Fixed Lightsaber Colors (#1)

Description
Just a quick update: since nobody cared about the one with less glow, I re-uploaded it as an alternative to this one. Changed up a few things, silver's actually silver and not white now, gold is gold/bronze and not orange, blah blah blah, it's in my workshop.

READ: No compatibility problems. There are none, there can be none. It's just a simple texture mod. If it DOES indeed happen that your game doesn't work, it's probably because Steam can't handle being subscribed to too many mods. Try uninstalling one or two that you're not using, bam, it should work. Should that fail, there are problems that are not caused by my mod. Also, no black-core lightsabers, there are shading issues, it won't work, it'll look off and horrible and just NO.

READ #2: For those of you who want to bug the hell outta me and claim that "my purple lightsaber is not purple but blue": http://hellogiggles.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/08/purple-suede.jpg - this is purple. The hexadecimal value of the one I used is roughly #6900D6. Give me a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ break. I'll be deleting ANY comments saying nothing but "This isn't purple, ermahgerd." Thank you for your understanding.

Description:
A simple mod that changes the colors of the lightsabers in the game. I always thought they were a bit off, some less, some more. Weird flickering qualities, core beam changing its size, inconsistencies throughout the lightsabers, etc.

Thus I made a few changes throughout the lightsabers, fixing the.. well, whatever could be fixed. I'm very well aware that there are going to be people who don't like certain colors. My advice is: copy the files of the lightsabers you like (override/w_lsabre[color-you-like]), unsubscribe and put them back.. or download the Kotor Mod Tool and make your own. It ain't hard.

PS: that weird property of the blue, red, green and yellow lightsabers that causes them to look thinner from behind and much thicker from the front; I don't know how to fix that. I tried tweaking the models, but I failed horribly. It's the models, or the shaders or I don't know, but there's nothing I can do about it. Apologies.

If anything, the hate over purple is that it went less Mace Windu & more "party palace" of a hue.
If there's hate, it's because people prefer the *violet colour over actual purple itself, least in my opinion.

"This isn't purple, ermahgerd." and the original colors look better anyway. ohh and before you say something dumb like "why are you using it." don't worry i'm not, I just thought you sounded like a jerk from your description.

Someone seems to have had a little breakdown over their non purple lightsabers.

I agree @yoda Gaming, as a colourblind person as well i also see blue and purple being the same, when will you add colorblind friendly mode?
