Sith Holocron

It had to be updated eventually . . .
 
Here's my first very small mod. Updated. Yet again.
 
AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 13 SEP 2012
UPDATED RELEASE: 24 DEC 2012
CATHALAN RELEASE: 28 MAR 2016
COMBINED RELEASE: 08 APR 2016
 
GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords
 
Description:
============
 
The Galaxy Map texture of the Ebon Hawk was originally sized at 128x128. The texture is now sized to 512x512. In addition to the resolution bump, the actual texture is now animated. As the texture file is named the same in both KotOR games, the mod should be usable in both games.
 
However: I don't suggest using this with Knights of the Old Republic 1, if seeing planets only seen in Knights of the Old Republic 2 causes any measure of distress. (Use the KOTOR version instead found here. (http://deadlystream.com/forum/files/file/724-kotor1-animated-galaxy-map/)
 
There are now FOUR different versions that you can use!
 
Version 1: The original planets as laid out in the original un-modded game but animated and at higher resolution.
 
Version 2: In addition to the original planets, I've added Coruscant and M4-78 to the map.
 
Version 3: Mostly like Version 2 but with Cathalan added to the planet roster.
 
Version 4: This is the "April Fool's Version" of the Galaxy Map as described in this post. (http://deadlystream.com/forum/topic/4304-april-fools-an-exciting-mod-to-appear-on-deadly-stream-soon/?do=findComment&comment=44585)
 

Condensed Description for Version 4 as follows:
===============================================
 
April Fools!
 
I still think the orange people in the Cathalan mod are ridiculous. My mockery for the Cathalan mod is on full display in this Galaxy Map. (See the News announcement for April 1st, 2016 for screenshots.)
 
Though [Version 4] is meant for Knights of the Old Republic 2 - as Cathalan was an awful mod made for K2 - this mod can and will work in KotOR1 if the installation instructions below are followed.
 

Installation:
=============
 
First, choose which of the four versions you want to use.
 
For Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2 - Extract the "LEH_scre03.tga" and the "LEH_scre03.txi" files into the SWKotOR2/Override folder.
 
For Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 - Extract the "LEH_scre03.tga" and the "LEH_scre03.txi" files into the Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic/Override folder.
 

Uninstallation:
===============
 
Take them out again.
 

Known Bugs:

None known at this time.

Replacement Texture for Lightning on Malachor V 1.2
READ ME FIRST!
 
Here's my third small mod.
 
Replacement Texture for Lightning on Malachor V
========================================
 
MOD AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 14 MAR 2013
UPDATED RELEASE: 29 FEB 2016
 
GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords
 

Description:
------------
Did the low resolution lighting ever irritate you when walking along Malachor V's surface? Me too!
Once again, I've decided to do something about it.
The new texture uses captures from a real lighting strike.
Constructive criticism is welcome.
 
About The Update:
-------------------------
When the mod was originally released, Darth Sapiens requested a version that has a flare on the cloud the lightning would be emanating from. I made him a version like that as a thank you for his helping the original version. I think it should be available to everyone – so now’s your turn to try it out.
 

Installation:
---------------
 
There are two versions of the lightning now: the original version and the publicly-unreleased-until-now “flare” version. Both versions have their own folder. Choose your version's folder and put the 2 files inside it into your Override folder. The "Original" version has a choice of DDS or TGA. In that particular case, choose either one you wish.
 

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

Known Bugs:
-----------------
 
None known at this time.
 

Thank You Section:
-------------------------
Zbyl2: For the original testing of this mod.
Darth_Sapiens: For creating an alpha channel that made the black background transparent.
Kexikus: For pointing out transparency issues in the "Original Version"
Darth Parametric: For adding in the missing alpha for the "Original Version", correcting dimensions to power of 4 (2048x2048), and including a DDS version for optimal compression!

Here's my fourth small mod – now updated!
 
