About this mod
Make Dantooine a more enjoyable experience with new weapons, combat, npcs and few area overhauls.
- Permissions and credits
I introduce you to my Dantooine combat and areas overhaul for a more difficult and exciting experience. I am sure some of you like how combat heavy Kotor 2 TSL felt, and my mod is an attempt at giving Kotor 1 combats more time to shine.

Requirements :
I strongly suggest you install these 2 mods first :
Mandalorian blades
High quality blaster
Mandalorian npcs will use the mandalorian blades. So if you dont install it they will stick to blasters.
My ranged weapons use the weapon models from the High quality mod, so download the high quality blasters first.
Additional mods that i made :
More enemies on Endar Spire
More Enemies on Taris
Weapon damages overhaul
More enemies on Endar Spire and Taris are the same thing, but for the first encounters of the game, also buffs a lot of basic items.
My weapons balance modifications go even further with my weapon damages overhaul, bringing way more viability to ranged weapons especially, if you wish to experience it fully as i intended it.
Compatibilities :
This mod is compatible with K1CP or other visual mods, but not K1R. However it may be incompatible with any mod that alter the Dantooine scripts, placeables or characters, as my files will override any other files. Hopefully, i will work on a compatible version later, but i am not working on it at the moment.
Installation :
Keep in mind that my mod should be likely installed at very last compared to other mods, because it replaces numerous Dantooine files to make everything
works. If you install it first, and then have mods that modifies the Dantooine files, it might cause a lot of troubles i cannot expect, it might also work just fine but it really depends on the mods.
1 single patcher will now be available : You have to run each part of the overhaul. Run them by the order displayed, it is a bit tedious but it is required to make everything work fine.
IF YOU ENCOUNTER ANY PROBLEMS : Please reach to me here so i can fix stuff, this is the first version of the mod.
FUTURE BUILD :
The mod for Dantooine will not receive any update. My aim for the mod has changed, and i want it to be a full release as a complete standalone mod, covering the entire game, this is also necessary due to new items or appearances i will introduce.
This work is taking time, and will not release until some years from now. Until the complete work is done, the mod still remains here.
