Black Core Lightsabers

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if there are any mods that add black core sabers to TSL? Preferably the skin would be similar to the black core sabers from SWTORLwpYU.jpg

Interesting, I had never seen that mod. I did try to get a black core but failed, I think because of how the texture gets applied to the model. This updates the model, I assume to get past that problem.

It appears to me that in TOR there's no color in the blade either, only in the outer glow.

I took a look at the texture for the black one and it should be as simple as giving the white parts a color because there's transparency in the image.

You can give this a try as a reskin for the black one:
(convert to tga, I can't attach a tga, name it/replace w_lsabreblak01.tga)
I multiplied the layer to make the glow more visible, might be too much though.

I recently reinstalled KotOR, don't really want to mod it yet, but I'm interested in a screenshot of that in action.

And if I wanted to get this texture into TSL how would I do that, don't the lightsaber textures in that game have more dots than in kotor

This is a texture from Crixler's mod, for the replacement models he made. They won't work without that mod.
I see he hasn't been here since last June and I read he was trying to bring it to TSL, but yeah.. the story ends there.
I was just showing how you could tweak things with some basic image editing, for your own use, for KotOR 1.

Here it is as a .tga file, with a .txi file for animating. You'll need to download and install Crixler's mod linked above and then just drop these into the Override folder (replacing the ones already there). For simplicity, these are replacing the blue lightsaber for testing purposes.
