1. DESCRIPTION:

This mod gives the KotOR 2 NPC Dahnis a unique appearance, so she will look different from other Twi'lek women NPCs. Dahnis is one of the Pazaak players in the Pazaak Den on Nar Shaddaa, and one of the Pazaak players you need to defeat in order to draw out the Pazaak Champ.

Compared to KotOR 1, Twi'lek NPCs in TSL have more variety in appearances, but some Twi'lek NPCs reuse the same looks from KotOR 1, with Dahnis being one of them, and Nar Shaddaa has at least one another Twi'lek woman NPC with the same appearance as Dahnis. Therefore, this mod is made to make Dahnis unique.

This unique appearance of Dahnis is created by utilising one of the Twi'lek women textures from SpaceAlex's K1 Enhancement Pack, which has been released as a modder's resource.

NOTE: In order for this mod to take effect, you must load a save before visiting Nar Shaddaa's Entertainment Promenade for the first time.

 

2. INSTALLATION:

Extract the Dahnis Unique Look.7z archive you downloaded to anywhere you like, as long as it is not within the KotOR 2 directory. Run Install.exe, point the installer to your KotOR 2 directory, where swkotor2.exe is located, and let the installer do its job.

I also provide upscaled versions of the textures as an optional installation. After installing the main part of this mod, go to the "Optional - Upscaled Textures" folder, drop the files into the Override folder in your directory and overwrite files when prompted.

When you install this mod, two new folders named "backup" and “uninstall” will be created by the installer in the same folder as the installer. Do not delete the folders or any of the files within the folder if you are planning on uninstalling this mod.

***IMPORTANT NOTE FOR STEAM USERS:***
I DO NOT recommend using the Steam Workshop if you want to use this mod. Steam Workshop is frankly a mod compatibility nightmare, and I recommend reading this post on why Steam Workshop is NOT recommended for modding KotOR 2.

 

3. UNINSTALLATION:

Run Install.exe and select your KotOR directory where you installed this mod. From the “Tools” drop-down menu, select “Uninstall Mod / Restore Backup”, then confirm to uninstall the mod.

 

4. KNOWN ISSUES:

None currently known. If you find any bugs or problems, please let me know.

 

5. MOD COMPATIBILITY:

This mod is not compatible with any other mods that modify or change Dahnis's head.

This mod is compatible with The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod (TSLRCM). Make sure you install this mod after TSLRCM.

This mod is compatible with my Dahnis Flirt Option for Female PC.

 

6. PERMISSION:

You may use the assets from this mod as part of your mod, however, SpaceAlex should be credited as the original creator of the texture, which were part of the K1 Enhancement Pack modder's resource. You may credit me for the TPC and upscaled version of the textures from this mod, but it is not necessary.

I do not use nor support Steam Workshop, so I do not want any of my mods to be uploaded to Steam Workshop.
