📋 About This Mod

This mod is a simple passion project. After I had created this mod for personal use, I decided it would be right to upload it to the Nexus. It includes multiple .pak, .ucas, and .utoc files, all of which contribute to a portion of the complete project. To install, you will need to extract the pak, ucas, and utoc files into Mortal Kombat 1/MK12/Content/Paks with no ~mods folder whatsoever. It also requires the "Allow Unsigned UTOC UCAS and PAK Mod Loading" mod, which can also be found on the MK1 Nexus page.

Update- I have uploaded an optional file that makes General Shao's armor a little brighter so that the details are more visible. It can be found in the "optional files" section. When you extract this to the Paks folder, it should overwrite the already existing .pak, .ucas, and .utoc files. Also, I have added a retexture that makes Shao's skin red in his Order of Darkness skin. Once again, this is found in "optional files" and simply needs to be extracted to the Paks folder. It should not overwrite any other files.