Citadel Station Signage
==================
 
MOD AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 28 APR 2013
UPDATED RELASE: 05 MAY 2013
 
FOR WHAT GAME: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords
NOTE: This is the old deprecated version.  Go here instead for the updated version!
Description:
----------------
This small mod collection replaces textures around many places in the Telos Citadel Station – in this case, the various signage seen around the station.
One sign in particular seemed very rushed to me – the pink cantina sign with the animated Twi’lek. (File name: TEL_BBrds2.tga) I’ve redone the sign – using the original colors so everything matches. Of course once I started, I knew I had to continue. All textures have been doubled in size and have had the Aurebesh font reapplied. I think the resulting appearance is now crisper. Feel free to draw your own conclusions. (By the way, all the text on these signs can be translated into English. I may very well make a thread explaining what the signs actually say.)
Update:
----------
My previous mod collection “Citadel Station Signage” left out a texture for what I’ve taken to calling the “departure board.” There are two versions of this animated “board” now in this package. One is for the boards as seen in various places around Citadel Station. I’ve noticed them in the following places: the shuttle areas in the Entertainment module, in the departure area in the Dock Module, and in the mainframe room in Czerka. (They may also be elsewhere.)
 
The other texture –with the same name – was originally meant to be used with M4-78. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to make it work with the M4-78 versions of these screens. However, seeing as I already made the texture anyway, why not
offer the “dark side” version of my standard screen to you? I suppose it could be used for the invasion of Citadel Station portions if you wanted to take the time to put it in.
 
Constructive criticism is welcome.
 
Installation:
----------------
For Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2 - Extract the TGA files and the TXI file into the Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic/Override folder.
 
To Uninstall:
----------------
Take them out again.

Here's my fifth small mod!
 
Remove the Menu Beeps from KotOR and TSL
=================================
 
MOD AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 11 MAY 2013
 
FOR WHICH GAMES: For both Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic & Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords
 
Description:
----------------
When using the various menu functions in either KotOR game, there are many annoying beeps. This extremely simple mod removes those by replace them with a blank sound file. Though this will probably have limited usage for the general public, it is invaluable for those creating “machinima” videos from either of the game.
 
Installation:
----------------
Drop WAV files in your game's’ Override folder
 
To Uninstall:
----------------
Take them out again.
 
Known Bugs:

Here's my sixth small mod

Peragus Large Monitor Adjustment (version 1.1)


MOD AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 23 JUN 2013
UPDATED RELEASE: 11 MAR 2023
FOR WHAT GAME: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords

Description:

Don’t expect this to be as interesting as the Telos Signage mod that I came up with. (LOL)
 
This small mod collection replaces textures for the large monitor seen on Peragus that overlooks the asteroid field. I wasn’t crazy about the low resolution images in the smaller boxes off to the side so I decided to take a crack at it. I’ve kept to general idea of what were originally shown in those boxes so this difference won’t be too drastic. In addition, that old low resolution asteroid animation just had to go. It has been replaced as well. Finally, that scrolling text box can now be read. Since the original text box was illegible, I decided to make my own. A separate translation Word document is included in case you’re wondering what it says. (I’d appreciate it if you all let folks read it for themselves so please don’t post the translation in reviews.)
 
As always, constructive criticism is welcome.  Reviews are appreciated, even if it’s only a like. 

Installation:

For Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2 - Extract the TGA files and the TXI file into the SWKotOR2/Override folder if not using the KotOR Reddit Mod Builds.
 
If you are using the KotOR Reddit Mod Builds, you should instead use the textures in found in the Alternate Textures subfolder. If you find that the portion on the PER_Tk02.tga texture too distracting because it uses a modified version of the Sol System, this is the clear choice for you. A new loading screen using the altered texture has been included for your convenience. (The loading screen using the original texture is already included in my Loading Screen mods.)

To Uninstall:

Take them out again.

Known Bugs:

None known at this time.
 
Special Thanks:
 
To Darth_Sapiens: for Assistance with alpha channels for some of the textures and testing.
To Canderis: For pre-release reviews (of the original 1.0 version).
To Snigaroo: For suggestions on the alternate texture
To ConansHair: For reading the “monitor scan lines” to the new Loading Screen variant

And here's the new variant loading screen . . .

Recently, I was inspired by a desktop wallpaper that I saw posted up at LucasForums. It was created by a LF member named Trench.
 

 
I was quite taken with it so I asked Trench if he could render the planet on a transparent background so I could release it as a mod - which he was happy to do.
 
Through the efforts of Darth_Sapiens and Quanon, I discovered the location of the other appearance of this planet in the game files. You see, one texture (named PER_Plnt01) only shows the exposed core planet inside the administration level.
 

 
The other texture - EBO_Per - shows up both when you're on the walkway outside the station. (See below)
 
Trench's texture came with some extra asteroids so I'm providing two versions of Peragus II . . .
 
