N-DReW25 1,341 Posted August 18, 2017 View File M4-78 Alternate Skybox Pack A Mod for Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic 2 Authors: N-DReW25 and Sith Holocron 1.0.0 Release Date: 18.08.2017 1.1.0 Release Date: 31.08.2021 Description: If you’ve played M4-78EP before, you might be surprised that the Skybox textures you see in that mod are NOT the intended Skybox that Obsidian sought to use for M4-78. The original M4-78, as designed by Obsidian Entertainment, used the left-over skyboxes of the cut planet Sleheyron from the 1st game and altered these skyboxes to use be used on M4-78. These original skybox for M4-78, as intended by Obsidian, was briefly seen in Kotor 2's E3 trailer. In 2008, Quanon created a new skybox for Stoney’s original M4-78 mod. These skyboxes had higher quality buildings, a darker wine-brown sky and visible green radiation. The Skybox you see in M4-78EP today was created by Stoney himself, these skyboxes have the background of a light orange sky with tall buildings. This is the skybox you see in the most up to date version of M4-78EP. Installation: First, make sure you have M4-78EP 1.5 installed for the best playing experience! Follow the instructions on the M4-78EP download page to install M4-78EP. https://deadlystream.com/files/file/277-m4-78-enhancement-project/ Warning: It is advised that you do NOT use the Steam Workshop version of TSLRCM or M4-78EP due to compatibility issues with other mods. If you do choose to use the Steam Workshop, you will need to install this mod into your Steam Workshop Override folder instead! If you are using Sith Holocron's "Replacement Loading Screens for KotOR2: Add-On Pack (with or without TSLRCM) 1.3" mod, be sure to install this mod last! Once you have M4-78EP installed, you will have 3 different skyboxes to choose from (you can only use 1 skybox at a time!). Option 1: Stoney's M4-78 Version - by Quanon: 1) Open the “Stoney Version (by Quanon)” folder. 2) Open the “For Override” folder 3) Copy the 10 tga files within the “For Override” folder and paste these files inside your Knights of the Old Republic II Override folder Option 2: Obsidian Version - by Obsidian Entertainment: 1) Open the “Obsidian Version” folder. 2) Open the “For Override” folder 3) Copy the 10 tga files within the “For Override” folder and paste these files inside your Knights of the Old Republic II Override folder Option 3: Sleheyron Version - by Bioware, roof texture by Sith Holocron: 1) Open the “Sleheyron Version” folder. 2) Open the “For Override” folder 3) Copy the 10 tga files within the “For Override” folder and paste these files inside your Knights of the Old Republic II Override folder Uninstallation: To uninstall this version and restore the original M4-78EP skyboxes, simply copy the contents of the BACKUP folder into your Knights of the Old Republic II Override folder. Warning: If you simply delete the Skybox and Loading Screen files from your Override without copying the BACKUP files you will have no loading screens for M4-78 and the Obsidian Skyboxes by default. Known Bugs: The droid testing facility loading screen does not appear, this is a core problem with M4-78EP 1.5 content and not this mod. Once a fix for M4-78EP 1.5 has been made, this bug will be fixed (This is outside of my control though). If you encounter any bugs, just report to N-DReW25 via PM on Deadlystream.com Incompatibilities: This mod is compatible with Kexikus’ High Quality Skybox mod for TSL and any other mod which replaces the skybox for M4-78 EP. This doesn’t include textures that change the skybox as viewed from inside the Ebon Hawk.
