Sith Holocron

Alternate Coruscant Skybox [Day Time]

A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic II: The Sith Lords

Author: Sith Holocron

 

DESCRIPTION:

I was recently asked by someone about another Coruscant skybox that I recently made for my upscale compilation for The Jedi Masters mod and whether they could use it for their mod. I just released the mod and I’d like for that mod to have a chance to find its audience before being picked over for parts so I made them a compromise: how about if I made you a new Coruscant skybox?  This is the result of that and I now offer it to you!

These skyboxes are for the Coruscant module that has the Jedi Council Chamber.  It will not cover the additional Coruscant areas that appears in either Trex’s “The Jedi Masters” mod or Deathdisco’s “Jedi Temple” mod.

INSTALLATION:

Place all of the TGA files into your Override folder.

UNINSTALL:

Remove those files from your Override.

Heyorange's Sith Uniform Reformation (Revised)

A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic

Original Author: Heyorange (aka Pataschka)

Upscales and Tweaks by Sith Holocron (with assistance)

 

Note from Sith Holocron:

You may be familiar with HeyOrange’s Sith Uniform Reformation mod.  This a revised version of that mod. This mod aims to not have the same method of dropping a swath of UTC files in your Override which makes for compatibility nightmares. The intention is for this mod to handle this integration through module injection.

DESCRIPTION:

Regarding the textures:

This mod upscales the original mod’s textures to 4 times their original size.  After that was done, I’ve tweaked the individual textures to add (or readd) detail that was either missing or misinterpreted by the upscaling AI. This includes adding detail where applicable such as:

·         New gold or silver braids by the zippers and the sleeves on certain officer uniforms

·         New rank bars on the chest, sleeve and pauldrons

·         New PIPs and rank symbols for those rank bars

·         New replacement pockets for both the male and female blouses.  Some with brand new code cylinders in those pockets, some without.  (Some of the original textures had empty pockets and I’ve kept those empty as HeyOrange did)

·         Readded fresh versions of the Regiment Insignia on the pauldrons and blouse pockets

·         New collar devices to replace the old ones

·         Clean up on some of the trouser stripes that were muddled during the AI upscale

·         New buttons to replace the drawn-on ones on ammo pouches

·         New eyes for the Sith Officers male and female heads

·         New bandage (by Malkior) for Major Hurka texture

The mod includes four install options labeled as:

1.      Basic Installation

2.      KOTOR Community Patch-Compatible Installation

3.      Extra: Sith Students + Czerka on Korriban Fix

4.      Extra: KOTOR 1 Restoration Fix

Option #1 is the base install, which contains all of the textures included in the original mod by HeyOrange with my upscales and edits, in addition to edits to N_SithComF02, N_SithComF03, N_SithComM02 and N_SithComM03, which are variants of Sith enlisted textures which heyorange’s original mod did not edit. This version also removes some edits heyorange made to Sith stats, gear and loot, reverting them to vanilla.

Option #2 is a Community Patch-compatible version of the same above install.

Option #3 is an add-on which includes a reskin of the standard uniform for Sith students on Korriban which also fixes Czerka workers on Korriban so they wear correct uniforms. Do not choose this option if you are using another mod which makes similar changes, such as Korriban: Back in Black!

Option #4 is an add-on for the KOTOR 1 Restoration (or other mods that restore Major Hurka) providing her with a unique uniform.

 

INSTALLATION:

If intending to use the Community Patch-compatible mod version, please ensure the K1CP is installed first before proceeding with this installation.

Select whichever of the two base installs fit your needs (Option #1, or option #2 for K1CP compatibility), run the installer and select the chosen option and hit install. Point the installer to your game’s main directory (where the executable is located) and you’re done!

If you wish to use option #3 or option #4, you will need to re-run the installer and select those options after applying the main install. The rest of the install process is the same.

 

CREDITS:

To Snigaroo: For suggesting this project in the first place and for consistent feedback throughout the project, as well as writing parts of this readme.

To JCarter426: For both setting up the TSLPatcher install to make this mod possible.

To Malkior: For the new bandages on the Major Hurka texture in the K1R folder.

To Fair Strides: For consistent feedback throughout the project.

To Effix: Effix did provide me with some work on textures pre-upscaling at the start of this project but I wound up not using his work.  However, it seemed appropriate to thank them for their help. Thanks, Effix!

