An update on the K1 Alien Pack update: It is almost ready, though there are other mods that I am developing that I'm too absorbed in thus resulting in the delay of the K1 Alien Pack and the RC-K1CP update that'll restore the Echani. This post is mostly being made as a reminder for myself so that if I see likes and/or comments on this post it'll spur me to finish the update. The K1 Alien Pack shall include the above previewed Echani NPCs, three new additional Trandoshan Skins and 32 new Gamorrean skins. The Gamorrean skins are nothing special to look at. As we may know, there are four Gamorrean skins in the game each with their own unique outfit and Gamorrean appearance. I would describe these four Gamorrean appearances as ranging from young, adult, middle-aged, and old. What I've done is that I've taken the four different outfit and applied them all to the other appearances, so imagine the old Gamorrean variant that usually wears blue wearing the red outfit that's usually worn by the young Gamorrean and vice versa. Doing this resulted in the the Gamorrean skins increasing from 4 to 16. I then made another four new clothing variants for the Gamorreans, thus increasing the skins from 16 to 31. The end result is that every single Gamorrean in the game will have a unique appearance as no two Gamorrean appearances will be used anywhere else in the game because there are just so many Gamorrean skins. Again, all of this is almost ready so hopefully we shall be seeing this update sooner rather than later.

In that case, your best bet would be to use either Holocron Tool or Kotor Tool to export the Darth Nihilus MDL and MDX (n_darthnihiuls.mdl and n_darthnihilus.mdx) files into a directory to work from. Then you'll want to download the appropriate version of Blender and KotorBlender https://deadlystream.com/files/file/1853-kotorblender-for-blender-36-and-42/ . The extension guide for installing it "from disk" is here https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/4.2/editors/preferences/extensions.html#bpy-ops-extensions-package-install-files This will allow you take the Darth Nihilus MDL and manipulate it from there. I'm not sure about replacing the entire model and getting all its animations to work properly, but then again, I'm a total n00b with Blender and modding as well. Hopefully this helps point you in the right direction. I'm also not sure if this is the only model used for this character in cutscenes and gameplay. Finding that out would require that you track down the modules that this character loads into.
