About This File

This mod has actually been in the proverbial pipes for quite some time now. Thanks to some extensive help from Kyrie on the forums, it can finally see the light of day.

 

What is this mod, you ask? Well it was originally a mass retexturing of all of the alien eyes to better match those seen in the films by getting rid of those irritating painted-on eye specular shines once and for all. This being done by making the specular shine via alpha layers and cubemaps rather than a diffuse texture. The coolest part about this is, the eye reflections are fully dynamic, and if you alter the angle that you look at them, they will actually move across the eye.

 

 

However, time has duly marched on, and since then, I have been adding more things to my modifications as well as fixing small visual things such as:

 

giving the Boma a punch-through modifier and alpha map to its teeth, so you will now be able to see-through them,

 

the Toydarian now actually having some (albeit painted-on) clothes and no longer being naked in the middle of the street; thus confronting a problem which always disturbed and confused me,

 

the Aqualish having shiny tusks and eyes (for visual effect),

 

and the Twileks having shiny skin (more akin to the movies)

 

 

Also included in an optional capacity, are a few experimental reskins that I wasn't comfortable forcing on whoever downloaded them as they are purely a matter of taste. These include

 

a CM_Baremetal/Specmap revision of Luxa to which she now has shiny skin (that zeltrons typically have in the EU),

 

some tattoos added to the Twin Suns to give them some identity (A collegue told me that "real" assassins wouldn't have such obvious markings, but I like them anyway, personally),

 

and a recoloration of the Gamorean thugs to a more green and color-saturated look.

 

(examples of these are in the screenshots)

 

 

All of that said, I hope you like how this mod looks; and that the visual effects it provides will make alien encounters and cantina sequences more cinematic and cooler to look at.~
