Hey all. This mod had been dead for a while, but it's been revived and I am going to release it in parts, the first of which will be uploading in the next few weeks. Updates have been posted over at Holowan Laboratories but stay tuned here as well.

I'm really sorry for how long this has taken, which I never expected myself.

1. I don't have an active one right now but it may be up again soon.
2. No, there will be no compatible issues whatsoever.

Sorry guys, I would've had stuff released already but things didn't go as planned to say the least - my father went into cardiac arrest and had to have major surgery. So I've been out of it for a while but I'm back to work now and starting to make some good progress again. Hope to have something to show you all soon.

Anyone here played Mass Effect 2? That's kind of what I'm aiming to make the game more like.

As far as I know there's nothing to restore aside from what TSLRCM has done, so probably not, but there will be some completely new content added.

Yes, this is something like what I'm going to be doing.

Hey I'm really sorry to leave you all guys in the dark for so long. I should have said something but I was waiting hoping I'd have some good news to share. Just here to say that some major news is coming up soon.

And a release! ...kind of. I've been extremely busy with several projects (mostly SW fanfilms), so I'll be honest now and say TSLMIM as you know it is not nearly complete. I've made some major changes to the mod to say the least but for the better I think. I'm sorry if I'm going to disappoint because of the wait, but be assured starting the mod has never been dead and in the next few weeks I will be starting to release a lot of stuff.

I appreciate that anyone still shows interest in this mod. You can follow me for updates on Twitter at @ABDrewton.

Thanks very much for the offer; the biggest thing I'd need help with, though, would be UV-mapping, and if you'd be new to modding that's hard to learn. I might just try learning it myself.

I made predictions, which were completely unrealistic and turned out to be wrong. I have never been absolutely certain of a release date and haven't said that I have as of yet. And it really does take a long time reskinning everything - I want to make sure everything's perfect, I don't want to rush anything, and I don't want to make a second version of this because the first one was a disappointment. Also, as I said below, I've needed help with this but haven't been able to get any.

If you want to give up on this, then that's fine. But it's still going to be released, and I'd bet that you'll still download it when that happens. I'm not going to be making any more release date predictions until I'm absolutely sure - and when I am absolutely sure, it won't be just a prediction.

I know I've taken a while with this, just don't assume it is never going to be done. It really is hard work.

Also, if there is another post saying anything disrespectful like "shut your mouth" or calling someone brainless, then it will be deleted.

Sorry, no. I've been trying to get help with this for a while now but no luck yet.

Good to hear, seeing some Mass Effect screenshots was actually exactly what inspired this.

Thanks, glad that you like them. I'm aiming for a certain release date, but I don't want to make any "official" predictions right now until much closer to completion, because I've already made two failed predictions.

There's a patch that you can easily download to get it to work for Vista; just Google it and it will come up. Not completely sure if installing mods is the same for it, but I assume it is. One of my family members actually just got Vista yesterday which will hopefully be better for recording TSLMIM videos with. The computer I've been working with to make this mod is about six years old...

Thanks!

Yes, it will still be finished.

Thanks. Yeah, it's just my computer and Fraps, which I'm using to record.

Well, I want to change the keymapping so that the controls will be more like Jedi Academy (like left-click = lightsaber attack and L = Force lightning), as well as a first-person view for when using blasters, but I don't know if those are possible or not.

I'm not edited any dialogue files or scripts because I want it to be compatible with all other content mods.

It also will edit the HUD, sound effects, music, visual effects, lightsaber hilts, and menus. None of these were featured in the new video.

Thanks everyone.

Halfmoon: If I remember correctly, you can only replace lightsaber colours, not just add them. But I still might replace a usually-unused character with TFU black.

I will be improving all the lightsaber effects, though.

Sorry, I changed the date because I had to. There way no way I was going to be finishing it by tomorrow. I *might* still finish it this month, the new predicted release *could* be later than what the date will actually be, I just don't want to, like, predict for next week and have another delay, making people think this will never come out.

I'm taking as much as my free time right now as I can so that people will be able to play this summer.

Some good news: I'm uploading a production video to YouTube as we speak.

Sorry I deleted someone's comment about the compatability of the mod...I was just trying to delete one post of a double-post and it ended up deleting both.

This will actually hopefully be compatible with TSLRP. This mod mostly edits textures and sounds; TSLRP restores story content. This will not be compatible with any mods that edit (alraedy existing) textures.

Thanks to all who have commented!

UKcharlie: I'm not completely sure but I'm still hoping for that release date or sometime around then.

I'll be uploading an HD YouTube video within the next few days of the Peragus communications center. Also, I've been doing much more than Peragus, I just don't want to show much else right now.
