Summary This mod adds five new lightsaber colors to Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, including the colors that were introduced in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II – The Sith Lords. The new colors are cyan, orange, pink, silver, and viridian. The orange and cyan blades are similar to but visually distinct from Heart of the Guardian and Mantle of the Force. In KOTOR 2, the Heart of the Guardian and Mantle of the Force textures are simply reused, but I decided to retain the idea that these are unique crystals, so they are a little different from the standard orange and cyan. There is one item drop for each new color. Cyan: in some rubble near Juhani's haunt in the grove on Dantooine. Orange: on the corpse of Shaela Nur in the Tomb of Naga Sadow on Korriban. Pink: in the crystal cave on Dantooine. Silver: carried by an elite Sand People warrior in the desert on Tatooine near the entrance to their territory. Viridian: on the corpse of poor Nemo inside the ruins on Dantooine. Additionally, Suvam Tan on Yavin will sell the new crystals. He will have at least one and up to three of each color when he restocks his store. I thought it would be weird if he sold only the new colors, so for extra flavor he will also sell crystals in the original colors (blue, red, green, yellow, and violet). I have also swapped the placement of the other crystals in the cave around so they match the appearance of the crystal formations from which you receive them better. The blue crystal comes from the crystal formation that looks blue, etc. The lightsaber blade textures are based on the template I developed for my Lightsaber Visual Effects mod. I suggest that you also use that mod for aesthetic consistency. There are two versions of the mod: one that uses the original hilt models, and one that uses Hi Poly Tin Cans courtesy @VarsityPuppet. Installation Extract files from the downloaded archive. Run Extra_Saber_Colors_K1.exe. Click "Install Mod" and select your game directory (default name SWKOTOR). Optionally, copy the files from the Alternate Viridian folder to Override if you want to use the alternate version that is closer to the original KOTOR 2 viridian texture, replacing the previously installed files. Uninstallation Remove the installed files or replace from backups if necessary. Compatibility Ths mod uses TSL Patcher for compatibility, but various subtleties may make it incompatible with other lightsaber mods or mods that affect the same areas. This mod patches the following: upcrystals.2da danm14ac danm14ae korr_m39aa liv_m99aa tat_m18aa This mod must be installed after any non-TSL Patcher mods that edit those. On Tatooine, one instance of g_tuskenmale003 (Elite Warrior) has been replaced by a new creature file so only one of them will drop a silver crystal. The other instance of this creature is unaffected This mod utilizes the following model variations for lightsaber crystals and hilts: 200 206 207 208 209 This mod is compatible with my Darksaber mod.

2 pointsRelease soon, 2 years after starting the project. In fairness, the original mod is from 12 years ago so I'd say I've made progress.

Summary This mod alters the appearance of Jedi robes worn by party members in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, giving them new models based on their basic clothing with added cloaks. Installation Note: If you intend to use this mod in conjunction with either my Cloaked Jedi Robes or Cloaked Hybrid Robes, they should be installed first. Extract files from the downloaded archive. Run Fashion_I_Cloaked_Party_Robes_K1.exe. Select one of the installation options: a) 100% Brown b) Brown-Red-Blue Click "Install Mod" and select your game directory (default name SWKOTOR). Uninstallation Remove the installed files or replace from backups if necessary. Compatibility This mod uses my Supermodel Port for K1. This makes it super cripplingly incompatible with any other mods that alter the game's supermodels (the S_Female and S_Male files) unless the other mods utilize my Supermodel Port assets. These edits are necessary to give the player supermodels the bones required for the cloaks to animate. This mod's supermodels include my Supermodel Fixes for K1. So you don't have to worry about using that, or if these files are overwriting those. Use this mod's files. These supermodel edits somewhat alter some animations in the game. These adjustments were necessary to prevent the old stuff from clipping with the new stuff. It's essentially what Obsidian did when they added the new bones to the supermodel, but I've reversed the changes a bit to bring the animations closer to the original K1 style. Some models aren't so happy with the new rig. I've made some hotfixes for such cases where I can, but they won't be compatible with other mods that alter these models. I've instructed TSLPatcher not to overwrite these. P_JuhaniBB.mdl and P_Juhani.mdx are two such files that will be skipped. If you use the Juhani Catlike Head Mod, I suggest that you use my version because I happened to fix the same thing that mod fixes anyway. You can copy those two files manually from tslpatchdata to Override. While this mod adds skirt bones to the player supermodels, at this time it does not add the bones or the necessary animations to the cutscene models. So the skirt flaps may appear stiff in scenes that use those. Credits KOTOR Tool – Fred Tetra TSLPatcher – stoffe, with updates by Fair Strides NWMax – Joco KOTORMax & MDLEdit – bead-v waifu2x – nagadomi This mod contains assets ported from Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II – The Sith Lords by Obsidian Entertainment. Permisisons I hereby grant nobody except myself permission to upload some or all of this mod anywhere for any reason. For any reason. I have uploaded a separate mod resource with essentially all of these assets free for anyone who wants to use them. But I want to keep them separate for simplicity's sake, so this release here is strictly a mod. Disclaimers OBSIDIAN IS THE NEW BLACK. DON'T WEAR BIOWARE AFTER LABOR DAY.

