JCarter brings a new sabre mod - this time adding more colours and modifying a couple of the existing ones. The new lightsabres come in cyan, gold, orange, pink, silver and viridian - the cyan and gold using the original yellow and Mantle of the Force colours respectively, while the original yellow sabre has been replaced with a more... yellow colour. You can get the new crystals from Suvam Tam on Yavin Station.
The mod is well put together, and the use of both Suvam's shop and the TSLPatcher are nice touches. However, the mod might have benefited from a clearer setup using the TSLPatcher, which at present is somewhat irregular, and also from having the crystals placed differently in the game, perhaps spread throughout it, as with the originals, though these are fairly minor gripes. Overall, a nice mod, which is worth a download.
NB: Please leave constructive criticism, particularly if you download and use this mod, as the download-counter isn't very informative.

****************************************************** Modification for Knights of the Old Republic ****************************************************** ****************************************************** JC'S SABER COLOR MOD FOR K1 ****************************************************** Author: JCarter426 Name: JC's Saber Color Mod for K1 Date: 08/02/08 Email: bbbrassilATgmailDOTcom CONTENTS 1. Description 2. Installation 3. Bugs 4. Compatibility Issues 5. File List 6. Thanks To... 7. Disclaimer ******************** 1. Description ******************** This mod adds six new lightsaber colors to KotOR I, and modifies most of the existing ones. The new colors are cyan, gold, orange, pink, silver, and viridian. The yellow now actually looks like yellow, while the gold blade uses the original "yellow" color. The Mantle of the Force color is now more of a silver-blue, and all the standard blades now have whiter cores. Suvam on the Yavin Station will sell the crystals. ******************** 2. Installation ******************** 1. Run the TSL Patcher. Make sure you select your SWKotOR folder, NOT your Override folder. 2. Copy everything in the ForOverride folder to your Override folder; if you don’t have one, make one. If you get a message asking you to rewrite, click cancel and follow the instructions under Compatibility Issues below; otherwise, you’re all set. To uninstall: remove the upcrystals.2da file from your Override folder, or replace it with a backup (I suggest you back up any .2da files before installing any mod, that way it’s easier to fix everything later). Then remove all the .tga, .txi, .uti, .utm, .mdl, and .mdx files used in this mod (I'll provide a list below). ******************** 3. Bugs ******************** None that I am aware of. There's something wrong with the blue saber, but I'm pretty sure it's not my fault. If you encounter any bugs, report them to me via email, or PM me at FFF or LF. ******************** 6. Compatibility Issues ******************** Wile I've used the TSL Patcher, there still might be some conflicts. It's really hit or miss, and if it isn't compatible with any particular mod, there's probably nothing I can do about it. If you're already using a mod that uses the Suvam .utm files, that's all right; just ignore those and install everything else. You can still get the crystals through the cheat console or savegame editor. ******************** 5.
