Fallen Guardian Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I recently showed off some screenshots of enhanced blaster pistols using Captain Hair's blaster pistol model. The goal of this mod is to finish, in a sense, what Captain Hair started with the blasters and make all blaster pistols in both KotOR 1 and KotOR 2 of high quality. When reskinning for the blasters I attempted to match them as closely as possible to their default icons within the game. Anyway, without Captain Hair this mod wouldn't exist so a big thanks to him.

GeorgNihilus Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 I remember someone promising this for the beginning of June ... a texture for each weapon part eh?? well ... we'll see how my "half-end" rig deals with this (with all the other improved textures of my Override folder). is there even a minor size increase in the models mdx/mdl as well? I'll let u know how these amazing tweaks work on both TSL and Kotor. thanks alot on advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgNihilus Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 looking great in both games ... no noticable delay while playing (with my GeForce GT430 at least, 4 GB installed RAM). and yes, you might render the icons indeed ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