Original
 

 
and
 
With Extra Asteroids
 

 
As an added bonus, I've included a interior screen replacement for my own previously released mod that utilizes Trench's version of Peragus II. If you use that mod, I suggest using this bonus texture as an upgrade.
 

 
Installation:
-------------------
Extract the TGA files you wish into the Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2/Override folder. You can only choose one variety to use at a time, of course.
 
Uninstall:
----------------
Take the textures out again.

HQ Movies Update Patch
 
Here we have a fairly massive patch that comes in 6 parts. What this patch does is make all your kotor2 pre-rendered cut scenes a slightly higher quality. So no more squinting at the screen trying to make out details - or at least a little less squinting.
 
Warning:
These movies weren't re-shot in high-res; they were just up-scaled to 1600x1200, which is why they they won't be leaps and bounds over what you already have.
 
Steam and GOG KOTOR2 Users:
This patch is already included in Steam and GOG versions of the game. Do not install this with Steam and GOG versions.
 
Installation:
Install this patch before you install TSLRCM. TSLRCM has a few movie fixes that will override some of the movies in this patch and that is completely intended.
 
NOTE: You must have at least 2 Gigs of free Hard Drive space to run this patch.
 
- Copy the K2_HQ_PATCH_Movies executable into the root game directory
(default C:\Program Files\LucasArts\SWKotOR2)
- Double-click on the K2_HQ_PATCH\Movies executable to run the program.
- Wait while the files copy to the game folder. When the window disappears, you're done!
 
Uninstall:
There is no uninstall method. Reinstall the game if for some reason you don't wish to use this patch.
 
Legalese:
This asset patch is supplied for use AS IS and is not officially supported by LucasArts or Obsidian Entertainment. LucasArts and Obsidian Entertainment will not offer customer support in the installation or application of these assets and are not responsible for any problems which may arise from their use. Although we have tested these assets, they are offered AS IS. Use this patch AT YOUR OWN RISK

HQ Music Update Patch
 
Just like the Movie patches, here is a Music Patch to enhance the original game's assets. This patch will make the regular game music into slightly higher quality music (approximately 22,050 Hz files.)
 
Warning:
These files won't be CD quality versions of the music but it is better than what came with the original 4 CD version of the game.
 
Steam and GOG KOTOR2 Users:
This patch is already included in Steam and GOG versions of the game. Do not install this with Steam and GOG versions.
 
Installation:
Install this patch before you install TSLRCM.

Here's a small mod that sprung from someone else's hard work!
 
Refurbished Astromech Droids
================================
 
MOD AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 25 DEC 2016
UPDATED RELEASE: 31 JUL 2017
 
GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1
 
Description:
-------------------
I asked Darth_Sapiens some time ago if he planned to redo the astromech droids for the KOTOR games - as he did such a wonderful job in his T3M4 HD 2k (http://deadlystream.com/forum/files/file/514-darth-sapiens-presents-t3m4-hd-2k/) mod. He didn't wind up doing it so I wound up recoloring his texture to retexture the other astromech droids myself.
 
As 3C-FD - the droid that assists T3-M4 in the prologue - uses one of these textures, I've also included an avatar picture for 3C-FD in this package as well.
 
Installation:
--------------------
For Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2 - Extract all files into the Star Wars Knights of the Old RepublicII/Override folder. It is highly recommended to also install Darth Sapiens' T3M4 HD 2k as this mod doesn't touch T3-M4. This is not required however. If you already have Darth_Sapiens' T3M4 HD 2k mod, please note the "CM_Tseriesdroid.txi" file and the "CM_Tseriesdroid.tga" file are included in both his and this derivative mod. (As the files are identical, you can allow the newer files to override the old ones.)
By the way, you can use this in Knights of the Old Republic 1 as well.  The texture's appearance and the files names are identical in both games so you shouldn't have any issue.
 
Uninstall:
---------------
Take it out again.
If you are using still using Darth_Sapiens' T3M4 HD 2k mod and wish to continue to do so, please leave the "CM_Tseriesdroid.txi" file and the "CM_Tseriesdroid.tga" file in the Override folder.
 
Known Bugs:
---------------------
None known at this time.
 
Credits:
-------------
This mod would not have been possible with Darth_Sapiens' mod.
Thanks to Fair Strides for adding an alpha channel to these - and while I was on vacation no less!
If you like it, credit goes to those fine fellows. If you hate it, I'll shoulder that blame.
 
