I'm a pre-disney Star Wars fan. Everything 'post - Mr. Lucas' is Expanded Universe to me.
The way the Expanded Universe worked pre-Disney is "It's canon unless
contradicted in an official film or show." And that's the guideline I
used with this mod.

When using the mod loader only pick one of each option (Faction & Voice Pack).
Selecting both "The Empire" and "The Republic" will result in only one loading,
it all depends on how the Mod Loader sets the load order.
If you select more than one Voice pack it will either silence the modded parts, or crash your game.
If your installing manually, read on. If not; its not applicable for you.
These Patches have to be the highest number in your patch order for them to work.
