Davik's Noble Vestments


Description:

As I've explored all the mods which adjust and improve the textures and models for various objects and people in the game, I've noticed that surprisingly little attention has been given to modifying the appearance or look of one NPC in particular: Davik Kang, the crime lord and leader of the Exchange crime syndicate on Taris. While he doesn't have much actual screen time, he is quite important to much of the Taris section of the game. Although the tastes and opinions of people will vary wildly on this, I always felt like his appearance was rather "clunky" as he always seemed to be wearing his armor. Despite the fact that this is understandable, it would seem more fitting for an important crime-lord and de-facto important "noble" of Taris to be dressed rather formal or fancy given how others of his profession and rank are typically dressed. It would not be far-fetched to assume one in his position could wear a robe or formal jacket with body armor underneath for protection while maintaining a more "polished" look on the outside. I've included a custom skin and ported model from Kotor II for Davik's outer vestments, as well as a sharper-textured tpc file for his head that is included in the K2 game files.

Installation:

Just run the TSLPatcher the direct it to your game file

To Uninstall:

Remove the files from your Override folder and add the backup .2da file to it

Copyright:

Anyone is welcome to use my models and textures, just please ask first and be sure to give me credit

UPDATE:

New version includes texture of his robe without the military medals, as requested

Thanks to:

Effix, N-DReW25, Thor110, and others for giving me the basics of porting models and assigning textures in the game
