1. DESCRIPTION:

This mod overhauls the female Twi'lek NPCs in KotOR 1 and adds 26 new playable female Twi'lek heads.

NPC Overhaul:
- Upscaled and updated dancer outfits.
- Body skin tones all match head skin tones.
- Added specular highlights to body textures.
- Added specular highlights with a bump map to the heads, giving female lekku the same light-reactive shine male Twi'leks have. Eyes and lips also get a subtle shine.
- NPCs now use different lekku positioning per head, so they no longer all look like pure reskins.
- Gives a unique appearance to:
   - Yuthura Ban when encountered on Dantooine
   - Zaerdra - Hidden Beks bodyguard, Taris
   - Lyn Sekla - dancer, Taris
   - Janice Nall - droid shop owner, Taris
   - Kandon's Bodyguard - Black Vulkar Base
   - Malare - Bastila's quest 
   - Lena - Mission's quest
   - Zoriis Bafka - swoop racer, Tatooine
   - Casandra Mateil - swoop racer, Manaan
   - Zeena - swoop racer, Manaan

Playable Heads:
- 26 playable female Twi'lek models, including every female Twi'lek NPC.
- A number of completely new heads.
- Dark side transitions. 
- Every playable head comes with a Handmaiden-style underwear model with matching skin tones.

2. INSTALLATION:

Run Install.exe and select your KotOR 1 game directory.

There are 3 installation options.

- Default Installation: Includes playable Twi'lek models and replacements for NPC Twi'leks. You probably want this one.
- Playable Twi'leks ONLY: Includes only models for the player character, NPC Twi'leks will remain unchanged
- NPC replacement ONLY: Replaces models for NPC Twi'leks, does not add any playable characters

If you use the default installation, you DO NOT need to install NPC replacement ONLY or Playable Twi'leks ONLY.

You should be safe to reinstall this mod on top of itself without any problems.

You will probably want to use a widescreen mod such as this
Without a high resolution, the bump mapping looks pretty bad.

A "backup" folder is created by the installer in the same directory. Don't delete it if you plan to uninstall later.

---

3. UNINSTALLATION:

Run Install.exe, select your KotOR 1 directory, and use the "Tools > uninstall/restore backup" option to revert all changes made by this mod.

---

4. KNOWN ISSUES:

If you have met any of the NPCs, they will not have their unique appearance.  You should use a save from beforehand.

If you find any bugs or problems, please report them.

---

5. MOD COMPATIBILITY:

Installing this should not break any other mods or have any conflicts, including K1R.
This mod only touches female Twi'lek head/body models, textures, and appearance-related files - no dialogue, scripting, or module changes. Should be compatible with all other mods other than any other mods that have changed the female Twi'lek appearances, this mod will obviously stop the old appearances from showing.  All files should have unique names, so this should not overwrite other mods, and it would just take Appearance.2da changes (or an uninstallation) to revert. 

Notably, this mod conflicts with KotOR 1 Twi'lek Female NPC Diversity
That mod directly installs to the override folder instead of into modules, so you will need to uninstall that mod if you want to see the NPC appearances from this mod.  However, if you wish to keep any appearances from that mod or any other female Twi'lek NPC mods, you can install those after this one to overwrite specific NPCs without an issue.

Do not use the Steam Workshop for KotOR.  It will almost certainly end with compatibility issues.

7. PERMISSIONS:

Please let me know if you plan on using any of the files in my mod for your own mod. The answer is "yes you may", but I would like to know what you are doing with it!

Do not directly reupload this mod anywhere else.

THIS MODIFICATION IS NOT SUPPORTED BY BIOWARE/OBSIDIAN ENTERTAINMENT OR LUCASARTS OR ANY LICENSORS/SPONSORS OF THE MENTIONED COMPANIES. USE THIS FILE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

To Install

1. Download: PFHA04
2. Copy all files to the Knights of the Old republic's Override folder.
(Example location - C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\swkotor\Override)
3. When/if prompted to overwrite files, press okay.
4. If you like the mod; leave a comment or endorse! (It would be much appreciated) Made with love.

Bring a new look and movement set to KOTOR I’s Terentateks. This replacement pairs a custom creature model and 4K textures with converted Star Wars: The Old Republic animations, including claw-slashing attacks, idle and movement cycles, damage reactions, death and roar motions.

The replacement covers every creature using the original Terentatek appearance throughout the base game, including Kashyyyk, Korriban and scripted transformations. Existing encounter scripts, quests, statistics, loot and native soundset assignments are preserved. Campaign roars occur when the original game scripts or animation system request them.

Requirements

KOTOR I for PC. No additional mods, runtime DLLs, custom launcher or executable patches are required. TSLPatcher is included for Windows installation. The 4096 × 4096 textures require additional graphics memory.

Installation

1. Close the game and extract the entire ZIP into its own folder outside the game directory.
2. Run TSLPatcher.exe, select Install Mod, and choose the KOTOR I folder containing swkotor.exe. Do not select Override.
3. Wait for installation to finish and check the log for errors. Keep the installer and its backup folder.

