know that KOTOR 2 has this type of bug. Never encountered it so far when playing it. My game was not even patched to 1.0b and yet, I have not encountered any of the said bugs listed in the patch.

Anyway, about the team gizka restoration project, does it also work on the unpatched version as well? Just asking because I may or may not be replaying the game again and I want to know if it really does patch up the plot holes in the game. Thanks.

Darmoe - you talking about the Polar Region ?
I had the problem last night :-)

What you want is..........>
* after being approach to give up your weapons, you >>>>

1) say I won't give them up
**** Kreia mind-melds with you and says; "they mean no harm" .... something like that
2) say ok, I'll give up my weapons

*** a cutscene should trigger with Bao Dur, Kreia and Atton in force cages .. then you get the Kreia-Atton talk

Now, you go to find T3 ... talk to him through the cage ... ask is he all right (.. whatever you want to say) ... then select to free him

Now go to Bao Dur ... get the " sorry General line etc" .... you answer as you wish ... then talk to Kreia
I believe you release Bao Dur first ?
Then you talk to Kreia about Atton etc ?
Then release them ?
Or you might do them all at once = not sure

*** the main thing is: after the initial Handmaiden cutscene, all 3 should be in force cages ***

When I said: I'll give up my weapons, Kreia/Atton were still with me = there was no cutscene
I couldn't get T3 out ... no dialogue option ... only Computer/Repair fix options and follow-ups

I hope that helps ... you need the Kreia/Atton cutscene in their cages to release everyone
Then just read the dialogue options and release them

At least, that how it played out for me ?

Yes, you're quite right. It's been discovered that if you initially give an LS answer to the "give up your weapons" conversation, you get the bug, just choose a DS one, and it should be fine.

Thanks guys, you answered my issue.

I was a nice guy and surrendered the weapons instead of waiting on the telepathy thing...

I'll check out that patch too. ;)

Darmoe - you're welcome.
First time I could actually help someone ... luckily, I hit the bug last night
GameBanshee forums are "tops" ... they have saved me much frustration/aggravation in all my RPG's.

* yes, download the patch *
