If you're still playing <a href=http://www.swkotor.com>KotOR</a> and suffering from some bugs and other weird anomalies, grab the new 1.03 patch <a href=http://support.lucasarts.com/patches/KotOR.htm>here</a>. Here is a snipet:
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>Made a fix to the Force Point Regeneration item property so it actually regenerates Force points.
<br>
Fixed an issue where in some rare cases, the player would be killed while on the Leviathan.
<br>
Fixed an issue with Dantooine Pazaak occasionally breaking Suvam Tan on Yavin.
<br>
The Sand Person disguise will no longer be reset when entering Anchorhead and the Dockingbay.
<br>
Dead party members will no longer show up later in the game. What with them being dead and all.
<br>
Fixed the Hidden Bek Door (Security Station) to no longer display the 'Impossible' message.
<br>
Fixed a visual issue with Power Blast and using Dual Blasters where the off-hand blaster wasn't firing.
<br>
Fixed a problem which would cause dialogue to skip through without playing any VO.
<br>
Fixed a problem where you would get stuck at a black screen after a game load or an area transition.
<br>
Fixed a problem where the screensaver could activate during the playback of a movie.
<br>
Put in a symptomatic fix for your character's attributes being reset to all 8's.
<br>
Put in a symptomatic fix for party members getting stuck and not fighting.
<br>
Put in a symptomatic fix for losing force points when going through area transitions with Force Valor active.
<br>
Removed the +2 bonus to the offhand attack when wielding a balanced weapon in the offhand or when wielding a double bladed weapon.
<br>
Removed the ability to bind controls to the "Alt" key. The "Alt" key was never inteded to be a usable key in the first place. </blockquote>

WOW! They wasted no time on getting the 3rd patch out. Too bad, I've moved on..

I think that's the read-me for 1.02 though - I think 1.03 only fixed a couple of minor bugs.

Now if only we could get a second patch for TOEE then I'll give that another whirl.

Is this the patch that makes the game fun? :lol:
Nah, I'm kidding it was probably the best Star Wars based RPG I've ever played. ;-)

Yep, no other Star Wars RPG had the same level of quality as KOTOR has, that's for sure :)

I'm waiting for the patch that adds the option to romance Bastilla with a female PC. >_>
On that topic, I'd rather a patch that makes Bastilla not hideous and utterly unredeemingly annoying. And anyway, if they just removed the +2 bonus to the off-hand attack, why was Carth still so damn useless?

Uh? Where you get that idea. All I'm saying is, that for me, a patch is moot, as I'm not playing the game. Geez. :roll:

It's not that Carth is so damn useless, it's rather that blasters are fucking useless. I found that Carth became a lot better if you let him dual wield swords. This really made me feel like I was playing a Dungeons & Krayt Dragons game.

Funny you should mention that. It's being worked on. I can't say anymore than that, what with the NDA and all.
