Schematic Lightsaber Mod 2021 (SLM 2021) =============================================================================================================== for TSLRCM 1.8.5/1.8.6 Author: Kaidon Jorn Date: Autumn 2020-Summer 2021 This is a large scale lightsaber mod which was built using TSLRCM 1.8.5. This lightsaber mod will not work properly without TSLRCM installed. It should be installed directly after the **DeadlySteam version** of TSLRCM 1.8.5 and on the **LEGACYPC version** of the game from Steam (NOT THE ASPYR VERSION). In this mod every party member that is trainable as Jedi will have a uniquely named lightsaber to build on the workbench through new dialog options after they have become Jedi. These initial dialogs will require color crystals to access but will then unlock that specific lightsaber to be built as many times as you like, as long as you have color crystals. These dialogs have been expanded quite a bit to offer a bit more immersion. Huge thanks to Fair Strides. In version 2021, lightsaber schematics have been redesigned so that you must equip it on your forearm and activate it like a forearm shield. They are destroyed once you are able to use them (they have a one minute cooldown), but will open the workbench dialog option to create them. You will still need to have at least one color crystal in your inventory and you must have completed your lightsaber quest in order to open the workbench options for them, since completing your lightsaber quest grants you the power to learn a schematic. Both the Jedi Masters and Sith Lords have their own unique lightsabers to wield. These have upgraded stats, weathered and worn textures, and are collectible by the player. There are also two new quests to find the parts of two different lightsabers which you can then build on the workbench, one begins in the Telos military base and the other somewhere on Dxun. 2.0 ----------> 2021 Changes List ================================================================================================================ All SLM Lightsaber's now use Crazy34's New Lightsaber Blade Models with ambient lighting! Thanks very much to him. All lightsaber schematics are now forearm equippable items that have a one minute cooldown before you can attempt to learn another schematic. The Workbench dialog file has been expanded bigly to be able to deconstruct all SLM and vanilla game sabers. Sion's Pain and the Infernal Warrior's Lightsaber now use SithSpecter's Unstable Blade Textures with ambient lighting. The tank droid boss in the military base on Telos no longer drops the Telos Defender's Crystal. It now drops the first part that starts a quest to build that lightsaber model on the workbench. The saber itself is now called "Honorable Duelist Lightsaber", and has a gold blade and glow. A new (old) lightsaber model has returned and uses SithSpecter's Unstable Blade Textures. "Acheron's Frost" can now be aquired through a new quest that starts somewhere in the first visit of Dxun. Now compatible with Markus Ramiken's Workbench Crystal Attunement Mod. <<Only drop the .ncs script file into your Override folder, the workbench dialog file is already compatible.>> Training Sabers are now fully upgradeable and come with a 1-8 damage by themselves. Mandalorian War Leader's Lightsaber has been removed permanently and replaced by Redeemed Revan's Lightsaber. The schematic now drops in the tomb on Korriban. All of the looted lightsabers have been touched up in the texture department, giving them a weathered and/or worn look, and gave them all various stats. Eloquence now has a silvery blue blade and glow. Upgraded stats. All party member lightsaber building dialogs have all been rebuilt with excitingly new and fancy scripts from FairStrides of DeadlyStream fame and glory. They will all meditate on their crystals after building their lightsabers. Visas Marr now builds an old RandomSabers model I named "Miralukan Seer's Lightsaber". The Omen is held by her on the first meeting in the Ebon Hawk. Freedon Nadd's Lightsaber is now fully upgradeable standard blade saber. Bao-Dur's Liberator no longer uses the "chrome1" texture. Alderaanian Battle Saber had a model switch and now uses the old RandomSabers "Quillian" hilt. Master Vash's Redemption had a model switch, and now uses the old RandomSabers "Schism" hilt. The Solace sabers now have a "pale gold" blade and glow. Freedon Nadd now has a seperate standard bladed hilt that you can find in the Sith tomb on Dxun. The crystal cave on Dantooine has extra crystals to aquire, it is tied to the "Weapon of the Jedi" questline. Compatibilty for M4-78 has not yet happened, but I will get to it eventually. (I hope...) Many other improvements I don't remember since I began rebuilding the mod back in October of 2020. Install by running the .exe file called "SLM 2021" Removal: 1.) Open SLM's BACKUP folder - copy and paste all .MOD files into game's MODULES folder and let overwrite. 2.) Copy and paste party member .DLG files (including workbnch.dlg) and any .2DA files found in SLM's BACKUP folder into game's OVERRIDE folder and let overwrite. 3.) Copy and paste the dialog.tlk found in SLM's BACKUP folder into KotOR2's main folder. Let overwrite. 