NumberWan Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 @GPChannelThere are I just try to stay away from social activities in the web for now, but I do continue the work, though currently I have only a few hours on weekends. As for the actual works: we've checked everything within DP, but I installed the new version of GtkRadiant which doesn't want to compile lights on my new machine The old one works fine, but it's slower and prevents some things. An additional mapper+scripter would be good, but I'm pretty aware, that's not an option, as most people are either busy with their own projects or not working with maps, well. Also an additional modeller would be a great asset, as @Luckxzs seems to have disappeared. He did a wonderful job however with the model we'd wanted to add into DP, but there were a few others as well. Perhaps he would respond one day eventually. Believe or not, but the maps for Chapter I as well as all other things are complete. I don't think I have anything else to fix there, it's just needs compiling of lights. A piece of cake perhaps, but still has complications, especially if you want to make them look right. If you think you can help or you have questions, you can always PM me here.

NumberWan Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Not much to report right now. I've tried to contact @redsaurus, about implementing OJP elements into DP gameplay, which are necessary for some things in the mod to work properly, but haven't received any responses just yet For instance the new AT-AT works without any glitches in OJp only It is also a wonder, that with some of the updates, such as a newer version of GtkRadiant, which opens some of the maps in a peculiar way. I must say, that it only raises purely technical issues (which I might have to report here on the froums btw). For now everything seems to be in order with the maps themselves. I've cleaned the menus, changed the pics and gfx, as well as changed some things in the missions. Kualan, Futuza, TheWhitePhoenix and 1 other like this Link to comment

Kadson Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 @@NumberWan so, is there any news? I'm waiting for Chapter I few years, and I very interested in this! Thank you!!! Bek and dg1995 like this Link to comment
NumberWan Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 @KadsonWe decided to restrain ourselves from posting big news. In December people are usually busy preparing for Christmas, so were we last year! However during holidays I had some time to work on the map of the forest – this is the last map in the Chapter. I don't like the way our swamps and plants in the water look like. So I'm trying to fix it. But we appreciate the interest and your waiting. And we are always open for discussing things.

GPChannel Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 any news about the mod? Anything? XD Smoo likes this Link to comment
NumberWan Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Well, you might have noticed my status question about native languages. It's not big secret, that it would be nice to have subtitles in different languages. So I guess someone would eventually translate them into other languages, well, if it's worth doing that For the last 2-3 weeks I've been trying to check, how DP works with pure Jedi Academy and with other mods installed. The mod features would require OJP pre-installed, as we used some of JA engine specifics to the maximum. So with the original JA the mod would crash on certain levels. For now everything runs smoothly, and I am forming a pk3. Yes, it also takes time, becauce such a pack would include not just scripts, maps and textures, but also new models, sounds, additional shaders, effects (and gfx textures for them), as well as several other things. I had to run through it several times in order not to miss something important. Yesterday I fixed the menu files: those who made *.MENU files by themselves,do know that in could be quite a mess, given that there are dozens of files (and we changed all the menus for the game in DP).

JediDevin94 Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 This looks interesting I'll may have to give this a shot one day when ever it's finished. Great work by the way. Space Voyager and TheWhitePhoenix like this Link to comment
NumberWan Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Compiling, compiling. This is the thing that I really hate about modding JA. Interestingly the process also takes place when you finish making a big and detailed map, and also depends on the machine you are using to do it. The second aspect is that after the compile some bugs still come up and you have to fix them and then – compile the map again. While this is the problem, indeed, there were other things, which we tried to change - menus, HUD and icons for instance, Being a vivid fan of Dark Forces II, I replaced the Force icons back with the original ones from DF2, where these abilities appeared for the first time in Star Wars games. The first versions were quite pixelated, but I recreated them from scratch in a vector form. DarthStiv, TheWhitePhoenix, Smoo and 7 others like this Link to comment

Is this month starting to get interesting, or is it just me? Lancelot likes this Link to comment

NumberWan Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I don't want any haste.But the pack is indeed complete, and I've uploaded it and send to two people to try. I'll send the pack for playing to a few more people until Sunday. That would be sort of a testing My goal now is to make an exe file. And perhaps a minor mini-addition, if I'm lucky enough.

Space Voyager Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Great to read that the mod is still moving to completion. BTW, I'm sure all of you know about Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order coming in November. What are your thoughts on an already seen gameplay? IMO it looks far too console-like, clunky and led-by-the-hand and I'm much more looking forward to your mod than the new game. Naturally, I hope I'm wrong, things will be fleshed out untill release and both the mod and the new game will be worth playing. Smoo likes this Link to comment

NumberWan Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 I've already voiced my opinion on the Fallen Order in this topic. But I would say, we'll have to wait. In any case thanks for the kind words about DP. Our project is merely a mod, an addition to the game. But I think Jedi Academy stands out among many other Star Wars projects, as it is still remembered by many. And has its own loyal fans. Meanwhile I completed the cutscene – now the mod has an intro. It would be most likely included into the pack. It needs a small fix, but it's not serious. Still waiting for all the primary testers to complete the pack. Then I'll send the pack to a few other people to check it one last time. dg1995, Smoo, TheWhitePhoenix and 3 others like this Link to comment
dg1995 Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Don't want to bother you guys.(Since making mods takes a lot of time) But is there any chance that The Dark Pastime releases at the same month as Jedi Fallen Order ? TheWhitePhoenix, Smoo and GPChannel like this Link to comment

Beheaded Kamikaze Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 This mod looks awesome, especially for a singleplayer fan like me. Can't wait to try it out! Space Voyager likes this Link to comment

rexege8195 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Guys, has anyone been having problems with dismemberment in Dark Pasttimes? It works ok with autoexec.cfg in single player, and works in OpenJK after console commands. Inside DP it unfortunately doesn't work... If anyone knows how to solve it, I'd be really gratefull Link to comment

If anyone knows how to solve it, I'd be really gratefull I've never heard of anything like that, however there could be minor restrictions with a few characters (there is an older Droid model on Ord Mantell, which can't be cut into pieces per se). Most NPCs are original or newer ones, but with no dismemberment restrictions. DP uses OpenJK as a base for a smooth run. Link to comment
NumberWan Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Been working on several models, which I'll post in a few days. I guess, new spacers (based off classic JO Prisoners) are always a warm welcome. Also finished a few maps and several main characters. Still not sure, if I could pull through some ideas, as they require coding. Circa, Kessno, Srethem and 1 other like this Link to comment