The installer merges the Terentatek appearance settings into an existing appearance.2da and preserves unrelated changes. Do not manually copy the supplied appearance.2da into Override. A new game is not required for this appearance replacement; restart the game after installing.

Compatibility

Install after other appearance-table mods. Mods that replace the same Terentatek appearance or the same model and texture resources conflict. Creatures assigned a separate appearance by another mod are outside this replacement’s scope. K1R compatibility has not been tested; the required compatibility field is therefore marked No.

This release contains no test maps, test creatures, saves or plot scripts. The gallery includes four Blender model renders showing the front, profile, claw attack and roar, plus one in-game screenshot from the development test area. Render lighting differs from in-game lighting.

Uninstallation

Restore the files from this installation’s backup folder. Remove files created by the installer only when no previous version was backed up. See README.txt for the complete file list and appearance.2da instructions. Uninstall in reverse installation order to avoid discarding later mods’ table changes.

This Script is meant to replace texture names in the KotOR Model Node ->Mesh -> Main Texture textbox in KBlender. 

To USE
1)In Blender switch to the scripting- text editor (shift+f11)
2)Create a new Text Data Block (ALT N)
2)Paste the script
3)On lines 10 and 11 replace "blue" (make sure to replace "blue" on BOTH lines) with your original texture name AND replace "green" with the new texture. -You can replace just part i.e. bladeblue will become bladegreen, OR specify the whole name (replace "blue" with "bladeblue" and "green" with "testgreen" and blueblade will become testgreen.

INSTALLATION

1. you must install JC's Cloaked Jedi Robes for everything to work properly: 

2. install the same Qel Droma robes mod by Effixian: 

3. then install the Movie Style Master Robes mod by N-DReW25:

and finally you can then install this mod

to Properly install this mod, delete all mods with the names starting with PFBI05 and PMBI05 in the Master Robes mod folder because they are in tpc format and this mod is in .tga format meaning it won't work while the .tpc files are in you're override folder.

Hope you enjoy this mod -Sebastian The Blue Bird.

However recently I had the thought of "what if I made the robes to look like the Red Brown and Blue robes from JC's Fashion Line I: Cloaked Jedi Robes for K1 1.4 which you can also download here if you want that mod instead: 

it turned out to be quite successful. I used the white and black robes from the OG movie style robes mod by DeadMan and made new textures from the red blue and qel Droma Robes which I will upload separately Initially I made it just for myself but I decided to share it on Deadly Stream for others to enjoy, I hope you like my first mod.

INSTALLATION:
Step 1: you must install the original mod by N-DReW25 for this mod to work properly which also requires JC's Jedi robes mod I have left the links for both mods above the installation.

Step 2: to install this retexture, first you must look through the names of all files from this mod, then delete all .tpc files with the same name as all files in this mods folder as this mod's files are in .tga format and tpc files appear first in Kotor, meaning if you just put this mods files in the Override, the mod would not work because the .tpc files are still in the Override folder (I would have just made the mod files .tpc files but this is my first mod and I don't know how to do that im a complete noob)

Once you have put the retexture files in the override and deleted the .tpc files with the same name you are good to go enjoy my first mod and let me know if you come across any bugs.

Fixes several problems in Knights of the Old Republic that appear when playing above 60 FPS.

Included fixes:

• Dialogue letterbox timing

• Post-combat movement freeze

• Free-look mouse sensitivity

• Animated textures such as rivers, waterfalls, and flashing mines

• Lightsaber trails

• Tree leaves and similar moving effects

• Water ripples and force fields

Should make the animations and timings feel as close as possible to their speed when played at 60fps.  No longer do you need to lock your frame rate to enjoy the game.

Tested up to 240 FPS.

But should work at even higher fps though let me know if any issues arise.

Requirements:

• Kotor Patch Manager 0.6.3

• KOTOR 1.03

If your swkotor.exe has already been modified by widescreen, 4 GB patch, or other executable patches, I have an experimental adapter available on Github.  It's also compatible with other kpatches.  Also let me know if any issues happen with the adapter.

Do not install the standalone versions of these fixes alongside this combined version, such as J's post combat fix or my individual fixes on my GitHub or previous deadlystream post.  Source code and alt download available below.

We get a lot of stuff on the Rakata homeworld, most of which we don't need. It's kind of annoying since it bogs down our inventory and we don't get to buy any more cool stuff. 

Enter a new NPC on the Nameless World: Kalon Chund, a stranded merchant hiding in the safety of the crashed starship outside the Elder's settlement. He has a huge inventory for you to choose from, and his assistant Scrapper is more than happy to buy any junk you've accumulated over the course of the game.

Instructions
Use the TSLPatcher

Permissions
Use this mod however you want. Just make sure to credit me.

Compatibility
This mod uses GFF to modify the area outside the Elder's settlement (unk_m41ab), removing the ship parts and one of the plasma vents. Any mods that affect the same area may not be compatible.
