About This File

This mod adds a Pureblood Sith head and underwear model from The Old Republic MMO, ported to TSL as a selectable player head for female characters.

A few notes:

  • A unique underwear model is included, but because of the different way TOR and KOTOR mate heads to bodies, I had to add a neck stump to the torso to elevate the head to the right height. That makes for a pretty nasty transition at the seam line, but it should mostly only be visible in dialogue. Try not to have too many conversations while naked I guess.
  • By default, the underwear is a sports bra and panties. For those wanting something a little more chaste, there’s an alternative modesty patch that provides a pair of shorts/hot pants instead. After running this installer, simply copy and paste the TPCs from the OPTIONAL folder to your Override folder, overwriting when prompted.
  • Odyssey’s lack of proper specularity, much less the advanced (by comparison) graphical features of TOR, means you should expect that the textures will look pretty flat in KOTOR compared to how the originals look in TOR.
  • KOTOR has a maximum bone limit per mesh of 17. This creates a problem for TOR meshes, as adding the eyelids to the face bone array pushes that to 18. I had to drop 2 bones to make it work. I chose the two nose corner bones, as they seemed the least important. I don't know what effect this may have on various facial animations, but probably nothing significant for mute player characters.
  • Differences between how TOR and KOTOR handle animations mean that some of the bone weights are probably too strong, so expect some bad deformation occasionally. Especially when the game uses stunt animations in certain cutscenes. If you notice anything particularly egregious, post a comment with some notes of the specifics and a screenshot/video and I'll see if it can be mitigated.
  • Dark Side transitions are included, but they are relatively mild. I'm not a big fan of the zombie look.
  • The portraits are the versions I made for K1, so they probably don't mesh well with TSL. I'm lazy like that.

Installation:

  • If you are using TSLRCM or the hybrid TSLRCM + M4-78 from the Steam Workshop, make sure to choose its Workshop folder as the installation location, not the main game folder. Or preferably don't use the Workshop at all.
  • A custom dancer outfit was added in v1.1. A patch has been provided for users of v1.0 to add this to their existing game. Only use it if you have v1.0.

If I choose to dance for Vogga by myself, the body in the dancer's outfit will have a different skin color, its bug  or something else?

Oh yeah, I forgot about the stripper outfit. I never play female characters (or TSL), so it never occurred to me. I'll have to make a custom model for it.

@Vabulletizer: A bit of a hack job, but the vanilla texture doesn't exactly provide a lot to work with:

Pureblood_Sith_Female_Dancer_Outfit_TH.j

Normally there would be no practical way to patch this into an existing game, you'd have to manually edit appearance.2da yourself to fix it. However, thanks to the coding assistance of @VarsityPuppet, I have a custom appearance patcher that was originally made for another mod that you can try (at least if you are on Windows):

[TSL]_Player_Head_TOR_Pureblood_Sith_Female_v1.0_Dancer_Patch.7z

See how that goes. If it looks ok in-game I'll post an updated version of the mod.

Edit: Tweaked the texture to fix a few dodgy spots and added a custom model as well, since I needed to adjust the headhook position. While I was at it I added some inverted duplicate skirts to fix the backface culling issue of the originals and tweaked the waist a bit to more closely match the TOR body. It seems like the vanilla texture has a bunch of issues, so that probably needs to be fixed in K2CP.

So I am trying to install this mod and am following the instructions, but when I run patcher, it says: Warning! The Sith female pureblood rows were not found! Patch process aborted.

That's the dancer outfit patch. You need to install the actual mod first. The other file in the available downloads.
