MOD AUTHOR: Olegkuz1997

FOR WHICH GAMES: For Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic

Description:
----------------
What does this mod do? Nothing much.
This mod is a remake of the final scene with Admiral Dodonna's transmission, and more specifically, a remake of the hologram textures of the two characters. This mod is pretty rudimentary, I enlarged the original textures with AI and then manually edited them in photoshop. Tried to give the effect of "interference" and glow. Did it for myself, but if anyone wants it, take it. Yes, I'm aware of the awesome DarthParametric mod, but there were two things I didn't like about it: too strong blue color that kills the rest, and the lack of glow from the hologram. In his mod, the work is much more comprehensive, with redesigned UVs and models, which I have no idea about. Naturally, you have to choose between my mod and DarthParametric's mod, as they are done with different approach.
There might be some questions about the hue, as it's not really "blue". It's actually something between the movies and the in-game version (turquoise). In the end, this is a texture mod, so anyone can open the file in paint or photoshop and adjust the color to their liking.

Installation:
----------------
Drop tga and txi files in your game’s Override folder.

To uninstall:
----------------
Take them out again.

Known bugs:

Holo-Vandar turned out great, but Dodonna was a bit of a letdown. The whole thing is, I think, that she has an incorrect, and frankly crappy "mirror" model, so the textures of "interference" are not quite correctly displayed. Oh yeah, and she's also a bit translucent (eyeballs and mouth). I had to make the head textures brighter to try and hide these details. But overall, it's not too bad. I recorded a little video where you can see for yourself. But in general, this is a normal texture mod, so there should be no problems.

No New Level Sound

MOD AUTHOR: Olegkuz1997

FOR WHICH GAMES: For Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic

Description:
----------------
This simple and primitive mod I made because I could not find it anywhere else. Its essence is simple: it removes from the game that nasty and annoying "bell" sound of a new level, which will follow you everywhere until you actually raise your level (when you enter a location, load the game, etc.). Comes in handy for those who intend to save levels on Taris. After all, we have eyes, and we can't help but notice the huge arrow on our character icon. Give your ears a break at last. Useful, eh?

Installation:
----------------
Drop wave file in your game’s Override folder

To Uninstall:
----------------
Take them out again.

Known Bugs:
-----------------
They do not and cannot exist.