Additional Thanks:
-------------------------------
 
Thanks to Revanator and Malkior for taking a look at this. Much appreciated.

KOTOR2 (TSL) Animated Galaxy Map Texture in Canon Positions 1.2
=====================================================================
AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
FIRST RELEASE: 19 FEB 2017
UPDATED RELEASE: 02 JUN 2020
CURRENT RELEASE: 25 JUL 2024
GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II
Description:
------------
The Galaxy Map texture of the Ebon Hawk was originally sized at 128x128. It is now sized to 512x512. In addition to the resolution bump, the actual texture is now animated.
As the texture tile is named the same in both KotOR games, the mod is usable in both games.

So . . . what’s different?  The planets are now in the positions as laid out in Bead-V’s TSL Galaxy Map Fix .
Though this mod is meant for Knights of the Old Republic 1, it can and will work in KotOR2 if the installation instructions below are followed.
Note: The LEH_scre03 texture is the Galaxy Map *before* you click on it, that is when you can see the rest of the cockpit.
This mod is not recommended for use in KotOR2, as it refers to places not seen in the game. A version for KOTOR1 using the “canon” positions for the planets is available here.  

There are FOUR different versions of the Galaxy Map texture that you can use!
 Version 1: The original planets as laid out in the original un-modded game.
Version 2: In addition to the original planets, I've added M4-78 to the map.
Version 3: In addition to the original planets, I've added M4-78 and Coruscant to the map.
Version 4: This is the "April Fool's Version" of the Galaxy Map as described in this post. (http://deadlystream....oon/#entry44585) : It includes all original planets, M4-78, Coruscant, and Cathalan.
Unlike the GIF shown on that post, it doesn't have the "Don't Travel" animation as part of the map.
Here's a video that shows the textures in the game.
Thanks to @Mellowtron11 for providing the game save so I could get this video done relatively quickly!
 
Installation:
-------------
Choose the version that bests suits your uses.  Grab both TGA and TXI files from that file folder and drop them into the following folder:
SWKotOR2/Override
 
Uninstallation:

Take them out again.

AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 01 APR 2019
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.]
 
Description:
If you’ve played Half Life 1 or 2, perhaps you might have considered making your character sound like Gordon Freeman.  With this mod for KotOR1, now you can!
Installation:
You'll not be dropping these into your Override 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 recommend a folder on your desktop 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.

Here's a mod that sprung from other people's hard work!
 
NPC PORTRAITS FOR TSL
======================
 
MOD AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 13 MAY 2017
UPDATED RELEASE: 20 MAY 2017
UPDATED RELEASE 2: 06 JUN 2017
UPDATED RELEASE 3: 10 JUN 2017
 
GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords
 
Notes:
--------
This mod is not recommended for Knights of the Old Republic 1 for what should be obvious reasons.
This mod is not recommended for first time players of Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords - spoilers!
This is mod will overwrite portraits of the NPC characters that may be provided by other mods. Keep this in mind when installing this mod.
 
Background:
------------------
I had this idea of asking folks to get high quality captures of the NPCs in 3DS MAX using poses similar to the ones in the traditional NPC portraits. I would then put a detailed background that indicated where we first met those characters. The ones I originally were thinking of doing were our standard folks: Atton, Kreia, Bao-Dur, Mira, Canderous, Visas, Handmaiden, Disicple, T3-M4, HK-47, and G0-T0. (You may notice some missing ones - more on that later.)
 
I then proceeded to ask around for folks willing to grab some of these for me. The first willing helper was HairlessWookiee (on Reddit) and he helped out with the first batch of characters you've seen on my blog. However, I hesitated on asking HairlessWookiee for the rest as I didn't want to be more of a pain in the ass than I already was. (I excel at that, I've heard around here.) I eventually asked Quanon and he's helped me out getting the remaining characters I needed.
 
So who was I missing from that list above?
 
Namely: Remote (who gets used during the Malachor V end game), 3C-FD (from the Prologue), and B-4D4 (from the Czerka infiltration mission on Citadel Station.) I managed to get all of these too, again thanks to Quanon!
 
Description:
-----------------
 
Here is my explanation of why I chose these backgrounds. You can skip this part of the read-me if you like but I'm putting this in here so I don't have to have lengthy, boring discussions of why I placed who in front of where. If I completely ignore you if you bring this up in the review thread, now you know why.
 
