Shem Robe Revival [Cloaked Edition]

---

A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic
Author: N-DReW25
1.0.0 Release Date: 01.04.2024

Installation:
This mod comes with reskins for JC's Fashion Line I: Cloaked Jedi Robes for K1 and the JC's Fashion Line I: Cloaked Hybrid Robes for K1, thus you need to install ONE of these two mods prior to this mod to get the intended reskins that this mod offers.

These two mods are incompatible with one another, so you'll have to decide whether you want Cloaked Robes or Cloaked Hybrid Robes before installing this mod.

If you installed the Cloaked Hybrid Robes for K1 mod, open the "Cloaked Hybrid" folder, copy all of the .TPC files from that folder and copy them into your Override (make sure you overwrite the files already in there).

If you installed the Cloaked Jedi Robes for K1 mod, open the "Cloaked Normal" folder, copy all of the .TPC files from that folder and copy them into your Override (make sure you overwrite the files already in there).

Description:
Ladies and gentlemen, come with me now on a journey to the savage days of years gone by... to a time when porting was a bannable offense, to a time when people seriously used the medium and low texture settings for a performance boost when playing the Kotor games, to a time before M4-78 was restored, to a time when TSLRP was still in development, to a time when the high quality weapon and skybox mods we take for granted were simply inconceivable, to a time when the TSLPatcher was brand new, to a time when Kotor Tool and MDLOps were the pinnacle of modding tools, to a time when Windows Vista was the current Windows OS and the Xbox 360 was the current gen console, to a time when most mods didn't have a TSLPatcher and even if they did they were an incompatible hack job - this was the time of the early Kotor modding community.

In 2025, most players use TSLRCM and K1CP, the big planet mod is M4-78EP, High Quality Weapon mods are a must, High Quality Skyboxes and Planet reskins are a must, every player and party member has an ultra HD reskin by Dark Hope, every Jedi Robe in K1 has a cloak ported from K2 by JCarter. But back in 2006, the mods that were available to the early players were far more limiting and lesser quality than the mods we have today. Two mods from this era was Shem L's Prequel Style Robes for both K1 and K2, you probably haven't used them before but you might recognize them from some of Shem L's old YouTube videos.

Shem's Prequel Style Robes would've been a viable mod to use between 2006 and 2014 until Kainzorus Prime released his Prequel Robe Replacement mod which updated the robe model with something far superior. Kainzorus Prime's Prequel Robe Replacement would likewise have been viable from 2014 to 2018 when JCarter426 released his JC's Fashion Line I: Cloaked Jedi Robes for K1 which ported the cloaked Jedi Robes from K2, a feature the players had been craving for over a decade by that point.

It should be no surprise to anyone that JC's Cloaked Jedi Robe mod is the number 1 robe mod for Kotor 1 whilst Kainzorus Prime's Prequel Robe Replacement is a minor competitor and Shem L's Prequel Style Robes is virtually forgotten.

And this is where I come in.

Back in 2022, I tried to change the above fact by releasing my K1 Movie-Style Jedi Master Robes. This mod ported DeadMan's Movie-Style Jedi Master Robes to K1 and gave you an option to replace the Star Forge 2DA slot with the Cloaked Movie-Style Robes so that you can use Kainzorus Prime's Prequel Robe Replacement alongside it, meaning you can have Cloaked Robes by DeadMan and Prequel Robes by Kainzorus Prime at the same time.

This mod does something similar but for Shem L's old mod, this mod takes Shem L's Prequel Style Robes for both K1 and K2 and makes them compatible with JC's Cloaked Jedi Robes. Shem L's K2 Prequel Style Robes will replace JC's Cloaked Jedi Robes whilst Shem L's K1 Prequel Style Robes will replace JC's Hybrid Robes.
