- Replaced Jedi Hunter Starkiller's soundset with SCIV version

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 2.4 : 192 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!

Icon tables:

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.

My friend simply remoed your sabers folder and put the one from the pack I used to use in :) My friend can't do that for every update tho so I'd be glad if you could put in new saber blades soon :D

Well I still Have some slots available to replace for the hilts, I'm actually adding something that the people that like Staff might like. But feel free to PM me with any hilts that you'd like to see in the future.

This is awesome! Gj

Shame you replaced Ahsoka tho :/
. 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.
Does this bring back her hilt too?

Her hilt has always been there, it never got replaced. In the next version, she'll be back on her default slot. I'm currently working on it :)

Thanks for the feedback, glad that you're enjoying the pack!

I'll look into it, echo's armor looks pretty similar to Fives's tho. I'll see what I can do about it, and regarding Maul, that's out of my reach for the time being, I'll see if I can get someone who can fix it for me.

I suspect that there is a particular player model that may be causing the crash. If you find out what it is, you should post it so it can get corrected.

Uhm, there was a crash whenever you selected Jolee back when 1.1 got uploaded but I uploaded a hotfix pretty quick, try re downloading it maybe? So far I haven't received any crash reports but I know that there's a weird crash, just on Lunarbase, I don't know which model is causing it but other than that it's completely stable in every single map.

That Jolee I made is a simple HS Anakin reskin... unless the files are corrupted, or there are some other modifications, it shouldnt crash the game.

there might be too many polygons ingame i replaced a hilt once it crashed my game and i had that error it could be one of the saber hilts this is my best guess since i do some modding at times and replacing have a look at some models u put in the pack

Yeah, I assumed that too. I'll see what I can do about it. In the mean time, just try not to use the pack when playing in Lunarbase, because that's the only map that causes crashes. It should be ok with the rest.

Its the Quinlan Vos model. It has too much polys and it can crash the game if its used with high poly lightsabers. I suggest to remove Quinlan Vos, it should fix your problem.

Thanks for the comments!

@ Starkiler let me know if this works.

Open up your Peneke's pack PK3 and get into gfx/effects/sabers and remove everything that's inside. Once you do that, open up your Episode 3 blades pk3 and put all of the content that's inside it's gfx/effects/sabers into your penekepack's gfx/effect/sabers. It should work, I think so, I recommend Winrar or Pakscape to do that, though I would prefer Winrar.
In your music menu screen is says placeholder a couple times, does that mean we can add some music and if so how?

Thanks for the feedback, glad that you're enjoying the pack!

I'll look into it, echo's armor looks pretty similar to Fives's tho. I'll see what I can do about it, and regarding Maul, that's out of my reach for the time being, I'll see if I can get someone who can fix it for me.
thanks. by the way, i was thinking about taking the Yavin 4 luke sniper model and turning it into a jedi character, how would i extract the model from the pack?
