USER INTERFACE COMEBACK:

That's right folks, the Peneke dudes missed having awesome features like the Music menu, Authentic Hilts, and network optimization,
so we took the time to add those menus back as their own UI preset in UI Layouts! There's a lot to explain about this UI update,
so we'll talk about the main menu updates first!

The main menu now has a new Mandalorian show themed background, and we removed the character preview so that you can have more room
to view the nice backgrounds featured in the other menus! For nostalgic purposes, we've readded a few old but gold to the Peneke family
menu backgrounds featured in Peneke Pack versions of old. The Kylo Ren cursor has also returned!

Next up to be featured is the Music Menu overhaul! We too missed being able to select whatever music you want during rounds, so we decided
to completely re-do the menus from the ground up, now the music is organized into six tabs; Official for official MB2 map music,
CMP for community map pack music, MGMP for movie game mappack music, uMad for uMad mappack music, Peneke for music that suits
our and hopefully your tastes too, and the Custom music tab! The peneke music easter egg is also featured somewhere in these menus,
so all of our users can have fun finding it again!

How does the custom music feature work? Well this is the ability for you to add your own music to play in-game! To make use of it,
make a new folder in your MBII mod folder named "music" without the quotations. Then add an mp3 or wav file of your choice,
preferrably mp3 format, into the folder, with the name "usertheme#", with # being a number going from 1-50, meaning you can have
up to 50 custom music tracks in-game! The number you put in place of # with 1-50 will be the same number corresponding with the user track option in-game.
It needs to be noted that before doing so, make sure that the mp3 or wav is exported with the project rate at 44100 HZ, exported in Stereo,
that's the minimum requirement for making your music work in MBII.

Our next great UI comeback is the restoration of authentic hilts! This has been added into vanilla MB2 alongside the new class menus,
and the Peneke Jedi/Sith roster has been made compatible with this feature!

The last thing to mention is the optimize button, for all our users with network issues, we have restored the old Peneke network optimization menu,
which we've even done bonus fixes for to make the bounding boxes (the areas that you can click) properly scaled with the options so that you aren't
selecting options from seemingly invisible spaces anymore.


I can't stress this enough, make sure to remove older versions of the Penekepack or non-official Peneke Addons before updating, if you don't do that, you'll experience crashes and different kind of bugs!

----------------------------------------------------------------​
Hi, Penekowski speaking!

Because of the assistance, teachings, and feedback that I have received from Vitez, JamyzGenius, my Peneke folks and the Jkhub community, I'm now able to publish my first replacement pack, the Penekepack. A pack that, in my humble opinion, has the best of every single mod available plus a bunch of new content that was heavily customized by me.

I brought back things that I liked from the Old school MBII, better versions of existing models, new Icons, new RGB models, new hilts, a bunch of new content, new menu, new cursor, and overall a whole new and improved look for an average replacement pack.

I have included credits for every single person that helped me on this project, and of course, there's a list of all of the authors for every single model, hilt, asset or soundpack that this pack has. In other words, here's some of the stuff that our pack entails:

- New Hilts
- New Peneke UI: Optimization Menu, Authentic Lightsaber button, Music Menu
- New effects
- New Force Icons
- New Loading Screens
- New Console
- As of 2.6 : 173 New models, all of them have their custom icons and sounds, and some of them have their own RGB system

Without further ado, here's the Icon table for the pack, as well as screens from some of the models in game/artwork, the new menu and a showcase table for the hilts as well.

Enjoy it and please remember that all of the credits are inside the .rar file, along with the installation instructions and a few more notes!

And a really special thanks to Vitez, the creator of the H.B Pack, KoyMcCloud because I took some inspiration from his style to make my own icons during early versions, JamyzGenius, Rooxon & Kualan for their unlimited patience to help me out with the optimization and improvement of my pack, Peneke Tesla, SirCrusher, k4far, Shenghai for soundpack contributions, Swagmaster for helping out a great deal with the latest content of the pack, not only with constant feedback and content, but also for his willingness to learn new stuff just to improve the pack to a whole different level, kalamaray for the new saber clash effect, and last but not least Jkhub because I got so much content from that website and got to meet great people in there and many more!