4.) Delete all saber files from the game's OVERRIDE folder. (tga's, .txi's, .mdl's, .mdx's, uti's) Notes: *Not compatible with any other saber mods (i.e. Varsity Puppet's Duplisaber, USM, HotOR, etc, etc) UNLESS it only changes the default hilt models. This mod uses (almost) every lightsaber model slot available (13 thru 255). *As always, do not try to put a crystal that was made for a double-bladed saber into a single-bladed saber (except Solace or the personal quest saber) or vice versa because it will crash your game. *As previously stated, you will not find Vash's or Kaah's hilts unless you have M4-78EP (1.2) and the SLM compatibility patch installed. *For companions like Visas, Mira, and Kreia, it's probabaly a good idea to stand off to one side of them when starting their saber making dialogs. They may get stuck trying to path find. *All 13 schematics should be in your possession after helping Talia or Vaklu on Onderon. All dropped saber loot should be in your possession after the Nihilus fight, except Sion's. *If you want Nihilus' lightsaber you must ask Visas for it. It will come with the mask. *Kreia's Peragus saber is lost after Sion cuts her hand off. Don't expect it back. * Do not try to disassemble a hilt that is already equipped by a party member. If you want to switch a party member's saber, make the new one first, then equip it on them before disassembling the one they had (or be controlling the character you want to disassemble on). No clue why this happens but it will crash the game. * At time of release, there may be a small bug in 903MAL where Sion dosen't walk to his spot where the assassins circle around him directly after the Atton fight. (903Kreia.dlg) (((UPDATE:7/7/2021 It works fine))) Credits: Special thanks to Crazy34 for releasing his new saber blade models and letting me convert all my lightsabers to his blade models. Thanks to Fair Strides for all the scripting help, he basically came up with the force power script that allows you to learn a schematic. I just modified it to what I needed. Thanks to SithSpecter for use of his unstable blade textures. Thanks to VP (and all the Holowan Labs modders) for coding and general modding help over the years. Thanks to Deadman for making the training sabers power on and off and providing the textures. Thanks to DeadlyStream for hosting my mods. 1.0 - 2.0 changes list ================================================================================================================== Redesigned lightsaber schematics into usable items that you "learn". Learning the schematic sets the boolean to "true" so it is memorized in the workbench dialog file, and the schematics are no longer cluttering up your inventory. It is no longer possible for Disciple to get stuck on the MedBay wall inside the Ebon Hawk since I made him jump to the workbench like Atton does. He will still walk back to the MedBay. Further developed party member saber building dialogs of all party members so alignment will matter. Added new scenes so that Kreia and Visas will now meditate on their crystals. Adjusted hit points or stats on some of the added bosses. Updated the dialog for Atris' Telos Academy schematic crate. Integrated Apostle Saber Addon patch and renamed them to "Solace", gave them unique blade color, made a new encounter for them in Dantooine Enclave sub-level. Returned them to the original chrome texture (baremetal didn't look right). Updated icons. Integrated Training Sabers from my TOR Sabers Mod. Credit to Darth Deadman for adding the energy fields that power on and off like a lightsaber on those. Added new double-bladed saber "Elite Assassin's Saberstaff". Made assassins in Sith Academy on Korriban wield double-bladed lightsabers. Remade alot of lightsaber icons. Updated textures on several saber hilts. Cut down on the use of chrome hilts alot. Reshaded most of the ones that still use it. Eloquence now has a cerulean blade. The cyan core/blue one from 1.0 was not up to par with the rest so I got rid of it. Master Vash now has an entirely new model from the archives, she now wields the 'Aggressor'. Updated all necessary files. Renamed Vrook's saber to 'Vigilance'. Updated all necessary files. Fixed Saquesh not giving the Alderaanian Battle Saber schematic as he should have been if you help the Exchange. Fixed Kreia taking the long way around to the workbench. Finally retired my beautiful 4900 poly Acheron Saber and gave Sion an old RandomSabers model ("the Banshee") with a "scratched up" texture, a much larger scaling and a deeper red blade/pinker core. Added new powerup and powerdown sounds for sabers. Renamed the old 'Warrior's Lightsaber' found in the Korriban Tomb to 'Fury'. Rewrote and rescripted the dialog for the Sith Ghost encounter in the Korriban Tomb. Added 'Infernal Warrior's Lightsaber' with a dark orange blade and a new boss in the late game Citadel Station to beat you over the head with it. Rescaled and reskinned Revan's TOR saber. Made a new saber mod (Revan's Canonical TOR Sabers) as a seperate add-on that is compatible with this one as the way to get that saber model - *though it will replace 'Mandalorian War Leader's'*. Readjusted stats on a few of the dropped sabers. Wrote descriptions for Master's sabers. Buffed Darth Traya (Atris) for Telos Academy fight and Darth Nihilus just a little.