1 pointQuanons modding tutorials A long time ago, on the LucasForums, I made some tutorials. Most where about 3d models and how to get them working in the game. Mind the long time ago, most of these tutorials will mention older modding tools. Still, they might contain some helpful knowledge and a few handy tips. The files aren't ordered, most names should give you a good clue though, what the tutorial is about. Most are old AVI videos, the quality isn't super. Other files often contain a word doc and some extra gubbins you can open in 3Ds Max. Not much is said on how to model in 3Ds Max, for that, far better videos and instructions can be found on youtube and on the internet at large. Even I use it frequently to learn new tricks or speed up my work or to troubleshoot a model. Also, keep trying and trying, you don't want to know how often I had to. Happy modding! And enjoy the nostalgia trip.

From the album: Tests
Close up shot of the Grenn reskin face. Some may notice that I posted a reskin of him a long time ago; and I've been waiting a while to update it. The collar is that way because I wanted the suit to resemble a police uniform, and the bulky piece on top just didn't look right to me. It is probably subject to a revision just as well. -
1 pointWhy would you want a portrait that looks nothing like the actual in-game character? You might as well just use random photos at that point. Now if it could do textures, then that would be a different matter.

1 pointProgress has been going somewhat slow but still steady lately. But I figured I might as well show some of the stuff that has happened. Let's start with the full quality Coruscant skybox, shown here as part of the Coruscant mod, but it's the same that's also used in vanilla: Next up we have one of the three Korriban skyboxes used in BoS:SR. This one is the same as the TSL Korriban skybox. One of the others is the K1 vanilla Korriban skybox and the last one is unique to BoS:SR but I haven't started that one yet. And finally a screenshot of what I'm currently working on (apart from rendering the TSL skyboxes): BoS:SR Taris The lighting of all these layers doesn't quite match yet but I'm getting there. And as a final note for today: I'm pretty sure that I want to make skyboxes for Yavin IV and Ord Mantell. But I have to look at their modules first to see if that's possible with the quality goal I have in mind. If it is, both of them shouldn't take very long.

0 pointsA little background information on what Artbreeder is. . . Artbreeder.com is a website that lets you combine and edit images using AI and machine learning to make portraits, landscapes, and objects. Luckily, it's free. Before today, I've seeing Artbreeder examples of characters from SWTOR which seem to my eye to be improvements on the original static picture. Source: https://twitter.com/Sutherland1P It was inevitable that the same concept would come to KOTOR characters. I leave it to you judge if the example below is an improvement or not. Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/kotor/comments/igdcqi/you_are_beautiful_to_me_exile_a_dead_spot_in_the/ I have to to wonder how long it will be before someone decides to redo some or all of the humanoid characters using that program. (I don't think the droid characters would turn out the same way.)

0 pointsTo throw a differing opinion out there, not everyone looks like their Driver's License or passport photo. Variations of hair, makeup, colors, size, scars, and others exist, therefore, a portrait that doesn't quite match the in-game textures may not be so far fetched, if the portrait is considered a type of Republic photo ID. I wouldn't be opposed to using these types of portraits in game, I'm fairly certain there are mods that already change the portraits to appear different from in-game characters.
