GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2
[This mod will not work in Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 as intended. Please use this version designed for KotOR1 instead.]
Description:
So . . . this is the second part of another mod that I’ve had on my computer/s for some time but I hadn’t gotten around to putting out there to the public. Until now.
This all started out with getting higher resolution icons for crystals in TSL. Now that I’ve successfully had a decent trial run with the KOTOR1 Polished Crystals Icon Pack, the KotOR2 version is finally ready. I found source pictures of many crystals over the years and took care to try and match the color, crystal type and - when possible – even the orientation of the crystal to match what you saw in the vanilla game.
From the pictures you’ve (hopefully) seen on the download page, you’ll notice that some of the crystals appear to be duplicated. That’s how it is handled in the game and it wasn’t an error on my part.
Installation:
Before you install this mod, go to the Override folder of your KotOR 2 game directory, and check if there are any files with these filenames in your Override folder:

If there already are any files with these filenames in your Override folder, remove them and place them elsewhere. It doesn’t matter if the files that share the file names are in a different file format (like TPC or DDS) – they’ll need to be removed. Once that is done, then drop the TGA files of my mod into your Override folder.
Uninstall:
Remove the above listed TGA files from your Override folder.