Atton - Atton's background is in the cockpit of the Ebon Hawk. You haven't met him here but he spends most of his time in there so it made sense. Plus I have animations I could exploit in there.
 
Kreia - Yes, the Exile does meet her on Peragus but she doesn't reveal her true nature to you until Malachor V so that's why she's placed with the Trayus Core as the background.
 
Bao-Dur - You meet him on the surface of Telos so that's his background.
 
Mandalore - You meet him on Dxun so that's his background.
 
Disciple - You meet him in the Ruined Enclave on Dantooine so that's his background.
 
Handmaiden - You meet her at the Polar Plateau on Telos so the topside of that plateau is her background.
 
Visas - You first see her on the Ravager. As that's her centering space, she gets that as a background.
 
T3-M4 - The Exile meets "him" at Peragus so that's his background. Yes, "he's" met the Exile on the Ebon Hawk but the Exile was unconscious then so I'm not counting that.
 
Hanharr/Mira - You meet them on Nar Shaddaa so that's their background.
 
HK-47 - I wanted something vibrant for "his" background to suit his volatile nature and it was suggested to use the room that the Mandalorians first burst into on the Ravager. (The flames work well with "him", I think)
 
Remote - You only use "him" on Malachor V so that's why "he" uses that planet as "his" background.
 
Animations for Portraits?
----------------------------------
 
The droids, Hanharr, and Mandalore have animated backgrounds for their portraits - as their portraits do not change with LS and DS alterations throughout the game.
 
The Kreia portrait does not animate. She's an unreliable narrator and so is her portrait. That . . . and I got lazy near the end. Sue me. (On second thought, don't sue me.)
 
As an aside, are you curious about Atris' portrait? You'll have to wait for Reztea's Recruit Atris mod to be released as I've given it to him.
 
Installation:
----------------
With the exception of the Atton, Bao-Dur, Disciple, Mandalore, T3-M4, and HK-47 folders, just grab all of of the TGA and TXI files, and then drop them into your Override folder.
 
The HK-47 folders have three different versions of HK-47's portraits - the standard model with vanilla skin, the standard model with Quanon's skin, and the SWTOR model created by DarthParametric using Kainzorus Prime's skin.
 
The T3-M4 folders have two different versions of HK-47's portraits - one portrait utilizing Dath_Sapien's skin, the other portrait using Quanon's skin.
 
The Mandalore folders have two different versions of Mandalore's portraits - the model utilizing Darth_Sapiens' texture and a version of Mandalore without his helmet.
 
The Atton folders contain three different versions of his portraits - the original version included in this mod, a vanilla version where Atton turns his head towards the player as he becomes more dark sided, the model utilizing felixfelicitas' "Atton with Scruff" texture.
 
The Bao-Dur folders contain three different versions of Mandalore's portraits - the original version included in this mod, a vanilla version where Atton turns his head towards the player as he becomes more dark sided, the model utilizing Nimduril's "Bao-Dur/Darth Maul" texture where Atton turns his head towards the player as he becomes more dark sided.
 
Look at the pictures below to see which portrait type you wish to use. Copy the contents of that folder to your Override folder.
 
Update as of 14 JUN 2020: There's a new version of the Disciple portrait available.  Instead of de-saturating the Jedi Library behind him, I've turned the colors of the Jedi Library to different colors: purple for mid Dark Side, and Red for fully dark side.


 
If you prefer the original versions, I've kept those as a part of the package as well.  See the What's New section for more information.
 
Note the files that you put into your Override folder.
 
Uninstall:
--------------
Remove the files that you copied (and noted) from the Override folder.
 
Very Special Thanks:
-----------------------------
 
HairlessWookiee - For several of the model pictures.
Quanon - For several of the model pictures, his Malachor V texture mod used for Remote's background, and his skins for T3-M4 and HK-47.

Kainzorus Prime - For the skin for DP's model.
felixfelicitas - For his "Atton with Scruff" mod.

bead-V - Additional beta-testing / Input
superSzym - Additional beta-testing / Input
gerblul - Made me work! (If not for him, I'd have missed the problem with Remote's TXI)
 
Enjoy!

CZERKA SIGN AND DESK ENHANCEMENT (version 1.2)
==============================================

MOD AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 13 MAY 2017
UPDATED RELEASE 1.1: 25 MAR 2017 (added desk and loading screen)
UPDATED RELEASE 1.2: 16 OCT 2018 (adds new version of desk and removes the loading screen)
 
GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords.

