File Description
When we watch the original Star Wars Trilogy, the one of the things you won’t forget is the Stormtrooper uniform. What if you had the chance to use the Stormtrooper armor and helmet to wear with your characters? How about having the Sith Soldiers where the Stormtrooper armor? Prime brings this for the original Knights of the Old Republic game.
With the help of Hapslash for the model originally used for Jedi Academy and textures, Bneezy for helping with importing Hapslash’s head model into the game, and other members of Holowan Labs and their help and advice (credits in the readme portion), Prime makes it possible for us to be like or have your enemies be like Stormtroopers. I really love have this turned out and I must say that I know many people will be happy with having the feel of the Star Wars movies in their KOTOR game.
The game uses appearance.2da and heads.2da file portions. If you are using those particular files, you will need to do some editing in order to make this compatible with your other mods. Enjoy the mod! :D
Note: Please leave the author feedback, especially if you download this mod and use it. It really helps encourage the author to make more mods in the future.

KOTOR Imperial Stormtrooper Mod =============================== Version: 1.1 Skinner: Prime Importer: Bneezy Description: ------------ This mod adds Imperial stormtroopers to Knights of the Old Republic. There are two options for altering the game. Either or both options can be used as one time. OPTION 1: Player Wearable Stormtrooper Armour ******** This adds stormtrooper armour that is wearable by players and party NPCs. The mod includes both the body armour suit and a helmet, and they can be equiped independently of each other. Along with altering the characters appearance, the stormtrooper armour provides the following bonuses to the player characters: Body Armour: Defense +10 Max Dexterity Bonus +0 Limited environmental protection Helmet: Awareness +2 Files for Option 1: PMBH15.tga - texture for the stormtrooper armour suit helmet.tga - texture for the stormtrooper helmet ia_class9_015.tga - inventorty icon for the armour suit ii_mask_099.tga - inventory icon for the helmet i_mask_099.mdl - helmet model mdl file i_mask_099.mdx - helmet model mdx file helmet.txi - texture reflectiveness specification storm_armour.uti - armour suit parameters and specifications storm_helmet.uti - helmet parameters and specifications lev40_armlock001.utp - item placement to add new equipment to the game as "treasure" OPTION 2: Sith Trooper Replacement ******** This replaces all the Sith troopers (the guys with the shiny metalic armour) with Imperial stormtroopers. All other features and behaviors of the Sith troopers will remain the same, with only their appearance altered. This also alters the Sith disquise as well. Files for Option 2: PMBH01.tga - texture for the stormtrooper armour suit helmet.tga - texture for the stormtrooper helmet (this is the same file as for Option 1) STHA04.mdl - helmet model mdl file STHA04.mdx - helmet model mdx file heads.2da - adds the helmet as a new head for the Sith troopers appearance.2da - adds the armour for the Sith troopers to wear Installation: ------------- OPTION 1: 1. Extract all the files listed under Option 1 above into the Override folder in the Knights of the Old Republic directory. This allows the armour to be found during the course of the game. 2. Using the "giveitem" cheat command (OPTIONAL!) This method will add the armour and helmet to the player character's inventory. To enable cheats, in your game directory edit swkotor.ini and under [Game Options] add EnableCheats=1. Start the game then when playing press ' to bring down the console prompt, which appears as a ">" in the upper left corner. At the console prompt, type "giveitem storm_armour" to add the armour suit to the inventory. To add the helmet, type "giveitem storm_helmet". These can then be equiped by the player from the inventory screen. OPTION 2: Extract all the files listed under Option 2 above into the Override folder in the Knights of the Old Republic directory. Note that the helmet.tga file is the same for both options. The Sith troopers will automatically be replaced. OPTION 1 & OPTION 2: Extract all the files into the Override folder in the Knights of the Old Republic directory. The player wearable armour can still be added using the cheat commands explained above. Uninstalling ------------ Simply remove the files from the Override directory. Known Issues: ------------- Version 1.1 fixes the issue of certain Sith troopers on the Star Forge not having an armour texture. It also fixes the issue of the Jedi Nemo having a faulty robe texture. When the Sith troopers are replaced with the stormtroopers, they loose their head animations. The result is their necks appear "stiff". This shouldn't be too noticable though. If you use the Sith trooper replacement option, one of the heavy armour skins will be replaced by the stormtrooper skin. If you encounter other issues, please report them to the email address specified above. We will do what we can to correct them. NOTE: if you already have a modified appearance.2da or heads.2da file in your Override directory, DO NOT replace those with the versions included in this mod. This will have undesirable affects on the other mods. You will have to choose which mod you want to use.
