- Movie-Style Lightsaber Blades ---
--- ~A mod by DarthJacen -
- Version 2.0 --

--------------------------------------
!! This mods purpose is simply to create
movie-style lightsabers in SWG. It does
not change gameplay in any way.
UPDATE HISTORY: V1.0
V2.0 Changed the palatte to better reflect the named crystals to the movie-style version.
I used the palatte map created by Krayus, and then put in some added Lucasized touches
fitting with his blue, green, red, and occasional purple tradition started in the films
continued through the Clone Wars. Most of the characters from the films have the G-Cannon
blade. Others I had to guess at from a Lucas standpoint, but as I showed Krayus, my opinion
about Adi Gallia's lightsaber is the blue one seen in Jedi Starfighter and Episode II.
Info:
This mod changes both the core and saber pallettes to rememble the canonical lightsabers from the
films and TV Series, however, I do not claim that these blades are perfect in anyway. But, they
are at least good enough. If you are tired of the Expanded Universe telling George Lucas that
there are more than four lightsaber colors in the Star Wars Universe. This mod is for you.
This does not change the statistics from the lightsaber crystals in game it just recolor's them.
Also, it makes it impossible to tell exactly which lightsaber has which crystal in it like before,
which is more in line with the canonical Star Wars lore. You don't know what crystals are in another
Jedi/Sith's lightsaber because they are all unique.

Special Thanks to:
~ Myself, Zio who did the blade cores, for this ReadMe format.
George Lucas for without his persistance between 1973 and 1977 there would be no Star Wars or Star Wars
Galaxies.