Description:

This texture replaces all instances of the low resolution Czerka sign seen in the game. In addition, the desk seen in the Czerka office (and many other places throughout the game) has been cleaned up and even has an animated screen!

Notes:

A small update: I've made some minor updates to the green buttons on the desk texture.  If you'd rather use the original ones instead, they are still available in the package. (See Installation instructions.)
The loading screen has been removed from the package as it's now included in my "Replacement Loading Screens for KotOR2: Original Pack (with or without TSLRCM) - Part 1" mod.  Why have multiple identical versions. right?  
 
Installation:

If using TSL: Choose whether you wish to use the original or new versions of the textures.  Grab all files from one of those folders and put them in your Override folder. 
If using KotOR1: Choose whether you wish to use the original or new versions of the textures.  Grab all files from one of those folders and put them in your Override folder. 
 
Uninstall:

Remove the textures from the Override folder.

Special Thanks:

To JCarter426 for his wonderful Loadscreen Template for K2 (1.1) - which enabled me to include this loadscreen for you all. Even though I now have removed the loading screen from this mod package, he still deserves the credit.

Here's another mod that sprung from other people's hard work.

NPC PORTRAITS FOR KOTOR 1
===========================

MOD AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE DATE: 03 JUN 2017
UPDATED RELEASE DATE: 23 JUN 2017

GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic

Notes:
------

This mod is not recommended for Knights of the Old Republic 2 for what should be obvious reasons.
This mod is not recommended for first time players of Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic - spoilers!
This mod will overwrite portraits of the NPC characters that may be provided by other mods. Keep this in mind when installing this mod.

Background:
------------------

I had this idea of asking folks to get high quality captures of the NPCs in 3DS MAX using poses similar to the ones in the traditional NPC portraits. I would then put a detailed background that indicated where we first met those characters.

I then proceeded to ask around for folks willing to grab some of these for me. Thus the NPC PORTRAITS FOR TSL mod was born. This new mod - like the previous mod - redoes the portraits but this time, it's for the original KotOR.

As none of the portraits in KotOR shift from LS to DS - or vice versa - they ALL now have animations in the backgrounds.

I have NO plans to do other characters from mods such "Kay" from Recruitable Kay or "Shadow" from Brotherhood of Shadow. It's just the standard NPCs here. I'd love to see someone else tackle those characters though!

Description:
-----------------

Here is my explanation of why I chose these backgrounds. You can skip this part of the read-me if you like but I'm putting this in here so I don't have to have lengthy, boring discussions of why I placed who in front of where. (If I completely ignore you if you bring this up in the review thread, now you know why.)

Carth - You first meet Carth on the Endar Spire so that's where I stuck him. I was considering using the Taris Hideout but that seemed to be a boring location.

Bastila - Yeah, you meet her on Taris but as she's a Jedi, I decided to put her on Dantooine. Trust me, you don't want so many of the characters with drab Taris backgrounds.

Canderous - You meet him on Taris in one of the nightclubs but it seemed to be a bit boring for a background. So I moved the action to Davik's Hangar, during Malak's bombardment.

T3-M4 - The player meets "him" in Janice Nall's shop on Taris so that's "his" background.

Mission - You first meet her in the Javyar's Cantina on Taris so that's her background.

Zalbaar - I didn't want to reuse the same area for Big Z that Mission had, so I changed his background to Rwookrrorro Village on Kashyyyk.

Jolee - I wanted Manaan to be in here somewhere and seeing as his friend is on trial, I picked that planet as his background.

Juhani - She has the Dantooine Grove as her background as that's where you first meet her.

HK-47 - You meet "him" in Yuka Laka's Droid Shop on Tatooine so that's "his" background.

Trask - You didn't think I'd forget Trask, did you? He's only in one location - the Endar Spire - so that's where you'll see him in front of.



Installation:
----------------

Read this portion carefully.

For Trask, Carth Onasi, and Jolee skins: just grab all of of the TGA and TXI files, and then drop them into your Override folder.

The T3-M4 folders have TWO different versions of HK-47's portraits - one portrait utilizing Darth_Sapien's skin, the other portrait using Quanon's skin.

The Canderous folders have TWO different versions of his portraits - the model utilizing the original texture and a version using the texture created by Quanon.

