This mod replaces the terrible low poly and sprite-based crowd in the Dark Side ending with a full 3D crowd. Due to engine limitations, these are static in order to preserve the frame rate, but the original only has some slight wobbling of the sprites anyway. The two animated Sith Officers that walk up and salute still remain, as in the original version, although they have been tweaked so that the transition from walking to saluting is a little less janky. Both now also bow in a later shot, as intended. Two doors that were missing have been added (also to the regular Temple Summit module) so Bastila and Revan have an obvious path to the dais besides Force Leap. Some of the level geometry has been consolidated to improve performance, since models with high individual mesh counts seem to tank the frame rate. As of v1.2, all the vanilla lightmaps have been completely replaced with entirely new higher resolution ones, cleaning up artefacts and adding in a lot of missing shadows. Known Issues / To-Do List: Currently, the DS credit sequence does not play in fullscreen when movies are enabled due to the requirement for additional exe patching not currently done by any existing widescreen patch. I have provided info about this to ndix UR for incorporation into his high res menu patcher, but there is no ETA on an update for that. In the meantime, for those willing to crack open a hex editor, here are the offsets you need to edit with your own resolution values in the CD/GOG exe: 0x28F9E0 – E0 01 0x28F9E5 – 80 02 0x28F9FA – 80 02 0x28FA04 – E0 01 Credits and Thanks: @bead-v for MDLEdit and KOTORMax. @ndix UR for TGA2TPC, TPCView, MDLOps 1.x. @seedhartha for KOTORBlender for Blender 2.8+, especially for adding the lightmap baking feature. Thanks to @ebmar for offering his 2¢ on various aspects and for prompting me to dig this one back out of the "on hiatus" pile. Thanks to @N-DReW25 for suggesting the addition of the doors. Skybox textures in screenshots/video are from @Kexikus's High Quality Skyboxes II.
