Update: Added alternate fire and lightning effects (with new colors).
Update: Added alternate drain and additional changes to alternate lightning effects (chromatic aberration) as well as adding a joke rainbow lightning.

---------------------------------------
Check for additional updates as it's likely that I'll add more styles as time goes on and perhaps might be able to modify the textures to make them animated.






















A preview of most textures is included as a PNG in the extracted folder.


There's a lot to love about KOTOR 2: Great stories, fun characters, and vivid colors in combat.
If you're looking to expand your KOTOR 2 experience, this texture pack might be just what you're looking for. From stealth effects to fire, lightning, ice, poison, drain, explosions, and more, you'll immediately notice a difference. Whether your party is heavily armed droids or newly apprenticed Jedi fighting to save what remains of the dying republic.





Approximate size of folder: 32 MB

Targa (TGA) files are the ones to be dropped into your KOTOR 2 override folder.




HOW TO INSTALL:


Simply drag the .tga files into your Override folder in the KOTOR II Install directory.

COMPATIBILITY:

Should be compatible with any mod, but will replace any textures like fire, ice, electricity, etc.


To see what files will be replaced, navigate to override, and all effects textures will begin with "fx_" prefix. (i.e. fx_Baodur.tga). You can make a copy of whatever fx textures you currently have and save them to a backup folder if you so choose.


REPLACES:

Beam Effects
Drain
Lightning
Poison
Fire
Ice
Plasma
Fury FX
Conjure FX
Flares
Goo
BaoDur's Arm
Stealth
Some smoke effects
Changes blaster bolts
to look more like the tangly energy bolts of The Force Awakens.

(Though this is pretty unnoticeable unless you get your nose right up to the screen.)

BUGS:

Zero that I know of. If you do have any, report them. I'll do my best to fix it. But chances are if you have a bug, the problem is on your end.

We stand on the shoulders of giants. These are the guys who made great texture packs possible. Salute.
Much of the work I did was before I found out about KOTOR Tools. So, I didn't make a patcher yet.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I changed the name of the effects in the alternate folder. So now all you have to do is drag and drop for the most part. I didn't want to make an alternate folder for each color of lightning. So for the convenience of you and I, all you have to do is rename whichever color you'd prefer to 'Fx_Lightning'


The replaced textures are the conjure fx. Lightning is darker (my preference) and so is less obvious in combat.
The dark conjure fx (drain, death field etc) is made brighter and stands out more to match the new beautiful drain.
