Quanons Calo Nord Skin
This is a small skin pack I had laying about. It just improves Calo Nord, the bounty hunter.
You'll get two variants, in this pack, each has its own folder.The "Gamelook", as the name implies, is Calo in his blue vest outfit and white hat.
Second folder, QsLook, is a minor recolor of my own choice. It gives him a tanned darker vest.
And black hat. Other details remain just the same.He now has a mustache! I know! It just made sense to me 😄
To install; unpack and then copy the contents to your override folder.

Quanons Taris Upscaled Textures
This mod will add upscaled textures for the planet Taris. Except the skies and Sith base see note below.
All textures are now 4x their original size. Example a 128x128 becomes 512x512, etc...I've not gone up to the 4096x4096 sizes as I don't see what that would add to this older game.
A few textures do get to this size, example is the Ebon Hawk. Normal maps have also been redone,
rerendered not just upscaled.It's still a 400% improvement on the older files. Enjoy!

I really like what you have there, Sion is the brawler of the 3 lords you deal with in TSL.
As djh269 mentioned he's now even more intimidating by his presence.Guess I'll have to upscale his texture as well, to match the size 😂

Thanks, Marius for the in depth reply.
Honestly I'm just doing it so everything has a size increase. If it is really noticeable within the game; would require a more in depth screenshot comparison.
But sadly I fear on how the game uses said normalmaps/ bumpmaps it's not going to do that much in the end.I've just included all the .txi files to be certain the game uses it all as it should. Though no idea what takes precedence when the game loads textures. Txi or TPC.
Also mind the normalmaps are basically the diffuse texture I run through FilterForge. The program offers a few different "filters" to obtain a normalmap from any sort of picture.Try to match the original as best I can. In all honesty I'm not that tech savy 😅
These 2 threads here on DeadlyStream have lots of info on said subject:

In the description it is mentioned normal maps being included and not just upscaled but rerendered.
I checked the archive and, if I am not mistaken, there is not a single normal map in it. There are a few .txi files for the normal maps which are the very same the original game uses.
Is this correct or am I missing something?
You are correct! No idea how that happened, but I forgot to pack them with the other textures.
Thanks , for bringing this up. I'll add them to the download page ASAP.-

It seems I've not updated the normalmaps for this pack correctly; you might encounter an error message while playing the game.
To fix the Invalid Normalmap:
Remove the following ;tga files from your override folder:
-LDA_Ehawk01b
-LDA_flr01B
-LDA_flr02B
-LDA_flr10b
-LDA_FreightL01b
-LDA_trim01B
-LDA_water02B
-LDA_wall03bmp
-LDA_rock04BReplace these with the .tpc versions. That should fix any issues.
The quick fix can be found bellow, for those who already downloaded this. -

Now if only there were some extra content on Tatooine to give people an excuse to spend more time there, eh? 🤔😉

Hey, all!
I recently reinstalled 3Ds Max and KotorMax. But I ran into a little snag. Whenever I hit export I get this error message.
I've looked through an old PM chain between me and Bead-V, cause I had the feeling I've encountered this before... Feel like a noob now 😅I checked the KotorMax.ini file. UseMax is 1, so... Sanity looks weird though?

Quanons modding tutorials
A long time ago, on the LucasForums, I made some tutorials. Most where about 3d models and how to get them working in the game.
Mind the long time ago, most of these tutorials will mention older modding tools. Still, they might contain some helpful knowledge and a few handy tips.The files aren't ordered, most names should give you a good clue though, what the tutorial is about. Most are old AVI videos, the quality isn't super.
Other files often contain a word doc and some extra gubbins you can open in 3Ds Max.
Not much is said on how to model in 3Ds Max, for that, far better videos and instructions can be found on youtube and on the internet at large.
Even I use it frequently to learn new tricks or speed up my work or to troubleshoot a model. Also, keep trying and trying, you don't want to know how often I had to.
Happy modding! And enjoy the nostalgia trip.

After updating Bastilas hair, I decided Carth couldn't be left behind.
I've got mixed results... The UVmap on Carth badly stretches parts of his skin.
And all the nice detail I had gets a bit lost. It all gets a very soft look; the details aren't as sharp.
It just looks odd. Certainly when I did a test in the game. On my preview renders it's a bit less.
But; perhaps the hair samples I used where to long. Though I alway thought Carth had a bit more flow to his hair;
say compared to Canderous. But it seems I can't get that look across.
Bioware certainly did a very poor job on the unwrapping of the UVmaps of the main characters.
I don't understand all the cuts they've made across the model. It just makes the whole skinning process difficult.
Anyhow, here's what I've got so far on this:
EDIT1:
Forgot to add, the other 'sexy' stuff:
Edit2:
Kept on tweaking; to get flow of the hair to match up better on each part of his UVmap and figured out how to get a nice color on it. That at least comes a bit closer to his vanilla look.
I'll keep the blondy Carth as an extra option for the pack. I guess I might also include a black haired Carth.
What eye colors would match up best for those?
Onwards to a quick preview in the game.
-
Kept working on Bastila some more. Minor tweaks to the face. Main focus was getting the hair to look good this time.
Spend more time to make sure the hair flows a bit a better. The test before the direction of the hair didn't work good on the model.
Also spend time to get the hair color ok looking. I'll release a pack. So far I've got a good 'dark' brown. 'Light' ( stronger contrast) brown and a blonde Bastila.
Which looks really weird; but that's just because I'm used to seeing her as a brunette
Preview of 'light' brown and blondy (which just needs better fitting make up):
