How to get high quality lightsabers

The following mod not only adds reflective blades (the color will shine on characters, walls, etc), but adds far better hilts than the method I wrote below. It is highly recommended just to use this one mod for lightsabers (this applies to KOTOR 2 as well).

KOTOR 2: https://deadlystream.com/files/file/1847-new_lightsaber_blade_model_tsl/

(For previews just look at the mod page's screenshots)

WARNING: THIS METHOD AND THE FOLLOWING SCREENSHOTS ARE OUTDATED! You can still use this method, but the mod above provides much better hilts and reflective blades, all in one mod package.

We will get 3 mods that will redo parts of the lightsaber to make a better whole.

This mod will make the lightsabers high poly: Link[deadlystream.com]

This mod will make the lightsaber's textures better: Link[deadlystream.com]

Last but not least, this mod will improve the blades: Link[deadlystream.com]

Install the High Poly mod first, then the texture mod, and then the blade one last. Override in that order.
