  1. [K1] SWTOR Vette - PC Replacement Soundset

    AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
    ORIGINAL RELEASE: 27 JAN 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:
    Now your (female) character in KotOR1 can sound like the character “Vette” from SWTOR. 
    Vette is the first companion you acquire as the Sith Warrior in SWTOR.  If the character sounds just like Mission from KotOR and acts like her too, that might be because they’re voiced by the same voice actress!  This fact enabled me to use lines from both KotOR and SWTOR.  Seeing that someone has been ruthlessly insisting on multiple hues of Twi’leks recently, I figured I’d head that request off before it came up.
    Hopefully, I've found suitable lines for the PC various scenarios.  You'll have to let me know in the review section below.  (Details are better than just leaving stars, you see.)  Feel free to link videos of the lines in use if you wish to put them in your review. 
     
    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 - that game doesn't have them activated, rendering the Exile mute. In order to use this mod in Knights of the Old Republic 2, you must install JC's Player Soundset Restoration for K2 in KotOR2 before this mod. That being said: As this mod is strictly designed for KotOR1 and not for KotOR2, any sounds that do not end of playing what you expected should not be reported to me.
     
    Installation:
    -----------------
    You'll not be dropping these into your Override like my usual mods.  This time you have new steps to follow.
     
    1) Move the original KotOR1 files that share the file names in this mod 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.
    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!”
    So . . . uh . . . keep that in mind.
     
    Uninstall:
    --------------
    Remove my files from the Streamsounds folder. Put the original files that you saved elsewhere back in the Streamsounds folder.

  2. [K1] DarthVarkor’s Dann Kasra “Before the Reveal” - PC Replacement Soundset

    AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
    ORIGINAL RELEASE: 3 MAR 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 seen DarthVarkor’s series, perhaps you might have considered making your character sound like his.  With this mod for KotOR1, now you can.
    I asked DarthVarkor to record all of the lines that the PC says.  He even threw in a couple of extra takes (“p_plyermw_slct9 (improvised extra) and “p_plyermw_stlh4”) as his character might be more likely to say the lines that way. You could rename those lines to replace the normal lines if you do desire. If you decide to do that, be sure not include the original line you’ll be replacing. 
    As his series’ main character hasn’t had the spoiler-laden reveal in this sound set, he’s not wearing a mask so there’s no filter here.

    I asked DarthVarkor to record all of the lines that the PC says in the standard game.  He even threw in an few extra take (“p_plyermw_rprty3 (alt take)”) as his Revan (a/k/a Dann Kasra) would be more likely to say the line that way.  As his series’ main character has turned to the dark side in this sound set, he’s already wearing the mask so there’s an appropriate filter here.

  4. Frank Lloyd Wright Glass Replacement in the Ebon Hawk

    ORIGINAL RELEASE: 24 NOV 2019
    GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 & 2 (see notes below for which files are applicable to which game)
     
    Description:
     
    I’ve done a few small modifications for the Ebon Hawk over the years, most of which aren’t things that I’ve felt measured up to the standards of the KOTOR modding community.  However, one of the small modifications that I’ve made recently showed up in a movie clip presented by Darth Varkor. 
     
    It seemed to result in some nice feedback so I’ve reconsidered holding this one back.
    The glass in the Ebon Hawk that this mod replaces in this mod originally looked like this:


    (texture size increased to 512 x 512 for easier viewing)
    My version replaces this blue version (LEH_light04) with a Luxfer Prism designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. 

     
    It also replaces the unlit version (LEH_light06).

    Finally, I’ve replaced LEH_light03 as it currently has the LEH_light04 texture behind a circular grate.  You now have two choices - the new blue light behind the old grate or the new grate that Dark Hope created in her IGM mod. (Dark Hope's texture used with permission.)

     
    Those wanting further information on the Luxfer Prism can consult this article.
     
    Though I've placed this in the Knights of the Old Republic 2 section, this mod is compatible with both games.  However, only the following textures are actually seen in KotOR1: LEH_light03 and LEH_light04.
     
    But what about LEH_light11?

    (texture size shown actual size for comparison to original blue texture above)
    Those comfortable rooting around in the KotorTool for textures may have noticed a different texture called “LEH_light11” which is a red version of the original texture. 

    However – as confirmed by DarthParametric – it doesn’t appear in any of the MDLs so it won’t ordinarily show up in the game.  That doesn’t mean someone may not implement it in a future mod for TSL.  Therefore, I’ve included a red version of the Luxfer Prism as well.  If you don’t wish to unnecessarily clutter your Override folder, don’t place LEH_light11.tga or LEH_light11.txi - this is an animated file - into it.  The red version also has a 7-step animation, with a slight brightening to simulate a “red alert” type of situation. 

    This is an optional file. 
     
