About This File
Summary
This mod replaces the Jedi robes worn by the player and many NPCs with a more iconic, cloaked one based on a model from K2. I've made some fixes to the model and made new textures both to improve the quality and fit into the game more smoothly.
There are three texture options: 100% Brown, Brown-Red-Blue, and Brown-Red-Blue Alternative. The Brown-Red-Blue textures maintain the color scheme of the K1 Jedi Robes. The 100% Brown textures look more like K2 textures, with different (brown) designs for the Jedi robes instead of different colors. The Brown-Red- Blue Alternative is a mix of these styles. It retains the color scheme of the Brown-Red-Blue option while keeping the variety of the 100% Brown option. Dark Jedi robes, of course, are always black.
All styles come with or without gloves for your player character and some non- player characters. If you choose a gloveless option, your hands will be bare and match your usual skin tone.
Installation
- Extract files from the downloaded archive.
- Run Install.exe.
-
Select one of the six install options:
a) 100% Brown
b) 100% Brown (No Gloves)
c) Brown-Red-Blue
d) Brown-Red-Blue (No Gloves)
e) Brown-Red-Blue Alternative
f) Brown-Red-Blue Alternative (No Gloves) - Click "Install Mod" and select your game directory (default name SWKotOR).
Manual Installation
- Extract files from the downloaded archive.
- If you do not have an override folder, make one in your game directory (default name SWKotOR).
-
Select one of the three folders in tslpatchdata:
k_bbb – 100% Brown
k_brb – Brown-Red-Blue
k_brb-a – Brown-Red-Blue Alternative - Copy all files from the selected folder to your override folder except appearance.2da and the .ini and .rtf files.
The gloveless options require patching appearance.2da and are not supported by the manual installation.
Uninstallation
- Remove the installed files or replace from backups if necessary.
Compatibility & Other Notes
This mod is not compatible with my Cloaked Hybrid Robes mod; you have to pick one or the other.
This mod is compatible with my Cloaked Party Robes mod, if you install it after installing this mod.
This mod is likely not compatible with other mods that alter the Jedi robes.
This mod uses my Supermodel Port for K1. This makes it super cripplingly incompatible with any other mods that alter the game's supermodels (the S_Female and S_Male files) unless the other mods utilize my Supermodel Port assets. These edits are necessary to give the player supermodels the bones required for the cloaks to animate.
This mod's supermodels include my Supermodel Fixes for K1. So you don't have to worry about using that, or if these files are overwriting those. Use this mod's files.
These supermodel edits somewhat alter some animations in the game. These adjustments were necessary to prevent the old stuff from clipping with the new stuff. It's essentially what Obsidian did when they added the new bones to the supermodel, but I've reversed the changes a bit to bring the animations closer to the original K1 style.
Some models aren't so happy with the new rig. I've made some hotfixes for such cases where I can, but they won't be compatible with other mods that alter these models. I've instructed TSLPatcher not to overwrite these.
P_JuhaniBB.mdl and P_JuhaniBB.mdx are two such files that will be skipped. If you use the Juhani Catlike Head Mod, I suggest that you use my version because I happened to fix the same thing that mod fixes anyway. You can copy those two files manually from tslpatchdata to Override.
The gloveless options only support appearances from the original game release. If you use a modded player appearance, they'll still wear gloves.
While this mod adds skirt bones to the player supermodels, at this time it does not add the bones or the necessary animations to the cutscene models. So the skirt flaps may appear stiff in scenes that use those.

Permissions
I hereby grant nobody except myself permission to upload some or all of this mod anywhere for any reason. For any reason. I have uploaded a separate mod resource with essentially all of these assets free for anyone who wants to use them. But I want to keep them separate for simplicity's sake, so this release here is strictly a mod.

Donations
If you enjoy my mods and would like to show your support in a monetary manner, you may do so via PayPal with this donation link.
For various legal and ethical reasons, this is entirely optional and is not a requirement to downloading or using any of my mods. I also do not create specific mods for hire.
I make mods as a hobby and will most likely do so regardless of any donations or lack thereof, but modding does take up a lot of my time and every bit helps.

Released
- It seems that I did a bad thing and uploaded the wrong files for PFBIM last time, which caused crashes. So that's fixed.
