  1. I apologize everyone when I applied with codec it totally wrecked the files. They went from 44.1 khz 16 bit stereo to 22.1khz 8bit mono. I've recently learned that the music files needed a drag and drop only and didn't have to be processed with sith codec. At least on android. Thankfully mods are transferrable between both platforms. Perhaps that program wasn't needed for my use case. I'm uploading the normal wav files to the nexus link rn. The wav files were butchered by the sithcodec program so when I played it on my android phone only the standard streammusic files from the obb were played. Audio mods are underrated especially for games such as Kotor. I'm thinking about making one for Oblivion Remastered. That is a bit different than Skyrim though thanks to the unreal engine. I'm almost done with that one 😁 EDIT/UPDATE: I was mistaken in thinking this mod works as intended. I'll leave the nexus page up either way just Incase somebody knows what went wrong and if there's a fix. I'm starting to think the game is hard coded to 22khz sample rate. I had a similar issue modding Half Life 1's soundtrack to lossless quality.
  2. By default Kotor uses wav files of very low resolution. 8 bit and 22 khz to be precise. I was able to locate the wav (16/44.1) files for the soundtrack (all the files starting with mus_) and applied Sith Codec so they can be used in game. The zip file contains all the wavs in the streammusic renamed to the appropriate titles of in game play. If installing with Vortex please make sure it installs to the root swkotor folder. If installing manually just drop the override folder into swkotor (or files folder for Android). Credit is given to these people JCarter426 on deadly stream for the sith codec program. -https://deadlystream.com/files/file/1716-sithcodec/ DarthVigorous as i used his mod music overhaul mod as reference when renaming the mus_... audio files. -https://deadlystream.com/files/file/2347-high-quality-kotor-music-overhaul/ Please note that this only affects the longer soundtrack files that can be found on youtube (mus_...). If you using DarthVigorous's high quality music overhaul let this mod overwrite his (my files have been unaltered straight from the CDunlike what he did for his mod). This mod can be best heard with goood speakers or earphones. INSTALLATION: Place the files into the /streammusic folder located in Kotor 's root directory. These don't work for me on the PC version as is so you'll just get silence instead of music. I'll see if there's anything I can do to make the game play these at their resolution. UPDATE/IMPORTANT: Sadly it seems that the game does not support the resolution of these files. Specifically i believe it to be locked at 22khz. I have attached the raw files incase anybody would like to troubleshoot for themselves. These haven't been processed with sithcodec. Android is the same way except I believe the default vanilla music files from the .obb are played instead. I've had a similar problem trying to replace Half Life 1s soundtrack on P.C. Side effect of old game engines it seems. Hopefully Oblivion remastered fares differently. Enjoy! Don't forget to back up the old 8 bit mus_... Files from streammusic first before overwriting them if you want to test it. I'll attach a backup of the original 8 bit mus_ files for Kotor 1 and the respective files for Kotor 2 soon.