Optional Hilt Replacements:

To use these, install it the same way as vanilla Peneke Pack, drag and drop "z_zz_PNK_Hilts" from the Bonus folder inside the current version's RAR into your MBII folder.
Majority of these are made by Rooxon. Starkiller Hilts & Kota Hilt skin replacement by Doughnuts.

Dear Penekowski ,
I've tried to do that with my friend's pack but I launched onto the game discovering that neither the blade effects or the pack were functioning (I turned the pk3 into a zip , unpacked it , modified it , compressed it and then I put it into the MB2 folder) but I'll try to find a way to do so.
Regards ,
Starkiller

Dear Penowski ,
My awesome friend did it ! Couldn't be happier with your mod !!!!!!! Love the hooded starkiller btw
Regards ,
STARKILLZOR

@Starkiller I'm glad that you managed to fix it, enjoy it, do you mind if you share the steps of what your friend did? I'm quite Curious
@Aizencin Thanks for the bug report, I'll try to speak with my friend Vitez and see what we can do about it. Regarding the Starkiller with the Pilot outfit I think? That's being replaced by the white Jaden, along with the black Jaden. But in order to bring the original Starkillers back you'd have to remove the folder called Jedi_hm in your penekepack. It should work. Though I cannot guarantee that it might cause some bugs here and there.

Once again, thanks for the comments. We are looking forward to get more of your feedback! I'm currently working on the next version.

Thank you so much for the new skins and tool prettiness :) I have taken apart this skin pack and mixed it into my own skin pack that I personally use (The Ultimate Skin Pack! in my opinion) If anyone would also like to use the pack that I built to be a mixture of this: The best Skin Replacement Pack so far, as well as many other fantastic Skins and sound additions that I have painstakingly battled with to put together and make work properly in one rather large skin replacement pack... PM me if you are interested. ;)

Well, as long as you properly credit all of the people that worked into it and it has some variety instead of having the entire same pack plus 2 more new models it should be fine!

Good luck.

You don't delete the models folder, you go into it and delete player but leave in sabers

Just a small suggestion, would it be in any way possible to change Vaylin's replacement character from Tavion? I feel with this pack installed (without my tinkering) really reduces the female Jedi/Sith character choice with more known male characters. Now personally, this is no issue. I have been loving the Starkiller and Arkan replacements. They are my new preferred skins to play as :p But again, even Starkiller replaces Asajj Ventress, another female fan favorite. Now I know you are restricted by the amount of available MBII character slots there are currently available to replace. Just a suggestion.

It would be unfortunate if you are trying to live off Penekowski's good work due to your own replacement getting rejected. I want to believe that you aren't that kind of person. You would never steal someone else's work...amiright?

gr8 m8 r8 8/8
But i have a suggestion, and is to remove bindo or that bald jedi with white clothes for add ahsoka back
(and this is not a suggestion, but the thing is, why do we have anakin ep 3 hil and rey ep 7 hilt? they are exaclty the same, i think that you can change one to put a better nice hilt ;))

BUG REPORT - I think that there is a bug with white skin Jaden, his right arm is a stormtrooper arm

Hey, yeah I can't remove Bindo, I have received some good feedback for that character and he's here to stay. Regarding the Rey hilt, it seems pretty pointless at first glance, but the only difference is that whenever you turn it on, it has a different sound. that's all I could notice. And well, don't worry about the hilts, I'm planning to add more. The bald jedi is Vrook, and he shares the GLM with the generic sith on the other end, therefore I'm with my hands tied on that matter. However, if you want to bring Ahsoka back, just go to models/players and remove the ahsoka folder, that should get rid of Kanan, the model that replaces Ahsoka.

Regarding your bug report, that's not a bug, it's intended, it's just how the author wanted to design him and I like it. Tho i'm planning to improve it by putting the arm of Toshi's upgraded stormtrooper.

I'll see what I can do, I don't like the actual Ahsoka so much because her taunts used to drive me nuts, but I'll try!
