Commas' Exile Robes

[Icesin4ever 0]

Can someone please update Commas' Exile Robes for KOTOR2  Thes robes are amazing and fits the lore. 

I’ve been trying to restore an old KOTOR II robe mod — Comma’s Exile Robe, the one that used to give the Exile a brown, worn, tattered outfit you found in your Harbinger quarters. It’s one of the oldest, most obscure mods from the PCGameMods era, and it basically vanished from the internet for almost 20 years.

I finally got a copy of it, but there’s a problem:  
all the torn and frayed parts that used to be transparent now show up as shiny silver.

That silver isn’t part of the design — it’s the game engine telling me the original texture’s alpha channel is broken or missing, so instead of showing holes and ragged edges, it fills them with reflective metal. Back in 2004 the game handled transparency differently, so the mod worked perfectly then, but modern TSL (especially with TSLRCM, Steam, or HD texture packs) needs updated textures or they break like this.

So right now the robe looks wrong — the shape is there, the colors are there, but the soul of it is missing. The holes, the frayed cloth, the worn‑down edges… all the things that made it feel like the Exile had actually lived through years of wandering are replaced by chrome patches.

And that’s exactly why I care so much about fixing it.

This robe wasn’t flashy or overpowered. It wasn’t a Jedi uniform or a fancy armor set. It looked used, scarred, and survived‑in — like something the Exile would realistically have been wearing after the Mandalorian Wars and the years of drifting afterward. It made the opening of the game feel more grounded and personal. It made the Exile feel like a real person with a real past, not just a character model.

It’s one of the few mods that ever captured that feeling.

So I’m trying to modernize it — restore the transparency, upscale it to HD, and keep the original look intact. I don’t want to redesign it. I just want it to look the way it used to, only sharper and working properly in 2026.

If anyone has experience fixing old alpha‑channel textures or converting them cleanly to TPC with proper transparency, I’d really appreciate the help. This robe meant a lot to me back then, and I’d love to bring it back the way it was meant to be seen.
