Kexikus Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 I'm working on my first texture pack right now. As the title says, my goal is to provide high quality textures for the starfields and nebulae seen in both KotOR games. I already made some good progress, but I still need to figure out where some textures are used (especially for K1, since that game has soo many star textures...) The one I'm mainly wondering right now is from TSL however and called PER_nebula01.tga. I already know that it's seen on the large monitor in Peragus' administration level, but I'd like to know if anyone knows of another place it's used in. Also, while I was looking for places that texture is used in I found some screenshots by sELFiNDUCEDcOMA where he seems to have added textures in places they were not present in vanilla, as seen in this post for example: http://deadlystream.com/forum/topic/2062-tsl-textures-remastered/?p=24681 I liked the idea of doing something like this, so I was wondering if it'd be possible i.e. not too much work for someone with almost no KotOR modding experience like me to do such a thing, even though I wouldn't use it in this mod.

Malkior Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 I've tried it out for myself (although SIC helped out with the area model names). Short answer is, it's a little complicated, but what I did was edited the area model file and changed the texture for one I renamed. There are actually two nebulae (one orange and one purple) with the purple one being used in the spacewalk portion. You can also get the orange one to work with a little .txi trickery, while I believe the aforementioned method works on the purple. Quote
Kexikus Posted November 8, 2014 Author Posted November 8, 2014 Yeah, the orange one is used as backdrop during the prologue but I couldn't find the purple on during the spacewalk :/ Oh and I could use some help with K1 too: I already found the background texture used on the Endar Spire, the Ebon Hawk, the Leviathan, the Starforge, the Yavin Station and during the turret minigame. However there are still 4 star textures that are used in none of those places. Are there any areas I've forgotten that could include those? Quote
