KOTOR 2 Alpha Textures
Description:
This is an attempt to restore the K2 visuals, to CLOSELY match those used by the Obsidian during the Alpha stages of development, as seen in promotional screenshots and videos. Just like with KOTOR 1 many early game textures still exist ,in their low quality format, in the game files.
This IS NOT a 100% faithful restoration, more a creative interpretation. (SEE screenshots). I don't think that is possible, or its beyond my capabilities. Textures are UPSCALES to 2k. Uploaded collage of promotional images.
Installation:
Textures are "High Resolution" upscales of base game images.(sometimes modified where necessary) They COULD be used as STANDALONE. However, i recommend/ the intent  was, as a patch for my mod. - KOTOR 2 HD Galaxy Mod  https://www.nexusmods.com/kotor2/mods/1174
If you have it, just extract the folders into override and REPLACE, when prompted.
OPTIONAL FILES:
Ive included a SEPARATE alternate appearance for TELOS.(not the red one! See images)
Also included retextures for the Droids used in "Alternate Peragus mining Droids" by FF97, also 2k.
WARNING - alpha droid models have a animation errors!

I am ashamed to say, this took longer, than it ever should have. Such a simple thing, when you think about it. Oh well. Description - Better? charakter portraits for your favorite crew, who all hate eachother. And finally, some use for that awesome Obsidian art.

Pretty much, what is says, the mod contains higher resolution versions for most of the item icons in KOTOR 1. Namely - Armor, Weapons, Headgear, Shields and other Usables, Droid Gear, Belts, Implants and other miscellaneous items. Feel free to modify and reuse. Giving Credit is appreciated. Would have liked to include crystals too, but oh well. Maybe next update. Needless to say this works best with stuff like:
KotOR High Resolution Menus 1.4 by "ndix" -
 
Cheers and Happy Playing!!!
 

These are basically High Definition upscaled assets for the first Kotor title.  I was inspired by the games original awful stoneage 800x600 artwork and NDIX's
 groundbreaking  work. Mod does not touch every original GUI element, and as such is not yet feature complete. For one, most LOADING SCREENS are still missing HD versions. They will come eventually.
 
My hope is people find these as pleasing of an improvement, as i did. Instructions, such as they are, are in the README. As, this is my first mod, any ideas, suggestion, criticism, repackaging improvemts are highly encouraged. The Mod has been created with 16:9 aspect ratios and 1080/1440p in mind. I shall do my best to fix any potential problems.
