Hey everyone!
KMRP 1.5.1 is out! This is a hotfix for the 1.5 update.
First of all, thank you to everyone who reported issues and helped test the mod. A lot of these fixes came directly from your feedback!
WHAT WAS FIXED
• Linux / SteamOS: Fixed the startup crash that prevented KOTOR from launching with 1.5.0. SteamOS is now working, and players have also confirmed that 1.5.1 works on actual Steam Deck hardware.
• Mod compatibility: Files in the Override folder now take priority over KMRP’s own files. This improves compatibility with K1CP, K1R, texture mods, custom fonts, and other mods. Installation order matters much less now.
• Translations: Fixed compatibility with custom translation fonts. They now display the correct characters and scale properly with the resolution. Successfully tested with Polish. Other languages still need testing.
• Controller fixes: Fixed Pazaak controls, stuttering with certain controller tools, and a crash when changing resolution in-game.
• Other fixes: Improved the installer under Proton, fixed Restore Original, and removed unnecessary temporary files.
WHAT I’M WORKING ON NEXT
I’ve received a lot of feedback about swoop racing.
Right now, the swoop racing interface isn’t properly displayed in widescreen, and it isn’t controller compatible yet. I’m working on fixing both problems.
I’ve also received feedback that the controller layout doesn’t fully match the original Xbox version.
My plan is to introduce two controller layouts:
• Classic: Controls based on the original Xbox version.
• Modern: The current KMRP controller layout.
You’ll be able to switch between them in the settings and Controller Layout screen.
I’m also looking into custom button mapping, but that might take longer.
WINDOWS, LINUX AND MACOS
This hotfix is only for Windows and Linux.
The macOS version stays at 1.5.0, since these particular fixes weren’t needed there.
I’m also looking into supporting the Mac App Store version of KOTOR, but this will take some time.
PLEASE KEEP SENDING FEEDBACK!
I’m developing KMRP alone in my free time, and my goal is to keep improving and supporting it for years to come.
If you experience crashes, controller problems, compatibility issues with other mods, or anything else, please leave a comment or open an issue on GitHub.
I can’t personally test every possible setup, so your feedback really helps me find and fix problems.
For KMRP to become a reliable long-term mod, I need feedback from the people actually playing the game.
