Will upgrading to 1.8.1 from 1.8 in the middle of a game corrupt the saves?

Ok so I sent Handmaiden to the Dxun Temple and now she is indeed a selectable party member when I leave the Ebon Hawk now. So it seems like the strange bug indeed has a strange solution. I did notice though that when I sent Handmaiden, she was by herself, though the dialogue of some of the NPCs while I was in the temple made it seem as if I should have had a full party. I was never given the option to send additional party members with Handmaiden though. Was that a bug in and of itself or will whoever you send be by themselves?

Well there was 1 chance I got to have Handmaiden be in my party was at the end of Nar Shaada and there's a dialogue menu where you pick who to take with you instead of the usual screen you see when leaving the Ebon Hawk. I chose Handmaiden there to see if I could, and it did and it worked but only until I had to choose party members again where she was glitched out again. I am doing Onderran now, haven't made it to a Dxun Tomb part yet but I'll make sure I send her there when the opportunity arises and see if its a confirmed "fix."

Man that sucks. I liked handmaiden but it appears she won't be selectable any longer :\ Thanks again for following up

Oh, well I remember the leader, and I was talking to him, and I wound up choosing an option that forced a fight since the alternative seemed to be some sort of dark side coercion where he would give me money, and I am doing a light side playthrough. So I killed him, but I'm not really sure if this is what caused the issue since the _only_ character I am having issue with is Handmaiden, and there would have been 2 characters in my party during that fight.

I don't know what you mean when you say Cahmakts lines. Who is Cahmakt? I have not encountered a character by that name, I don't think. Also no unfortunately I do not have a save from before the Red Eclipse event. Thanks for following up so far

I think it was T4, but he/it, along with everyone else I can add to my party

The hand maiden may have been in my party during that fight but I can't remember 100%. No other characters in my party are having issue though

So first of all I am using the restored content mod so I don't know if that is what's causing the problem. Anyway, after the Handmaiden initially joined my party I was able to have her leave the ship with my party. The first planet I went to after that was Nar Shaada and at some point during questing in Nar Shaada she stopped being able to leave the ship. It would say "This character is currently unavailable to join the party" or something like that. She will not leave the ship if I dock back at Telos either, and now I am done with Nar Shaada and am on Dantooine and she won't join me there either. She is on the ship though and I can talk to her and even train with her. Has anyone else experienced this?
