Toasty Fresh recently released his Weapon Model Overhaul, which replaced nearly all the low poly weapons with pristine new models and textures. However, I liked the idea of the textures for the weapons matching the game's original icons more closely than they did (or, in some cases, weapons being more varied than they were) so I set about editing Toasty Fresh's textures to make them look more like the original game's icons. And, with Toasty Fresh's permission, I am now releasing my work.

» DESCRIPTION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The goal of the Weapon Model Overhaul Texture Rework is to make use of wonderfully made weapon models, created by Toasty Fresh, in order to replace the vanilla weapons models and textures with high quality, high resolution ones, that still look and feel like the original game's weapons.

NOTE: THIS MOD NEEDS TOASTY FRESH'S WEAPON MODEL OVERHAUL IN ORDER TO WORK PROPERLY! DOWNLOAD HERE: http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?t=213484
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
» LIST OF CHANGES
- Replaces all weapon textures with variations of Toasty Fresh's textures.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
» INSTALLATION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An installation which involves the TSL Patcher has been made ready for your use and is the simplest and easiest way to carry out installation.
If you wish, for whatever reason, to not use TSL Patcher it will require you to manually copy and paste files from the tslpatchdata folder into the specific folders they need to be placed in.

Note: I am not responsible for any incompatibility issues that may arise (whether the mod was installed with TSLPatcher or manually) from the use of this mod in conjunction with other mods. Though I will do my best to fix any legitimate bugs.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
» TSL PATCHER INSTALLATION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1) Double click WMOTR Installer.exe found in the main directory of the Weapon Model Overhaul Texture Rework Folder.
2) Click the button labeled "Install Mod."
3) Click yes to the box that'll pop up... if you wish to proceed with installation.
4) Watch as all the little file names and progress reports scroll by and wait until the installer is complete.
   (NOTE: This will replace any files that have the same names as the ones being installed.)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A huge thank you to Toasty Fresh for creating his Weapon Model Overhaul. Basically, he did the hardest work for this mod, making the models and textures, and he allowed me to use his textures, rework them a bit, and release them.

Thanks Toasty Fresh!

Congratlations on a new quality release, Fallen Guardian!

One question though: are this mod and Toasty Fresh's compatible with your own Gaffi Stick Improvement and Blaster Pistol Enhancement? (I am using manual installation and I see there is some overwriting involved)

 

Thanks!

Thanks!

 

So long as Toasty Fresh's mod is installed first, everything else will install correctly.

Looks great!  I don't follow LF close enough to have seen Toasty's, but this variation seems like something I would have been more interested in.

 

Probably a dumb question:  Is there any way to leverage this mod to get some of these models in TSL?

You'd have to run the models through mdlops a couple of times in order to make them KotOR 2 compatible. To my knowledge though, Toasty Fresh is working on a KotOR 2 version.

So.... seems this must-have mod is unfortunately no longer possible. Wayback machine will not work for Lucasforum's download link, meaning that although we have a specialized kickass mod for HQ blasters, the swords and stuff are going to look terrible

No prob. I don't want to see good mods lost.

 

I'm glad I checked this thread out and finding Toasty Fresh's mod. I've been looking for a good reskin of swords.

Don't mean to unnecessarily resurrect this thread from the depths, but if I wanted to use Toasty Fresh's stuff for TSL how would I go about that? Toasty's original mod, then this i gather, but I recall something about either MDL, MDX or TXI files from KOTOR 1 not behaving properly in KOTOR 2, but I can't remember which?

I really would love to see the melee weapons being ported to TSL

Then make a request for it in the Mod Requests section, perhaps?  Because it's highly unlikely that Fallen Guardian is going to do anything about your request.

Does nobody know?
