Effix 534 Posted October 23, 2020 View File Effixian's HK Metallic Skins ************************************** Knights of the Old Republic - The Sith Lords ************************************** TITLE: Effixian's HK Metallic Skins AUTHOR: Effix CONTACT: PM me on the forums or find me on Steam ************* INSTALLATION ************* 1. Unzip somewhere and run the file "TSLPatcher - Install TSL Effixians HK Metallic Skins.exe". This step is simply to enable the metallic shine. 2. Pick an appearance you like (See the Screenshots folder). Go into the Textures folder and into the subfolder of your liking. Copy the files in there to your override folder. The override folder is a subfolder in the game's main folder, you need to create it if you've never added a mod before. *************** STEAM VERSION *************** You can use this mod with the Steam version of the game, simply point the installer to the location of the game. If you're using the Steam version of TSLRCM (or the combo with M4-78) then you need to point the installer to its Workshop folder. This mod is not compatible with my HK-47 Steam mods if you do so, the textures in those mods don't work in combination with the metallic shine. ************ DESCRIPTION ************ This is pretty much a spin-off from my non metallic HK reskins. This mod enables a metallic shine for the HK droids. Next to that it gives various texture/portrait options to use with that change. To demonstrate different lighting conditions; the left part of the screenshots is inside the Ebon Hawk, the right side is on Dantooine, next to the Ebon Hawk. ************* HK-50 & HK-51 ************* Next to HK-47 this mod also makes HK-50 & HK-51 able to get the metallic shine. Like with HK-47, you need to do some manual work for the texture files part. You need to copy-rename-copy-paste texture files. HK-50's file should be: C_HK50.tga HK-51's file should be: C_HK51.tga So you pick a file (P_hk47_01.tga, the other one is a portrait and not needed) from the Textures folder of your choice, make a copy of it, rename it to C_HK50.tga and/or C_HK51.tga and move those file(s) to your override folder. ***** BUGS ***** None known. ************* UNINSTALLING ************* 1. Remove the following files from your override folder: P_hk47_01.tga PO_pHK47.tga 2. Optional: Removing the above files will give HK-47 back his original appearance, without metallic shine. If for some reason you also want to undo the changes that were made to appearance.2da, then you can run the Patcher from the Uninstaller folder. ******************* DISTRIBUTION NOTES ******************* You may NOT: Use the material from this mod in your own mod without giving me credit, implying it was your creation.
