As my first publicly available mod for KotOR, I present you with my first lightsaber addon pack for Knights of the Old Republic!
Edit: Version 2 is now available!
What it does:
This mod will primarily add a few new color crystals for your lightsabers. It adds Cyan, which looks looks similar to Mantle of the Force, but is a little different, as well as non-unique. It also adds orange, viridian, bronze, silver, black, and white. Additionally, it will add a a new color exclusive to Bastila based on her concept art, using a fixed version of Gavroche's mod. The second major feature is replacing all the lightsaber textures with higher quality flickering ones, using Shem's Prequel Sabers 2.0 and Mono_Giganto's flickering blades mod as a base. A few side-features of this mod are making the yellow crystal more yellow, and changing the icons for blue and Heart of the Guardian sabers to better match the blade color.
Here are some pictures...

Wow, these are pretty good.
Are these compatible with any hilt replacement mods?
Hilts for these new sabers won't be affected, so as long as they simply replace standard colors, they shouldn't conflict. If you're wanting to use custom models with these colors, that will take a bit of modification on the user's end.
Version 2 is now available! Scroll up to the first post to find it!
Greatly anticipated, got it working and everything.
Just one minority for me.
When I go to Upgrade the Lightsaber with the new Crystal at a Workbench, it doesn't show up.
Any ideas on the problem??
Help appreciated. :)

What exactly doesn't show up? The crystal in the crystal selection menu?
Yes, at the Upgrade Lightsaber portion of the Workbench, the crystal's do not appear in the place in which you are able to change the Lightsaber Color.
But they do show up in my inventory.

That's very strange. Did the installer have any errors?
There was one minor warning...
I don't think it would effect the functionality, but here's the error.
"Warning: No install instructions (install_folder0) found for folder override."

=/
Maybe I screwed up when I set up the installer. I never actually tested it, and it's only my second time using it.
This is the only instance I've heard of this so far though. I'll test it myself in just a bit.
Edit: I just commandeered my brother's computer and tried installing it on that, and I got the same error. Reading the rest of the log, it sounds like it should have works fine, but I don't know. He kicked me off before I had a chance to actually test it. I'll try testing it tomorrow. Sorry about the inconvenience!
No, no, it's completely fine.
Everything is better with patience as Trek always says. Won him one of the small Mandalorian Battles during the Mandalorian War. (Fictional no less).

Having the same problem here, Thanks for looking into the problem Crixler :)
Ok, I've found the problems. Yup, plural. The error the installer gives I just fixed, although I don't think that one really made any difference. The second error is the one causing the problems. Somehow my changes.ini didn't grab all the changes for upcrystals.2da. It created all the new lines it was supposed to, but it didn't fill them with anything. About to fix...
Edit: Fixed! (

Thanks for taking the time to fix it! :)
I'm going to use it now. P:

Thanks this mod is great :)
It looks awsome! I wish my KotOR was working. :(
Yeah, this works great now!
I love the new variety of colors!

Hello all
I'm new here and new to KotOR and I apologize for reviving the dead here but I would really like to use this mod. Unfortunately I'm having the same issue others in this thread have mentioned and the link to the fixed version no longer works.
I don't suppose the mod author is still around?

Has not been here since February 2012.
Ah, bummer.
Well, maybe he's subscribed to this thread and an e-mail notification will bring him back. *hopelessly optimistic*
I wonder if there is an alternate link on where to get this wonderful mod now that megaupload wont work.
