AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 17 APR 2018

 

GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2. [This mod will not work in Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1.]

 

Description:
------------------

 

Were you ever dissatisfied with the low-resolution loading screens when the in-game footage looks so much better ? What if there was a mod that took care of that for you? Psssst . . . it’s this mod!

 

This version of the mod covers the areas in the normal “vanilla” game and the areas added/restored by TSLRCM. If you’re looking for additional loading screens that cover large scale add-on mods, you should seek out the “Replacement Loading Screens for KotOR2 Add-On Pack” which is also available on Deadly Stream. The texture size is 2048 by 2048 so you'll have a large sized picture for each.

"221TEL Citadel Station - Suburban" Is NOT included as a great corrected example is already available in this mod by JCarter426.

Installation:
-----------------

 

Drop the TGA files and loadscreen.2da into your Override folder.

 

The loading screen “load_301NARa.tga” is an alternate version of “load_301NARa.tga”. If you wish to use the alternate version, delete the “a” from the alternate and put that texture into the Override rather than the original texture.

 

Uninstall:
-------------

If for any reason, you don’t like one (or more) of the loading screens, consult the list above so you can determine which you’ll need to remove from your Override folder.

 

To completely remove the loading screens, delete all the above listed TGA files and the loadscreen.2da.

If you'd like a preview of all of the loading screens, check out this video below. It does show the screens without the filter and the black bars but it will give you an idea what you'll be working with before you download. I recommend watching the video maximized. This video shows all screens in part 1, part 2, and part 3 of this mod (excepting 235TEL.)
