You might want to add your mod to the KOTOR 2 mod list: http://www.shsforums...showtopic=13931

Done.

Here's my first modding attempt for kotor 2.

A Sith Lord Mask with unique cool attributes and stats (serious stats not anything that will make you impossible to beat and a Dark Jedi Robe reskin.

Here's the actual mod:

Install Notes and retrieval instructions are in the zip.

Hope you enjoy it.

I decided to follow up on that fmelae/male texture path and discovered that they have indeed made separate skins for female and male PC character. (though the textures are identical they have been given different names)

For an example:

Female Dark Jedi Robe: PFBI06.tpc
Male Dark Jedi Robe: PMBI06.tpc

I guess that's been cleared up then

I would however, like to know more about how to edit models, i mean i know how to model but i'm very uncertain of how i would be able to add stuff to a model regarding animations and such. I know with old Half-Life the animation sequences were compiled into the actual .mdl file but htat doesn't seem to be the case with kotor/kotor2.
I've been scanning the web for some tuts but it's really hard to find anything as most sites seems to have been taken down or something and LucasForums won't load for me..aaargh.

Does it work now?

Well, i can get new skins into the game but for some reason the new mask skin appears with no prblem on all chars that wears it (PC of course) while the robe only appears on the female PC characters.
Doesn't make any sense to me unless they have made separate skins for male and female robe textures, though that seems unlikely to me both in logic and since i can't find any more duplicates than that first robe i spoke of. I can only find one single version of the high res 'Dark Jedi Robe'.
Took me quite a while to find it as well.. lol.

Are there any charts anywhere that explains the file name structure so one doesn't have to scan trhough the thousends of files everytime? That would help alot.

Btw, can anyone get lucas forums to load? I dont know if it's my current web browser that stalls it, coz i a can't get it to load.. grrr.

Ok so i couldn't get the lucas forums to load for some reason, but i managed to extract a robe texture using Fred Tetra's kotor tool thingy machine.
What i don't quite understand is how i am supposed to import the texture back into the game again.

I read some guy's mod description and that said "create an 'override' folder in the kotor folder and place the .tga textures there". Well i tried that but it didn't work with my test subject. :glare:
Would anyone have any idea on how to do this?

*edit* Never mind, apparently there were 2 exactly alike textures, (same bit/res/size) and of course i used the wrong one, lol. That's my lot in life.
