** I added the 'Light' attribute to the items (all) because in certain instances it has a very sweet visual effect in the game. For an example, just walk closer to certain placeables (ie-upgrade bench) and watch! Even better if you flourish your weapon. Has a light strobing effect (more realistic) for sabers, plus makes the Revan Robes shine much better. The effect is easily removed using Fred Tetra's Kotor Tool if it causes problems or game slow down.


=====================================

Installation: ++

++ There is also an included upcrystals.2da file. If you are currently using this type of file (other lightasaber mods), DO NOT OVERWRITE with this one. Some editing will be required. (instructions below)

1) Extract ALL files in the 'Override' folder to your KotOR override folder.
2) Extract all files from ONE of the folders in the 'Placeables' folder to your KotOR override folder. 3 options available:
-Taris Undercity - Sith corpse where you find the Rakghoul serum
-Taris Sith Base - Strongbox where you fight the Governor
-Dantooine Ruins - On Nemo

Be sure to read the datapads (in-game) for the explanations of why you found the items there ;)


-----------------------------------
Cheats:
At the console (cheats must be enabled) type:

giveitem g_w_lghtsbr25 - Revan's Lightsaber
giveitem g_w_dblsbr025 - Revan's Double-Bladed Lightsaber
giveitem revan_mod_robes - Revan's Robes



-----------------------------------
Manual .2da editing. Only necessary if using other mods that edit the upcrystals.2da

Using Fred Tetra's Kotor Tool or other .2da editor (see special thanks)

-open your existing upcrystals.2da in your Override folder

- Follow this diagram:

==========================================================================================

** I've also included a "crystal-edit-2da.jpg" so you know what you're going to see
