Don't be lazy. Finding new mods is the funnest part about JK2 and JKA, in my opinion. Go look through our files section and find stuff that you think would be cool to try out. PK3s are easy to install and uninstall, so its about as easy as it can get. If you limit yourself to what others use, then you're missing out on the fun part of JKA.

Wouldn't that mean it loads in normal order? If it overrides, then its loading those after the ones before it. Or does it load in reverse and it just skips things that are already loaded?

One z should suffice. If it doesn't, then that means there's something interfering in-between the assets and your file. It's not like the game checks for how many Z's you have.

The game loads PK3 files in alphabetical order, which means the asset0-3.pk3 files are loaded first, and anything that comes after that alphabetically are loaded after, and overwrite anything that is the same in the previous files. So if you have a mod that changes the skin of Tavion in a pk3 called aSkinOfTavion.pk3, it wouldn't overwrite anything because the assets are being loaded after it, thus overwriting the pk3. So, many people put the letter Z in their file name so it is loaded either last or as far down the list as possible, ensuring there are no conflicts with other mods that may change something theirs does. In my opinion, its a bad habit to get into. You should only put Z's in your file name if you know its going to cause issues with other common PK3s. Otherwise you should just name it something normal, and let the user put Z's on it if they need to. I like to keep my base folder as organized as possible, and I make sure only the pk3s with Z's are the ones that need it. Otherwise it just makes it harder to find things.

I currently don't have a Linux install right now so I can't check, but it should be fairly similar to the Steam release. What does the GOG install look like on your computer? As in file structure.

@@GPChannel if you used textures from another map, be sure to credit them.

.warnbox { background: #e3f6e5 url( images/icons/exclamation.png ) no-repeat 9px 10px; border: 1px solid #b4e3b9; color: #475949; } Post split into new topic and moved to OpenJK Discussion. @@Dark_Reaper I can't answer your question but I moved it to the right area where you may get some help.

Yeah it would be whatever the file is named. Glad you got it.

No idea. Perhaps the all-knowing @@ensiform could tell you.

But did you add it to a new shader file? And did you refresh shaders in radiant? Did you add your new shader file to the shaderlist.txt?

What does your skies.shader look like? If you're making a custom skybox, you should be adding it to a new shader file, not editing an existing one from the assets.

Right. Just making sure you know that's your main base folder for OpenJK. It reads your vanilla base folder too but anything in the openjk base folder overwrites the vanilla base folder.

Your OpenJK folder has to have a base folder, because that's where your openjk.cfg and openjk_sp.cfg are located. It should be in your User/Documents/My Games/ folder, not the folder in your GameData folder. You can put pk3s in there. It's generally best to put the bulk of your pk3s in there, so that your vanilla JKA can still launch if you ever need to use it.

I actually remember figuring it out my first playthrough, after seeing all the detonators around the map. But I had been trying to use the alt fire on them and accidentally use primary fire instead. I noticed they followed it, so I proceeded to chuck them left and right as I collected the parts I needed.

model2 is md3 only from my experience. But if your model is invisible, how will you know if it's doing what you want? model2 models also need an origin to tell where it needs to go. So maybe you have it correct but it's not where you think it is? @@Ramikad may be able to help regarding scripting. But like I said before, if a server has force powers enabled, pretty sure you can't just enable them via script.

Also, and I've explained this a few times already in other threads and statuses, but we are doing a huge amount of work behind the scenes with getting JKHub 2.0 up and running. It's been a lot of work and there's still a lot to do. So a lot of our time that we'd be spending doing file approvals and moderation are mostly being spent working on that. So yes, file approvals are slower than normal lately, and I apologize for that. But hopefully you understand why that is. I'll be sure to be a bit more proactive with it when I can.

I've been staff since 2013 and I guarantee any time a file was approved the same day it was submitted was by chance that a staff member had free time that day. We have always made it a point that file approvals get done when they get done. And though we try our best to get them approved quickly, it may not be for a couple days. Need I remind people of the jk3files days when file approvals took literally weeks, sometimes months. I'd say a couple days is an adequate time frame for volunteers to approve files for a 15 year old game.

Software Development Kit, yes. Be sure to check out our tutorial section as well.

Welcome. To be honest, modding JKA is probably easier. The pk3 file format makes it so convenient. We have the mapping program that the developers used, GTK Radiant, so you can create maps just like they did. Pakscape makes delving into pk3 files super easy. Tools that came in the SDK are huge help for many things as well. Hopefully you enjoy your time!

It should be showing the model's triangles when using that command. I'm not seeing anything in that video.