Bao-Dur's Liberator's\Oppressor's Armor 2021 ------------------------------------------------------- Authors: Kaidon Jorn/Effix Compatible with TSLRCM 1.8.5 - 1.8.6 This mod adds a small quest to have Bao-Dur build his own non-force restrictive armor once he reaches 10th level . It's important to talk to him as soon as he hits 10th level so you can get the quest parts afterward on Nar Shaddaa, which you will find in both Tien's shop and in the Serroco thugs area. The quest will have you find some military fatigues and armor plating so that he may build the new Liberator or Oppressor's Armor depending on your alignment. The armor itself is medium class 7 with a dexterity bonus of +3, and was lovingly reskinned by none other than Effix of DeadlyStream and Steam Workshop notoriety. All credit for the reskinned Jamoah Hogra armor goes to him. Run the .exe to install ***IMPORTANT*** I strongly advise to install TSLRCM (and SLM) first before this mod. ===================================================================================================================== Permissions: You may not redistribute files contained herein and you may not use these files in your own mod without my consent.

DEFAULT HILTS REPLACEMENT MEGAPACK 6.0 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This mod will replace the default lightsaber hilt models in KotOR 2:The Sith Lords. All color crystals use one model, a gold lightsaber is still included but is only obtainable in game with the .mod file in the Optional Gold Saber Game Placement Folder(Daraala's Store, Dantooine.) which should be placed in the MODULES folder. Otherwise you will need to cheat it in (u_l_colo_11, g_w_lghtsbr12, g_w_dblsbr012, and g_w_shortsbr12) - or use KSE. Also, my new blade color textures have been made optional. Place those in the override folder, if you wish. This version now syncs with TSLRCM 1.8.3 restored bronze saber files. TSLRCM 1.8.3 is however not required to use this mod. Run the patcher.exe to install the main part of the mod. -QDJ

Authors: Kaidon Jorn & (Darth) Deadman This Version: April 2012 =================================== This saber mod now consists of 18 hilts - each in 10 colors, all of which are buildable on the workbench. The first set of 6 hilt styles are available to build as you are building your first saber with the vanilla saber quest. Then, once you've leveled up with an Advanced Class, there will be 12 more hilt style options. Some of these hilt models are leftovers from the HotOR Lightsaber mod, which fell upon hard times and was unable and unwilling to continue - but alas! A new lightsaber mod has risen from it's ashes, and most of the hilts were modeled based on TOR sabers. The vanilla game dialogs about Bao-Dur helping you build your saber have been removed, since you build it yourself on the workbench using any default game crystal. As well, the vanilla game's Lightsaber Quest journal entries have been modified to go with this saber quest better. Once you have built a new lightsaber, the crystal will change into the specific crystal for that lightsaber, so once you commit to a new lightsaber style, it's crystal is bound to that saber hilt. Also, the training sabers now do 1-10 damage, still with their +3/+4 energy field damages, to try and make them more worthwhile to use. Two new models have been included for the purple and yellow training sabers. You must run the TSL Patcher to fully install (aside from the lightsabers, copying files to Override folder will *not* work). Compatible with TSLRCM 1.7/1.8. Compatible with everything that dosen't use the same lightsaber model numbers. *This excludes HotOR and USM from being compatible. Compatible with Default Replacement MegaPack 4.1 or better. Compatible with Workbench Crystal Attunement Mod. Compatible with RandomSabers 6 Pack. Credits: -Darth_Deadman, for finishing off the training sabers and making them powered items that turn on and off like a lightsaber. Thanks Deadman! Thanks to Markus Ramikin, Varsity Puppet, Hassat Hunter for the Workbench Crystal Attunement mod. Bugs: None that I know of, if you get one then report it and I will see what I can do.

ABOUT: This mod replaces every skybox and every planetary backdrop in the game with a new high resolution version made from scratch. This includes a replacement of every skybox model to fix all the glaring issues with the original. There are also some additional minor changes that either fix issues with the vanilla environments or serve to better blend ingame terrain and skybox. Other than that I recommend you just check out the screenshots as pictures say more than a thousand words or check the video to see the animated skyboxes. Click the following image to see additional interactive screenshot comparisons: There are also add-ons with new skyboxes for the following mods: Brotherhood of Shadows: Solomon's Revenge Yavin IV Ord Mandell including InSidious' reskin Green Grass for Dantooine If you find any issues or have any other comments, please let me know and I'll see what can be done. INSTALLATION: If you have a previous version of this mod installed, remove it before installing the new version or you might run into some issues. For installation instructions check the read-me files of the individual downloads. Usually it's just copying files to your Override folder. For the mod to take full effect you need a savegame where you have not yet left Dantooine. COMPABILITY: This mod is not compatible with any mod that edits skyboxes in any way. This includes mods that only edit their models. There might also be rare incompabilities with mods that edit non-skybox area models if those models are also edited by this mod. PERMISSIONS: You may NOT redistribute any textures included in this archive without my explicit permission. You may however use all the models as long as you give me credit. CREDITS: This mod was created by Kexikus using mainly Terragen 4, Photoshop CS6 and 3ds Max as well as some After Effects.

This is a collection of various things that I found annoying enough to alter. It started with that crazy window on Nar Shaddaa, by the landing pad, that would mysteriously render anything that was behind it invisible. It turned out to be as simple as a missing TXI. But it was at this point that I decided to start collecting little things like that into a single mod, to be released to the general public when it became more substantial. Due to the nature of this mod, I haven't bothered to make a proper installer with the TSL Patcher. Just install whatever you want to install. Don't install what you don't want to install. Some of these fixes are included in TSLRCM, while others are not. Either way, it's compatible. Other mods may not be compatible; contact me if you have any questions.
