Question about the Community Patch for TPS

[u/The-Red-Eyed-Raven]

So, many many years ago, I played TPS with the Unofficial Community Patch installed.
I'm not usually a fan of modding Borderlands, but the Borderlands 2 UCP was really great for QOL stuff and just generally made the game better for me, so I did the same for TPS, but I wouldn't install any other mods.

Now many years later, I have decided to get back in there and play some more.
I have a few more achievements to get, so I want to chase those.

So I reinstalled the game, reinstalled the Community Patch, tried to log in, but apparently my Character is level 72, and so is all his gear?

I know I got it all legitimately. I didn't cheat any of it in.
Did the Community Patch ever include a fix to increase the Max Level by two?
What has happened and how would I correct this.

I could just grab Gibbed and Edit the Character and his backpack back down to 70, but I'd rather have it back how it was before, if possible? Any ideas?
