With Jeck Jims' consent, an update to the v1 models for SRB2Kart is out!
The project herewithin was created in response to the v1.2 update, which despite updating several sprites lacks any sort of update to the models. I feel the models at this point have aged noticeably, and are worthy of a touch-up. The goal of this mission was to recreate the aesthetic of the sprites into model format, which entails modifying _blend files and the textures of a select few racers.
For a more detailed list of changes, consult the spoiler:
To use these blend files, extract the contents of the zip file into a new folder, then copy and paste the contents into your KAPL folder in the mdls folder of your root directory, and hit "replace" with every prompt-you should have better looking models in no time!
Special Thanks go to Superstarxalien, who helped me with two-toning Amy's model, and Jeck Jims for making these models in the first place and providing help for making two-toning Amy and Cream possible.

MINOR TEXTURE EDITS:
*The following characters have had their skin tones changed to reflect their sprites more accurately: Knuckles, Mighty, Silver.
*Amy and Cream's dresses now properly two-tone, instead of relying on an outdated transparency trick that produced off-color results with certain skincolors, most notably Skunk.
