Well, to put a long story short, this mod makes the text you see when you investigate into Elassa's murder in the Republic Embassy into an actual cutscene. (For a more detailed description check the ReadMe below.)

NAME: Sunry Murder Recording Enhancement
TYPE: Added Content
VERSION: 1.0
SIZE - Unzipped: 2.97 Megabytes, Zipped: 796 Kilobytes
DATE RELEASED: January 6, 2013
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
» DESCRIPTION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the vanilla version of the game there was a quest on Manaan which inolved you becoming a lawyer for an ex-Republic soldier who had supposedly murdered a Sith. This, if you followed it far enough, would eventually lead you to investigating around the embassies of both the Republic and the Sith. When you found some evidence, it was presented in the form of text, though referred to as a video by said text. I have taken this text and turned it into a video (a cutscene) showing the events which the text described.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
» INSTALLATION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An installation which involved the TSL Patcher has been made ready for your use and is the simplest and easiest way to carry out installation.
If you wish, for whatever reason, to not use TSL Patcher it will require you to manually copy and paste files from the TSLPatchdata folder into the specific folders they need to be placed in.
Note: I am not responsible for any incompatibility issues that may arise from the use of this mod in conjunction with other mods. (Though I'll help you try and sort them out, if you tell me about them.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
» TSL PATCHER INSTALLATION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1) Double click SMRE Installer.exe found in the main directory of the Sunry Murder Recording Enhancement folder.
2) Click the button labeled Install Mod.
3) Click yes to the box that'll pop up... if you wish to proceed with installation.
4) Watch as all the little file names and progress reports scroll by and wait until the installer is complete.
(IMPORTANT! If you encounter error while running the TSLPatcher saying that manm26ae.mod already exists, DO NOT worry. This just means a little insurance policy I had in place wasn't needed.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
» MANUAL INSTALLATION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1) Open up the folder titled "Manual Installation".
2) Just take the one file in there (manm26ae.MOD) and put it in the Modules folder, found in the SWKotOR main directory.
(I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR ERRORS MADE WHILE MANUALLY INSTALLING THIS MOD)

Thanks all of you. I just remembered that I didn't include the source code for the scripts so I've put a link to them up in the first post, if anyone's interested.
The truly fallen cannot return to the light. If someone "falls" and "returns," they never really, truly fell.
An instant download. I'm looking forward to putting it my override - forgetting about it - and then being surprised by it when I eventually get back to trying KotOR 1 again!
As of 28APR13: I released a new small texture mod! Check it out here.
It's not working for me. Whenever I enter module mnm26ae I'm greeted with main menu. I tried warping but it didn't help. I was using TSLPatcher if you want to know.

Well, I'm currently playing K1, cause I got mad at TSL. I tried adding ONE single thing to my inventory in KSE, got an error code, go back into the game, and ALL my party members are gone. And, because I'm an idiot and don't keep multiple saves, I couldn't go back. And no autosave. *Facepalm*

Huh, that's strange. Other mods?

Weird. I highly doubt it's due to anything with this mod, it sounds something like an issue with the dialog.tlk... what other mods do you have?

Oh, the problem I said was for The Sith Lords, not because of the Sunry Murder Trial mod. In TSL I tried to add a custom uti I made, but it derped my game. (I had NO party members) And JUST when I actually managed to train Bao-Dur to be a Jedi....
I had the same problem that whenever I tried to enter the manm26ae module it took me to the main screen. I even tried to warp and it had problems such as going to the main menu. This caused me to have to warp in the other areas just to complete that world. This was with a clean install of Kotor. The only big mod I have was Yavin IV and that wouldn't affect that. Once I removed the manm26ae from the modules and put the old one back in, with the back up it saved I had no problems. I'm glad I am not the only one that had issues as was stated already. Is there anyway for you to fix this Fallen Guardian as the mod looks cool. Thank you.
Maybe it had to be the Yavin IV mod afterall. I have no clue. I did another install of the game. I only kept the items from that mod and this time I did manual install of your sunry enhancement and I had no problems warping or loading into that area. I really didn't have any other big mods besides Yavin IV but maybe it did something that was conflicting. Mods are a funny thing. But I have it working now.
I'm playing through KotOR on my Windows 7, Intel Core 2 (2.13 GHz), NVIDIA GeForce 8500 computer, and I've just run into the same bug Dan Warial and Revan79 had. In addition to the Sunry Murder Recording Enhancement, I also have BoS:SR, the KotOR Restoration Project demo, the Tatooine Jabba's Palace mod, Shem's Enhanced Merchants, LDR's KotOR Improvement Mod, and TannerBill's Content Pack 1 installed, as well as a bunch of reskin mods that I don't think would affect any of this. Any thoughts? Am I screwed?
Try using the prepackaged module that is in the Manual Installation folder that came with the mod. I'm thinking the issue might be something to do with the TSLPatcher installation... I'll get back to you on that idea though.
The truly fallen cannot return to the light. If someone "falls" and "returns," they never really, truly fell.
So just drop it in to the modules folder and replace whichever one's there already?
EDIT: I went ahead and tested it the way I just specified, and it worked. I still have a back-up of the old module, so I'll let you know if anything else goes wrong. Thanks, Fallen!
EDIT 2: I completed Manaan with no other bugs/crashes. Once again, thanks!
YOURS VERY SLOW ! PLS NEW PROGRESSS PLS NEW UPDATES PLS DARK FORCES FİNAL VERSİON İ CAN WAİTİNG KOTF PART 1 RELEASED 5 YEAR AND İTS 1 MAN ( OSMAN GUNYAZ DEVELOPERS ) BUT YOURS VERY PEOPLE İ CANT WAİTİNG 5 YEARS
Oh, right, that's the other thing. Sunry says he shot Elassa while she was sleeping, and this is confirmed in Jolee's and Revan's dialogues. But the recording shows them both walking in and her being completely awake when he shoots her. I guess it's fathomable that Sunry could be lying, but why would he lie to make Elassa seem more helpless than less? Would it be possible to alter the recording so that it shows Elassa sleeping and Sunry already in the room, pacing, and then shooting her?
Yeah, or somehow find the animation from when the Exile is asleep on the Ebon Hawk and has the visions. You would have to show her dying, you could just have Sunry fire as the recording cuts/fades out.
On Taris, weren't there people hungover in that Sith Party? You could try to find that animation.

I actually just looked at the original BioWare dialogue for the computer, where the text described to you Sunry's murder of Elassa.

So with this you can see why I went the way I went. I don't know if BioWare intentionally made Sunry's account of the events inaccurate or if it wanted the Republic's view to be inaccurate or it was just plain inconsistency, so, what I'd like to know is what you guys would like me to do. Change it to line up with what Sunry says? Or just leave it as it is now?
