Q Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 You need to do the Dantooine lag fix: First, figure out where the .ini is installed. Default is "C:\Program Files\Lucasarts\swkotor(2)\swkotor(2).ini". If its not in that location, then your going to have to do some searching around on the hard drive a bit. When you find it, just double-click on the file to open it in Notepad. Scroll down the file until you find the Graphics Options Under the last line ("last line" as in the last line of the list of entries under "Graphics Options", NOT the last line of "swkotor(2).ini"), add "Disable Vertex Buffer Objects=1", without the quotes. Goto File, then Save. When you installed the game, did you follow the steps in the second post of that thread you linked to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthStarKiller Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 Yessir I did. I did secROMs dl, I did the mss33.dll (or 32 can't remember which in the link it was) reinstalled, patched, ran through admin stats, did compatibility service pack 2, and XP 3, install and reinstalled in both, and I disabled the movies, did low setting, I have literaly done everything, searched everywhere and I even went to the official site and trouble shooted it there. I can't seem to figure out the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Try using the original .exe file from the patch instead of the SecuROM version. Sometimes that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthStarKiller Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 Still doesn't work, I think im just gonna go back to KOTOR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Yeah, this particular chipset usually has problems. Try contacting SecuROM for another .exe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dustyny Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I did but then restored the orginanl exe because the patched didnt work either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 You need to make sure that FullScreen=1 and that the width and height values are the same under both [Display Options] and [Graphics Options]. I recommend 1280x768. If you still can't get the game to run with either .exe, I would suggest contacting SecuROM via the link in post #2 in the Vista thread and requesting a new .exe.
