RECOMMENDED MOD BUILD

HOW TO INSTALL:

Just drop .tga files into Override folder in your Knights of the Old Republic II directory.

Difference between TGA and TPC versions:

Basically, TGA are uncompressed texture files while TPC are compressed. But compressed doesn't mean worse, they look identical to TGA files while being way smaller and offering better performance. By default all KOTOR textures are in TPC format which BioWare made specifically for their games. Also if you have TGA and TPC files with identical names in your Override folder, TPC files always take priority, so keep that in mind if you use many texture mods.

For compatibility patches:

Install in that order: UCO -> -> Compatibility patch (Overwrite if asked).

If you are using TGA version of UCO, simply install the patch and overwrite when asked.

If you are using TPC version, you may have to delete duplicate TPC files. You can have two version of the same texture in TGA and TPC formats in your Override folder, however TPC always takes priority. So if you are using TPC version of UCO it will null all TGA character mods you have installed. So you have to delete TPC files that share names with TGA files for them to work properly. You can use Remove Duplicate TGA-TPC.

Also keep in mind that not using compatibility patch won't break your game in any way, all they do is improve mod texture quality to be on par with UCO.
