HD Cockpit Skyboxes


DESCRIPTION
When you land the Ebon Hawk on a planet, you are able to  look out of the cockpit and view the landing platform.  This is achieved by a cylindrical texture. Since the vanilla textures were low res, inaccurate, and desaturated, I recreated the platforms in Maya and rendered them to look as they do in-game. The main planets, including M4-78, are all remastered in 4096x1024. I also include a version of the Nar Shaddaa cockpit texture that utilizes the Realistic Nar Shaddaa Skybox mod by Sharen Thrawn. Additionally, I've upscaled and retouched the outer hull of the ship as seen from the cockpit. If you need downscaled versions, the Medium Resolution option provides 2048x512 resolution skyboxes while the Low Resolution option provides 1024x256 resolution skyboxes (the size from the vanilla game). I'm also offering these textures in TPC format, which tends to be 1/4th the size and download time of the uncompressed files.

INSTALLATION
-Drop all of the files from the main mod folder into your override folder.
-If you want the cockpit texture that uses the Realistic Nar Shaddaa Skybox mod,
replace the EBO_Sky01.tga file with the one from the folder labeled With Nar Shaddaa Realistic Skybox.


UNINSTALLATION
-Delete the aforementioned files from your override folder.


THANX

Special Thanks to Sharen Thrawn for making the Realistic Nar Shaddaa Skybox mod.

Yes, I had the M4-78 Enhancement Project. I know that it doesn't add the whole planet. By saying "M4-78" I meant its Ebon Hawk cockpit skybox. There are two files in the zip - EBO_Sky01 and EBO_Sky02, which include the cockpit skyboxes for vanilla planets. It's understandable that there's no M4-78 skybox in any of these, because M4-78 isn't literally a vanilla planet. But there aren't any files in the zip expect for those aforementioned two, thus not including M4-78 cockpit skybox.

Well this is embarrassing... I forgot to put the M4-78 texture file in the zip folder! Well, as it happens I'm returning to this project, so I'll add it once I do Peragus.

This file used to be tagged as TSLRCM Incompatible for some reason. That is false, this mod is compatible, and I've updated the file properties.

A very welcome mod, particularly since TSL's vanilla cockpit skyboxes are decidedly worse than K1's (which weren't great, but they're at least tolerable; TSL's on the other hand... Korriban is especially bad). Extra props for the version using Sharen Thrawn's Nar Shaddaa skyboxes.

Note: If you're also using Kexikus' TSL Backdrop Improvements mod, you will have to choose which mod's 003EBOq.mdl and 003EBOq.mdx files you prefer.
