Texture/model enhancement
- Mysteries of the Sith Enhanced replaces many models and textures with more detailed ones. Requires the Unofficial Patch.
Instructions |
---|
- LOD Mod prevents NPCs and textures being scaled down in quality as you move away, which is very noticeable when playing in high resolutions. This is recommended regardless of whether you're using the above graphics mod.

Notes
- This mod requires that you start a new game and prevents old save games from being loaded, as it replaces all of the level files.
HUD/GUI mod
- The normal HUD is too small at high resolutions. The JK HUD revamp mod replaces the default GUI and HUD elements with larger, higher resolution alternatives.
-
jkhud.zip
affects the health and ammo readouts, andjkgui.zip
the force power and item icons.
