About This File
Using the techniques pioneered by the great modder Canderis, I have created my own version of the Darker Peragus formula.
However, when working with the darker areas, I noticed that no matter what I did, all of the Plasteel Canisters and Footlockers were much too bright.
And so, with the help of my modding compatriots, I have darkened all of the placeable items in the Peragus, Peragus Spacewalk, and Harbinger portions to match the darker lightmaps.
To Install:
Choose from either the full REDUX (WIth all of my customized lightmaps), or from the compatibility option (For those using Canderis' A Darker Peragus mod)
(Note: There are two versions available to download. Use the A_Darker_Peragus_REDUX_TSLRCM if you have TSLRCM installed, and A_Darker_Peragus_REDUX_Vanilla if you don't)
To Uninstall:
1) Replace the .mod files in your Modules folder with the .mod files found in the Backup folder
created by the TSLPatcher,
2) Replace the placeables.2DA in your Override with the placeables.2DA from the Backup folder, and
3) Copy all of the TGA MDX and TXI files from the TSLPatchdata folder to your Override
(let them overwrite files if they’re already there), and then delete them all from it
Permissions: Please inform me if you would like to use this mod or its assets in your own projects.
