the dark one

Hey. Well, I guess I can just add this one to the list of WTF?!?!?!? I let the game sit for about an hour frozen and then, BAM it works. This is issue 12 that has been mysteriously solved for no apparent reason. My new problem solving skills include; ignoring help stepping six feet away from the computer and praying the the holy lord. Plus I'm not christian so really, I'm screwed. Thanks for the help anyways!

Thanks but i fixed it. I moved the securom file to another folder and changed the old files name from kotor2.exe.OLD to its original name, patched then fliped the exe files again.

Okay. I have had a lot of problems with this game, as I am running vista, but this forum has proven to be a great resource. I'm am having another problem. I have been playing the game for a while with out the 1.0b patch. I figured if the game didn't work right why deal with the patch too? Well, after sending an email to SecuROM and receiving a new .exe file and following all the instructions, I decided to patch the game due to a new problem that the patch may have helped with ( on dxun after your party splits and you are in the jungle, the second i cross the line between the turrets the game stops responding. Its still open, hell bao dur's remote is still drifting around, but all the interfaces are gone and i cant move.) I went to patch the game and I received an error that went: blah blah blah autopatch.txt blah blah blah. So I said no big deal and went to manually patch it. The problem is, the new secuROM file is different from the old exe file and the patch just stops at 95% saying something like the original file is missing, a file by the same name was found but it was not the same. no update done because file contents do not match. I would really like some help as with all my other problems (black screen, dantooine lag, etc) I really haven't had much of a chance to play. Thank you.

Okay. I am running vista and have had this game for about a year now. I have determined this game hates me. The first time I played through the game there were no big errors (except dialogue didn't work on onderon) I was at the trayus academy when I started anew game, but the graphics would not load. I could hear the music, heck I could still hear T3 moving but there was no visual. The even weirder part was, I could still use the menu! I could view the map to see where I was. I never fixed that , problem it just went away. Then I had the dantooine lag problem which refused to respond to any settings change, even the disable vertex buffer thing, untill finally I emailed secuROM and they sent me a new exe. I'm now using that file, but every time I go back to Dxun after Kavar contacts me and head to the sith camp, the second i cross the Gatling turret the game freezes. Sound still works, but my entire computer stops responding. I would really like some help with this one, Because It would be nice to finish this game within the same decade i bought it. Thanks in advance

ok my specs are Operating System: Windows Vista
