Fix for Lightsaber texture in existing mod

[Untold Prophecy]

I found a pretty good looking model of Luke's ROTJ saber on Game Banana, but in game the texture looks broken (very gray with a lot of pixelation).

Would someone be able to take a look to see if they can get the texture to function as it's supposed to in the screenshot I'm attaching? In addition, if you might be able to add the triangle ring onto the pommel like the actual prop, I would really appreciate it!

It's not bad but I still think the one I included in this pack from Revan Dark is superior to all others out there.

Otherwise you are probably better off messaging the author of that model directly on Game Banana to see if they can fix it.

I definitely like the look of this one.

Only issue is that it renders everything black on the hilt. Do you have a fix for that?

 

EDIT:
I got the colors to render correctly, however the hilt still seems off in game. Almost like a shader is missing? Any idea what might be up?

So I played around with the textures myself (ran things through AI upscale and tweaked the color and lighting) but I still have an issue where the model looks very stenciled and rough. Not sure what the issue is as the other ones in this pack look okay. Are there any fixes or anything you might be able to do for me, @Circa?

Can you provide a screenshot? I'm not sure what you mean by stenciled, they load fine for me

Let me see what I can do. I'm having issues getting the Steam overlay to work with JKA, but I can see if I can get a work around.

Okay! I managed to get my snipping tool to give me the results needed.

"Stenciled" might not be the right word choice on a revisit. The textures don't reflect light very well both in game and in the saber selection screen. Textures look flat and almost like bad 90s CGI. The other sabers in this pack look clean and metallic, unlike Luke's.  So I know that it's not an issue of a 12 year old mod pack.

Here are two more screenshots from in-game. Light just doesn't seem to properly affect the hilt.

See if the original one works better, this is where I pulled it from:

A few more I got better showing the issue in game. The last one almost looks correct, but seems to have some issues on the silver.

Blacked out textures on that one. I removed Plasma's sabers from my Base folder too to be sure, but it still occurs.
