About This File

Description:
Most of the Sith students, teachers, and workers at the Sith academy on Korriban in K1 will now wear Dark Jedi robes according to rank and ported in from K2 that are worn by the Dark Jedi at Trayus Sith Academy on Malachor V in K2. Visually-speaking, this mod is meant to make the same appearance enhancement for Korriban Sith that JCarter426's "Cloaked Jedi Robes for K1" makes to Jedi robes with ported K2 models and could also be installed over JC's "Back in Black" which edits the NPCs' equipment (and which this mod itself doesn't do).
-There will be two main options for installation: Version 1 installs both the clothing overhaul and gives unique heads to several of the NPCs who have direct conversations with the players such as Kel Algwinn and Dak Vesser, while Version 2 only overhauls the clothing.
-Lashowe, Mekel, Shaardan, and other students will wear “low” robes
-Yuthura and other teachers will wear “mid” robes
-Masters (just Uthar) will wear “high” robes.
-Students and teachers who are out working in the valley will wear darker variants of Dark Jedi Padawan and Master robes, respectively, with the ported player and companion robe models from K2
-Those who are dueling or practicing combat skills will wear “training” outfits (K1-style “tunics”) from Unused K1 Tunics for TSL
-Captives will wear “prisoner” outfits
-Workers (Tariga, Adrenas) will wear a darker variant of Onderon commoner clothing from Effixian's Zeison Sha/Jal Shey to Onderon Clothing
-All of the “Lite” NPCs will be upgraded based on the new heads and gender given to them in K1CP but will have the new clothing.
-A compatibility patch for K1CP will be available for both versions to give Tariga (the Huttese-speaking human NPC who gives directions to the Valley) a female appearance.
-There will be an optional add-on to install the female variant of the Trayus-style Dark Jedi “Master” robes for Yuthura which I decided to include since nobody else wears it.
-Sith guards, troopers, soldiers, and archaeologists will NOT be affected. I would **strongly** recommend installing K1CP **before** this mod in order to get a full overhaul of NPCs in the area but it isn’t necessary in order for the mod to work and the base installation will assume that K1CP isn’t installed
-Equipment of NPCs will NOT be edited, this is purely a **visual** overhaul but is compatible with any mod that edits the NPCs’ equipment such as “Back in Black” by JCarter426
-Aside from any Sith students or teachers who are encountered in Dreshdae, the "Prospective" Sith students as well as Czerka employees and other civilians in the area will NOT be affected. I would recommend some of the other NPC overhaul mods listed below for enhancing those characters. For the most part, this mod mainly aims to change the Sith students, teachers, and staff at the Academy itself
-Any Sith or Dark Jedi outside of Korriban will NOT be affected and there are multiple mods (listed below) which sufficiently enhance them and which I would recommend to be installed along with this mod.
Installation:
Just run the TSLPatcher the direct it to your game file. If you plan on using this mod alongside K1CP, I'd recommend installing K1CP **first** if you haven't already.
Install either Version 1 (Clothes & Heads) OR Version 2 (Clothes Only) and then install either version of the Tariga patch for K1CP based on whichever version of the base installation was chosen (basically gives Tariga a female appearance in line with K1CP's changes that also adds the changes made to other NPCs in the main mod).
To Uninstall:
Remove the files from your Override folder and add the backup .2da file to it

Compatibility:
If you're using any mods that change the appearance of NPCs in the Academy or on Korriban generally such as K1CP, I would recommend installing them BEFORE installing this mod.
If you're using Leilukin's "Belaya's Unique Look" for example, install this mod AFTER it; it uses the same unique head for the character that Leilukin's mod uses and sources it from SpaceAlex's "K1 Enhancement Pack" modder's resource but also gives Belaya the same clothing overhaul as the others at the Academy if she appears.
This mod should also be compatible with JCarter426's "Back in Black" mod (and I would even recommend using it alongside mine but it isn't necessary in order for my mod to work), but should be installed AFTER JC's mod so that the appearance overhaul in this mod won't be overwritten.
Compatible with both K1CP **and** K1R but I would **strongly** encourage using it alongside K1CP. However, neither one is required in order for the mod to work
