NPC Reskins

[Xtracted 0]

Anyone remember SpaceAlex's K1 Enhancement Pack that remained unfinished?

Or any NPC Overhaul?

One trend, for me, in these type of mods is that they are always unfinished and add needless content to them. I've always imagined a mod that makes unique NPCs, unique. I'm talking about things like retextured armours or unique faces which drags them away from the common rabble. I don't mean an entire NPC overhaul, which completely changes the NPC structure and changes a lot of faces for simple background NPCs, I just mean uniqueness for the important ones. For example, despite Sunry being an old man, I believe it would be much improved if we could see a medal on his clothing, or perhaps he still dawns his old Republic Officer armour. Maybe unique armours for gangs, like blue for the beks and red for the vulkars. I know these examples I've mentioned are present in the Enhancement Pack, but I'd prefer a working mod that includes it.

A military man would only wear his medals and ribbons if he was wearing the uniform.  If he's retired and still wearing a medal that earned in military service, he's disrespecting that uniform. 

The medals given to the crew of the Ebon Hawk at the end of KotOR1 are mostly given to cvilian in a thrown together ceremony so they're an exception. Sunry would be a different case.

Additionally, his medal was stolen and left at the crime scene by the Sith in an effort to frame him (for a crime he incidentally did commit) so he wouldn't be wearing it.

But if you (or anyone) want to make an NPC appearance change mod thing, SpaceAlex released all those assets as a mod resource for anyone to use and finish and there are other available resources as well. The art really isn't the hard part. Partly on account of it's already been done by talented individuals, but mostly because actually putting it into the game is harder and more time consuming and that's the reason SpaceAlex never finished.