The HK-47 folders have THREE different versions of HK-47's portraits - the standard model with vanilla skin, the standard model with Quanon's skin, and the SWTOR model created by DarthParametric using Kainzorus Prime's skin.

For Zaalbar: There are THREE different textures to choose from - the original, one created by Quanon, and one created by Corpsecotillion.

For Mission: There are THREE different versions: the original game skin, a version by Dark Hope, and a version by Quanon.

For Bastila: There are FOUR different versions: 2 versions by Quanon, a version by Dark Hope and Quanon, and the original game skin.

For Juhani: There are TEN different textures to choose from. 7 Variants from "Juhani Catlike Head Mod", Shem's "Juhani New Look" Skin, Miro42's "Juhani Real Cathar Head", and her original skin.

Look at the pictures in the release thread to determine which portrait type you wish to use. Copy the contents of that folder to your Override folder.

Note the files that you put into your Override folder.

Uninstall:
-------------

Remove the files that you copied (and noted) from the Override folder.

Very Special Thanks:
----------------------------

Quanon - For all of the head and body renders. Many of his skins were utilized as well; including Carth, Jolee, T3-M4, Mission, Zaalbar, and HK-47.

Dark Hope (previously known as Cache71) - For her Mission Vao skin and for her work with Quanon on the their Bastila skin.
Darth_Sapiens - For his HD T3-M4 skin.
Darth Parametric - For his SWTOR HK model.
Kainzorus Prime - For the skin for DP's model.
Corpsecotillion - For his Zaalbar skin.

djh269 - Beta-testing and for read-me proof-reading.

If you have any issues with my mod, take it up with me and not with these fine contributors. (You can - of course - compliment them on their time, work, and graciousness.)

Enjoy!

MOD AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 28 MAY 2023

FOR WHAT GAME: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords

3) Place the folders in my mod package that have the same names in step 2, into the AVO folder

MOD AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 14 DEC 2021
UPDATED RELEASE: 20 DEC 2021
GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1
 
Description:
In before the inevitable request…
As I just put up a TSL logo texture mod up yesterday, here’s one for the original KOTOR. This is my attempt to bring the logo in line with modern standards. This texture is sized at 2048 by 2048 (yes, you read that correctly) so it should definitely be slightly crisper than the original. The original texture was sized at 256 by 256.
Someone that shall remain nameless was inquiring about using my mod so they could extend the middle bar out to the end like the original menu logo did.  I have done this.  Additionally, the coloring on this “long bar” version was slightly de-saturated to more in mine with the original in-game logo.
For those not keeping up . . .
Short Bar Version: That’s the logo that you’ll see on the box art, the game discs, and the Prima Guide Book
Long Bar Version: A variant version of the logo where the bar that contains “Of The” stretches to the end letters rather being nestled in the center between the large “K” and large “S”
A reminder: this whole upload was originally a gag just so I could avoid taking a request in the future.  Looks like the joke’s on me.
 
Before modding (actual size):

After (actual size of Short Bar version):

After (actual size of Long Bar version):

 
If you find the difference to be pleasing, please let me know in the comments.
 
Installation:
With more options, there inevitably comes a longer instruction section.
First, choose which version you’ll be going with: Short Bar or Long Bar.  That’s where you’ll be grabbing textures from.
If you’re using an original version of KOTOR – that is you’re not using a widescreen mod (such as or UniWS, Flawless Widescreen, or Aspyr's natively widescreen version) – then you’ll want to place the “logo_sw_02.tga” file from the “Standard (Vanilla) Resolutions” sub folder from either the “Short Bar” folder or the “Long Bar folder”
If you’re using KOTOR with either UniWS, Flawless Widescreen, or Aspyr's natively widescreen version) – then you’ll want to place the “logo_sw_02.tga” file from the “For those using Widescreen fixes” sub folder from either the “Short Bar” folder or the “Long Bar” folder.
 

 

 
Uninstallation:
Remove the TGA file from your Override folder.  Delete it.
 
Known Bugs:
None known at this time.

