screenshots and download info at end of this post

From the Read Me

**EDIT**


UPDATE: vers: 1.3
-Fixed A problem with descriptions not showing for Crystal and Saber.
-Reskinned Hilt (still Playing with it tell me what you think)


The only Downside i see which isnt really a downside is that the only way for the fix to take is by using the giveitem cheat. if the saber is already in your inventory you can keep 2. or use the Kotor Save Game editor to remove i from your list and than use the cheat console to get the saber again. Sorry for the inconveneince.
If there is aneasier way to do this please enlighten me.

New Version OUT!!!

Very good job on this one, especially for your first mod, heck my first mod.... umm was a saber blade color change, and if this is your first model then you did a fantastic job. click click got mine :)

believe you me i had alot of help from seprithro , svцsh and achilless threads and just about everyone else... lol

took me 2 weeks to get this one together... but i think my next mod will hopefully come easier (wishful thinking i know lol :D )

It looks great. I think you also fullfilled a request for that saber from the request thread.

That a freaking cool saber!:eek:

(of topic) where can i get some info on exar kun:confused:

anyway keep it up

[edit] can u send me the mod i can't open up pcgamemods web site[edit]

Whoa!:eek:!
That's...whoosh, people are really making good stuff now!
This is...*Thinks for 8 seconds...*
Awesome!
Amazing!
A - - - something!
...Cool.

can u send me the mod i can't open up pcgamemods web site

If you get instafinder instead of pcgamemods, you've got spyware.

Looks good, I'll have to fire up kotor one more time to check it out.

just to note... if you Downloaded the Mod the New Color Crystal is specifically for the new hilt if you try putting the crystal in a standard saber most likely your game will crash.... i will upload a revised version of the mod Hopefully later tonight so the crystal can be supported by all sabers...


also if you want me to add some diff properties as well that you think would fit with this saber feel free to post your suggestions

looks great can't wait to play with it.

DV you can find info about Exar Kun at http://www.starwars.com/databank/character/exarkun/eu.html)

Yes, for PCGameMods, you just resubmit the .zip just like you posted the mod the first time.

Just put a new version in the version box (Ex: 1.0 becomes 1.1) and use an Identical title, and description to the previous version, with notations in the discription indicating a newer version.

I hope this helps! :D

it keeps telling me to change the filename

Of course, you should want to change the filename anyway so you know what version you are on at a glance.

Usually I name my zip files like RHWhateverMod1.zip then if I have to update it I name the next one RHWhateverMod1a.zip or RHWhateverMod2.zip then I know at a glance if I have made a new version or not. :D

PCGameMods won't let you update the file you have allready uploaded, so you have to give it a different name, but not that different, hence why I use a 1 then 1a or 2 at the end of my zip filenames. The moderators at PCGameMods then will delete your previous version when they get to it. ;)

Change the file name to like 1.1 or something. The way it works right now is if you need to update then just upload the new version with the same name accept with the increasing version number. once you do this the old version will be deleted by an admin. Like me :)

Sergio is working on adding the ability for a user to edit there own files, but that will take some time.

o ok i didnt kno they delete the old .. hehe ok

New Update ... see first post
fixed a minor bug .. that the saber wasnt upgrading... all should be good now

Hey guys whats up. I know i been gone a long time. but i just broke out KOTOR I and i wanted to drop my saber in and after all this time i thought that PCgameMods was still up only to realize that its been dead. I was looking for my latest release of this Lightsaber and i cant seem to find it anywhere. i only have vers 1.0 but im looking for vers 1.2 backed up, so if anyone here has a copy please PM me .

i believe i have found the file i uploaded it here http://files.filefront.com/ExarKun+DblSaberv12zip/;13110626;/fileinfo.html)
