Okay, since I was not satisfied with the previous attempt I have redone this from scratch and the result is way better. Since it is the first time I dabble with GIMP and retexturing, I welcome feedback and suggestions for further improvements. If none is given, I was considering uploading this as graphics enhancement for KOTOR. I think the tree looks finally decent (and I also tried to remain quite true to the original texture) and the new texture is only 430 470Kbs in size.

Have you tried ImageCFG to force the usage of a single core?
-
Fascinating. I didn't remember noticing any noticeable lag when I played DS a couple of years ago. Using a much less powerful GPU than you have, DarthParametric.

Thanks, Ebmar. I will soon give it a try (not at home now). I am quite happy with the improvement although I fear that there'd be need of work to be done on the models to make it a little more seamless and it is not something I am capable to do.

I tried this version too but the problem hasn't gone away. Thank you very much for your help though. I guess the imperfections are quite minor and if nothing can be done about it, I will keep it the way it is. It does bother me though. But since it's my wife that works with the texture on GIMP, I will have to wait for her return to see if something can be done with the Alpha Mask. I am completely ignorant about graphics.

Unfortunately it still has the same issue.

Of course! Here it is. LDA_leaf02.tga

Hello again! Using blending punchthrough did improve things dramatically but there are still imperfections. I am attaching a new screenshot.

Hello! I am replaying KotOR and I am currently in Dantooine. I could not help noticing how awful the original 128x128 LDA_leaf02.tga texture is so I've tried to use GIMP in order to work on a replacement. While not being the improvement I was hoping for, it is better than the original but I have a problem with the texture showing a white line around the border at times and from certain angles... I have attached two screens with the original texture and my replacement. Any help with diagnosing the issue would be much appreciated since the current state is simply unacceptable. Also, I'd be grateful for advice, suggestions or general feedback. Thanks!

Version 5.2
64,511 downloads
In an attempt to salvage some material from the now defunct SW:KotOR Upgrade project, I have decided to share this modification with the community. This file is meant to replace the original dialog.tlk that comes with the original game. It is meant to be used exclusively with the English version of the game. It is technically compatible with every other modification that alter this same file by patching it, provided this is installed first. Two versions are offered: one that includes only corrections and a revised one that includes most of the changes found in the PC Response Moderation modification by Kainzorus Prime. Enjoy! -
Version 1.2

In an attempt to salvage some material from the now defunct SW:KotOR Upgrade project, I have decided to share this modification with the community. The basic idea is to allow players that dislike profoundly to reload upon losing Pazaak matches to have a better chance at winning. In KotOR, the player is unfairly forced to start each round of Pazaak, favoring considerably the AI. While I could not remedy this injustice, I could work around it by redesigning the three Pazaak decks that the AI uses against the player to counterbalance the odds. Winning is still hard and mostly a luck-based matter. It is made actually more difficult because most opponents now do require the player to win more than they have (as opposed to the original fixed amount of times) in order to unlock the dialogue about running out of funds. And when they do wage their cards but end up winning, they would play for credits again. Thus the need of nerfing considerably the value of the AI's cards. In the process, a number of bugs have been corrected and improvements to the dialogues have been made. More can be read in the included Read Me file. Enjoy! -
I am completely ignorant about reskinning and retexturing so please correct me if I am wrong but I seemed to notice that in many cases lots of details are gone, often due to the colors being much more washed out and returning an image that looks way more "flat" than the original, low res one. This is what made me stick to original textures in many cases, especially when I was involved in selecting which should be included in my now defunct project.

No, those are body textures. SpaceAlex did some work in his K1 Enhancement mod and provided a couple higher resolution replacements.
-
It seems the following files are among the worst offenders: N_TwilekM(x)01.tga N_TwilekF(x)01.tga with a low 256x256 resolution.
-
I appreciate your help. Thank you!
-
That's a good suggestion. Thanks, DarthParametric.
-
Hello! Does anyone know of any attempt made in the past to reskin commoners and aliens wearing normal clothes? I seem to recall that only spacealex did work on it with good result in his incomplete K1 enhancement pack. Every time there is a close up during a dialogue scene I can't help but cringe...

Sithspecter, Today I have been experiencing the bug of the repeater blaster appearing in the Taris Sith Base. Just like for the one I reported two years ago, this happens exclusively only if the player is not alone (there must be another party member). The solution, suggested by A Future Pilot (thanks!), is to rename the files just like you recommended in the past for the other rifle. We need to rename w_rptnblstr_004.mdl/mdx to w_rptnblstr_04.mdl/mdx. And apparently something extra done by DarthParametric with the war droid model as well.

Excellent job, redrob41! Thanks for sharing.
