The mod has been up since I read the original comment, so lets move on from that and not take an excellent and most promising WIP off topic.

 

I'm using Photoshop. Pics are my own mostly (taken with my Canon 500D) and some are completed using filters (such as the structure texture on Dantooine), the sky shots are from various sources on the internet, they're heaviliy edited in PS though. To create seamless textures i use the offset function in photoshop, very useful..

 

Cool, they do look very good, I have played with the Skyboxes in the past, but was never overly happy with them. Partly as I always wanted to keep the theme the skyboxes had, for example the two moons in the Dantooine skybox in K1. Dantooine does look a lot better in the above screens keep up the excellent work! Of the two towers the left hand one looks better IMO, all your skyboxes look really good, as do the rock textures! Keep up the good work

The second grass texture blends in with the individual blades of grass. Or did you also skin the blades? Or did you skin both???

Jae Onasi: wow, i seriously didnt mean to upset anyone, the comment was not meant to be directed to the staff as some kind of criticism, it wasnt even meant to be taken very seriously. I should've put my usual " " afterwards but i really didnt think anyone would read into it that much.

 

As a modder i dont need to be lectured about spending my free time doing stuff for others for free. I've spent more time modding different games for the latest year than doing anyting else Again sorry, i didnt mean to offend anyone. I'm thankful for FileFront and i'm sure you're thankful to the contributors, so let's just drop it.

 

 

I'm also a first time user of this so i'm wondering how i edit mods i've already uploaded, i happened to misspell one of the droid textures (there's an extra "." in C_DrdProt02..tga, so this texture wont show up in-game).

 

jonathan7: glad you like it

 

Zhaboka: I've retextured both the ground and the grass mesh. There are a few different grass retextures (3 i think) in those posts hehe, i'm not sure which one i'll end up with, probably i'll include all 3.

You would have to release a patch, the mod downloads themselves can't be edited. Normally we catch errors like that, but I won't have KotOR 2 until I return to the UK (I work abroard) so couldn't test K2 mods.

gone

Absolutely beautiful, although I find it improbable that any sort of moss could grow and be green on such a planet as Korriban.

[N-5/Prudii]

Amazing! Are you planning on doing Dxun too?

[logan23]

WOW!!

 

Those are really nicely done =)

[νυrτ]

N-5/Prudii: Yes probably, i'm progressing with the textures as i play the game, for every new planet i'm coming to i'm retexturing it.

 

I removed the moss, i agree that it probably wouldnt grow there. Here's how it looks now

[Canderis]

Wow. Looks great. Can we expect a k1 version?

[LDR]

The rocks look so real! I have to learn how to skin like that!

[jonathan7]

ah ok... i was hoping it was like planetelderscrolls where you upload once and get it approved and then the user have full access to his files and to update etc. It's not something you're considering for FileFront to make it easier for your users (and yourselves)?

 

Unfortunately not and the K-Files staff have little say over such things which would effect the whole site.

 

 

Here's some progress with Korriban

 

Looks really good, out of interest have you done Peragus and Telos?

[Salzella]

Wow!! Those are absolutely gorgeous! Particularly love the lighting on Korriban, always thought TSl suffered from some dull lighting. Lovely!

[.:Lord Revan:.]

Man everthing is just amazing.

[Xarwarz]

Nice dude it has a very eroded look to it one thing that this level suffers from is repeated patterns makes it difficult to find the right rock pattern for the hills

[Zhaboka]

Yeah, that's perfectly beautiful. Amazing work! You're quite efficient.

[Jaevyn]

WOW! That is all I can say about that, a stirling job. When do you expect to release it?

[νυrτ]

Thanks for your comments!

 

jonathan7: i havent done those places no, i probably will but can't promise anything.

 

Jaevyn: no idea, sorry. i will probably split it up so the first releases shouldnt be too far off.

 

Been a bit lazy today, but i've started to retexture the Ebon Hawk (which was way too low res for my taste )..

 

[Jaevyn]

Superb picturing. Keep up the supreme work you are doing. I wait in anticipation for its release.

[Darth Elessar]

Didn't notice how low-res the Ebon Hawk was until I saw that pic. Good job!

[Rinku]

Same.

 

Very nice job I cannot wait until you have reskinned the whole game .

[LDR]

Rinku, don't strain the poor kid's talents. That is absolutely gorgeous. Never realized how low-res the Ebon Hawk was.

[Zhaboka]

Wow! I actually knew it was that low-res, but all the retextures I'd seen were too ornate and flashy. This is perfect!

Oh. I'm looking forward to having this in-game.
