Thanks to: 

-Kahn D'Halaine  (Textures, sounds, shaders, and the whole idea of modding effects)
-FxHome.com    (Textures)
-Fan-files.com    (Sounds)
- Jedi_Mediator, for some 'Inferno' textures. I especially liked his smoke texture.
-The author of BlocksClashes, an anonymous file on hosted.filefront.com. There was no readme and no author's name, so I can't give credit properly. But I guess the author's already forgotten about it, as he submitted it 4 years ago. Out of sight, out of mind, says us. 
-LucasArts for the excellent game I based this mod upon!

**************************************************************************************
Description: Many of the weapons now have effects like those in Republic Commando, and the sounds are 100% accurate as well (except when I couldn't find the original sound file). Comes with dozens of new textures, many of which are recycled from Kahn's mod; the others are either mine (I modified and combinded many old textures to get new ones) or I got them from fxhome or other websites. Also comes with new saber and lightning effects and sounds.

Blaster rifle: Heavy ACP Repeater gun sound and effects, higher rate of fire in SP.

Bowcaster: green-blueish bolt with faint yellow trail. 

Repeater: Primary: DC17 blaster fire
	 Secondary: Anti-Armor grenade

Demp2:    LJ-50 Concussion Rifle

Flechette: Primary: Made after the ACP array gun.
	 Secondary: Thermal detonater effect + sound 

Rocket: 	 Yellowish trail with brown smoke and a flare up front, like the Wookiee thing

Thermal:   see screenshot; 'realistic' whistle sound

Tripmine:  effect with a lot of brown dust and 15 chunks (which is hard for the processor)

Detpack:  see screenshot; the best effect of the pack in my opinion, it took only about 30 minutes to make.

Emplaced: see for yourself

Turret: much like the DC-17, with nice explosion.

Lightning: much longer bolts with smoke and sparks and light.

Saber:      Dozens of new sounds and cool effects (a little blood in case of dismemberment). New dismemberment texture as well.

I didn't touch the stunbaton, bryar and disruptor. If someone makes fitting weapon models, I might submit something for those weapons as well.
	  
*************************************
Compatibility: JK3 has a separate version, which will be out soon. If you want to be a beta tester, please email me at 
rubendoornenbal@solcon.nl. I'm having a little trouble with JK3's buggy engine (JK2 is more solid and has much better lighting options for effects).

Bugs: are there any?

Feedback:     Please email me if you know ways to improve this, or for anything else, but no spam.

Installation: Put the pk3 file in the base folder. To uninstall, remove it.
