I followed the installation process but still can't run the game, also when starting the game after character creation.

 

I think it's because

 

a) I'm running it on a laptop

b) Intel HD Graphics, though updated. My laptop is quite new, which might be the problem as well.

 

However, I managed to run KOTOR 1 just fine.

 

Here's my log, hoping that someone will read this (although this is a very old thread)

My Windows is 7 Home Premium sp1 64bit, not using any widescreen patches or fixes.

This tells me that your game isn't patched.

 

If you can get it to run on your Intel GPU, great, but don't be surprised if you can't. It's hit-or-miss with officially unsupported GPUs.

I patched it to version 1a and then 1b. The link posted at the beginning of the topic did not work for me, so I downloaded the patches from the LA site.

I'll give it another go today removing it fully and then retrying. I'll let you know if it had any effect.

Thanks for your fast reply!

I am not sure how, but I got it working at least once now!

 

I should say I added the 3D analyse program, and checked Emulate HW TnL Caps.

Also, I ran BOTH the update from the LA site, and the one from here. Despite one not finishing, I am on the new game version now and it works :D

 

For Intel users I would advice not to give up after the first try. I did not have the blit function in my 3D settings, but still it works. I'm a happy Guardian now :D

Glad you got it running.

 

The only other thing that I would do is set the width and height values to 1280 and 768 under [Graphics Options] to match the same values under [Display Options]. KotOR2 supports 1280x768 natively, but it's not an available option in the game's menu.

Visited Dantooine, Dxun/Onderon so far, on Nar Shaddaa now.

 

I've noticed not all audio tracks are working fine and sometimes conversations are skipping. Is this a known issue? Saw something mentioned about downloading enhanced movie/music files on that site, would that help? It doesn't affect my gameplay so I'm not too worried about this though.

Hello, im an old fan with the kotor games and i wanted to experience them for one more time as i did a few years before. i noticed the problems with windows 7 pro 32bit and i searched on multiple sites how to fix this problem. in the end i came at a hibrid status(im not using the original cd`s).

First of all i used the tutorial on this thread, but my main problem was the original cd detection; so i used a no cd crack that fixed the job.

First the game started with cinematics and all and it went good even with alt+tab through the computer, then i had to shut it down cause the game kept crashing. im gonna paste my ini file here(and yes im using cheats, im a cheater i know :raise: ) hope that i made it a bit more clear.

one more thing: i installed only kotor 1, didn`t try it for kotor 2 yet.

here is the .ini file:

Depends on if you are patched/not patched. T3-M4's dialog is known to be buggy and skippy, although there have been at least 2 mods that address that issue. I have noticed more skippiness when my PC has been in need of a new part - when my GPU started to glitch out a while back, the game began behave much more poorly in dialog and all other cases than is even normal, and I thought it was a mod related issue. She is a sensitive old thing...

 

Who has the most buggy dialog? My guess would be T3 or the Handmaiden.

I am not sure if we can help you there. I appreciate your honesty though. I suspect the main problem is with not being to update your game due to your .exe.

Evening, I am trying to get Kotor 1 to run on Windows 7. It's worked fine in the past but now I seem to have problems with it. I have uninstalled it and attempted to reinstall it according the the OP instructions to the best of my ability. Owning a Best of PC version made it a little tricky to decide what was the right course of action and what wasn't.

 

Originally I attempted to follow these instructions to play the game

It sounded crazy but oddly enough it worked up until meeting Canderous. Beyond that most of my bugs are simply black screens after the logos, and sometimes black loading screen freezes.

 

Here are the results of my test.

1) I see no Dantooine lag fix.

 

2) You are using a late-model ATI video card, so I wish you the best of luck getting the game to run properly. You're going to need it. :(

Depends on if you are patched/not patched. T3-M4's dialog is known to be buggy and skippy, although there have been at least 2 mods that address that issue. I have noticed more skippiness when my PC has been in need of a new part - when my GPU started to glitch out a while back, the game began behave much more poorly in dialog and all other cases than is even normal, and I thought it was a mod related issue. She is a sensitive old thing...

 

Who has the most buggy dialog? My guess would be T3 or the Handmaiden.

 

It's in general that conversation goes too fast; I end up fastfowarding to the point where I get to pick an answer... I know the game so it's not too much of a problem, just slightly annoying. It's no specific character. I shouldn't complain, I got it working against the odds :)

I see. Well I guess I'll just have to hope the Dantooine lag fix solves something.

 

I'm having trouble resaving the ini though. It's trying to make the changes as a text file and ovewriting the ini always gives me an access denied. Is there a plug in I need to download for notepad?

 

Edit: Nevermind, got it working, nothing's changed. Might try that youtube trick again. Otherwise, nothing else can be done right?

Try installing everything in the order mentioned here, as in post #2. Make sure you update, (for me that was a slight problem) and do things in the right order. Uninstall everything now, reboot (just to be sure), reinstall and try again.

I had a problem with Kotor1 and Windows 7 x64:

 

When I had patched the game to 1.03 it jumped to windows every time when I started the game and I had to shut it down from ctrl+alt+del.

 

However I solved this problem myself. I just deleted file "leclogo.bik" from movies folder and now it works fine. I hope that helps if someone has the same problem : )

I decided to get out my copy of KOTOR, while trying to install it I have come across 2 problems. First it kept saying "Please insert the proper disk" when i tried to start the autorun.exe (this is a genuine disk), so I skipped it to try and just do install.exe, this started up and began installing the game, it asked for the next disks etc etc until the end, where it said "would you a like shortcut on your desktop?" so i press YES, then it asks for disk 4 again, which is already in. and I cant finish the installation. Can you help? Ive installed this game on my laptop before O.o

i have a question with this guide; If i were to use Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate, using an NVidia graphics card, could I simply use the XP Mode built-in without any complicated process to get KotOR 1 & 2 running? (Aside from installing the regular fixes & updates)

No. The built-in XP mode in Pro and Ultimate comes in the form of a virtual machine and cannot support higher graphics functions.

 

I know that the guide is a mess and in dire need of an overhaul at the moment, but it does work. If you've got an Nvidia GPU the game should run fine.
