redrob41 Posted 12 hours ago Posted 12 hours ago View File Specialized Combat Suits HD TSL Specialized Combat Suits HD for TSL by RedRob41 ================================================================ IF YOU ARE EVER IN ANY DOUBT ABOUT INSTALLING ANY MODS, PLEASE REMEMBER TO ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR FILES BEFORE INSTALLATION, JUST IN CASE. WARNING: MAKE SURE NOT TO REPLACE ANY FILES OF THE SAME NAME THAT ARE ALREADY PRESENT IN YOUR OVERRIDE FOLDER! ================================================================ Description: This is not really a mod, but more of a modder's resource. It includes textures for the basic Combat Suit PFBC and PMBC, as well as icons and uti files to make them wearable. Anyone who has created a story mod for either game can use these suits to add some variety to the NPCs that the player interacts with. I have also included models in which I have fixed the uvw maps, so that the textures appear correctly (the original models had some polygons in the wrong places). The new models should work with any other texture mods, since they work perfectly with the in-game ones. The armour class is the same as the basic Combat Suit, so there isn't any real advantage to wearing them as a player. The real power of these files, is that a modder can create a whole army with both male and female members (and using any head model for NPC variety). The textures were made from original textures that appear in both games, so there is no issue of porting. There will be three versions of this mod to choose to download: 1 - 4x .tga version. Highest resolution, the typical texture is now 2048x2048 pixels which = 16MB. This version is the best choice to use as a modder's resource. 2 - 4x .tpc version. Created by running full size .tgas through tga2tpc program which compresses a 2048x2048 pixel file to 5.5MB. This version should be easier on PC systems, with no noticeable loss of visual fidelity. 3 - 2x .tpc version. Created by reducing full size .tgas by half in Photoshop, then running them through tga2tpc which further compresses them to 1.4MB. This version should be much easier on PC systems. All versions include the same .mdl & .mdx files. Only one version should be installed at a time; having both .tga files and .tpc files with the same name in the Override folder may cause problems. ================================================================ Compatibility: The male models PMBCx and BAODUR_BC are duplicates of the models found in the mod called 4x Upscale+ Character Textures & Model Fixes for TSL - Version 0.52 by RedRob41. The female models PFBCx in this mod have had additional uvw fixes since the V0.52 mod, and are therefore superior. The models aren't necessary, but the new textures will look much better with them. If you have other mods that change the models, you might prefer to use those ones. Check them out to be sure which you'd prefer. ================================================================ Includes: TSL Republic Combat Suit a_light_42.uti PFBC42.tga, PMBC42.tga, ia_class4_042.tga Sith Combat Suit a_light_43.uti PFBC43.tga, PMBC43.tga, ia_class4_043.tga Czerka Combat Suit a_light_44.uti PFBC44.tga, PMBC44.tga, ia_class4_044.tga T.S.F.

TSL uti files: These are necessary in order to wear the armours in-game. The name of the uti file is what you would use to cheat them in with the cheat console, example: giveitem a_light_42 will give your player the Republic Combat suit. ================================================================ Uninstall: Delete unwanted files from the game's Override folder. ================================================================ Thanks for modding tools: KOTOR Tool – Fred Tetra mdlops (used version 7a2) - cchargin, JdNoa NWMax – Joco Replacer - Taina tga2tpc - ndix UR KotOR/KotOR2 Savegame Editor v3.3.2 - tk102, Fair Strides Hex-editor XVI32 2.55 - Christian Maas ================================================================ Permission: Consider this as a modder's resource.
