Adds playable Sweet, Ryder, and OG Loc to KOTOR 1. Mouths should be weighted for dialogue. Any feedback much appreciated! Special thanks to huckpie for their permission to use the source files from their San Andreas Guitar Hero World Tour mods on Nexus, as I lacked the assets and tools to port the vanilla San Andreas Files into Blender. Go check out their mods on Nexus! Planning on releasing Big Smoke later potentially with voiced lines for the Player character, although right now experiencing some trouble with audio breaking the game at certain points but stay tuned! If not will at the least release the model.

This mod aims to improve the space scenes in Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords. This is done both to improve the visual quality as well as the continuity between cutscenes and playable areas. The changes made to achieve this are thus also twofold: First there are new high resolution textures provided for almost all space backdrops and then there are model changes to create more extensive edits. For a full list of what has been changed, see below (contains spoilers). Additionally there is an optional part of the mod that brings the galaxy map appearance of some planets in line with the new backdrops. See below for installation instructions. There are some mods by other authors that already do an amazing job at improving certain backdrops, so I did not see the need to imitate their work. Instead, I highly recommend you install those mods as well. I will list them below. COMPABILITY This mod is not compatible with other mods that edit the same textures or models. Notable exceptions are TSLRCM and M4-78 EP: - This mod overrides 222TEL15.mdl and 222TEL15.mdx provided by TSLRCM. This will replace some VISUAL ONLY! changes by TSLRCM with my version. Check the screenshots to see which one you prefer. - Also, this mod will override 003EBOq.mdl and 003EBOq.mdx from M4-78EP. In this case my mod includes the changes done by M4-78 EP, so you can safely override those files (make a backup though). INSTALLATION If you have TSLRCM and/or M4-78 EP installed, go to your Override folder and make backups of 222TEL15.mdl, 222TEL15.mdx, 003EBOq.mdl and 003EBOq.mdx just in case. Then copy all files from the "To Override" folder into your Override folder. If you want to install the galaxy map changes as well, also copy the files from the "Optional Galaxy Map Changes" folder to your Override folder. And finally I highly recommend you install the other backdrop improvement mods listed below. UNINSTALLATION Delete this mod's files from your Override folder and restore the backups of 222TEL15.mdl, 222TEL15.mdx, 003EBOq.mdl and 003EBOq.mdx (if you have TSLRCM and/or M4-78 EP installed). RECOMMENDED MODS - Improved Peragus Asteroid Fields by Vasilii Zaytsev - Replacement Peragus II Artwork by Trench - Telos Citadel Station Skybox by Quanon - Alternatively you can use the TEL_Bdrp.tga and TEL_Bdrp.txi from TSL Remastered by sELFiNDUCEDcOMA KNOWN BUGS - The asteroids during the Peragus escape sequence appear out of nowhere. This is either due to my limited knowledge or due to limitations in our tools but I haven't been able to fix it yet. Should that bother you, remove 003EBOs.mdl and 003EBOs.mdx from your Override folder. Note however that you will also loose the Dxun backdrop for the Arrival at Dxun scene.

The same as my K1 mod, this one replaces the low resolution star and nebula textures with higher quality ones. Update: Thanks to GNihilus2 I added compressed versions of my star textures, reducing their size from 3 MB to around 50 KB. There is no visible difference and there's also no need to download the new version if you already downloaded 1.0 unless your harddrive is really full. ABOUT This mod replaces the starfield and nebula textures used as backdrops during many sequences of the game to a higher resolution (1024x1024). INSTALLATION Copy all files included in this archive into your Override folder. UNINSTALLATION Take them out again.

If you update from version 1.0.x to 1.1 make sure to read the special instructions in the read-me! In order to update to 1.1.1 from any previous version, delete all 306nara.wok, 306narb.wok and 306nard.wok from your Override folder. If you had version 1.1 installed there is no need for anything else, otherwise follow the instructions in the read-me. 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: M4-78 Enhancement Project Coruscant - Jedi Temple If you find any issues or have any other comments, please let me know and I'll see what can be done. INSTALLATION: For installation instructions check the read-me files of the individual downloads. You either have to run an installer or just drop files into your Override folder. For the mod to take full effect you need a savegame where you have not yet left Citadel Station. If you update from version 1.0.x to 1.1 make sure to read the special instructions. I also highly recommend to install the fog fix if you are using the latest Steam patch. 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.