 

The following is the read-me from the original mod excluding the installation instructions as this version of the mod will be handled differently in that aspect.

 

FROM THE ORIGINAL MOD:

Heyorange's Sith Uniform Reformation

A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic

Author: Heyorange (aka Pataschka)

Version: 1.0

 

Description:

This mod is a bunch of reskins of the Sith officer uniforms. Different uniforms with different rank insignias were given to different officers throughout the game to give a bit more realistic look.

Aside from that, the uniform of the Admiral Saul Karath was changed and a new reskin for Sith students was added.

 

The Mod is divided into 3 parts:

1. Heyorange's Sith Uniform Reformation - the main part of the mod

2. Sith Students + Czerka on Korriban fix - reskin of the standard Sith uniforms for Korriban Sith students and fix for Czerka workers on Korriban to have correct uniforms

3. K1R fix - A reskin of the Sith uniform for the added wounded officer on the Leviathan by the K1R modification

Game: Knights of the Old Republic 2 (using Trex’s “The Jedi Masters” mod)

Version 1.0 Uploaded: 07 AUG 2025

 

Description:

The Kotor III: The Jedi Masters Texture Reinterpretation mod was designed to upscale and/or enhance the many (oh so many) textures seen in the mod.  

For sake of my sanity, I’ll be abbreviating The Jedi Masters to TJM from here on.

It is an extensive mod pack (as might be indicated by the size) but as seen listed below, it is not a complete overhaul. TJM uses textures from both KotOR1 and TSL.  As there are already two fine upscale packages on Deadly Stream – and they both have liberal use policies – I was able to grab a bunch of upscales that already existed after renaming them to the TJM conventions. (See credits section for the other mods that were sourced.)

Some of the TJM textures required new upscales as many of them are simply recolored vanilla textures and I didn’t want to manually recolor all of the original textures. Additionally, some of the textures in TJM are new or sourced from places outside the vanilla game. I’ve adjusted textures to my liking when I thought it would benefit the texture but I’ve mostly attempted to remain faithful to the – shall we say unique? - visual style of this mod.

New upscales were (generally) set to upscale at 4 times the original size. The exceptions to this scaling are textures that would be larger than 2048 x 2048 if upscaled at 4x.

As TJM is extensive and I didn’t have access to a beta team for this, please report any textures that I may missed an alpha layer for.  I have heard rumbling that they are more than a few in the original TJM mod itself that presented issues in one way or another. Feel free to post pictures of areas over in the Release thread.

In addition to the numerous before and pictures provided on this page, here is a little video showing the end results.

 

 

What’s not included and why:

I have not upscaled the following categories of textures included with TJM.

Trex’s Custom Skyboxes: Many of these are already near the self-imposed 2048 x 2048 limit. In my humble opinion, they would not benefit from upscaling. I have replaced one of Trex’s skyboxes as seen in the outdoor levels of the planet called Etti with a version that uses my own textures rather than uses Trex’s textures (and it’s twice the size). Additionally, I have replaced one of Trex’s Coruscant skybox with one of my own.

Inventory Items and their icons, including clothing and weapons: These fall outside of the scope of my original plans. Others that concentrate work on these type of mods would a better choice than me for this.

Portraits and Character skins: Like the previous, working on character skins isn’t my forte.

Many of the textures from Quanon were not upscaled (as they are close to my self-imposed size limit as they currently stand). When and where Quanon reused vanilla textures, those have been upscaled.

If you are interested in what this mod doesn’t cover, you can always request other folks to work on it in the Mod Requests section on Deadly Stream. I wish you the best of luck with that.

 

Installation:

Drop all TGA and TXI files included in this mod into your Override folder.

 

Credits:

Some ship textures, the Czerka-branded protocol droid texture, and one animated computer panel in this collection were sourced from Dark Hope’s releases. Thanks to DH and his generosity in making permissions open for her mods. See here for a wide selection of his mods.

Many of the TSL textures were sourced from “RESOURCE: Topaz GigaPixel AI Upscales – K2” by Thor110  (https://deadlystream.com/topic/9592-resourcetopaz-gigapixel-ai-upscales-k2/). I give my thanks for this convenient modding resource.

