CZERKA SIGN AND DESK ENHANCEMENT (version 1.2)
==============================================


MOD AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 13 MAY 2017
UPDATED RELEASE 1.1: 25 MAR 2017 (added desk and loading screen)
UPDATED RELEASE 1.2: 16 OCT 2018 (adds new version of desk and removes the loading screen)
 
GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords.


Description:

This texture replaces all instances of the low resolution Czerka sign seen in the game. In addition, the desk seen in the Czerka office (and many other places throughout the game) has been cleaned up and even has an animated screen!


Notes:

A small update: I've made some minor updates to the green buttons on the desk texture.  If you'd rather use the original ones instead, they are still available in the package. (See Installation instructions.)

The loading screen has been removed from the package as it's now included in my "Replacement Loading Screens for KotOR2: Original Pack (with or without TSLRCM) - Part 1" mod.  Why have multiple identical versions. right?  

 

Installation:

If using TSL: Choose whether you wish to use the original or new versions of the textures.  Grab all files from one of those folders and put them in your Override folder. 

If using KotOR1: Choose whether you wish to use the original or new versions of the textures.  Grab all files from one of those folders and put them in your Override folder. 

 

Uninstall:

Remove the textures from the Override folder.

Note the animation of the desk monitor.  This GIF is a bit janky looking.  I assure you that the animation runs much smoother in the actual game.

Special Thanks:


To JCarter426 for his wonderful Loadscreen Template for K2 (1.1) - which enabled me to include this loadscreen for you all. Even though I now have removed the loading screen from this mod package, he still deserves the credit.

To be honest, I wasn't expecting more than 5 downloads of these textures! LOL

Why? It's a great re-texture! (seriously, I couldn't stand those Czerka signs being so low quality!) Thanks for this!

Where in K1 can you find this sign?

Second this! I've been on Korriban and Kashyyyk and still can't find a sign similar to what is like on the screenshot.

In spite of that- top quality stuff's, SH! Have been looking at the texture and the first word that came out, "Yes!"

@N-DReW25 and @ebmar: It's been more than a year since I worked on this so take this next part with a grain of salt as I'm working with "old-man-memory" here.  From what I recall, the same texture is present in both games as I believe I went through KOTOR Tool looking for it.  However, I can't recall exactly where the texture is actually used.  Your best bet is probably to check the areas where Czerka is located: the Tatooine Czerka Office, Kashyyyk Edean field office, and/or possibly on Korriban (possibly including the areas added by Brotherhood of Shadows: Solomon's Revenge?  I would check this myself but I'm at work.  If you'd like to look for them, I would start there.  (Feel free to post some shots of the sign if you find one or more!)

Update: The presence of Czerka Sign file in both games is confirmed by KOTOR Tool.  Doesn't help you find it in KotOR1 but you at least you know I looked for it in the game files (again)!

Update: Finally got around to looking for evidence of the Czerka sign being used in KotOR1, @ebmar and @N-DReW25 .  Though I gave up at searching after finding one example of it, there's likely others around in the game.

The desk in the screen shot has miniature versions of the sign texture.

The other texture for the desk itself in the mod is for a completely different desk model and is seen is several other places.

Just realized that I never answered this. The sign with the Czerka Logo on pebbled glass is not animated.  I am sorry about the delay in answering.