More Subtle Animated Ebon Hawk Monitors (still not including Galaxy Map)  (version 1.2)
===============================================================================
ORIGINAL RELEASE: 25 MAR 2017
UPDATED RELEASE: 31 MAR 2017
LATEST RELEASE: 03 NOV 2018
NOTE: The definitive version of this mod can be found here! This is the old version...
GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 & 2
Description:
============
When Xarwarz was working on a sample of a monitor texture for the Ebon Hawk, I had suggested to him that it could use a bit of animation to liven it up. The led to the original animated monitor mod called "KOTOR2 Animated Ebon Hawk Monitors (not including Galaxy Map)".
The screen in this separate version are much closer to the original screens included with the game. They are still animated though. (See animated picture below.) I have updated the fourth screen with a new picture - using one of the screens usually seen on the bridge of the Harbinger but recolored to the Ebon Hawk monitor color scheme. (Besides the old version of that section was static before and something about that irked me.)


Recently, Dark Hope has recently Animated Ebon Hawk's Screen HD, which adjusts many of the other panels seen in the cockpit and throughout the Ebon Hawk.  With permission granted to me to adjust the credit, I decided to bring to the monitors in her textures in line with my other monitors.

(Size reduced for screenshot purposes.  Texture is sized at it's original 2048 x 2048.)

Though I've placed this in the Knights of the Old Republic 2 section, this mod is compatible with both games.
 
Installation:
===========
Decide whether you want the monitors to have glass-like overlay or not and copy the TGA files and the TXI files from the appropriate folder. Place those files in the Override folder.
 
Uninstall:
===============

Take them out again.
 
Known Bugs:
===========

None known at this time.

Xarwarz: For putting together the original texture of the monitors surrounding the galaxy map!
 
@Dark Hope: For her original cockpit texture, for releasing her version to Deadly Stream, allowing me to adjust it as I see fit, and to include it in this package.
 
@ebmar: For adjusting Dark Hope's new texture by adding a little depth to it and adding the overlay over the monitors shown in the “With Glass Overlays” folder.
 
Here's what it looks like in the actual game.
Thanks to @Mellowtron11 for providing the game save so I could get this video done relatively quickly!
BTW: Looking for something a little more vibrant?  Check this mod for an alternate look.

Description:
------------------
 
Were you ever dissatisfied with the low-resolution loading screens when the in-game footage looks so much better? What if there was a mod that took care of that for you? Psssst…it’s this mod!
 
This version of the mod covers the loading screens for the following mods: Azgath N'Dul's Tomb, Coruscant Jedi Temple, Curse of the Sith, Korriban Expansion, and the M4-78 Enhancement Project.   If you’re looking for the loading screens that cover the areas in the normal “vanilla” game and the areas added by TSLRCM, seek out the “Replacement Loading Screens for KotOR2: Original Pack” which is also available on Deadly Stream. The texture size is 2048 by 2048 so you'll have a large sized picture for each.

Installation:
----------------
 
Drop the TGA files and loadscreen.2da into your Override folder. As M4-78 Enhancement Project includes its own TGA files, you’ll have to allow my TGAs to overwrite the TGAs already there in the Override folder.
 
Uninstall:
-------------
 
If for any reason, you don’t like one (or more) of the loading screens, consult the list above so you can determine which TGA file/s you will need to remove from your Override folder.
 
To completely remove the loading screens, delete all the above listed TGA files.
 
Recommendations for Coruscant TGA’s:
----------------------------------------------------------
 
This section won’t tell you how to install Coruscant Jedi Temple, or how fix compatibility issues with other mods. However, if you use the Jedi Temple Expansion (3.0) mod by HK-42, please install his mod first - before you put the relevant Coruscant TGAs from my mod in the Override. Allow the following files to overwrite the pre-existing ones: load_952cor.tga, load_953cor.tga, and load_954cor.tga.

Special Thanks:

@ndix UR for his wonderful Loading Screen Template which enabled me to offer these loading screens in a format resembling the original loading screens for you all.
 
Thanks to @DarthParametric, @JCarter426, @N-DReW25, and @Marius Fett for their input and technical expertise. If you want to have your War Droid utilize the textures from Sithspecter's High Quality blasters, be sure to use the fix for the model created by @DarthParametric which you can find here.
Thanks to @timurD2003 for testing the 23MAR2019 update to this mod.
 
And thanks to YOU for giving this mod a chance! Won’t you leave feedback on the download page? (I'd like to see what I’ve done right, you see. That's not too needy, right?)
Note:

Video Preview:

If you'd like a preview of all of the loading screens, check out this video below. It does show the screens without the filter and the black bars but it give you an idea what you'll be working with before you download. I recommend watching the video maximized.