Many of the KOTOR1 textures that TJM uses, I sourced upscales from what was originally called “KOTOR 1 Four Times ver 1.0” on Deadly Stream.  It doesn’t appear to be on Deadly Stream now but I have found a version of that mod. It was uploaded to NexusMods as “KOTOR HD Galaxy Mod” - uploaded by SimplyCool988.  Thanks to whoever the original unnamed author was for their open permissions, as listed in the read-me file.

Thanks to Sithspecter for permission to use portions of his example pictures from his High Quality Blasters mod page. (https://deadlystream.com/files/file/861-high-quality-blasters/)

Thanks to Lewok for beta testing these textures, adjusting some TXIs and an alpha layer of some textures on the D’Arth Syyth flagship, providing valuable input, and helping troubleshoot problematic textures.

Thanks to Fair Strides for texture feedback and moral support.

[K1] Logan Starr - PC Replacement Soundset

 

AUTHOR: Sith Holocron

ORIGINAL RELEASE: 14 JUN 2025

GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1. [This mod will not work in Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2. See Description for more details.]

 

 

I asked Kevin Smets to record all of the lines that the PC says.  All of the lines are listed below.

Those in the know may notice that some of these lines are likely to trigger in the game – those with file names ending in 4.  There’s a reason for that!  In order to spice repeated playthroughs, I figured giving you extra lines which you can rename might be something you may be interested in. In the category the replacement lines are, delete the line you’d like to replace using the list below. Then rename the line with the “4” in it (or the other alternate numbered lines) to whatever you deleted. The categories that have the extra lines are:

• ·         Critical hit achieved.
• ·         Player has just received medical attention.
• ·         Player has been poisoned.
• ·         The party is regrouping. [options 4 or 5]
• ·         The player character has been selected via the menu. [option 9]
• ·         Stealth mode activated.
• ·         The weapon used by player character is either broken or inefficient against an enemy in current attack.

 

This mod is only for Knights of the Old Republic 1.  Knights of the Old Republic 2 - although it has the voice files for the male and female PC - the game doesn't have them activated, rendering the Exile mute. If you wish you attempt to perform a work around, that is your own responsibility and not my own.  Feel free to make your suggestions on a work around below if you find a suitable one.

List of lines included with this mod:

File name                                                        Male

p_plyermw_rprty4                                         The gang’s back together!

p_plyermw_rprty5                                         Hey, it’s me! [laughs]                       

 

The player character has been selected via the menu.

p_plyermw_slct1                                            Yeah?

p_plyermw_tia1                                              It’s not doing anything.

p_plyermw_tia3                                              I need a better weapon.       

p_plyermw_tia4                                              This weapon isn’t doing anything.

 

Installation:

You'll not be dropping these into your Override folder like my usual mods.  This time you have new steps to follow.

1) Now that you’ve made your choices above, move the original KotOR1 files that come with the game to a place you can find them.  (I personally recommend making a folder on your desktop to put them but you do you!)  Those files will be located in the "Streamsounds" folder. 

2) Extract the files from the 7z folder. Grab the new files from that extracted folder and put them in Streamsounds folder.

3) When you're done with the beta, you can delete my files from the Streamsounds folder and put the original files back in there.

 

Note: If you're using the mod on Steam, this quote may prove helpful.

“I threw the files in Streamsound. I managed to fix it by verifying game files through steam and reinstalling the mod though!”

 

Uninstall:

Remove my files from the Streamsounds folder. Put the original files that you saved elsewhere back in the Streamsounds folder.

Special Thanks:

Kevin Smets: For recording the lines so his fans can play as his character!  You have seen his movies, right?  Here’s a trailer from Convergence / a link to Convergence, the latest machinima featuring Logan Starr. 

For the movie poster artwork used in the mod’s pictures, I thank Burning Earth Chris!

The beta testers:

Thanks to Untold Prophecy for beta testing this mod.  Having an unbiased beta tester to check this on the PC version game was both helpful and vital.

Thanks to Malkior for beta testing this on Steam. As I didn’t have a copy of KotOR1 on Steam at the time of creation of this mod, this assistance was vital!

Both of the beta testers provided feedback particularly on sound levels which helped finalize this project.  (Even if they were kept in the dark on who the person voicing the soundset was!)
