AUTHOR: Selphadur

NAME: Selphadur's Kotor Texture Redux

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

MAIN FILENAME: Selphadur's Kotor Texture Redux v1. 1 Standalone

INITIAL DATE RELEASED: 2019-09-11

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

DESCRIPTION:

Changes vanilla textures to 4x AI upscaled with hand made improvements.

Why use my mod instead some other mod?

Because in this mod almost all game textures are upscaled.

Most of them are tweaked by hand (cleaned and improved).

All alpha channels in textures were checked and copied to new textures.

In the final (v1. 0) release almost all game textures (all except GUI, icons, effects and etc. which have problems when extracted or have no benefit from

upscaling whatsoever) are replaced with upgraded ones. Current version (v1. 1) has more than 2300 textures!

Give a fresh look for this beloved game with this all-in-one HD texture replacement!

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Backup C:\Steam\steamapps\common\swkotor\Override folder.

Extract contents of this archive to swkotor\Override folder (create

one if it does not exist).

HOW TO UPDATE:

Just overwrite old files with new files from new version in swkotor/Override

folder (only for 0. 8TGAOnly and up!).

Updating from v0. 8 is at your own risk (it uses .tpc files, which are glitchy). Better download v0. 8TGAOnly and update from it (by adding new files from new versions)!

UNINSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

Delete mod files (easiest way is to overwrite files and then delete).

Best method I found so far to mitigate black lines and to combat antialiasing is to disable MSAA completely and use Reshade

SMAA + FXAA + Lumasharpen.

You could also use GLOveride, but it does not work well with FXAA.

Perform Nvidia Inspector SGSSAA tweak to minimaze visible texture

seams and improve image clarity and antialiasing by changing tese options:

Antialiasing - Mode: Override any application setting

Antialiasing - Setting: 8xQ

Antialiasing - Transperancy Supersampling: 8x Sparse Grid Supersampling

Texture Filtering - Driver Controled LOD Bias On

Texture Filtering - LOD Bias (DX) -0. 375 (-0. 125 for less texture shimmering)

Texture Filtering - LOD Bias (OGL) -0. 375 (-0. 1250 for less texture shimmering)

Texture Filtering - Negative LOD Bias Allo
