Hai hai. I've been playing KOTOR 1 and noticed that the textures are old and ugly, so I'm making my own upscaling mod using Gigapixel AI (not sure whether I should release it to the public if I finish it, there are already 10 million upscale mods for the game). While I'm at it, I've also noticed that the lightmaps in the game are very blurry and low-res, and I haven't seen any mods that tackle this (I can barely even find any documentation on modding lightmaps). What I was wondering, is if the lightmaps can be put out into a .TIF file or the like, and then upscaled. I've found a bunch of lightmaps.bif files in Kotor Tool, and under them there are TGA images, so it looks like a pretty simple process in terms of just outputting them and upscaling them. But I'm very inexperienced, and I just wanted to know: 1. Are the TGA images the actual textures that I'll need to upscale? 2. Will I have to rebake the lightmaps into the map (or do something such), or just plop those textures into Override and it'll work? I'm not sure if I worded all of this proper-like; this is my first time getting in the game's guts so I barely understand what I'm doing with the normal textures I'm upscaling, let alone the lightmaps that I've never touched. Help is appreciated. EDIT: Another thing - upscaling bumpmaps pretty much makes the game throw them out with errors when I boot it up, and things like Selkath and water just have no bumpmaps when loaded up that way. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but any help getting to the bottom of that would be very appreciated as well. I've attached the upscaled Selkath texture and bumpmap if that helps. n_selkath01b.tga n_selkath01.tga
