About This File

This mod modernizes all K2 cutscenes by upscaling, slight compositing, and remaking text elements. This in 3440x1440, 3840x2160,  2560x1440 and 1920x1080 resolutions at the original framerate (and soon interpolated to a 60fps version).

Disclaimer
This mod only includes enhanced cutscenes/legal screens. Adjusting your game to the preferred resolution is necessary.

Information
- Cutscenes have been upscaled using a combination of AI models in Topaz Video AI 5, then re-composited and exported back to bink files at a high bitrrate.
- Remade the subtitles for videos KreMov01 and ScnMov01
- Remade legal screen (alt screens featuring art by Francis Hsu)
- Remade credits crawl in MalMov12, MalMov14 and Credits
- Remade title crawl in PerMov01
 

Installation
- Download preferred resolution.
- Extract the downloaded .bik files into the  "movies" folder in your game installation directory. Remember to make a backup of the original folder first if you want to restore them at some point.
- Extract the prefered legal screen from the "tex" folder to the "override" folder in your game installation directory.
- Overwrite with any preferred alt versions.

Alts
- "legal" an alternative legalscreen option. (or even 2 versions when using the 3440x1440 resolution)
- "nosubs" removes subtitles from videos KreMov01 and ScnMov01
- "whitesubs" adds white instead of green subtitles to videos KreMov01 and ScnMov01

Let me know if  you run into any issues or have any thoughts. This is by no means perfect since the upscaling process still introduces a lot of artifacts but I'm hoping to revisit and improve this project whenever there's a significant update in available upscaling video tech. K2 also features videos with way more anti-aliasing and interlacing issues than K1 for some reason.

Hello there! I love your work with the KotOR 1 cutscenes so I'm definitely downloading this mod as well. Do you have any rough estimates when you'll be finishing the 60 fps version?