    Installation:
     
    For KotOR1, you'll be adding the following files to your Override folder: LEH_light03.tga, LEH_light04.tga, LEH_light04.txi.  However, you'll have to choose which version of LEH_light03.tga you want from one of the two sub-folders.
    For KotOR2, you'll be adding the following files to your Override folder: LEH_light03.tga, LEH_light04.tga, LEH_light04.txi and LEH_light06.tga.  However, you'll have to choose which version of LEH_light03.tga you want from one of the two sub-folders. Do not include the LEH_light11 files to your Override folder unless you have a mod that enables that texture in your game and you wish to use my version instead of the original texture.
     
    Uninstallation:
     
    Take them out again.
     
    Known Bugs:
     
    None known at this time.

    I hereby state that I specifically do NOT wish this mod to be uploaded to Steam. I may release this on NexusMods at a later date but I don't wish others to do so on my behalf. Usage in other mods must be requested AND approved by me before your use with the exception of the LEH_light04 texture.  Usage of the Dark Hope version of the LEH_light04 texture in your mod requires the permission of both Dark Hope AND myself. (I must also be included in the PM that you send to Dark Hope so I can see the permission granted with my own eyes.)
     
    Credits & Special Thanks:
     
    Dark Hope: For her kind permission to alter her LEH_light04 texture and include it with this mod.
    DarthParametric: For discovering that LEH_light11 doesn’t appear in the MDL files of TSL.
    Maverick8341 (on Reddit): For their valiant attempts to find visual evidence that LEH_light11 appears in TSL.

  5. Replacement Texture for Lightning on Malachor V

    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!

    I own none of the materials, and I'm not making any money out of this mod. It is to be distributed as-is without alteration, unless by permission of the mod author. This mod is not to be distributed for profit, either. Use it however you like, but if you're going to post it up somewhere, or make a derivative mod, or use it in another mod, please put a line in the readme, mentioning me. I hereby state that I specifically do NOT wish this mod to be uploaded to Steam Workshop - with the exception of Hassat Hunter who has my permission to do so.

  6. Replacement Loading Screens for KotOR2: Add-On Pack (with or without TSLRCM)

    ORIGINAL RELEASE: 17 APR 2018
    UPDATED RELEASE: 23 MAR 2019
    UPDATED RELEASE: 27 AUG 2019

    GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2. [This mod will not work in Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1.]
     
    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:
    Compatible with VarsityPuppet's TOR Style Loading Screens 1.0
    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.

  7. [K1] Gordon Freeman from Half Life - PC Replacement Soundset

    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.

  8. Replacement Loading Screens for KotOR2: Original Pack (with or without TSLRCM) - Part 3

    AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
    ORIGINAL RELEASE: 17 APR 2018
     
    GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2. [This mod will not work in Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1.]
     
    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 areas in the normal “vanilla” game and the areas added/restored by TSLRCM. If you’re looking for additional loading screens that cover large scale add-on mods, you should seek out the “Replacement Loading Screens for KotOR2 Add-On 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.

  10. Czerka Sign and Desk Enhancement

    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.

    Pictures:
     
    Before and after of the Czerka sign.

     
    Note the animation of the desk monitor.  This GIF is a bit janky looking.  I assure you that the animation runs much smoother in the actual game.

    After

     
    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.

  11. HQ Movies Update Patch (all 6 parts)

    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

  12. NPC Portraits for KotOR 1

    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.
    RedRob41 - His "Juhani Catlike Head Mod" mod was essential for this project allowing for seven different variations of Juhani!
    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.
    miro42 - For his "Juhani Real Cathar Head" model change and skin.
    Jorak Uln - For the Taris planet texture seen in the Trask portrait and for most of the textures used in the background of the Jolee texture.
    Kexikus - For his high quality skybox skins, seen here in the following portraits: Jolee.
    Thunder3 - For the high quality skins in his Endar Spire Mod - seen in the Trask and Carth portraits.
    Shoelace - For the instructions on how to use XnView for Jorak Uln's Manaan mod. (Jorak Uln? Might I humbly suggest to update your instructions? Please?)
    djh269 - Beta-testing and for read-me proof-reading.
    N-DReW25 - Beta-testing on Android. (That's a new one for one of my mods.)

    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!

  15. KOTOR1 Animated Galaxy Map

    KOTOR1 Animated Galaxy Map 1.0
    ==============================
     
    AUTHOR: Sith Holocron
    ORIGINAL RELEASE: 26 OCT 2015
    UPDATED RELEASE: 26 OCT 2015
    GAMES: Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic
     

    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.
     
    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.
     
    Don't use this with Knights of the Old Republic 2, if seeing planets only seen in Knights of the Old Republic 1 causes any measure of distress. (Use the TSL version instead.)
     
    Installation:
    -------------
     
    For Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic - Extract the files into the Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic/Override folder.
    For Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic - Extract the files into the SWKotOR2/Override folder.
     

    Uninstallation:
    -------------
     
    Take them out again.
     

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