Animated Ebon Hawk Monitors (Not including Galaxy Map)
=============================================================
AUTHOR: Sith Holocron, Dark Hope, and Xarwarz
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 06 APR 2016
UPDATED RELEASE 01: 19 JAN 2019
UPDATED RELEASE 02: 09 APR 2022
GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 & 2
Description:
------------
When Xarwarz was working on a sample of a monitor texture for the Ebon Hawk, I had suggested to him that it could use a bit of animation to liven it up. Towards that end, I asked Quanon
if he could render out a frame frames of a wire-frame model of the Ebon Hawk. I added in some sine wave activity and threw in some Aurebesh for good measure. One of the monitors was now animated.
The other frames have more subtle animations in them - you can see the computer inputs going up and down and various colors changing around.
Though I've placed this in the Knights of the Old Republic 2 section, this mod is compatible with both games.
Installation:
-------------
For Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2 - Extract the "LEH_scre01.tga" and the "LEH_scre01.txi" files into the SWKotOR2/Override folder.
For Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 - Extract the "LEH_scre01`.tga" and the "LEH_scre01.txi" files into the Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic/Override folder.

Xarwarz: For putting together the original texture!
@Quanon: For providing the wire-frame models of the Ebon Hawk!
@Dark Hope: For her original cockpit texture, for releasing her version to Deadly Stream, allowing me to adjust it as I see fit, and to include it in this package.
@ebmar: For adjusting Dark Hope's new texture by adding a little depth to it and adding the overlay over the monitors shown in the “With Glass Overlays” folder.
Here's what it looks like in game.
Thanks to @Mellowtron11 for providing the game save so I could get this video done relatively quickly!
BTW: Looking for something a little more subtle? Check this mod for an alternate look.
What's New in Version 1.2 See changelog
Released
1.1: I added a texture from the KOTOR2 More Subtle Animated Ebon Hawk Monitors (still not including Galaxy Map) that Dark Hope gave permission to be used. I altered her texture and Ebmar added a glass-like overlay to it. I figured it should be in both packages. I also edited the description accordingly.
Here's the texture I'm talking about by the way.
1.2: : It appears some of the files were missing from the mod package - which has now been rectified. In addition: For a new version of the LEH_scre01.tga texture, I have added my own glass overlay to all of the monitors. This new texture can be found in the "With Glass Overlays" folder.
The original version is still available in the "Without Glass Overlays" folder. (Sorry for the lack of screenshots for this update.)
