KotOR 2 patch released

[Antagonist]

So, after months of delay LucasArts finally released the long-awaited patch without any announcement. If you look at the list of what actually was patched you will understand very quickly why: It is less (nothing) what people hoped for (content) and also less than expected (technical fixes).

For those interested, here is the meager readme:
